Inara: So. Would you like to lecture me on the wickedness of my ways? Book: I brought you some supper, but if you'd prefer a lecture, I've a few very catchy ones prepped. Sin and hellfire... one has lepers.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I think being on my stomach would make it worse, if I couldn't move.

Great. Dustin's match rained out after three games. So much for the great video at work experiment.

None of the people I need to call are at their desks. I'm about to go for early lunch.

And yet I would be fine if I was on my stomach, oddly. Maybe because then I wouldn't be able to see exactly how little space I had?

This is me. Add MRI tunnel. It took everything I had not to freak out like a mammal.

Because books.

Yeah, Suzi, the idea of an MRI freaks my shit out but good.

See, with an MRI, I can see daylight and know I can get right out. I can also move around a fair bit, even if I'm not allowed to. Also, I've had seven million of them. If the walls touched me, that'd be different.

Oh my god. When I got an MRI, all I could think was "coffin coffin coffin coffin." What kept me from freaking out was that I had gotten up too early that day so I was already tired, and then I was full of percocet and flexiril, which made me more tired, so I was able to close my eyes and -- not *doze,* really, but I was tired enough to not be wired and alert. Keeping my eyes closed helped me to ignore that I was in a small metal tube.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

At this point, if I ever had to have an MRI, it'd be like the scene from The Incredibles where they're trying to stuff pre-workout Mr. Incredible into the delivery tube. Not a pretty picture. Luckily enough, there are a lot of open MRI places around here if I ever need it.

Uh, what was in the can?

THIS IS WHAT I WANT TO KNOW. Dude, everyone knows that if you have to use something aerosol to kill a spider, you use Extra-Super hold AquaNet and laminate the thing. And then make someone else dispose of it. In an ideal world, someone else deals with the spiders anyway.

But you don't light your lighter while doing it. That would cause a pretty big boom, too.

I never use aeresol; I usually use a cleaning spray like Fantastik.
