The human body can function for a surprisingly long time on snatches of sleep. I know this, and I really don't feel any particular need to confirm it first-hand. Sort of wondering what they'd do if someone took sleeping pills and wouldn't wake up, though.

It feels almost perverse to be having a birthday after everything. First one without Vision. First one since the world ended. I shouldn't be alive - does that make it a celebration or a cruel reminder? Guess it's whatever one I focus on more. Or maybe it's just both.

It's always going to be like this. Always.

They’ve just found a gene for shyness. They would have found it earlier, but it was hiding behind a couple of other genes.

Tomorrow is what I refer to as It's Cool To Still Be Alive (Nice Try, Universe, I'm Indesctructible) Day, or as I believe the youth call it, The Oldening. If I ran a bar I'd do half price drinks or something, but that doesn't work so well with medical. Half price colonoscopies, anyone? Not quite as appealing.

	The truth comes out, you're in league with the frogs. It makes sense - must be hard to hold a needle steady with frog hands. They'd need a human servant. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Can't you just make a shock bracelet that'll prompt the frogs to get off you? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	machinesrus 2019-09-22 08:27 pm UTC (link)
	Probably, it's just more work. Especially if I want it to not shock me as well. ~~How long did the lepr Oh why am I asking you, you don't remember.~~ I don't think anything's been more than a few days so far. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Maybe it's appealing for the over 50 set? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	It would probably be more popular if we charged like the public health system does. Or the private health system, for that matter. So far though, half of nothing isn't exactly a huge saving. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	There may allegedly be some kind of barbecue themed gathering on the roof. No medical procedures. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Assuming there are no needles I may make an appearance to this alleged bbq. Needles and bbq is not a good theme. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	No needles. It's not that kind of gathering. (I assume.) (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
