Spike? It's you. It's really you! My therapist thought I was holding on to false hope, but…I knew you'd come back. You're like…you're like Gandalf the White, resurrected from the pit of the Balrog, more beautiful than ever. Oh…he's alive Frodo. He's alive.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

I am not filing the script.

Can you call him and get him to prescribe a cheaper antibiotic?

Sometimes a pharmacist will do the calling for you and talk with the doctor to come up with a cheaper alternative. Or could you call your regular doctor's office?

I'm with Ginger. See what the pharmacist can do or maybe your doctor can work something else out.

Because books.

The pharmacist should be able to change it with a couple phone calls, Aimee. It's happened to me more than once.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

Jesus, is that a brand or a generic?

Generic.

Fucking hell.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

Yeah, I don't think I have ever gotten brand name meds in the last 10 years I've taken anything.

$300 for 19 pills is ridiculous.

It's actually been a really hard year, when you stop and do the math. Eliot would cry, too, if it didn't take him seventy minutes of therapy, two cocktails, and a Sondheim medley before he can experience a human emotion through the haze of his PTSD.

If the doctor didn't run a culture on anything you coughed up, then he/she can't know for certain that a specific antibiotic is needed. If that's the case, I'd have the pharmacist request a different one.
