I need to check my tagged posts more often. 

People respond to stuff and I just let it sit there!

Also, now I want donuts. Thanks, note-a-bear.

I probably should...

I try not to impose upon the workings of apartment living too much, but a big part of me picking this building/apartment was the considerable quiet. The upstairs neighbors have been fucking with my sleep for years though... Partly, I feel like I'm being unreasonable to ask for less noise--this is NYC, after all.

Welcome new followers and thank you!

Meet your geeky blogger: I’m a professor of medieval history and I post mostly about ASOIAF and the Hunger Games.

In the United States, Uniform Plumbing Code Section 409.2.2 requires an open front seat: "All water closet seats, except those within dwelling units or for private use, shall be of the open front type." One school of thought believes the gap in the open front reduces the amount of urine that lands on the seat if it is not lifted, as most of the urine will land in the gap. Another thought is that the gap exists so that the genitalia of one user cannot contact the seat and therefore possibly spread syphilis to a subsequent user if their genitals contact the same area.[citation needed] A third, and more progressive school of thought, concludes that the "U" Shape of public toilet seats can be attributed to ergonomical concerns of seated users. Toilet seats found in homes and homelike settings generally have fully circular seats with no gap (closed front).

Thanks for replying!

So-

Drink plenty of fluids

Eat afterwards (light)

No strenuous activity

How much should I eat beforehand? Just a regular sized meal or light?
