Sarah, your poor wee one! Large hivey things?! NO ONE deserves such yucky stuff, especially our Ez...

Ok, guys... catch up with ya later. Possibly at 3 am.

Oh, I hope not......

So HEINOUS, my wisdom teef grew in, and they're crooked on the bottom now. My dad would not be happy......

Oh, gawd.....well, Sophie's dad will not be happy should this transpire....nor her mom....

I will be helping two to four kids read, grades K through 3, once a week. I am so excited.

Great stuff, Susie!

Does she have to wear a retainer for a while?

Yep. Alex, from your story I have decided to rivet it to her upper and lower palette....

Hallo Sillies- Pooping in after a long day in NYC (Lyme doc) because once again, I found something that will crack (most) of you up......especially our mad scientist.

YOO HOO JESS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Where are you?

It's Open Original Shared Link Someone gave my doc this Open Original Shared Link. Some of the other ones are hilarious (Open Original Shared Link and Open Original Shared Link would make lovely gifts.

I swear I'm getting my nieces stuffed germs!

Alex- Must remember to tell you about last weekend- was thinking of you while we were at the Cape!

Sarah- Just read your post- enough is enough! You guys need a break! Hope Ez is OK.

[DingoGirl]

OMG!!!!!! :lol:

"adorable little spirochete"

now THAT nearly made me spit out me absinthe.......... [yes, I have JUST poured myself a glass!!!!!!!!!!!!!]

and......the pimples........and bad breath........... gahhhhhhhh!

going to try and clean my closet now. Patti!!!!!!! where is yer closet lady?

I take full custody (am Primary Care Giver) of Kissey starting Saturday. Can't wait.

Well.........new shows tonight - -is it a new Grey's? I know The Office is new - yay - - what else?

[Ridgewalker]

Sarah! OMG - another infection for Ez? So sorry. but OMG - PLEEZ call the doctor the INSTANT any kind of wretched rash or weird sore appears......my friend's niece had a near-death reaction to an antibiotic...I won't go into detail here but.....she was not expected to live, and did.

Don't worry, I will! In fact, I'm going to keep him naked as much as possible, just so if anything starts, I can catch it fast.

Awesome news on the tutoring gig!

Sarah- Just read your post- enough is enough! You guys need a break! Hope Ez is OK.

Yeah we do. Lately, I've been worrying that it's not going to let up, that he's going to turn into that kid from As Good As It Gets. Plus a thousand other worries like, how am I going to go back to school when my child gets sick every other week? For that matter, how's he going to do in school next year if this keeps up?

All I can do is pray that the longer he's gluten-free, the healthier he'll be. That's how it worked for Lucas.

On the upside, I was finally able to get him qualified for NC's children's insurance. This is a massive financial relief-- we are disastrously behind in bills. The medical costs have been horrible.

But now that we have this (practically free) insurance for the kids, I'm wondering if I should see if our family doc will give us a referral to an allergist for Ezra. I dunno. What do you guys think?

[tom]

All right, Patti! ...And a woman, too...this is a bonus in a GP, IMHO.

Even I agree w/ this. It's like there's more built-in compassion.

Arrrrrrrgh Sarah - strep too!? Bah!

Susie, the reading thing sounds great. I can imagine, if I tried it, goofing around w/ them too much & getting in trouble w/ the teacher.

I had to chase the janitor down the hall one day during lunch hour because I realized I threw my retainer in the garbage and he had just collected it and combined it with the garbage from a few other classes. I had to search though the yucky garbage but I did find it.

Ewwwwww!!

I can't be the only one who finds My Name is Earl irresistible can I? (Ehhhh I *did* read that this season isn't as good as prev tho)

[nikki-uk]

...Hi Sillies!!!!!!!!!

Just a drive by......haven't caught up ......no time

Taking Alan to the airport TODAY for his Orlando trip!!!!!!!!!!

Yours - slightly anxious Mum

[Jestgar]

Good morning all. It's 3:30 in the morning and I'm starting my day out right with a big cup of coffee and an exercise video on the tv. (They do work if you play them while your on the computer, right?) I don't know why they use those 20 year old, 80 pound skinny girls to do these. I'd be much more inspired by a 40 yo slightly dumpy woman with great balance. This one is particularly bad. This girls thighs can't be much bigger than my upper arms. oh well. maybe I'll have muffins for breakfast to counteract the trauma.

Sending good thoughts for traveling and sick kids.

when I was queen I banned all sickness....Patti???

[elye]

Good Morning, Sillies......

YAY!! Today Al heads to The Sunshine State!! And Mickey!!

Don't worry, I will! In fact, I'm going to keep him naked as much as possible, just so if anything starts, I can catch it fast.

I often find myself saying this about DH when people ask about our plans for the weekend....

Hope Ez is better today, Sarah!

.

Susie, the reading thing sounds great. I can imagine, if I tried it, goofing around w/ them too much & getting in trouble w/ the teacher.

Yes, me too.......

I can't be the only one who finds My Name is Earl irresistible can I? (Ehhhh I *did* read that this season isn't as good as prev tho)

A fantastic show. I try not to miss it, and I guffaw throughout. Ptaum, you must try to find Corner Gas in your TV lineup, or online. Funnier and more clever, even, than MNIE.

Morning Sillies Happy Friday!!!!

I got the sandals on! I painted my toe nails and yipes...shaved the legs and today I wore my spring long skirt and new top and my new huge sandals! I am sooo taller now!

Have a safe trip to Orlando, Nikki's son!!!

[Mtndog]

OMGAWD- much excitement today! Ezra's birthday suit rash watch, traveling Alan's and Emily's nekkid DH (as Homer Simpson would say, "With sexy results" :lol: ! Oh and Amanda's new sandals- lucky girl. It's back to the high 40's and raining here. Good for hibernating bears like me who aren't quite ready.......yesterday in New York it hit 75. I wanted to rip my socks off but well, you know how clean the sidewalks are

Sarah- I sincerely hope that Ezra is OK (I love that name by the way-it's great!).

Emily- please make sure your husband doesn't get, well you know how he forgets where he is sometimes? Please remind him he is no longer a male stripper and if he's going to strut about, he does have to do it at home or......

FACE THE SPANISH INQUISITION!

And you know, no one EVER expects them

May Alan travel safely and have a great trip!!!!!!!!

I am alarmed by the wanton drinking of absinthe in this forum- aren't you only supposed to visit the Green Faerie occasionally?

And Jess WTH? Your day begins at 3:30 am?? I think I saw 3:30 am once in college and it was because I was still up. I think I turn into a pumpkin from midnight to 7 am. By 8 I'm a tolerable zucchini and by 9 I'm pretty much your average Bev.

[jerseyangel]

I can't be the only one who finds My Name is Earl irresistible can I? (Ehhhh I *did* read that this season isn't as good as prev tho)

I really like that show, too. You're right, this year is not as good--my favs are the "Cops" episodes

Taking Alan to the airport TODAY for his Orlando trip!!!!!!!!!!

Yours - slightly anxious Mum

I'm just so excited for A--try not to be too nervous, Nikki.

As reported here, I did my toes last week--wore sandles yesterday and my tootsies are very happy Had to shave legs, too 'cause of the doctor visit

You sound very spring-y, Amanda

[jerseyangel]

I was also up at 3AM--could not get back to sleep Turned on QVC--worked like a charm

[blueeyedmanda]

Alright Sillies! I can count on you today.

My DJ is winning and today is the last day for this round.

I have waited for spring like a child waits for Santa....

[jerseyangel]

I just voted, Amanda

[blueeyedmanda]

Thanks Patti I owe you!

This guy does a lot of cancer fund-raising. So I am all for that

I don't do it on purpose

But I did get to watch my favorite news show:World News Now. It's got a cult following of insomniacs. I really like the accordion player with The World News Polka

And they drank the cat poop coffee

What--did I miss something? The next time I'm up at that hour, I'm checking this out.

[DingoGirl]

Yeah we do. Lately, I've been worrying that it's not going to let up, that he's going to turn into that kid from As Good As It Gets.

No, he won't, because he has a hyper-vigilant mother who keeps and eye out, plus all kinds of smart pholks on this forum. You WILL get to bottom of it!

when I was queen I banned all sickness....Patti???

IS Patti the queen? This reign just seems so......nebulous.

Um......I have watched Corner Gas three or four times.....I don't get it! Cute, but very subtle - no guffaws for me.......

I got the sandals on! I painted my toe nails and yipes...shaved the legs and today I wore my spring long skirt and new top and my new huge sandals! I am sooo taller now!

Yay! Not to ruin your joy or anything, but, I keep my toenails painted all year......and wear flip-flops nearly year-round as well.....

California, harrumph.

All right....why am I the only one who has telephone line problems here? Wasn't it just yesterday that I found myself here at the public library computers, checking my emails and this forum? I think it's the fourth time this year we've had to call the wondrous cartel Bell Canada, and have them come to repair our outside phone line. GRRRRRRRRR........

Please remind him he is no longer a male stripper and if he's going to strut about, he does have to do it at home or......

Gawd, I am constantly having to remind him of this....

Had to shave legs, too 'cause of the doctor visit

Patti, please tell me that you did not include sparkles.

I was also up at 3AM--could not get back to sleep Turned on QVC--worked like a charm

QVC? Qu'est-ce que c'est?

My DJ is winning and today is the last day for this round.

There are rounds? Like, preliminaries? He's going state by state? Watch out for Florida....

Well, there are interesting library types sitting around me, typing feverishly. No surprise...the Great Bell Canada likely has their lines dead, as well.......

QVC--a shopping channel that I have been known to indulge, er pick up the occasional necessary item

But, to answer Susie's question...I refrained last night

[blueeyedmanda]

This is just the Rochester Dj's, they are doing kind of like a NBA March Maddness thing, so they started with 4 regions, each region had 8 teams. Now they are down to 4 regions with 4 match-ups. If he wins he will take on this morning show from a different station. He is neck in neck with the girl DJ, been like that all week. He is still in the lead as we speak. I hope he wins. He got pretty far.

Now here is the background on him, if you google his name you will see the sad story behind why he now works at my station.

To make a summary, he worked at a station in that area for 21 years at like a Pop station, I guess you call it that. In the fall, a new company bought that station and 3 others in Rochester, he along with 3 other long time DJ's lost their jobs. So in a shuffling of people at the station I listen to, he was hired not even a month ago....this is the same company who bought his other station and fired him. So its kind of sad he had to lose his job and all his time, but now he is back and he is still very popular. Anyway if you google it, it caused quite a stir of emotions up in Roc. Which I can understand.

But, to answer Susie's question...I refrained last night

good girl!

.. . . .bleh . . .. ..

:(

I think this is what I get for being reckless "testing" chocolate & cookies.

No physical symptoms, just mental.

I should probably try to slog thru something productive - maybe clearing the desk area enough to set up the pc. Ugh, that'll require decisions on where to put stuff .....

Feeling a little bit better than earlier. Hopefully edging into having a little fun w/ replies this afternoon.
