My life used to be so funny. I'm not sure where I lost my psillie mojo. I wish it would come back though. Even my kids haven't been saying too many funny things-that's REALLY odd!

Watching Bob Dylan on The Grammys--still looks pretty good.

Looks good, but sounds.......... not so good :blink: Mumford & Sons though... Phab!!

Banana cake.....buttercream or caramel frosting?

Little late to the game, as per usual, but I'd go with a whipped chocolate ganasche ;)

One of our radio stations played " easy listening" & Christmas music starting in Oct. They have changed to all comedy. They play different comedians stand- up. I was laughing while I was driving.

One guy was talking about the implications of men with PMS. " better not invite Joe to go hunting, he's PMSing"

Reminds me....Mark was telling me last week that he was talking to a couple other guys at the office and I guess he complained about something because one of the guys said--"want me to go into the ladies' room and get you a tampax?"

Mark replied--"Don't use 'em, I'm past menopause". :P

I bought these "Drive and Learn French" C.D's to listen to during my commute. I lasted 10 minutes this morning because it started out talking as fast as you can, "Let's count!" OneTwoThreeFourFive:UnDeuxTroisQuatreCinq, MyNameIsJohn,HowAreYou?:JeM'appelleJohn,CommentAllez-vous?

I was getting so stressed out I had to turn it off!! I don't really want to pay 300$ for the Rosetta Stone.

You don't need to learn French. The French all speak English. Spanish might be more useful.

We have a French exchange student on the robotics team. Better English then the rest of us. Extremely polite.

Only if they want to :ph34r: Now the Germans DO all speak English so that's a waste of time learning that language. I did the Spanish tapes in the car bit before we went to Mexico, (used to spend a lot of time stopped on the "free"way) and got these very strange looks :blink:

Gah! Well, as was suggested on Da Book, both men and women of ANY age could be using them as nasal drippage stoppers.....got the pull-out strings an' everything.....even different sizes.. . . . ...

When my brother got his wisdom teeth out, the doctor told him to get tampons from his sisters to pack the wounds & absorb blood for the first day. So my 16 year old bro asked me his 20 year old sis for tampons. Then he said, "Not used ones, please." :ph34r:

Used to be fluent in Espanol, but alas, you don't use it, you lose it. I know I have no use for French at all, but my mother was fluent in French as was my college roommate and I've always wanted to learn. My high school only offered Spanish and Japanese. I didn't want either one of them, but I did get to go to Mexico 5 years in a row to practice. Now if I can manage to learn French and get to France 5 years in a row.....

Um. . . . . . . . . ....forgive me, any die-hard Dylan fans.. . . . ..... .. .but did he EVER sound good?? <_<

Um...NO. Good songwriter, yes. I thought maybe they had turned him mic off at the Grammy's bc I couldn't hear him over the instuments-which were UH-mazing btw!

Then he said, "Not used ones, please." :ph34r:

HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!

Something is stinking in our garage. It's happened a couple of times this winter and we can't pin down the source. It gets really bad and then disappears all together only to resurface a month later. When the doors to the garage are closed, the whole place stinks, when you open them up, it completely airs out. There's no area of the garage that is worse than any other. The dog won't sniff it out either, she totally ignores it. I forget, why do we have her? She totally does not pull her weight around here!! You ask her to sniff out the location of one stinkin' thing and she totally blows us off!!!

Do you have access to a cat? Evil Kitty, the neighborhood cat, checks my garage for hidden mice.

Yes, I do believe it is that "something's dead" smell . . . but why does it come and go . . . and why is the dog not even remotely interested??!!!

I'm afeared that we need to actually haul everything out of the garage to find it and that's just not possible at the moment . . . hence, hoping that the dog would point us in the right direction <_< . . . guess we shoulda got a pointer instead of a mutt that is only interested in squirrels. That makes me think that it is NOT a dead squirrel.

      You might consider asking for a referral to a RD (Registered Dietician) to help with food choices and planning a diet. Even apart from any gluten issues, you will likely find there are some foods you need to avoid because of the shorter bowel but you may also find that your system may make adjustments over time and that symptoms may improve.

      Losing 12" of your small bowel is going to present challenges for you in nutritional uptake because you are losing a significant amount of nutritional absorption surface area. You will need to focus on consuming foods that are nutritionally dense and also probably look at some good supplements. If indeed you are having issues with gluten you will need to educate yourself as to how gluten is hidden in the food supply. There's more to it than just avoiding the major sources of gluten like bread and pasta. It is hidden in so many things you would never expect to find it in like canned tomato soup and soy sauce just to name a few. It can be in pills and medications.  Also, your "yellow diarrhea, constipation and bloating" though these are classic signs of a gluten disorder, could also be related to the post surgical shorter length of your small bowel causing incomplete processing/digestion of food.

      There are two gluten-related disorders that share many of the same symptoms but differ in nature from each other. One is known as celiac disease or "gluten intolerance". By nature, it is an autoimmune disorder, meaning the ingestion of gluten triggers the body to attack it's own tissues, specifically the lining of the small bowel. This attack causes inflammation and produces antibodies that can be detected in the blood by specific tests like the TTG-IGA test you had. Over time, if gluten is not withheld, this inflammation can cause severe damage to the lining of the small bowel and even result in nutrient deficiency related health issues since the small bowel lining is organ where all the nutrition found in our food is absorbed.  The other is NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity or just "gluten sensitivity") which we know less about and are unsure of the exact mechanism of action. It is not an autoimmune disorder and unlike celiac disease it does not damage the lining of the small bowel, though, like celiac disease, it can cause GI distress and it can also do other kinds of damage to the body. It is thought to be more common than celiac disease. Currently, we cannot test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out to arrive at a diagnosis of NCGS. Both disorders require elimination of gluten from the diet.  Either of these disorders can find their onset at any stage of life. We know that celiac disease has a genetic component but the genes are inactive until awakened by some stress event. About 40% of the general population has the genetic potential to develop celiac disease but only about 1% develop active celiac disease. The incidence of NCGS is thought to be considerably higher. I hope this helps.
