This was the "errant boldness" of which I spoke, and the reason Will finds this pic absolutely hysterical. <_<

I still think it may be one of the band members. . . . ...

:lol:

It went completely over me head before! Now all I can see is that hand!! :lol:

Ever seen that commercial for Stanley Steemer with the dog Toby?

Yes!!! So funny!

That's MY lucky number! My locker combination in HS was 27-17-7. And the address of the first house we bought was 2722. It is also in my social security number. And if you take the last name I was born with, replace each letter with the number of it's position in the alphabet, then add the digits of those numbers, you get 27. Don't even get me started on 11. :lol:

............gee..........sounds kinda like Rain Man, huh?

:lol: Lisa, very Rain Man-ish!

Speaking of favorite cereals growing up, I just decided I really miss cereal for breakfast, or a snack...haven't had it for YEARS with all the different food intolerances. I want Grape Nuts!!!!

JEWEL-LY!!!!!!!!! Arnie did a scoot! :o OMG - methinks he either needs the glands expressed, OR *gasp* he has worms............

Weezee missed her butt squeeze on account'a her mom being stuck in bed for two days. This will happen tomorrow, methinks.....

He just got groomed yesterday, cut REALLY short, and had his butt squeezed ...dunno if the stray hairs are irritating the area or what.

OMG. . . . . I was dared to request a friendship with a male name that I had to just arbitrarily think up. So, I thought up "Russel Smythe", punched him in, and there were several. I picked the Canadian Russel, and sent the friend request. Incredible, but he accepted.

So, now I know when Russ is heading out to play hockey, when he's taking back his library books, how his afternoon home from work is going. . . . ..... :huh::lol:

Haven't sent him any drinks or hugs as yet, nor have I poked nor smacked him... ..

Think you should all ask to be his friend, as well. :lol:

He's very likely celiac.....who isn't, after all?

OMG, hysterical :lol::lol: .......is Russel of age, and is he cute?!?!

I hear ya on the slipping into classy skin, I am so out of my element to in those situations.

Sometimes people hardly know how often I usually fart. It's never loud. Occassionally, I'll fart frequently, but they rarely notice. :P

Can you do it in less than 20 words? :lol:

Someone's been takin' her Omega-3!!!

I just don't know how to slip into a classy skin. . . .... :rolleyes:

Why don't you just wear what you've got on in yer av?? . . . or did you wear that at the last classy event that you went to?? . . . in which case, just change it up a bit and add a shawl and different shoes.

Tom, meant to answer your Facebook question earlier....your statuses will remain on your profile page, on your home page they are changed out as the news feed updates/rolls over..........does that make sense?

Oh and Emily if you don't have insurance you either pay out of pocket or you are SOL and don't get to receive medical care. One trip to the ER cost me over a thousand buckaroos (and absolutely nothing was accomplished <_< ). They do have various programs to help with the non-insured/low income...filled out the papers for my ER visit and was denied.

Oy, too worn out for much thinking/posting, but I'll give it a go. [i think it took an hour . ...pretty slow brain day]

Too many posts worth commenting on, but brain not up for it.

That Mayo is like an assembly line. Big-ass campus, no idea how many bldgs.

Go to that end of the bldg for appt check-in.

Back to this end for Scheduling, in a big room that looks and acts like a DMV office. "Mr. Murphy to window 7"

Up a floor or 2 for GI dept.

Window 3 this time.

Phorms.

Wait.

Pretty good doc, btw. Best GI I've ever met, certainly.

He mentioned HLA typing & when I simply mentioned DQ2/DQ8 he says "are you an engineer?" da noiv!! All celiacs w/ any online time should know DQ2/DQ8.

He didn't know if it'll be both alpha & beta. :(

(I don't have much desire to know my DQs anyway - too much research needed there)

Back to Scheduling for a piece of paper. Down a floor for Radiology & Blood Lab. Wait here, wait there, 6 vials, wait here & there & there, smocked up, do chest x-ray for some reason.

Back to the DMV . ....errrrrrrr .. . . Scheduling.

They were trying to get an endoscopy, colonoscopy, MRI/MRCP, & some other stuff all in tomorrow, but GI is full so no -oscopies (oscopii?) this time.

At least half & maybe 90% of all this is useless, but wtf, checkin' everything.

<me brain just wants to go into standby mode>

*******

A conversation w/ mom:

Me "Then a u-turn at 136th." [We'd already crossed 82nd, 90th, 10-somethin']

Mom "*I* [from "you-turn" of course] turn at 1:36? Won't we be late?"

"A U-turn, ya know, reversing direction. At 136th St."

"To the right?"

"Uhhhhhhh . ...<wondering why I even need to be in this conv> .. ..to the left, mom"

**************

Lisa!!!! 20 words?!!! Quite impressive .. . .I can't try tonight tho. Maybe last week it'd've been worth a shot.

Julily works ok duddinit? ;)

Ahhh yes, thx, it does make sense, but wouldn't w/out having played around in the Book at a work pc. This mobile one is SOOOOOOO abbrev.!!!!!!!

Open Original Shared Link

I think it'll show the mobile site on a pc.

My goal of having a home pc up by Sat didn't take into acct this trip <doi!> .. . :( .. ..w/in a few days of being back I'll do it tho.

Forgot what else .. .. ..being a patient patient wears me out.

curlyfries Contributor
I think I"ll just start making friend requests to random strangers :lol: Pad my numbers

You can add Lily Dean.........she's a cute little chinchilla with her own facebook account!!..........Lives with DD.

Hi sillies!!

Quick poop in.....no time ....busy day <_< (would prefer to sleep :rolleyes: )

Alarm didn't go off this morn....NO one got up in time....everyone feels like this -------> :angry:

....back later!!! :)

Good Morning, Psillies!

I do recall this line of boobage discussion. Now moi.....I'd choose a tummy tuck

Oh, gawd. . . ...me, as well. I would love to have all my stomach flab pushed up to my boob area, and just trapped there. Just a simple rearranging of phat, really. :rolleyes:

OMG, hysterical .......is Russel of age, and is he cute?!?!

Um. . .. . .actually, methinks he may have cancelled our friendship. :unsure::rolleyes: He no longer seems to be in my collection of Friends, though he sat proudly there for a couple of months.

He probably got to thinking, "Now, this just doesn't feel right. Don't know this woman. . ... .... what if I am just the subject of some lame, humiliating dare? An arbitrary name they've thought up, had a few good laughs over?? They break into squeals of laughter when they read all about what I'm 'currently doing right now' - - that I've just taken out the garbage, that my constipation has subsided... .. .They're probably JUST LAUGHING AT ME!! Well, I'll show you - - I'm NO LONGER your friend!"

And thus, the end of the Russell Smythe chapter.

Think I'll request his Friendship again. :lol::lol:

Why don't you just wear what you've got on in yer av?? . . . or did you wear that at the last classy event that you went to?? . . . in which case, just change it up a bit and add a shawl and different shoes.

YES! I could slip into a classy skin by slipping into my tiger and leopard skins. . . .....it's a plan worth considering.

Now, real class would also entail William following me around the hall or ballroom all evening, hand affixed to my boob..... .

Oh and Emily if you don't have insurance you either pay out of pocket or you are SOL and don't get to receive medical care. One trip to the ER cost me over a thousand buckaroos (and absolutely nothing was accomplished ). They do have various programs to help with the non-insured/low income...filled out the papers for my ER visit and was denied.

OMG. . . this just gets worse and worse....how do self-employed or laid-off, ill Americans get medical care?? I suppose many don't. . . .... :(:o

Glad things are happening at Mayo, Ptaoughmghmnuss!

Jeez.....is yer mom out drivin' the roads very often?? Yikes. . .. ..! :huh:;)

Really Em, the sad truth is that many Americans can't afford to get sick. It's outrageously expensive for an individual or an individual family to buy health insurance. :(

Phorgot to report The Ripper's phabulous ponderable question from yesterday: We were out walking the dogs, and were passing by a construction site. As we went by a porta-potty, Jack suddenly asked, "So, Mom. . . . . if you were going to the bathroom in one of those and your cellphone dropped into the hole, would you fish it out?"

OMG, that is SOOOOOO gross. . .. .... .

I said that I didn't know, but probably . .. . :gagface:... . would try to toilet-paper-glove it . .. .....

BARPPPPPHHHHH..... .. ....

jerseyangel Proficient

I'd consider it a total loss.....no way I would reach in to get it--let alone clean a cell phone enough after that to put up next to me phace. :P

((((((SHUDDER)))))). . . ......I'm just not sure. I'd be thinking of the avoidable cost of a new phone (when I got my phone, I asked what the price was for a replacement handpiece, and it was some ridiculous amount).....and all my millions of contact numbers . . .....

Ewwwwwwwwww, it's just so gross.... . .....

If there were enough TP in there to totally wrap my hand, like a goalie's trapper or catcher's mitt .. . . .......

New coronation in . ...16 posts is it????

jerseyangel Proficient

But Em-m-m-m..........Assuming you could use TP and lift it out of the can.....what will you then do with this....package??? :huh:

Put it in yer purse? Front seat of the car ?.....and once home--where to attempt to clean it? Kitchen sink is out....

Say it phell phace down--you'd need toothpicks er sumphin to clean out the little holes and between the buttons. A rather laboUr intensive phoo situation when you really think about it. ;):lol:

tom Contributor

Who's among the un-ascensioned anyway??

Bunnie & the Lisas & the Reluctants (Judithly & Julily) ???? P

tom Contributor

I suppose it's too soon to hear from Amanda isn't it .. .. ..

Praying all went as well as possible :wub:

Darn210 Enthusiast

Emily . . . Thomn and Paddee have got it covered . . . couldn't agree more . . . not touchin' that fone wif a 10 foot poo-pickin' toothpick pole.

From me mum:

If you had purchased $1,000 of shares in Delta Airlines one year ago, you would have $49.00 today.

If you had purchased $1,000 of shares in AIG one year ago, you would have $33.00 today.

If you had purchased $1,000 of shares in Lehman Brothers one year ago, you would have $0.00 today.

BUT, if you had purchased $1,000 worth of beer one year ago, drank all the beer, then turned in the aluminum cans for recycling refunds, you would have received $214.00.

Based on the above, the best current investment plan is to drink heavily and recycle. It is called the 401-Keg.

A recent study found that the average American walks about 900 miles a year. Another study found that Americans drink, on average, 22 gallons of alcohol a year. That means that, on average, Americans get about 41 miles to the gallon!

Makes you proud to be an American!

"So, Mom. . . . . if you were going to the bathroom in one of those and your cellphone dropped into the hole, would you fish it out?"

I would report that a thief/miscreant had ripped it out of my hand as s/he ran by and flung it into a nearby port-a-potty. When asked to describe said miscreant I would come up with someone whom I really disliked and had a high probability of being in the neighborhood. I would ask that as punishment, that person be required to fish out my phone and recover the lost data.

      Looked this up.   Yes, forgiveness and bearing with people is people is vital.

      I must admit I've been on both sides.  Before my diagnosis, and in my ignorance, I thought all the special diets we see around us today were unnecessary and people were making a big fuss over nothing.  There is a shop in the small town where I live that sells organic and gluten free food and I used to see people walking in and buying things and thought they were being a bit ridiculous spending extra money on what I thought was a fad.  Yet since my diagnosis that shop has been a real lifesaver.  I guess It is hard for people to see the necessity of all this extra effort if they haven't experienced celiac disease personally, or observed the way gluten affects someone they love.  Honestly, I have wondered at times if I would have been as understanding had my husband been diagnosed with coeliac disease instead of me. He has been great.   It must be incredibly difficult if your close friends and family aren't supporting you.  I have read some awful stories from coeliacs where friends and families have not just been unsupportive, but go out of their way to continue serving up gluten.   In such extreme cases, where harm is actually being done, serious thought needs to be taken about removing oneself from harm's way.  That all said, I find that the world is now so full of people struggling with autoimmune illnesses now, allergies and intolerances, that people are definitely becoming more attuned to things.    Word is getting out there. In 2022 a long-running popular TV series in the UK, Doc Martin, ended with a final case: a patient being diagnosed with coeliac disease.  I don't know if anyone saw it but I was so heartened by that episode, that celiac disease was given centre stage for the last ever programme. The patient in question had been suffering from a horrible rash which turned out to be dermatitis herpetiformis. He also had anemia, felt faint and was plain exhausted.  It would have been good education to anyone watching who didn't know about the disease and they would have been left in no doubt about its seriousness and the need to follow a strict gluten-free diet.  I thought to myself as it ended, well, now, that's another piece in our campaign to make coeliac disease better understood!

      I understand your frustration about socializing while having celiac disease. I also have allergies to nuts, dairy, all forms of gluten including oats, strawberries and MSG. I get anxiety while grocery shopping and really take my time to read all labels. I always carry a magnifying glass with me wherever I go to read labels. Many products are labelled Gluten Free but contain Oats, and apparently this is becoming more common. I almost bought some gluten free flour but read that it contained oats. A certain percentage of Celiacs have this complication. I can’t help feeling offended and excluded when others act like I am being “high maintenance”. I am becoming better at being an advocate for myself.  I have had diverticulitis 3 times and each time hospitalized-once, the attending nurse didn’t know what celiac means-she had to research...  If others around me make comments I try to enlighten them, those who don’t get it are not my friends anymore. Be very careful about cross-contamination. I was sick recently for 10 days after a meal was contaminated while I was on holiday. If servers say they have gluten free buns or bread, ask if they use a toaster specifically reserved for gluten-free, or don’t chance it. On a positive note, I didn’t find out I had Celiac Disease until I was 60. Eating a gluten free diet means no more terrible headaches, hives, rashes, intestinal bloating and irregularity, Gastro Intestinal Reflux….when I follow a strict diet and mostly always eat at home, I feel great! I also weeded out “friends” who weren’t worth being around.
