Hmm..with duress, I will work on that issue. If I can e-mail a pic to someone, could they work to post this pic? Computers and I don't understand each other. And, I am please to do what I do. Karen so wonderfully found the best, most glamours goose that I have ever seen.

My father always said to me "the expectation is always greater than the realization". In this case, how true.

I will work on the realization. :rolleyes:

email it to me. You know where I live :lol::P:ph34r:

Ahh... so I'm not alone in this? Tom Cruise and those guys do nothing for me. Brad Pitt was GORGEOUS in Legends of the Fall, but then he wore off.

Too 'clean cut'

I have to add the guy that plays Kovac in ER (dreamy!)

I may have to dye my hair darker ... I usually go very blonde in the summer, but darken a bit in the winter because I'm so pale. But with the antibiotics I'm on for the next couple years :ph34r: , I'm not allowed to go in the sun without #35 .... Brunette, wouldn't that throw everyone for a loop?!!

Hey Carla!! (been following your progress on OMG BTW )

I too have been thinking of going darker - dunno if my pale skin can take it though :blink:

I agree, we need a picture of the Goose.
Definitely!!!

My father always said to me "the expectation is always greater than the realization".

:lol::lol::lol: ..I love that saying!!!

Makes me think of christmas day!! :D

That's so COOL! Bring on the kilts! i'd wear one if it didn't remind me so much of 12 years of wearing a very ugly uniform in Catholic school!

Is it that time again?..so soon, where I try and follow what's going on through varying clips ('cos I don't get ''Lost'' on my cheap channel package :( )

You can leave your goose up as your avatar and put your picture up on your personal page.

Bev, I've met someone like that one time, with that natural almost white hair. She was from Holland, and was hard to hate because she was nice, too. She spoke something like 7 languages ... I was in Mexico studying Spanish, my second language, and she was learning Spanish through English, her second language!

Thanks for the blonde comment, I've always been blonde. This color was natural pre-children, now I have to pay for it. :P

Hey Carla!! (been following your progress on OMG BTW )

Right now mine is dark on the underneath ... a dark brown, but I wanted more of a red color ... then I have some more darker lowlights than either of my pics. I need a more current picture up there, but there all on hubby's computer.

Thanks for following my progress. The meds are kicking in and killing off the bad guys ... and making me feel REALLY bad!! I sent out an email to everyone with the details, you know those on the OMG thread wanted details!!! I posted some general info on the board, so if you want details PM or email me.

My grandfather's parents came over from England. I don't know if that's why I have this pale skin ... but what I can't really figure out is even though it's pale, I get a nice tan, though not really dark like some get. My grandfather was always really tan, but he lived in Florida. With his icy blue eyes (with stick straight eyelashes that I've seen on other English people) I would expect he probably had the pale skin, too.

Mmmmm, must be an English thing!! My eyelashes are distinctly straight :lol: ..and although I tan ok I go very pale in the winter <_<

Hope you start to feel better soon Carla, - it's been a long 'ole ride for you :(

I always thought the straight eyelashes were an English thing!! :lol: Seems like most of the people I've met from England had them.

OMG - truer words could not be spoken! what is it with that???? Tom doesn't even register on the radar - - and Brad, totally gone after Legends............. :lol:

Quietly raises her hand........errr ME.....kilts are creepy. :ph34r:

What?????? :lol: Well maybe you jsut need to attend a Scottish games situation to really see why we love the kilts......... ;)

No, they're just the three women I'd pick if someone said I had to wake up looking like someone else (Penelope Cruz #1) :P

or Audrey Hepburn :rolleyes:

My choice for Blondes would be:

OMG, so in agreement iwth all of this except Charlize - - - she doesn't do a thing for me plus she seems rather full of herself. Oh, adn I have girl crushes on Penelope and Robin Wright Penn...... :lol:

Ahem....we need a picture of the Goose. We've waited long enough :P

Yes, a picture of The Goose! :)

If I HAD to wake up looking like someone else!! Miss Iceland? I didn't know there were brunettes in Iceland?!! Brunette must be the "new blonde"!!!

Hi Carla! Nice to see you here! Hey, did you guys notice, that if there's ever any mention of hair, Carla shows up??? :lol: Okay. for the record, Iceland is loaded with fair-skinned Brunettes, you sillies!

...and the wind.

haaaaaaaa! girls in kilts, Richard should enjoy that!

DingoGirl Enthusiast

and WHERE IS richard? doesn't he start goofing off at work again today? :P

Oh, you know who else is really hot? Sam Sheppard. OMG. and also, there is a British actor whom I love, he played Mr. what's-his-name in the A&E version of Jane Eyre - - Carla will know.

can't think who else. more later. must shampoo carpets today. I would like to post a photo of my newlly-finished living room here, but all instructions on doing that thing where you post and hit the little globe thing and all of that rubbish have failed me. :wacko: oh wait, I will check this book that I have.

Mtndog Collaborator

Carla- HANG IN THERE! I'm sure it's GOT to be tough. I can't imagine what all those drugs are dong to you. :(

And yes- you are truly a good blonde. I also thought of Cameron Diaz and Nicole Kidman (blonde/red/strawberry blonde?) and Renee Zellwgger (she's so cute and perky!).

Nikki- Me too- chubby knees :ph34r:

I thought of Jude Law too- not so much in real life, but in Cold Mmountain, oh my! :rolleyes:

SusieQ- Girl crushes...that's so funny. I have them too...Angelina, Penelope and Salma. I was over a VERY conservative, sort of shy friend's house one night with her and her hubby and we were grilling him about who his virtual girlfriend would be. He said Halle Berry and she, after 3 glasses of wine said she'd cheat on her hubby with halle Berry. We were DYING laughing!

OK...I have a question about skin and eyelashes. I'm English,

Irish and French but everyone thinks I look Italian. My hair is really dark (naturally anyway :P) and my skin gets REALLY DARK in the sun but I'm pretty pale in winter. Weirdest thing was when I got my genetic test results back, my celiac gene was the Mediterranean one.??????

Bev - you MUST be Italian! I, too, am English, Irish and French, also Scottish and 1/4 Norwegian. I can no longer tan AT ALL - - I am not kidding, could sit at the equator in a bikini (yikes! banish the thought! :o ) and come back with only a nice, surface layer of crispy cancer but no tan. :huh: so - are you quite sure of your genetic lineage?

wait - must read Nikki's post - - - -

Nope, Nikki, that's the wrong guy.....lemme see if I can find him. ;)

OMG SWOON indeed! :wub: I am deeply in love with Colin Firth. He is, in fact, being suggested (my idea!) as the actor to play the husband in the film to be made about one of my dear friend's lives.....true story! The woman for whom I occasionally work, Linda Caine, wrote a book that was a bestseller in England. As we speak Linda is in London meeting with the screenwriter for the movie (we are so excited!) and he has some important connections......they are talking of Ralph Fiennes as the shrink and Kate Winslet to play Linda. :rolleyes: BTW I highly recommend this book to any of you who've suffered with depression or any mental ills, I read it in the darkest period of my life, and threw up a prayer to God that I would love to meet this woman......well, not only did I MEET her, she is one of my dearest friends, and in fact, I have a key to her house. ;) oh yeah, her two dogs are my girls' boyfriends. :)

okay, sorry to get serious on our nutty thread. Back to lunacy! :P

      I was diagnosed with coeliac disease a couple of years ago [ish]. I love my food and a variety of food, so it's been hard, as it is with everyone. I try and ensure everything I eat doesn't contain gluten, but occasionally I think something must have got through that has gluten in. Mainly I know because I have to dash to the loo, but recently I have noticed that I feel nauseous after possibly being glutened. I think the thing that I have got better at is knowing what to do when I feel wiped out after a gluten 'episode'. I drink loads of water, and have just started drinking peppermint tea. I also have rehydration powders to drink. I don't feel like eating much, but eventually feel like I need to eat. Gluten free flapjacks, or gluten free cereal, or a small gluten free kids meal are my go to. I am retired, so luckily I can rest, sometimes even going to bed when nothing else works. So I feel that I am getting better at knowing how to try and get back on track. I am also trying to stick to a simpler menu and eat mostly at home so that I can be more confident about what I am eating. THANKS TO THOSE WHO REPLIED ABOUT THE NAUSEA .

      Thanks. Since the back and forth and promises of review and general stalling went on for more than six months, the credit company will no longer investigate. They have a cutoff of maybe six months.
    • Scott Adams
      Is this the same restaurant? https://www.facebook.com/TheHappyTartFallsChurch/ Is it too late to take this up with your credit card company? Normally you have a few months to do a chargeback with them. It seems very odd that they are taking this approach with someone who is likely to be a regular customer--not a good business-minded way of handling things!
    • Scott Adams
      Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months. Some common food intolerance issues are dairy/casein, eggs, corn, oats, and soy. The good news is that after your gut heals (for most people who are 100% gluten-free this will take several months to two years) you may be able to slowly add some these items back into your diet after the damaged villi heal. This article may be helpful: The most common nutrient deficiencies associated with celiac disease that may lead to testing for the condition include iron, vitamin D, folate (vitamin B9), vitamin B12, calcium, zinc, and magnesium.  Unfortunately many doctors, including my own doctor at the time, don't do extensive follow up testing for a broad range of nutrient deficiencies, nor recommend that those just diagnosed with celiac disease take a broad spectrum vitamin/mineral supplement, which would greatly benefit most, if not all, newly diagnosed celiacs. Because of this it took me decades to overcome a few long-standing issues I had that were associated with gluten ataxia, for example numbness and tingling in my feet, and muscle knots--especially in my shoulders an neck. Only long term extensive supplementation has helped me to resolve these issues.
