Mad? why so?

Because you are brilliant and have your own personal lab..... two traits of a mad scientist in popular literature.


Either that, or you are a superhero.  :headbang2:

Can't you guys even just imagine it?

Forget practicality, or your experience....can you just....imagine?

It's there. It always was.

Superhero? far from it.

I'm sane. But I have my own personal values, which frequently conflict with the majority of NTs. I'm not so much immoral, more amoral. At least in their moral systems.

Boils down to 'give someone the benefit of the doubt until proven or given good evidence to do otherwise' 'treat a lady well'  and 'treat sex offenders, and those responsible for cruelty to animals with brutal prejudice involving grossly excessive physical violence'
Beyond the pale. Way, way beyond the pale.

Those are some good morals.  :thumbup:

The election is over.  13 hours, 46 voters.  BORING


Did I miss a vote?

Local ad valorem taxes renewals.  They all passed.

SO, you were working to get this done?

Ghandi: Live as if you were to die tomorrow. Learn as if you were to live forever.

The end result of life's daily pain and suffering, trials and failures, tears and laughter, readings and listenings is an accumulation of wisdom in its purest form.

My bosses told me today that I have been doing an amazing job lately (as if there was a change!  I am just me and I do what I can to help things along. They are just not smart enough to judge me, most of the time.)  and took me off of "Final Warning"  status.

SO I still have a job.

Nope, poll commissioners are neutral.  Just check the ID, have them sign the voter registration book, write their name in the poll booklet, re-set the voting machine, repeat.  We had 3 commissioners this time because they knew it would be low turn-out.  It's a relatively effortless way to earn $200.

I voted all the renewals down.

I slept well last night, whilst not expecting to. Whatever was in that syringe I found did a damn good job of rendering me unconscious.

First thing upon waking, I was taken to collect my prescriptions, and the instant I got back home, had myself a nice big, relaxing shot of morphine sulfate. Well, several shots actually, I'm just about to boot up my third one. Feeling all warm and glowy, relaxed as can be, my eyelids are drooping and I'm just on the verge of nodding out.

Due to the fact my old man had to be there whilst the carers for the bitch..err..my mother..came round I couldn't get a lift to the usual pharmacy I go to, and had to go to the one at the end of my road which is closer, as without already being ON my painkillers I cannot walk to the usual one without unbearable pain, if my leg will function at all, as I need to be on a pretty large dose of one of if not THE most powerfully effective muscle relaxants used in outpatient medicine (ignoring of course the paralytic type of muscle relaxant, those acting like curare)


And for shot no.3, I didn't need to resort to using my tourniquet(s), needle slipped into the chosen vein without argument, and registered instantly without any effort to find and properly enter a vein.

*Lestat sits back in his chair, lights a cigarette, with a smile on his face and makes a little appreciative sigh of delight; as he feels the prickling of histamine release slowly crawling up his right arm, the force of the rush making him catch his breath, and that lovely sensation of tasting the drug as the circulation makes it from arm to the blood supply of his tongue*
Beyond the pale. Way, way beyond the pale.

Have yet again confirmed that the ancient greeks ruined everything. -_-

Oh, the good thing was learning that things might have been very different...and thus I have new possibilities to ponder.

Oh, the rig was in the liter jug that I use for putting cold drinks in when I want a drink with ice, as it holds a lot of liquid, with room for ice, so I can just plonk a straw in and slurp away; or that gets used when we have roast chicken, for the gravy, etc. etc.

It had been used for a load of pink lemonade w/ice, and I guess I just stuck my rig in there and forgot about it until a day or two later after I'd finished my drink.

Why?



My something good is that I just got back from seeing my GP. And I got a rather good haul out of him today.

I was due for (and got) my regular rx yesterday, couldn't see the doc though as my guy doesn't work tuesdays, his day off. Found out that I'd been kept on the same dose (60mg twice a day) of XR morphine, but rather than taking 4 30s, I was given this week, 2 60s per day. Told him I preferred it the other way as it gives me some freedom to make adjustments in timing etc., as my pain level isn't always the same, sometimes better, sometimes worse.

So not only did he just offer (to my great surprise) an extra few 10s a  day on top of that, but put me back on the 30s, said I could get those next week when i pick my stuff up, but then offered again, 'but I could give you some 30s if you like' (of course, I'm hardly going to say no to that, am I now :P), and gave me some oxycodone instant release caps too.

Didn't insist on my returning the 60mg morph pills I was already given yesterday either xD
