Please excuse the mess

I just imported my livejournal, which has resulted in a lot of duplicate entries, and, I expect, broken links, but I wanted to preserve comments & conversations on those old posts. Urf. Everything's backdated, so it shouldn't be messing up reading lists.

Flurpy sounds like something a seal is immediately upon exiting the water.

(bonjour!)

Wow, it really does! Excellent onomatopoetics. :D The word is, I believe, a coinage of Stephen Colbert from when he did his show while sick with some sort of rhino virus or flu.

For me, it describes the horrible useless mangled brain state I get from taking decongestants containing phenylephidrine hydrochloride (the far less effective thing that replaced pseudoephidrine when cooking meth from it became more of a public health issue). I've developed a hellacious juniper pollen allergy, but managed to get an antihistamine + decongestant that contains the old stuff. The downside is now I can't sleep! And I'm kind of hypomanic (probably because of the sleeplessness):P But I can breathe, and that's good. \o/

Oh my goodness - welcome and well come! So pleased to have you here - you may or may not remember me as stultiloquentia's housemate from that wonderful conversation about mountweasels and magic books; I'm here on DW much more consistently than tumblr.

Of potential interest: st_aurafina's Let's Stick Together: A Friending Meme for 2017 just kicked off yesterday, with lots of activity so far.

HI! Thank you! Yes, of course I remember you. Mountweasels and magic books! <3 I actually have some knitted slippers for you (along with some for Stulti) that I've been neglecting to mail for over a year now. #fail I wanted to make some of my Nana's shortbread to mail to you both along with them. Hoping that telling you this will make me more accountable with regard to this goal.)

I still, in theory, want to get back to dreamwidth blogging. My brain's been very stuck with both the idea and the word making business though. But it's getting better. Maybe I'll be able think up some things to blog about that aren't boring.

Thank you for the link!
