Only in my dreams. Nothing but grade A coffee in my travel mug. EVER. A crash is imminent, however Robert Goulet is in the hospital awaiting a lung transplant :o (I kid you not), so my afternoon slumber will be undisturbed. actually it is a co-workers birthday, and it was is my turn to supply the cake - a NAMASTE chocolate cake with sinful dark chocolate frosting....refueling to begin in 1 hour.

I did see that Bob is in the hospital! :huh: So yes, your afternoons seem quite safe for a while....but now we must appoint another LIMPSY ambassador.....how about Bridget Bardot?

Is the cake quite good? Haven't had one yet.....have not had cake in nearly two years. :angry:

(only in my dreams in Patti's snack kitchen :lol:)

No time to be cheerful. I was just checking in on the puppy. Glad Annie's OK.

If I had time I would do a huge rant on stupid bosses. If everyone would just roll your eyes at my boss for me I'm sure he'll feel it.

:wacko: We could use this eye roll - different directions at the same time.

<_< But this one is probably most appropriate for the situation.

After we get the green guy emoticon worked out, we'll shoot for the eye roll emoticon :whatever!:

Richard, so sorry to hear about RG. I noticed that it said he was coming back from NY . . . was that a personal visit to your house then?

:blink:

...and now we get to the REAL reason your mojo has left town!

NO CAKE IN TWO YEARS????! :blink::o It's no wonder your subconscious is forced to raid Patti's Uber-pantry. Forget LIMPSY - SOMEBODY GET SUSIE A CAKE! STAT!!

This cake is soooo rich (with the homemade frosting = a tub of cool whip melted with 6 squares of semi-sweet chocolate, cool slightly and drizzle over cake) I always bring a carton of milk. It's guaranteed to make your teeth hurt! :)

Never saw him. The only thing I can think is that he ran into the 'Hoff. Perhaps the smell of wee was so strong that the ammonia caused chemical burns to his lungs? :o

it's a darned shame. :angry:

It didn't work out for George Costanza...but then again nothing ever did. Maybe you could try the bottle/can deposit redemption scam :huh:

Don't you need a mail truck for that? Now where is Susie going to come up with a mail truck? Susie, is your mailman (or mailwomen) open to advances? Would said mailman/woman be wooable with your womanly charms? (Reading back that last sentence makes me think of Barbara Walters!) :lol::lol:

I was out doing errands, and the big sad news about Bob came over the radio. Now, only this crazy thread could make me actually be amused at news as bad as this. I said, aloud, alone in my car, "Bob Goulet! Lungs...why is this amusing me?!"

Sheesh...poor man...with an unbelieveable voice like his, he couldn't have been a smoker. Hmmmm..ammonia burns, possible. Severe, asthma-type reaction to yeti fur, a possibility.

All right, guys. You know he was here a few afternoons ago. I'm feeling a sickening responsibility, here. After all, it's too big a coincidence! Did I somehow cause this?! Ohhhhhh......he walked by my husband's hockey bag.... :o:o

:o ahem, excuse me, Cool Whip is rather evil, isn't it? is that really considered homemade frosting? all right, I confess, it DOES sound teeth-hurtingly good. :(

I have lost FOUR POUNDS on my strict calorie intake diet. :) So, NO CAKE FOR ME. :angry:

Now here's something. curiously, there is no consistency in the mail trucks or drivers here. Sometimes the mail is delivered in an orange jeep :huh: (only one I've ever seen on mail routes in my entire lifetime in California), sometimes a standard mail truck, sometimes another jeep, and SOMETIMES, not kidding, it's like a gold Toyota Celica or something, but with driver's side on right side. :huh: That one REALLY throws me.

Different drivers all the time. I will see if I can hijack any of them for my madness. mwoo-hoo-hooooo--HAAA-HAAAA-HAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (:diabolical emoticon:)

I don't *think* Barbara Walters has ever delivered the mail, but who can really be sure? :lol:

gotta love my coworkers...

While I was gone in search of candy I was gone about 10 minutes.

The girl next to me says...Amanda I have a confession.

While you were gone I was kneeling on my desk and I farted loudly.....

So she was hiding and peeking around the corner making sure no one heard.

Ahhh! Never a dull day in Clinical Trials!

I adore my cubiemate, we are a perfect match. The reason we are so relaxed around each other. About a year ago, we were walking down the hall and a fart escaped on her, she was going to die. She said my facial expression is unforgettable.

We can be ourselves around each other. So when she says want to hear a funny story, I know it has something to do with farts or people exploding in the bathroom or something along those lines.

We do have fun here.

Anyone want to come to the Clinical Trials office and work? We always have food here!

putting binder away on the shelf storage above the desks. We have no room in our office, there is barely room underneath my desk for my feet. There are lab kits and stuff under there.

Suffering from chemically burned lungs myself <_< Just got my hair cut. The odoUriferousness of my hair is starting to iritate my throat. Time for a mid-day shower so that I won't have to join RG in the ICU :huh: I'd hate to think of the mass riots that would ensue against me if I beat him out for the next set of lungs.

      Healthy Omega Three fats. Olive oil or flaxseed oil, oily fish, fatty cuts of meat. Our bodies run much better on burning fats as fuel. Diets based on carbohydrates require an increased amount of thiamine to process the carbs into fuel for the body. Unfortunately, thiamine mononitrate is used to enrich rice.

      The reaction one gets when they get glutened varies a lot from person to person. This article has some detailed information on how to be 100% gluten-free, so it may be helpful (be sure to also read the comments section.):

      Thank you so much for the responses. Every piece of information helps. I only knowingly ate gluten once, that was four days ago. I had the reaction about 3-4 hours after consuming it. I’m concerned that after 4 days the symptoms aren’t abating and almost seem worse today than yesterday. I haven’t had either breath test. I did ask about additional testi...

      @DebJ14, You said "husband has low platelets, bruises easily and gets bloody noses just from Fish Oil  He suggested he take Black Cumin Seed Oil for inflammation.  He discovered that by taking the Black Seed oil, he can eat carbs and not go into A Fib, since it does such a good job of reducing inflammation."   I don't think black seed oil is lowering inflammation.  It's lowering blood glucose levels. Black cumin seed lowers blood glucose levels.  There's a connection between high blood glucose levels and Afib.    Has your husband been checked for diabetes?   Must Read: Associations of high-normal blood pressure and impaired fasting glucose with atrial fibrillation https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36750354/

      Healthy Omega Three fats.  Olive oil or flaxseed oil, oily fish, fatty cuts of meat.   Our bodies run much better on burning fats as fuel.  Diets based on carbohydrates require an increased amount of thiamine to process the carbs into fuel for the body.  Unfortunately, thiamine mononitrate is used to enrich rice.  Thiamine mononitrate is relatively unusable in the body.  So a high carb diet can further decrease thiamine stores in the body.  Insufficient thiamine in the body causes the body to burn body fat and muscle for fuel, so weight loss and muscle wasting occurs.  Those extra carbohydrates can lead to Candida (often confused with mold toxicity) and SIBO (Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth).   Losing weight quickly is a symptom of thiamine insufficiency.  Muscle wasting is a symptom of thiamine insufficiency.  I lost sixty pounds in a month.   Having difficulty putting weight on and keeping it on is a symptom of thiamine insufficiency.   The AIP diet works because it eliminates all grains and grasses, rice, quinoa, all the carbs.  Without the carbs, the Candida and SIBO get starved and die off.  Easy way to change your microbiome is to change what you feed it.  With the rowdy neighbors gone, the intestine can heal and absorb more nutrients.   Supplementing with essential vitamins and minerals is beneficial.  Talk to your doctor and nutritionist.  Benfotiamine is a form of thiamine that promotes intestinal healing.  The eight B vitamins are water soluble, so if you don't need them, they can be gotten rid of easily.   Night shades are excluded on the AIP diet.  Potatoes, tomatoes, peppers and eggplant are not allowed on the AIP diet.  They contain alkaloids that promote "a leaky gut".  Benfotiamine can help here. Sweet potatoes are avoided because they contain thiaminases, chemicals that break thiamine so that the body cannot use it.   The AIP diet has helped me.

      Thank you so much for the responses. Every piece of information helps.  I only knowingly ate gluten once, that was four days ago. I had the reaction about 3-4 hours after consuming it. I’m concerned that after 4 days the symptoms aren’t abating and almost seem worse today than yesterday.  I haven’t had either breath test. I did ask about additional testing but the PA recommended me to a celiac specialist. Unfortunately the first available is mid-December.  As far as diet, I am a pescatarian (have been for 25+ years) and I stopped eating dairy mid-last week as my stomach discomfort continued. Right now, I’m having trouble eating anything. Have mostly been focused on bananas, grapes, nut butters, DF yogurt, eggs, veggie broth.   I ordered some gluten-free meal replacements to help.  But I’ll get all the items (thank goodness for Instacart) and try the diet you recommended to get me past this period of feeling completely awful.  Yes, my doctor diagnosed celiac. I was concerned it wasn’t right based on the negative blood test and my continued symptoms.  Even if you are ‘glutened’ it shouldn’t last forever, right? Is four days too long?
