I am so sorry, Libkitty--how awful for the whole family. I hope you can get through it okay, and gain some strength from the family at the wedding.
This is my boat. They're part of my crew. No one's getting left. Best you get used to that.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame
I have 6 piercings in one ear and 3 in the other. Since I started karate and had to take them out for each session, I have stopped wearing anything but in the bottom holes.
After all the talk here, I stopped by my jewelry store today and talked with the jeweler about resetting my diamonds into a white gold ring. My "divorce ring" will cost me about $500, but I'm going to wait until after the 1st of the year to have it done.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

There are always ice baths.
Good avenue to practice your profanity.
Gods yes. Closest I've ever gotten to an ice bath was ice buckets for shin splints in high school, and I remember the sheer agony when smartasses would walk by and kick my bucket. Can't even fathom a bath.
Off to bed with me. Night, y'all.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
It was mskat's suggestion, and I swear the ice baths shortened my recovery time during krav instructor training. I bought two huge bags of ice three nights in a row and dumped them into cold water and then lowered myself into it.
Good god. Oh, the swearing, the cursing.
Coming out of it, though, I was preternaturally warm.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
Don't runners sit in ice baths after marathons?
It makes perfect sense, though it also sounds crazy.
I swear the ice baths shortened my recovery time during krav instructor training.
Wasn't that during the LA F2F? (I remember being so glad you could make it to the Prom, so I think you had something going on, and I think it was krav instructor training.)

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister
I have trouble wearing jewlry that I cannot wear constantly
This is me. I wear my wedding ring (when I'm not pregnant and swollen knuckley), small diamond studs my parents gave me in my ears, and my Cartier Love bracelet all the time and that's about it. I'm not good about switching out jewelry.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
Supposedly ice baths shorten recovery time after long runs, but I've yet to try it.
I've been recently introduced to local PBS host Huell Howser, and he is amazing. This guy manages to be possibly the stupidest person I've ever seen on television. His wonder at every single thing in creation is like that of a small child.
Here he gets so excited about a dog that eats avocados that he literally repeats it to several different people during the course of the day: [link]
