Mmm, seafood and clothing!

Edit: That should read 'club' instead of 'clubs'. I miss being able to change the title.

If it can be drowned, it is technically seafood.
I don't think it'd be too bad.
Hmmm, polar bear sushi?
yeah I know. thanks, though.
I'm fine. done it before and not going to extremes.
You've never let a goldfish bowl sit for too long, I see.
But there's, like, 2 gigs of space on it.
That's closer to suffocating.
An old friend nearly died in my arms one night due to exactly that combination.
Accident, not suicide.

On a scale of 1 to antonym, that's pretty homonym.

I am giddy with anticipation.
I'm refining my unbeatable technique before I unveil it to the masses.
Is it an unbeatable technique for making millions with no money down off of real estate, or is it an unbeatable technique for living on a four-hour workweek, or is it an unbeatable technique for winning friends and making people, or is it an unbeatable technique for quadrupling your sex life?

Depends on the herb and the drug, yes.

You fucking junkie.
Dragsville. I guess I'll just stay away from herbal tea, then.
Some herbs affect the activity of these proteins, which can cause certain psych drugs to have amplified or diminished effects, or lengthened or shortened durations of effect.
If it's an herb used for flavoring like peppermint or chamomile you're generally okay. If it's an herb usually understood to have medicinal properties like valerian root, St. John's Wort, or gingko biloba, you typically want to keep your exposure low. A cup a day isn't going to cause you to go all Sirhan Sirhan on us.

Totally. I can't wait until I can wear my scarf and nice coat again. Something about the cold makes me feel more alive.
That's good to hear. The drugs I'm on are technically seizure medications. I do fancy tea, so I am pleased to hear that I don't need to be too careful about a cup of Christmas peppermint.
When it's too cold at night, at least I can wrap up in blankets. But for the summer months? Makes me want to fall asleep with my head in the freezer.
Or, in the immortal words of Homer Simpson, "Marge, can you set the oven to 'cold'?"
On the other hand, if you're taking a seizure medication for a psych condition, my Magic 8-Ball says that "All Signs Point to Valproate" which is actually not one of the drugs metabolized primarily by the P450 cytochromes. That's not to say it's okay to go hogwild on medicinal herbs, but it's just another reason not to worry too much about one or two cups of tea every once in a while. (edit: If my Magic 8-ball is right. I don't expect you to confirm or deny, what drugs you take is entirely your business.)
Moderation in all things.

Wha...What?
My pills run out tomorrow, and I have to wait for an appointment to get another prescription. I don't even know if they're working. It's really confusing.
In general, you don't want to suddenly discontinue anti-seizure medication.
It may be that the particular medication you're on is an exception. But it is probably worth your time to at least call your doctor's office and ask a nurse if it is necessary for you to taper off if you're going to run out soon. They should be able to give you a yes or no answer over the phone.
