This girl at school? She told me that gelatin is made from ground-up cow's feet and that every time you eat Jell-O there's some cow out there limping around without any feet. But I told her that I'm sure the cow is dead before they cut its feet off, right?

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Thanks Calli!

Anesthesia can be more debilitating that the actual surgery.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!

Thanks Calli! A relative had their gallbladder out, and the recovery's no joke.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Thanks for the update, Calli! Even if the recovery is rough, it sounds like it's got to be better than the amount of pain poor Amyth was in before. And at least it'll get less, and stop, and never come back.

Yup. Postpartum, as the C-section anesthesia was working its way out of my system, it was only a nurse with a bedpan in hand and lightning reflexes who saved me from barfing all over Matilda's head.

"Welcome to the world! Your Mommy and Daddy love you very much--"

"Well, your Daddy loves you, your Mommy is going to need a minute."

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Heal well and quickly, amyth!

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Thanks, Calli!
