Monday afternoon.

The first interview was by phone, so maybe that doesn't count as a first interview? :blink: :blink:

BRAIN SCIENCE?? Dear gawd, this institute likely has an entire file on Psillyville, right from the earliest pages.... .. . . .."subjects for study and debate". . . .....

:lol:

Best of luck, Jyess.....looks like a sophisticated, cutting -edge place. YOU SHOULD BE THERE!

And Paul Allen looks like such a calm, gentle man . .. . .a lovely, brainy guy for whom to work. . . . . . ..

I need another shower <_<

How do people LIVE here????? HIH did they live here before air conditioning???? :blink:

Swear to gawd--it's like an oven out there :o Literally.

Um. . . . . . . ...... . .all right, let's leave the big Psillyville Psummit meeting location open for further debate, shall we? :unsure:

:rolleyes:

Part of the reason I grieved so hard when he died was that I didn't want to give up the 'new' & improved Daddy I had. So I find myself (uncharitably) jealous of those of you who've been able to live your whole lives with such special parents.

And about three months before he did go, he looked at me one day, tears in his eyes, adn said: "I finally found my daughter." *gulp* and I replied: "I finally found my daddy." We had dropped our lifelong weapons of defense, and in his prolonged illness, he softened so.

Don't think it's ever gonna happen.....just wanted to commiserate with you two. I really understand what you're saying and I'm so sorry.

Again, I am poignantly reminded (and it is vital, for me, that this happens regularly), of how very lucky I am. Every night now I count my blessings. :)

Geoss! very exciting!!!!!!!!!

"what should exist?" I'll tell you what in hell should exist, and I think about it every morning of my life whilst in shower. <_<

I'd like a leg-shaving razor that is about three inches wide. I mean, WHY IN HELL hasn't anybody invented this???? I'm to shave how many square inches of skin with a thing invented to shave a man's FACE??? :angry:

Really. We need a very wide razor. Three inches. Maybe four. Imagine how few swipes one would have to take. Please speak to that smart Paul Allen about this during yer interview, will you J? :lol: *snort*

(and no, this is not my brilliant business plan - that one's called Hire a Hag :lol: )

Monday afternoon.

totally counts now, and you passed. :)

Um. . . . . . . ...... . .all right, let's leave the big Psillyville Psummit meeting location open for further debate, shall we? :unsure:

:lol: am in full agreement. WE couldn't go anywhere near TexAss until late fall, I'm thinking, or dead of winter.

Count yer blessings, Em. Your dad is amazing. :)

PadTea - I'd forgotten about your mum. I soooooooo hope you can find your peace with her.....though she sounds difficult, and SOOOOO completely unlike you....

am boycotting the HS graduation tonight (erased the ranting about it from earlier post). They actually didn't even get me a ticket, we are pretty sure, so I don't have to go, WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :rolleyes:

This might sound a tad macabre, but I'm actually a bit jealous of you guys.

See, my dad was NOT an awesome guy. Not most of my life. He was angry, rather mean and abusive, and very difficult to live/work with. During the year he was sick, a great deal of that changed, and I got to have a year with my dad as my Daddy, as loving and kind and wonderful as I knew he always could be. I know exactly how evil his mother was (a woman with whom I will NOT associate), and how extroardinarily hard he worked to improve himself enough just to be the mean bastard I grew up with.

Part of the reason I grieved so hard when he died was that I didn't want to give up the 'new' & improved Daddy I had. So I find myself (uncharitably) jealous of those of you who've been able to live your whole lives with such special parents. I can only imagine how hard it must be to contemplate losing someone who's so deeply imbedded in everything in your life, who's so well loved. I sincerely hope he gets better.

And hey, so when did I become the traveling chef?!?!?! Who's gonna shell out for all that equipment, huh? Don't I get a vote in this?!?!?

I am really, truly sorry to hear this. I, too, can relate to all of the issues with parents you have all mentioned (I had many quotes, but messed up and lost them).

Bunnie, a big <<hug>>. I know you are/were a good daughter, because you are a good person.

Peter, big <<hug>> for you guys, too. It is so hard to watch a loved one's health fail. I cannot imagine what it would be like to with alzheimer's, or the pain of no longer being a part of that loved ones reality. It's as though a stranger has moved in to their body--you recognise the face, voice, but the person staring out at you is not the same.

Pat, big <<hug>> for you, too. I really identify most with what you said about your relationship with your mom. I soooooo get it :(

For the life of me I cannot fathom why otherwise intelligent people would put pineapple on a pizza, along with ham, and actually eat the thing.

Peter, I am all for bacon, black olives, etc,

but pineapple, ham, mushroom (and onion) is too DIE FOR. A truly mouthgasmic food experience.

Afternoon!!!!!!

Pineapple, ham and mushroom on me pizza please!!!!!!!!

See? What she said :)

Nikki, everyone--I was sent a virus through my facebook friends PM account this morning, along with every other one of her friends. If you recieve an Inbox message that is titled something like "Pprivate Pplease. Vvideo of yyou Ppublished" do NOT open it. Repeat--DO NOT OPEN IT!!!!!!

Okeydokey....I know I live in Texas...and it's the south....and it's hot.....BUT pseriously Sillies--this is the hottest day I've ever felt in me life! I ran to the store (drove, really) ... planned to get there and back asap. Well, I got back here, and first couldn't get into the parking garage, and then my keypad wouldn't work on the building door.

I had to park the car, traipse around the freakin building to the front door, groceries in hand, praying it would open....and luckily one of the property managers was there showing an apartment er sumphin.

I need another shower

How do people LIVE here????? HIH did they live here before air conditioning????

I feel better now

Swear to gawd--it's like an oven out there Literally.

I am sso nnot jjealous.

i have a second interview

Woo-hoo! That is excellent news :D

Best of kluck to you ;)

Yes, use us as references. In fact, e-mail some anecdotes and a facebook link. Invite him to join yer mafia :lol:

No seriously, I wish you the best. I sincerely hope you get it, and that it is what you've been looking for :D

I think what I really want is a lobotomy.......

Yes, that ASS HAT from my former life. The most ruinous man alive. The man I will never forgive and loathe the thought of. HE pops up as a "potential friend." HOW IN HELL DID THIS HAPPEN?????? his WIFE pops up also, all the time. Ass Hat and I have NO mutual friends.

Suze, you crazee wacko sil. No more wuvvin' from yer baby skittle? Job boring you to tears? As if that weren't bad enough....

former love semi-surfacing on the book, like some shadow stalker figure?

You two must have a mutual connection somewhere. Facebook automatically generates those potential friend sugesstions based on info you enter, like place of work, where you live or go to school.

Julie, as Jess said, relationships are often complex. You helped open a window into some of ours.

Patti, you really, really did say "really" as many times as I just did. B)

The parent/child relationship is the epitome of complex. We love each other so much it hurts. I really don't wan't to add my own sad tale--I hate telling people about it all (although if my folks had come stay with me for the four months like they wanted to, I would have been e-mailing you'se like every ten minutes.) But, I can honestly say I am a good mother, and that is what matters most to me.

You appear to have flummoxed us all.

Ah ha! My little trick worked. B):blink::ph34r:

ME first this mornin!!!!

I stayed home from work today, not something I normally do. Got my period this morning, and without being too graphic, I'll just say it occasionally has an unfortunate effect on my bowels. I wasn't in the mood for hobbling back and forth to the bathroom all morning. I wish Imodium would work on this particular issue.....

Doesn't happen every time, just 2 or 3 times a year, but when those days fall on workdays I's in trubbles.....

      Celiac getting dentures

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Your experience is both shocking and critically important for the community to hear, underscoring the terrifying reality that cross-contamination can extend into the most unexpected and invasive medical devices. It is absolutely devastating that you had to endure six months of sickness and ultimately sustain permanent vision loss because a doctor dismissed your legitimate, life-altering condition. Your relentless research and advocacy, from discovering the gluten in MMA acrylic to finding a compassionate prosthodontist, is a testament to your strength in a system that often fails celiac patients. While the scientific and medical consensus is that gluten cannot be absorbed through the skin or eyes (as the molecules are too large to pass through these barriers), your story highlights a terrifying gray area: what about a substance *permanently implanted inside the body*, where it could potentially shed microparticles or cause a localized immune reaction? Your powerful warning about acrylic lenses and the drastic difference with the silicone alternative is invaluable information. Thank you for sharing your harrowing journey and the specific, severe neurological symptoms you endure; it is a stark reminder that celiac is a systemic disease, and your advocacy is undoubtedly saving others from similar trauma.

      Fighting for a name

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I am so sorry you're going through this bad experience--it's difficult when your own lived reality of cause and effect is dismissed by the very professionals meant to help you. You are absolutely right—your violent physical reactions are not "what you think," but undeniable data points, and it's a form of medical gaslighting to be told otherwise, especially when you have a positive HLA-DQ2 gene and a clear clinical picture. Since your current "celiac specialist" is not addressing the core issue or your related conditions like SIBO and chronic fatigue, it may be time for a strategic pivot. Instead of trying to "reprove" your celiac disease to unwilling ears, consider seeking out a new gastroenterologist or functional medicine doctor, and frame the conversation around managing the complications of a confirmed gluten-free diet for celiac disease. Go in and say, "I have celiac disease, am strictly gluten-free, but I am still suffering from these specific complications: SIBO, chronic fatigue, dermatological issues, and high blood pressure linked to pain. I need a partner to help me address these related conditions." This shifts the focus from a debate about your diagnosis to a collaborative plan for your current suffering, which is the help you truly need and deserve to work toward bouncing back.

      Hello, no I had to have them re done and then used a liner over the top.  Many dentists are not aware of the celiac effects.  Best of luck.   There is other material, yet, very expensive.

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      By sleuth · Posted

      He is not just a psychiatrist.  He is also a neuroscientist.  And yes, I have already read those studies.   I agree with benfotiamine.  This is short term while glutened/inflammation occurs.  As I had already mentioned, these symptoms no longer exist when this phase passes.  And yes, I know that celiac is a disease of malnutrition.  We are working with a naturopath.
