American friends, flist, ANYONE… I need some assistance…

Medical Assistance, to be precise.

NO. Not for me, I have my pills already. It’s actually research for a fic. I just need you to give me names of over-the-counter drugs. Pain meds. Whatever you guys have available to you over there. I live in the UK so I’m not clued up on what you can or can’t buy over-the-counter. I need names…

Codeine?

Re: OTC and Me!

[kayto1]

First, let me point out that I am a terrible speller. And terrifically lazy - so although I have a dictionary sitting on my desk, it takes sooooo much effort to reach it. And then there is the opening. And the flipping of pages...gosh, I'm worn out.

Second, I'd like to switch "Stalk" for "Stock." Because I can spell both of those. And they aren't really interchangeable - but I would imagine that stalking medicine cabinets is quite easy, given their relative stationary nature.

Finally, and really most importantly, OH NO - YOU HAVE IT ALL WRONG. You have to FIC ME. I have no FIC. I am in a barren FIC idea wasteland. I keep promising myself to at least write mini-fics....but then I occupy that valuable mini-fic writing time with things like sleep, work, and reading other fic.

But I do love whumpage. Hmm...ok, maybe I can do a KIT FIC.

In fact, we could have a mini-kit-fit challenge...thinks about that....thinks it is an excellent idea.

And we should draft in the masters of whumpage - Kimonkey and Dragons!

Sadness for me on the premiere - I am being a good girlfriend and have agreed to go out to dinner with boyfriend and pals. Boyfriend is DVR'ing SPN - but it won't be the same evening I had planned (just me, good food, my boys and NO TALKING). Ah well, could be worse!

Have a FANTASTIC evening (I am pretty sure I know what you have planned!)

Hun, I know this feeling all too well. lol

OMG this is such a fantastic idea \o/ you made me squee even more! Yes of course we should so get those lovely ladies in and you and me can get ficcing. Speaking of writing. Are you doing Nano this year? *nudges you* I hope so.

Aww, thanks, hun! Hope you have a good evening, too! I’m in the UK which means I am relying on DLs to watch it. Also, slight pain but it’s better than nothing.

Anyway, not sure if you are on chat? You have yahoo? We should discuss this idea of yours in more detail! lol

I am not on chat - I am a techno neophyte and these modern fangled things defeat me. Seriously. Sad, yes. But I've accepted and moved on. I do, however, have a notifyer for when I get email, so that's something....baby steps.

The parameters I thought of are: setting up a deadline; maybe a time limit on how long you can write (like a flash fic); assigning people "KITS" randomly - having a super seekrit list of kits -from the box of band-aids to the Winchester Deluxe. Then sitting back and watching the carnage roooooollllllll in. Or slosh in, depending on the effectivity of the author's kit.

I'm game for it!

PS - yeah, Dragons has dragged me into Nano. I failed spectacularly last year BUT I wrote more during that failure than I ever had.
