Gabapentin and excedrin

Flannery needs Excedrin Headache #357...

Oddly enough, in my two professional careers, I had both attended MLA conventions and written about gabapentin (Neurontin, Parke-Davis)! I'm glad to see that the initial 3,000 mg dose didn't kill poor Christina: the world NEEDS more English professors like her (unless of course her department is French & Italian). Actually, the story had me thinking of a different class of drugs from anticonvulsants: Facetime reads like a JBEdwards story on steroids. Yet another wild & fun romp--this one even wilder than usual. Thanks yet again, JB.

A very special day in any girl's life: when she experiences her first kiss and her first father-brother threesome! The Ecstasy in the punch seems to have worked even better than the gabapentin they gave to the keynote speaker at the MLA, several stories back (although she had a fun night too).
This story is great fun; it's sexy too. I especially enjoyed the heroine/narrator's personality, including her fairly strong—but decidedly quirky—ethical principles. I do feel sorry for her uncle, though. He got left out of the action entirely. Perhaps there will be a Part 3? Fine with me, if so.

Not much good news. Went to my neuropathist on Wednesday for a series of tests. 'Yes', I have nerve damage and 'no', the doctor looking at the results couldn't understand why. Essentially, they ran an escalating electric current from various spots on my lower leg and foot to toes to see how I responded. I highly recommend this as a means of torture.
On the downside, I am becoming resistant to my pain medication, so life sucks coming and going. My psychiatrist upped my Gabapentin from 300 Mg to 400 Mg [3x a day] and it isn't helping. Woot? I'd kill for a decent night's sleep.
Thank you for asking. I really wish I had better news.

Kate and I want to thank AnotherChapter, ThatNewGuy and the other anonymous commentator for defending us so well. We will keep the anonymous comment down below on how our narrative was tedious and distracting, just as we keep most negative comments - but not all. Some are so damn offensive and have little, if any redeeming value.
Maybe the anonymous commentator misunderstood what we were saying when we wrote that we removed some of our earlier stories because the comments were too caustic. When comments call my wife a whore and physically threaten us or 'anyone who cheats', we think were feeding something dangerous. Our 'Jake's Tale' was a story that ended with the husband forgiving and reconciling with a wife who had an affair - too many of the comments could only be considered outlandish and evil. So, we removed the story.
Anon wrote, We know that someone asked for aspirin, but took Excedrin (with a capital E), three, instead of two. WTF? But you don't bother to tell us how much money the sucker sister pissed away to her addict brother, $200, $20,000? Yes, both were written on purpose. The use of naming Excedrin in the scene was to paint a vision for the reader's mind's eye. Something for the reader to help grasp visually the two people standing in the room trying to decide the best course of action. And we purposely didn't name the amount the sister gave her brother, although we did state it was all her funds, because we wanted the reader to question how much it could be (Hitchcock's McGuffin).
This past weekend the Wall Street Journal had an article explaining how many of the young girls putting their bodies on TikToK and other social media are having emotional issues because anonymous (or even friends) comment on any real or perceived flaws of those bodies. I guess we Literotica LW writers can relate. A story gets written in an effort to entertain and anyone with a terminal and keyboard can slam the writer because they don't like the plot, the outcome, etc. Pretty soon all there will be here is one or two decent writers and a whole lot of garbage. In other words, useful criticism is more than welcome, but keep the caustic comments to yourself.
Thanks to all who enjoyed 'Chuck and Sammi' and took the time to say so. All the best,
Bill
