Thanks, everyone. I also reached out to my mom, as she's dealt with this, and largely converging with you guys. B's all " I'll just drink lots of fluids" and I'm, ummmmm.... One DAY of minimum opioids was gastrically unpleasant for me and I drink tons of water. His dosage is like 10x mine per day. He's bigger than me, but still.

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

I have a Lexan stemmed wine glass for camping. Which is presently kept at my cubicle because camping equipment and office supplies overlap to an unnatural degree in my brain.

I don't always drink wine, but when I do, I generally drink it straight out of the bottle. Or whatever resealable containing I bought it in.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

As to wineglasses, I wouldn't care if it was stemless for a red wine, but would dislike it with a white wine and with champagne it would be NO.

It's all about your hand warmth on the glass warming the wine. Champagne is much better cold so you hold the stem of your flute.

Red wine you can drink from a tumbler. No biggie.

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.

If I'd known wine was such a big part of it, I would have wanted to go camping before now.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

How much are you really holding the glass when you're drinking at home, though?

I'm being aggressively sat on. But he's gonna be booted in a moment so I can go to market.

Just realized I'm getting on a plane in 2 weeks. Wait, what? It's the crazy season already?

Benefiber is what I've used before but I do think Citrucel is way more mild.

Grace has a cold (it's that time) and my throat hurts. I don't want to be sick.

So, one of my classes has created art lessons for the kids in our lower school. We have been working with 4th-5th grades and 2nd-3rd grades and one K-1st class. It's funny because when I walk through the lower school quad, the littles yell my name or come up and hug me. There is such a divide between upper school and lower school that all last year I remained unknown. There should be a way to bring us together to work more often.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

I have a bruise near my elbow. When I was taking the little guy out of his bath, my arm slipped and I banged it into the rim of the tub. Bleah.(the little guy was fine.)

I'm not sure how to properly explain what just transpired here, but my sister was walking down a narrow hallway, trailed by dog and cat, when the cat decided to claim her rightful place by leaping up onto the dog, traversing her back and jumping down over her head to claim her rightful place at the head of the procession.

At some point sis and I will stop crying and gasping for air from laughing so hard.
