Agree 3am is awfully early but tell that to my cat. If I am sleeping on my back she sits on my chest and tickles my nose. If on my side, she headbutts my face and or tickles my nose. If I burry my head under the covers or pillows, she walks all over me. If I yell at her to go away and let me sleep in, she strategically jumps from my head board directly onto a full morning bladder!
@bombastinator - Zelda is more of a intellect, tough as f*** Henry Rollins than a confused, misguided and very much dead Sid Vicious.
Plus Sid was really only vicious with Nancy. Legend has it that even Freddie Mercury once put Sid in his place.
That’s not surprising, Freddie was one tough dude - if he got into a mustache fight he’d give Chuck Norris a run for his money.
There's a big difference in looking scary and being tough....that time was all about pretence and show....
I’d say Sid was lucky, otherwise he might have been remembered as Sid Toothless.

Not really. It was a hard life being a punk in the early days, constant ridicule and bullying. You had to learn how to stick up for yourself, as I am sure Freddie also learned growing up as a gay man. Sid was tough, but at 90lbs soaking wet, and that’s with his 10lb chain and padlock he wore, he just didn’t have the strength, nor the size to back it up. Not to mention he was out of his mind chemically more than he was sober.
I stand by my statement. No headspikes. Also Henry Rollins is a smart guy. He wouldn’t jump on your bladder at 3 am out of simple exuberance. To be an
sure. But not because he didn’t understand what 3am was.
I was diagnosed with fibro about 8 years ago. Never really believed it because there was no test so to speak. The Ortho that told me I had it, determined it from pressure points? I just refused to give in and accept. After moving back to Georgia from California I am a believer. The weather (rain and humidity) must make it worse.

Strategically jumping on my bladder is a sign of intelligence and not exuberance. Given the lack of opposable thumbs, she is using me as a tool to open tins of tasty morsels of mostly chicken treats for her consumption at 3am in the morning.
This was my stomping ground as the Punk movement gained traction in the UK. No difference between a Punk and anyone else really except in an artistic sense and in an unwillingness to accept the norms....mentally tough to a certain extent (but not all), physically tough no never in a million years
I got a sister with it. It’s a wack wack thing. It’s totally real alright. It got its name because if you do a biopsy you can see the altered fibrils under a microscope.
It’s also visually recognizable in a persons face. There’s sort of a week old tomato puffiness. I’ve seen enough people with it I can often tell at a glance if it’s bad.
My understanding is the best way to fight it is very carefully measured amounts of regular exercise. No too much and not too little, and the battle is very very slow. It can be beaten back though. Not all the way but it can sometimes make you hurt less. YMMV
I hate fibromyalgia too, my son has it. Our family has a lot of wacky autoimmune diseases. My mom has interstitial cystitis, as does my kid. That is such a HORRIBLE disease for a boy (really any human) but a boy to get.
I briefly had the IC but was enrolled in a sort of "experimental treatment" but it worked. My kid actually has the trifecta: fibro, IC, and migraines. Oh he was also allergic to 19 things. Those, we got rid of via allergy elimination but the rest? Well, when he started thinking about offing himself and I was thinking to myself, "That sounds totally REASONABLE, son," well, that is how I became one of the earliest caregiver moms in Tucson definitely and maybe AZ in general. It was incredibly expensive but it worked. Kid does fine, too, he's pretty much in maintenance mode ATM.
It's an evil disease. I'm fairly sure that trauma can play a role honestly (he was plenty traumatized-- not by me! But yea) as a kid. IDK. It could be genetics.
Either way, these illnesses are HORRIBLE. My mother had IC before it was a "thing" and like, she was pretty suicidal for a decade or so because docs were calling it "hysteria" and stuff. I was really mad at her as a teen, I don't blame her one bit NOW.
She's doing better. But bleugh.

I haven't noted the update on your jaw... have you given us one that I missed?
Well, boring morning. Staples like juice, some pods, some drop in coils. Only exciting thing and it's not making me jump for joy but I did go for an Axial at that 50% off sale. Bummer the ultem and Delrin caps were both out of stock. I'm not a total fan of metal with these little rdas, but maybe it'll be ok as the cap does look taller than a low profile like a Venna.
Now just waiting on the chipset for the Topside carbon dual to make a decision.

I've had a Cthulhu 1928 MTL RDA for a month now and am quite liking it ... I was mentioning it in some mtl recommendations in another thread and realized I ought to have at least a second one ... *click*.
It’s a diagnosed of ruling everything else out. At least for me. They thought I had MS, Lupus, a blood disorder, Lymes, etc. Over three years of tests, couldn’t nail it down, so they just gave up and said fibro, and a lot of spinal stuff.
I mean I had migraines for a few months then suddenly felt like I had the flu. And the migraines are much better, but the other stuff comes and goes. It ticked me off, because I was in my 30s but felt 70. Felt like I’d been robbed of my best years.
But ya know, doctors, if you’re a woman it’s all in your head.
It is kind of unsettling because my brother died of a rare blood cancer and I feel like, if I have that, these ...... will never find it until it’s too late because they’ll be too busy blowing me off.
I agree it’s a real thing, I’m just not certain if it’s what I have. There were no tests 20 some years ago. And I’m in Ohio which is not entirely part of the known universe as yet; there still may be no means of being tested here. My oldest was in high school before we could get cable.
The only reason my brother was diagnosed was because he lived in PA, close to Johns Hopkins. And it took them a bit over two years. I fractured my neck and the doctors didn’t know it for 20 years.
