Interesting you should say that!!!! I’m allergic to latex. It’s a super mild allergy, basically by proxy to my kiwi allergy. I can use condoms, but I need to give the surgeon a warning going in, just to be safe.

I laugh about it now, but I remember the feeling of complete disorientation as sort of funny and really scary. I’d sit for lunch and not know if I had taken it or not. It didn’t matter if I brought the box or just the pill, either way I couldn’t remember whether I’d forgotten it in the kitchen or taken it already.

Whacky is part of the hernia pack, I think.

I’m aware of a pretty extended dislike for Ed Sheeran, but I’m happy for the guy, and that’s a great engagement picture. The girl (whose last name makes her seem Ironborn, which I also like) seems super happy and there’s no “hey, here’s my ring” right in your face. I like that they kept to themselves, so…

I’d hate to have to go back to Lyrica. One of my fellow patients when I was in physical therapy was a man, and he mentioned it killed sex for him. It was a little TMI, as we both sat in the warm pool (very Coccoon of us) trying to stretch, but he said he’d never go back on it. I get it.  

That sucks that you were assaulted!!!!

Are you ok? I’ve shared those impulses for a while. It’s very freeing to be rid of them and just be able to stop at a decent place.

Lyrica is amazing, but if you need a high dosage (pregabalin, right?) it will try your brain for a good year or so. On the pros: your dreams are so amazing you expect credits to roll before waking up. Cons: sometimes you can’t really wake up even though you want to.

While it is addictive and must be handled with care, Valium is a good alternative for opioids in acute pain. I’m sorry about your injuries, I can relate. I had a herniated disc and the pain and swelling got to be so bad after dealing with it with mofo ibuprofen I was mostly paralized from the waist down and had a lot…

Lucky you

Please don’t use that spoon.

I bet they only do plastic to avoid stealing. “Oh? These are Trump spoons. I got them as a present at Mar-A-Lago”

Texture is so important in food... And everything

That looks delicious and I just ate.

Salty and like... Sea breeze. It’s good. I don’t know in this case, but luxury may be associated to rarity and difficulty in collecting, rather than actual taste. There are some “replicas” for far less money that resemble it.

Nothing spells romance like dead fish on the shore

Martha Stewart might die if she saw that.

Via expressing that he had, in fact, lived out his fantasy.

I didn’t feel this was comparable, objectively to the Weinstein case. I have nothing on Ansari, I’m not in the US and I don’t know him or his work.

I always need to talk to friends to validate my feelings or get different opinions about things. I think that has more to do with my insecurities and the fact that I never know how other people perceive me. Some of us are like that.
