Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Dana I too am maxed out on Wellbutrin already (and it already made drinking not feel good years ago).

Today would have been my mom’s birthday. Her sister asked to have a zoom, so I zoomed with my aunt, siblings, and cousin—I don’t think I’d spoken to him in…15 years? He’s married now (they had a very small wedding). Then to honor my mother, I went thrift shopping. (Sadly she did not seem to be with me or have any pull, as I only bought two things).

Also the weird prickly sunburn-esque feeling on my side has not gone away. It’s not really worse (though maybe a bit more area?) and still doesn’t LOOK any different but I’m heavily side-eyeing. wtf body. Now also my lip and just under my lip has the same tingling feeling….but I’m hoping that’s from the overly spicy ramen I tried to eat for dinner (I managed about five bites and had to give up!)

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Right??? So annoying. On the plus side, since moving to the east coast, my lifetime dislike of seltzer water has done a 180 since I discovered Polar! So I drink a lot of that instead of wine. Now, I do need to start throwing parties because I’ve got 16 cases of great wine in my basement (all of my California winery shipments).

Polar is made right in Worcester!

Wait how is polar so different from other seltzers?

Also, yay quick video visit with doctor (well, NP who I'd never met but whatever) who will prescribe me medication in case it is shingles so that I can go get it ASAP if the telltale rash breaks out (hasn't yet but likely would soon). Bleh.

Laura, thanks for your note.

Ugh, meara, I'm sorry. I hope it doesn't!

Polar Half and Half is a favorite (half lemon half grapefruit).

Our wings are not tired.

I haven't tried that one. Sounds yum.

Polar is magic and I couldn’t tell ya how they make it differently or what sets it apart! It’s just that it tastes delicious to me in a way bubbly water never ever has.

Meara that sounds a lot like shingles. I had tingles and an unsettled stomach for a week before the horrid pain and rash showed up.

Yes, we do plan on being there for Kristin and Drew. We'll make a plan.

I live north of Old Saybrook, so you wouldn't be driving by me in Hartford to get there, but if you fly in, you're welcome to stay/ride with me. If not, I'll see you there.
