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.

Oh Amanda, you can do better than that! Nobody will be able to verify you answer! :lol:

How about . . . she was getting ready to drop a water balloon on the person in the next cube?

Or . . . She was checking the next cube to see if anyone was there 'cause she was getting ready to let one rip?

Or . . . She was helping the other three technical trials people change the light bulb . . . How many trial techs does it take to change a light bulb? Four. One to change the light bulb and the other three to . . .document the side effects? . . . I don't know, anybody got a punch line? :huh:

:lol: Nine thousand, nine hundred and ninety-nine bottles and cans in the trunk, nine thousand, nine hundred and ninety-nine bottles and cans. At ten cents a bottle and ten cents a can, we're pulling in five hundred dollars a man.....

Patti, I wish I had this song when I volunteered to go out with my daughter's hockey team on a bottle drive, knocking on doors. Would've been a GREAT marching song!

Okay, brainiacs...time for some dreaded MATH..... :( Speaking of daughter, she is struggling at the kitchen table as we speak with her algebra (shudder...). I've put in a heroic effort helping her, and I did stumble, correctly, through a couple of them. But this one we cannot get. It's beginning to haunt me, this final question:

A mother is three times as old as her daughter. Six years ago, she was five times as old as her daughter. How old are the mother and daughter now?

Owwww....my little brain...

Why can't they be giving our kids more interesting problems to solve?!

Robert Goulet is eating a container of emerald nuts. He gets it half eaten. If Richard Simmons then does fifty minutes of aerobics with him, and a minute of aerobic activity burns nine calories...

Y'know, something like that.

Last night, on some entertainment gossip show, they asked Wildenstein what she thought of Britney's new lip injection....her answer was uninteligible.......:huh:

I don't believe I'm familiar with her . . . and OMG what a sideshow! . . . and her dog looked scared to death of her! :ph34r:

Food--all kinds, today I brought in pepperoni and cheese and crackers, gluten-free for me and they enjoyed the crackers too.

With Halloween coming everyone brings in a bag of candy a day. So yesterday we had nerds, junior mints, and sweet tarts, smarties.

You guys can all join me at work, you all would fit right in.

Has anyone else noticed Patti is just getting funnier & funnier??

Must be the stress of upcoming move :D

OMG - here's something quite fun to to. Just google Jocelyn Wildenstein - you will NOT believe how beautiful and normal looking she once was, and what she became....it's been a fascination of my paltry little circle of friends for quite some time now. :lol:

x = daughter

y = mother

3x=y

(y-6)=5(x-6)

x=12

y=36

no no, you're wrong - -

it's this

x = 23784629

y = dgw899239

x + y + 9(weoi5y24nj459387snfkdh)

and so the answer is

x + 3rhwp;875ios837918y4 @&#%@&%#*&@#^*

THAT Is the correct answer. :P

Yes, Patti IS getting funnier!!! clearly she is delirious!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :lol:

Oh yes, you're quite correct. I see where I went wrong . . . forgot to cube the inverse of the factorial.

I can't think of anything I would want pluralized more than MATH. One is enough....

Thank you, Janet, Queen Algebra Woman! :lol: My daughter had said that her teacher wanted them to have only one unknown in each problem, so I was trying to figure it as daughter being x, mother being 3x. But your way works with a y, so she's done it that way. The hell with said mathS teacher, I say!

Give me dangling participles any day!

You know I work at a large hospital, so if Robert Goulet does not feel he is getting the care he deserves he can always be transferred to my hospital...we give World Class Care!

Yes--perfect for the bottle drive...except once you hear it, it's hard to get it out of your head :blink:

and her dog looked scared to death of her! :ph34r:

That's exactly what I thought. I've seen her before on Entertainment Tonight--sad.

x = daughter

y = mother

3x=y

(y-6)=5(x-6)

x=12

y=36

Oh, I got a little thrill there . . .

Wow--very impressive B)

Yes, Gus does possess this Mona Lisa-type stare. I cannot decide...he either looks quite refined and regal, or colossally stupid. :rolleyes:

Trying to get my two kids together for an avatar pic. Alas, my daughter keeps racing way, her hands over her head, shouting, "NO! NO! I've got zits!"

Gad, who doesn't? She may have zits, but she's also got her algebra done. And hey, why don't my kids ever have homework like, "find the dangling participles and split infinitives in the following sentences"...Then I could create the illusion that I'm brainy. All this math coming home, they think I'm rather dim...

oh holy heinosity! painting a house!! we will miss you. BTW I love Richard Simmons. not kidding. he's very entertaining, esp. on David Letterman. :lol:

I have a very heinous project of stripping old mahogany HUGE dining table and 10 large chairs that go with it, then distressing/painting all of this to look quite old and Scandinavian. in this stepford community I have a ONE-CAR garage. :huh: (absurd) So, the table will take up the entire garage for as long as it takes me to do it.

Helpers? anyone? I cannot seem to bring myself to do this horrid task. :blink:

Looking at her makes my face hurt. And I feel the need to apply chapstick. :unsure:

:huh:

or burn salve......

Yes, Gus's eyes DO follow you, don't they? like a painting in a Dickensian mansion.... and he DOES look regal!

all right, must head to that happy place we know as TArget. :rolleyes: But it can be very dangerous, so this will be a very quick trip, STRAIGHT to the container area. In and out, no diversions. :ph34r:

Back later.

Gus looks quite the scholarly gentleman--he needs a pipe and a tweed jacket with patches on the elbows. Or thereabouts, since I don't think dogs have elbows :unsure:

I have a picture of Allo that actually resembles Gus in this pose. Gotta get to the other computer--the pic is there.....be right back.

      My reaction to a gluten bolus exposure is similar to yours, with 2-3 hours of severe abdominal cramps and intractable emesis followed by several hours of diarrhea. I don't necessarily equate that one large exposure to gluten with significant intestinal lining damage, however. I think it's just a violent reaction to a what the body perceives to be a somewhat toxic substance that I am no longer tolerant of because I have quit exposing myself to it regularly. It's just the body purging itself of it rather than an expression of significant damage. Before diagnosis, when I was consuming gluten daily, I had little to no GI distress. I was, for the most part, a "silent celiac". The damage to my small bowel lining didn't happen all at once but was slow and insidious, accumulating over a period of years. The last time I got a big shot of gluten was about three years ago when I got my wife's wheat biscuits mixed up with my gluten-free ones. There was this acute reaction after about two hours of ingestion as I described above. I felt washed out for a few days and fully recovered within a week or so.  Now, I'm a 74-year-old male. So, I'm not worried about being pregnant. And I don't want to contradict your physicians advice. But I just don't think you have done significant damage to your small bowel lining by one episode of significant gluten ingestion. I just don't think it works that way.

      Wondering about some thoughts on how long to wait to try to get pregnant after a gluten exposure?  I have been diagnosed for 10 years and have followed the diet strictly. I have been cross contaminated before, but have never had a full on gluten exposure. I went to a restaurant recently, and the waiter messed up and gave me regular bread and told me it was gluten free. 2 hours later I was throwing up for the whole evening. I have never had that kind of reaction before as I have never had such a big exposure. My husband and I were planning to start trying to get pregnant this month. My dr did blood work to check for electrolytes and white blood cells, but did not do a full nutritional panel. Most of my GI symptoms have resolved in the past 2 weeks, but I am definitely still dealing with brain fog, fatigue and headaches. My dr has recommended I wait 3 months before I start to try to get pregnant.   I have read else where about how long it can take for the intestine to fully heal, and the impacts gluten exposure can have on pregnancy. I guess I am really wondering if anyone has had a similar experience? How long does it take to heal after 1 exposure like that, after following the diet so well for 10 years? Is 3 months an okay amount of time to wait? Is there anything I can do in the meantime to reduce my symptoms?

      I’ve used tinctures and made my own edibles with gluten-free ingredients to stay safe. Dispensary staff don’t always know about gluten, so I double-check labels or just make my own.

      It's great to hear that there are some good doctors out there, and this is an example of why having a formal diagnosis can definitely be helpful.

      Update: I have a wonderful new gastroenterologist. She wants to be sure there’s nothing more serious, like refractory celiac, going on. She ordered various tests including some micronutrient tests that no one has ever ordered before.  I’m deficient in folate and zinc and starting supplements for both. I’m so glad I decided to go to a new GI!
