Oh yeah!!!!!!!!!!!

I found our Mystery man- Gilles Marini.....he was samantha's neighbor in the Sex and the City movie :D

have you seen this movie? Especially the shower scene at the end....words cannot describe how large his-um-'thumbs' are. That sucker is HUGE!! Screw the baby's arm image-it's at least a toddler!!!

Speaking of sucker.......

They report that female short-nosed fruit bats (Cynopterus sphinx) licked their mate's penis during 14 of 20 observed copulations. Matings that involved licking lasted significantly longer than those that did not.

Possible functions for this behaviour include stimulation to prolong copulation and assist fertilization; mate guarding; antibacterial effects; and the detection of chemicals assisting in mate choice.

The authors say their observations could suggest a possible adaptive benefit for the activity in this species.

We frequent the zoo and my son loves the bat house (I find it foul and vomitous in it's odor). Anyway, I've never seen one bat licking another, but I frequently see a male bat licking himself-WTF does that mean? Is he prepping himself to last longer no matter what the female wants? That just seems sneaky!

I'm going to write her but I can hardly remember what her actual username is.

Oh, right, it's Ranger. :lol:

Sills, we are babysitting that evil Spike from next door.....I think he just barfed a little on the carpet behind me. I am ignoring it, for the moment. :huh: Soon he will be sent home and to his kennel. Kit likes to torture him, which pleases me. Weez is exHAUSTed from Dog Park today, and her new friends.

And, Spike is throwing off a VERY HIGH STINK, gawd knows what, very feral-smelling and musty and muddy-ish. Maybe even POOP-ish. :gag:

Um.....you know who has been too quiet is........Jan-it. WHERE ARE YOU, LADY??? I have seen you popping in wif funny bits here and there but....not enough. What's going on? I miss yer wackiness. :)

Nikk.........how is Tel? Glad DC had a good time on the Ripper Walk last night. Sounds PHUN!!!!!! even something the Lady Who Hates Tourist Attractions (moi) would love. I really did enjoy my solo Paul Revere walk in Boston.....is that the name of it, Bevel?

well, clearly, I am lonely this eve and miss my Sills. :lol: Where in hell IS everyone?

I miss Julie, I miss Ptaum, I miss Bunnie, and.......who else do I miss? Shroomie is not posting enough. Where is Pads??? Up to her curly hair in boxes?

In WHAT STATE is our Judith???

random, bored facts:

I have very bad posture lately.

My flat-iron died, Kit knocked it on the floor and it broke, I happened to mention this to a friend two days ago, and said friend gave me her almost brand-new Sharper Image straightener today. :) Blessings.

My house is a mess. I need ALL sills to report for duty for a cleaning party. :unsure: Oh, we're also going to rip up the carpets and install new floors.

Carpet shamPOO is next week, I'm perty sure. <_<

I rescued a TINY wicked terrier dog named Fifi on my street today, running all the way down the OTHER end of the street. She lives almost exactly ACROSS the street from me, yet in five years, I've never seen her, to my recall. :blink: The re-unitement with owner was fab. :) And quite necessary, as Fifi was terrorizing the CRAP outta Weezee.

I have the cabin reserved this weekend, and am not going. :blink:

That's all I got.

On November 5, 1605, Guy Fawkes was apprehended while preparing to blow up the parliament buildings whilst the King and all the members of parliament were present.

We don't do anything around here. I see it as a British thing.

I was working outside on taming wild vegetation, but freezing rain caused me to come inside for the moment.

It's a company that is a supplier to the automotive industry. They're crazy busy, so .....lots of overtime! I think about a half hour drive from here. It'll be 2nd shift, but he'll be working days til he's trained. Pay is somewhat less than he was getting, but definitely doable. And highest pay attainable in the future looks extremely good! :D

It's time to PARTY!!!!

      I’m terrified it’s too late for me😭

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @Cathijean90! I went 13 years from the first laboratory evidence of celiac disease onset before I was diagnosed. But there were symptoms of celiac disease many years before that like a lot of gas. The first laboratory evidence was a rejected Red Cross blood donation because of elevated liver enzymes. They assume you have hepatitis if your liver enzymes are elevated. But I was checked for all varieties of hepatitis and that wasn't it. Liver enzymes continued to slowly creep up for another 13 years and my PCP tested me for a lot of stuff and it was all negative. He ran out of ideas. By that time, iron stores were dropping as was albumin and total protein. Finally, I took it upon myself to schedule an appointment with a GI doc and the first thing he did was test me for celiac disease. I was positive of course. After three months of gluten free eating the liver enzymes were back in normal range. That was back in about 1992. Your story and mine are more typical than not. I think the average time to diagnosis from the onset of symptoms and initial investigation into causes for symptom is about 10 years. Things are improving as there is more general awareness in the medical community about celiac disease than there used to be years ago. The risk of small bowel lymphoma in the celiac population is 4x that of the general population. That's the bad news is.  The good news is, it's still pretty rare as a whole. Yes, absolutely! You can expect substantial healing even after all these years if you begin to observe a strict gluten free diet. Take heart! But I have one question. What exactly did the paperwork from 15 years ago say about your having celiac disease? Was it a test result? Was it an official diagnosis? Can you share the specifics please? If you have any celiac blood antibody test results could you post them, along with the reference ranges for each test? Did you have an endoscopy/biopsy to confirm the blood test results?

      I’m terrified it’s too late for me😭

      By Cathijean90 · Posted

      I’ve just learned that I had been diagnosed with celiac and didn’t even know. I found it on paperwork from 15 years ago. No idea how this was missed by every doctor I’ve seen after the fact. I’m sitting here in tears because I have really awful symptoms that have been pushed off for years onto other medical conditions. My teeth are now ruined from vomiting, I have horrible rashes on my hands, I’ve lost a lot of weight, I’m always in pain, I haven’t had a period in about 8-9 months. I’m so scared. I have children and I saw it can cause cancer, infertility, heart and liver problems😭 I’ve been in my room crying for the last 20minutes praying. This going untreated for so long has me feeling like I’m ruined and it’s going to take me away from my babies. I found this site googling and I don’t know really what has me posting this besides wanting to hear from others that went a long time with symptoms but still didn’t know to quit gluten. I’m quitting today, I won’t touch gluten ever again and I’m making an appointment somewhere to get checked for everything that could be damaged. Is this an automatic sentence for cancer and heart/liver damage after all these symptoms and years? Is there still a good chance that quitting gluten and being proactive from here on out that I’ll be okay? That I could still heal myself and possibly have more children? Has anyone had it left untreated for this amount of time and not had cancer, heart, fertility issues or liver problems that couldn’t be fixed? I’m sure I sound insane but my anxiety is through the roof. I don’t wanna die 😭 I don’t want something taking me from my babies. I’d gladly take anyone’s advice or hear your story of how long you had it before being diagnosed and if you’re still okay?

      diagnostic testing variance

      By trents · Posted

      Genetic testing cannot be used to diagnose celiac disease but it can be used to rule it out and also to establish the potential to develop celiac disease. About 40% of the general population has the genetic potential to develop celiac disease but only about 1% actually develop it. To develop celiac disease when you have the genetic potential also requires some kind of trigger to turn the latent genes "on", as it were. The trigger can be a lot of things and is the big mystery component of the celiac disease puzzle at this point in time with regard to the state of our knowledge.  Your IGA serum score would seem to indicate you are not IGA deficient and your tTG-IGA score looks to be in the normal range but in the future please include the reference ranges for negative vs. positive because different labs used different reference ranges. There is no industry standard.

      diagnostic testing variance

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Since nearly 40% of the population have the genes for celiac disease, but only ~1% end up getting it, a genetic test will only tell you that it is possible that you could one day get celiac disease, it would not be able to tell whether you currently have it or not.

      so much to it.  the genetic testing will help if i don’t have it right? If theres no gene found then I definitely don’t have celiac?  I guess genetic testing, plus ruling out h.pylori, plus gluten challenge will be a good way to confirm yes or no for celiac.
