As taboo as it is on the boards, I seek medical advice.
See, tomorrow is the last day I’m allowed in my apartment and most of that day will be spent cleaning and packing. Thus being, I’ll more or less be ‘unplugged’ from the SDMB and I’m scared.
The first symptoms of withdrawal occurred today when I packed up my coffee maker–I friggin’ need my caffiene [sub]it is the spice. It is the spice that puts my mind in motion.[/sub] But there is a cafe down the street, so I can at least walk 300 yards to the dealer and ask for a quick hit of cafe mocha. The latest symptons occurred this past hour when I think I hallucinated. The movers came today to pick up all my furniture ‘n’ stuff, and just a half an hour ago I thought I saw tumbleweed rolling through the kitchen and that famous whisle from Clint Eastwood westerns in my ear.

Watch out for the babies on the ceiling, man, 'cause once their heads start turning there’s no coming back.
I took a couple of days off the dope once. It was enough to make me say, “Boy, that was a dumb move.”
Most posters are able to disconnect from the boards with no serious problems. A handful of posters do experience mild to serious side effects; these include hallucinations; feelings of pers!cution or paranoia; and pr!gressive vision loss.

Hey, everybody, Tripler’s not gonna be on the boards for awhile! Now we can all talk about him behind his back! !
Holy crap, I think I made it for a day by getting high off Windex and ammonia fumes. But yeah, tonight I stay in base billeting, and all I have left is to pack up this computer.
So, here goes. . . I’ll just reach down and pull out the cor
