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:

:o Emily! *gasp* could it really be the fault of your husband's stinky gym bag? or the yeti fur? I mean, how many have really spent this much time in close proximity to the elusive beast....

How about Bob Barker . . . he has face/name recognition and a history of promoting animal wellness. . . plus, he's out of a job now.

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.

      Taking Probiotics but Still Getting Sick After Gluten – Advice?

      By trents · Posted

      I assume that you already know that genetic testing for celiac disease cannot be used to confirm a celiac diagnosis. About 40% of the general population has the genetic potential to develop celiac disease but only about 1% actually develop celiac disease. It can be used to rule out celiac disease with a high degree of confidence, however, in the case where the genetic testing is negative for the genes. Until and unless you are actually diagnosed with celiac disease I would not raise this as an issue with family. However, if you are diagnosed with celiac disease through blood antibody testing and/or endoscopy with positive biopsy I would suggest you encourage first degree relatives to also purse testing because there is a significant chance (somewhere betwee 10% and almost 50%, depending on which studies you reference) that they will also have or will develop active celiac disease. Often, there are symptoms are absent or very minor until damage to the small bowel lining or other body systems becomes significant so be prepared that they may blow you off. We call this "silent celiac disease".

      GI DX celiac despite neg serology and no biopsy

      By trents · Posted

      If you were off gluten for two months that would have been long enough to invalidate the celiac blood antibody testing. Many people make the same mistake. They experiment with the gluten free diet before seeking formal testing. Once you remove gluten from the diet the antibodies stop being produced and those that are already in circulation begin to be removed and often drop below detectable levels. To pursue valid testing for celiac disease you would need to resume gluten consumption equivalent to the amount found in 4-6 slices of wheat bread daily for at least two weeks, preferably longer. These are the most recent guidelines for the "gluten challenge". Without formal testing there is no way to distinguish between celiac disease and gluten sensitivity since their symptoms overlap. However, celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder that damages the small bowel lining, not true of gluten sensitivity. There is no test available for gluten sensitivity so celiac disease must first be ruled out. By the way, elevated liver enzymes was what led to my celiac diagnosis almost 25 years ago.

      Then it does not seem to me that a gluten-related disorder is at the heart of your problems, unless that is, you have refractory celiac disease. But you did not answer my question about how long you had been eating gluten free before you had the blood antibody test for celiac disease done.
