So interesting! I've just been taking ibuprofen willy-nilly.
My whole life just flashed before my eyes! I gotta get me a life!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
I loathed that fuzzy, floaty feeling that I had on opioids for three days after my wisdom tooth extraction, and found that Advil was actually more effective in treating my pain at the level it had dropped to by day 4. Of course, if I'd been dealing with something as bad as a broken leg I might have been a lot more okay with floating off into the metaphorical opium den.

Is aspirin a good option for those of us whose stomachs don't mind?

not your mom's socks.
Now I need zucchini waffles. And msbelle to come fix my life.
And I have these advance copies of something I wrote (Kat I hear you from all the way over here should I send one) and I am circling them like they might sting me because this is getting nervewrackingly scary. So they are in a pile in the middle of the room. But they exist also which is amazing and at some point I will sit with them and just maybe breathe.
I've been drawing and it has been wonderful, and maybe that is what I'll be when I grow up.
Also for the first time in my entire life I have a convention I will never return to. Cannot get into it further.
this has been an irregular venting session but really what I need are zucchini waffles.

I'm sorry for whatever has made you down on that convention, hippocampus. That sucks, no matter what the story. I hope it's something that can at least be addressed, if not forgiven/forgotten/repaired.
And yay new work!
I only get the floaty feeling right when the stuff kicks in, really, maybe after that it's just addressing my pain? (Or maybe if I were on more...) But I continue to hope they'll give me some more at my visit, even if not that many. But who knows. Now that they're cracking down on use and on giving so many—doctor google found some prescribing directions at various other hospitals that said to send people home with no more than 20. I think I used 20 the first couple days!

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
We are down to two names for our new black kitten: Cisco Ramon or Batman. I loves me some Cisco, but the idea of saying "hi, Batman" every time I walk by the kitty is extremely tempting. EXTREMELY.

This is how we got a Murderbiscuit.

Herding cats for fun
Name him Batman and tell everyone his secret identity is Cisco Ramon instead of Bruce Wayne. That'll put some fava beans into the Joker's hash.

Ooh. I like Katerina's suggestion!!

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Are there pictures, Scrappy!
Hi hippocampus! Good wishes for all the venting subjects.
