I'm guess woo nurse is doing home drug admin because no one wants her in a place of medical operation....

Is Woo Woo Nurse licensed to medicate herself?

She has a machine at home for that.

I'm going to reiterate what Burrell said earlier that Woo Woo nurse does not sound as out of place in Los Angeles. Most of the things she has said seem to match the usual LA crazy. I doubt it would limit her ability to be hired if she is a nurse.

That oolong sounds delicious. I am a huge oolong fan these days. ita, there's a couple tea places in WLA/Culver City area that may interest you. One is the Conservatory of Tea and Coffee in CC on Washington, and the other is a store in the Westfield/formerly Fox Hills Mall by Slauson and Sepulveda. Both sell loose leaf teas. Bird Pick in particular comes to mind because they have a whole display of something like 10+ fruit tisanes.

There's also a bird pick in Pasadena.

I really like Bird Pick! I had a delicious lavender tea latte there a few weeks ago.

I am sick with a code. A code that has left me with a stuffy node.

So I'm watching Talking Dead (by mistake, but it's kind of interesting). They do have a weird insert that takes the zombie apocalypse seriously, and they mention the rule of three, that you can't survive more than:

• 3 minutes without air
• 3 hours without shelter
• 3 days without water
• 3 weeks without food

I'm assuming the air rule is "brain without" and not breath holding, because I sure can't. But the criterion that really confuses me is the shelter one. Doesn't it need way more qualification? The same guy went on to get more confusing by explaining there are different kinds of shelter, like something to wrap around your arm like a bandage, or getting out of the elements, so what good is that as a tip for the end of civilization?

Most of the things she has said seem to match the usual LA crazy

Seriously? I am glad I don't get out much--the worst I was handling was friends of friends (SOs, worse yet, so one has to nod nicely..) telling me that broccoli would cure my migraines.

Thanks for those recommendations, Burrell! I will check those places out--they look like they might be on my way home from work.

Shame the Slauson/Sepulveda exit (at least northbound) has disappeared from the 405. Do you reckon it'd be easier to get off early or late? The exit signs split the difference and do both.

For the mall I usually get off at Jefferson, then turn on Slauson. Or you can take the 405 to the 90E, which basically ends at Slauson and dumps you right by the mall.

In LA or other mild climates I'd think you could survive quite a long while like shelter if it was during a period free of rain (which in LA is lots of the time). Assuming lack of shelter did not get you eaten by Zombies. I knew one guy who saved most of his salary and slept on Redondo beach during the spring and summer and much of the fall in LA during the 80s. He rented during the winter. He must have some alternative to Beach when during his beach season. From what I gather, much of the time the nights were warm, and he did not even wrap the blanket around him. (There were showers at the beach he could use - and he bicycled to work and kept his clothes at work). At any rate from what you say the "Talking Dead" folks would have defined the blanket he lay down on as "shelter" - but that is really stretching things.

The guy ultimately used his savings to start a liquor store in Redondo Beach which was fairly successful.
