Morning
Anyone had shingles?
What do they start like?
I'm a hypochondriac so please tread carefully. I am susceptible to the merest suggestion.

That's a shame really
you seem so nice. Still, if this lief has taught me anything it's that nice people often die while total cunts seem to hang around forever.

I'm absolutely lovely
So it's only fitting that I die tragically young.
I'm sneezing and shivering now. I think it's The Consumption.
Get me a bathchair and some cross-stitch to occupy me.
Tell my suitors and callers that I'm indisposed.

Is that true?
My aunty is allergic to wasps. She keeps getting stung but not dying. Anyone else would be dead by now. A nice person.

Yup, I wasn't there, but that's what I hear.
There are a couple of stories about what exactly happened, but that one seems to be the most consistant. The website stuff is all 100% true, properly fucked me up, the site took me 2 years to make (it was an on-going project), and I can't look at it now, but can't take it down eaither. I just make sure it's running.

It set off his second heart-attack, and as he was in cyprus, the ambulance took 2 hours to arrive.

Still, he managed to see his dreams come true out there, for the most part.
Not everything, but his olive trees and the opening of a good friend's shop.

It's a shame that some bastard cut the trees down two months later.

They named a street after him.

Oh god sorry for being flippant
I'm not sorry for wishing the wasps would do for my aunty though. On predictive text, aunty is cunty

Heh, didn't even notice you being flippent =)
They're fucking huge, they're only found in north cyprus (as far as I can tell), about the size of a thumb with two body-sections.

My boss had them and he's a cunt.
I like to think the two are connected.

My mrs had them in her teens
tingly sensations all over one side of the body might be an indicator too.

They can be pretty bad, give you permanent nerve damage and possibly blindness.

No, that will just cause you unbearable pain

That reminds me of a colleague's description of giving birth.
It went something like this: "I was on gas and air. That didn't make the pain any less, but it did make it hilarious."

While looking at how to turn MST into fast-release, I found out about booty-bopping.
Although I'm not one to turn down an enema, I couldn't convince my flatmates to administer it.

Disclaimer: I wish for it to be known that I do not enjoy things going up my bottom, except prehaps a cheeky finger or tounge during fornication.
I do not look down upon... those who are shaking and crying due to lack of opiats, and are just looking for that sweet-sweet first high, and are chasing it to the point of considering getting a job in a second-rate phamacey so they can say 'oh dear, I dont know what happened, I thought those boxes were empty, I just chucked them out' and then going through the bins at midnight. They are people just as much as me and you..... but it just isn't my cup of tea.

I love labradors, well, I love the majority of dogs, but if someone told me to "Think of a dog", labrador would be the first one that comes into my head. They're dog-dogs, if that makes sense.

In this book....
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Curious_Incident_of_the_Dog_in_the_Night-time

They say dogs only have three emotions "Excited", "Sad", "happy", "Angry", and that's why they're the best animal. (I think that's right).

It's one of my favorite books.
