He got me the extended relief version. It seems to be helping. I&#8217;ll give the\u00a0nasal spray another try in an hour or so; maybe staying off it for 12 or more hours would keep me from getting the bounceback effect.<\/font><\/div>\n<div><font face=\"Verdana, Geneva, Arial, Sans-serif\" color=\"#ff99cc\" size=\"2\"><\/font>\u00a0<\/div>\n<div><font face=\"Verdana, Geneva, Arial, Sans-serif\" color=\"#ff99cc\" size=\"2\">I&#8217;ve entered a little original fic in the battle thread on the Lunaescence forums. Votes are best three out of five. I&#8217;ve got two out of two votes so far, and I keep going back to see who else has voted. I&#8217;d like to see all the votes no matter who wins; if there&#8217;s something about my fic that needs to be changed or altered, I want to know. Now, this doesn&#8217;t mean I&#8217;m asking those of you who read this blog for votes. If you&#8217;re not a member at Lunaescence, then wait until after the battle is over to become one. I&#8217;m just interested in what others think of my story.<\/font><\/div>\n<div><font face=\"Verdana, Geneva, Arial, Sans-serif\" color=\"#ff99cc\" size=\"2\"><\/font>\u00a0<\/div>\n<div><font face=\"Verdana, Geneva, Arial, Sans-serif\" color=\"#ff99cc\" size=\"2\">I&#8217;ve noticed that I&#8217;ve started to wear some of the keys on my keyboard down again. I have less than half an &quot;H&quot; left, and roughly 2\/3 of &quot;N&quot;. &quot;L&quot; is beginning to wear at one end, too. The space bar is smoothing out where I rest my right thumb. I wonder if you can get letter sticker to replace the ones that are wearing off. It would be a cool thing. I&#8217;ll have to look around and see what&#8217;s available at the scrapbooking places. I do have some letter stickers, but they are blue, not white, and this keyboard is black. <\/font><\/div>\n<div><font face=\"Verdana, Geneva, Arial, Sans-serif\" color=\"#ff99cc\" size=\"2\"><\/font>\u00a0<\/div>\n<div><font face=\"Verdana, Geneva, Arial, Sans-serif\" color=\"#ff99cc\" size=\"2\">More later as the muse moves.<\/font><\/div>\n<div><font face=\"Verdana\" color=\"#ff99cc\" size=\"2\"><\/font>\u00a0<\/div>\n<div><font face=\"Verdana\" color=\"#ff99cc\" size=\"2\">ETA: The battle is over and I am victorious!! <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/rte\/emoticons\/smile_shades.gif\" \/><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/rte\/emoticons\/smile_teeth.gif\" \/><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/rte\/emoticons\/smile_wink.gif\" \/>\u00a0LOL! Three votes for me. I think the main problem with the other fic was that it was confusing to the reader. Mine was odd&#8230; but understandable.
