In the land of the compulsively horizontal

First off, hello and a flappy hand-wave to everyone here from [livejournal.com profile] belenen's friending frenzy! I have to say, that post has achieved the miraculous: it got me to spend more time in LJ in two days than I've spent in any given two months since 2014 or so. I've got that lobe of my brain back that scours experiences for stuff to write about, something I've rather missed.

Which makes it unfortunate that I spent my holiday weekend doing precisely fuck-all, plus or minus a laundry load or two. Equally unfortunately, my three days of slack took the form of lounging/bent double against my stately imperial cushion wad in the guest bedroom, alternately doing the aforementioned LJ stuff and wondering what the Hades they've done to Kingdom of Loathing in my absence, which means my lower back is no longer speaking to me. I took matters in my own hands and asked [livejournal.com profile] rain_herself for one of her Flexeril tablets, a handy tool for both alleviating body pain and inducing drooling stares into the middle distance. This is great and all, but I realized I might have made a mistake when I remembered that I was also breaking out into hives due to the heat. Usually I treat those with allergy meds. Usually.

[livejournal.com profile] rain_herself spotted the problem, too. "Oooh, what happens if you take Benadryl after a dose of Flexeril?" she asked, a little too enthusiastically. "Would you ever wake up? Or would you just, like, sleep until you die? Or...OR...would they cancel each other out and leave you hypermanic all night, and if they do CAN I VIDEOTAPE IT?" My wife, ladies and gentlemen. To have and hold and all that.

And having typed that, the Flesklorillllmrfl (as people call it once it's kicked in) is now doing its thing, so I shall surrender the keyboard for the night. Happy hunting, comrades. Also, mrrrflglrmblrf.

Just make sure she posts the video to youtube so we can all watch.

Sounds like it's turning out to be a good night after all.

*giggles* Your relationship with [livejournal.com profile] rain_herself (at least, the part illustrated here) reminds me of my favorite kinds of connections, where we are so confident of each others' love that we can blurt things like that without hurting anyone's feelings.

:) I love it, too. It really takes a lot to trip one or the other's relationship insecurities with stuff like that. This is a conversation we have on the regular, f'r instance, often in response to earworms or puns:

"Gawd. I hate you so muuuuuuch...."
"I hate you too, sweetie. <3"

PM/email me if you need any tips on the KoL changes. Yeah, they've been updating a LOT. Don't even get me started on the "challenge paths."
