How not to get into my research study: Part 17283 of a continuing series.

1. Call me "baby."

1a. Call me "baby" again, after I already told you not to.

2. "When did you last use heroin or cocaine?" (Voice slurring, eyes drooping, head rolling and nodding) "When? It was juuuuust... before... I got... clean."

I used to have a violent reaction beyond my control to people calling me "baby" in person. It's under control now.

But I'll remember not to call you any such thing. I promise.

The reply to "When did you last use heroin or cocaine?" clearly should have been, "what time is it?" Because I suspect the time could have been measured in hours, if not minutes.

It was juuuuust... before... I got... clean.

LOL! :)

It took me years after moving to the South to stop snapping at people who called me "honey," "sweetie," or "dear." I still don't like it, but I don't take their heads off anymore.
