Shir thanks for the frequent check-ins.
Zoe: Preacher, don't the Bible have some pretty specific things to say about killing? Book: Quite specific. It is, however, somewhat fuzzier on the subject of kneecaps.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Steph, have you had any insomnia prior to Zep? I agree with -t that the dosing of a frying pan to the head seems tough.

Steph, have you had any insomnia prior to Zep?
Once in a while. But it seems pretty closely linked to increasing the dose, since it's happened with all 3 doses now. If it keeps following the pattern, it'll stop after a couple of weeks. Fingers crossed!

It's more of an art than a science.

Insomnia is just ugh. Mine got bad during menopause and I'm still dealing with it. I'm on nightly trazadone (as is my dog when there is fireworks!!) which knocks me out but doesn't keep me asleep. But the occasional gummy also does the trick. Just not as consistently. Sometimes I wonder if I should switch from trazadone to just gummies?

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Insomnia is indeed ugh and I hate that we are all expected to just keep doing our jobs or whatever when we are so damn tired. It's not even that frequent for me, but it feels like the effects never really go away
Now imagining Tim rigging up the infamous drill press to precisely bonk Tep in the head...
