You know how you kind of skip over words/punctuation or add them in where you think you see them . . . all subconsiously . . . this is what I read . . .

Sillies, the flakes in the office have started falling. . . :lol::lol: and I'm not talking snowflakes :lol::lol:

No snow here, but it's like 15 degrees. Freezing!

(shiver) :o

It's really not terribly cold here--mid 30's. The last I heard, any snow we do get will turn to rain later. Just in time to make for a sloppy rush hour.

OMG - where IS everyone......so quiet todya.......have we all lost our collective mojos???????

This has been the saddest day here all week, except for sunday........WTH? Am wondering if I got mildly glutened.....had some strange poop yesterday.........and today, sad, tired, mojo-less......good Lord......just went to Trader Joe's, was talking to Mike, the manager - we alwyas have great chats about this and that (he wants to set me up w/ his best friend).....so then, this very attractive, athletic-looking 50-y-old-ish man - whom I'd been eyeing in the frozen foods section - walks up to talk to Mike about wine (and Mike knows him, greeted him by name). And what did I do??????????? :blink: somehow got tongue-tied, lost brain cells, and mumbled something about "oh, I"m drinking the $2 cab these days........."

:blink:

mygawd, of all the things to say.......it fell like a lead balloon and there was just really nowhere to go with it.

needless to say, he did not find me charming.

:lol:

But I told Mike about Stinker - he had actually given me a FREE bottle of some glucosamine stuff about a month ago, so knew about her condition........maybe he'll tell the cute guy something about me being devoid of personality JUST FOR TODAY as I was grieving?

:lol:

We can only hope.

<idiot-girl-who-no-longer-knows-how-to-talk-to-attractive-men....probably because there is such a deArth of them around here>

Susie... Annie going to Tika's house- that's brutal :( And maybe you'll run into the cutie at TJ's again... you never know.

I ran into someone from this board at Whole Foods a few months ago. Kara's Mom, fairly new. We had a good chat and I showed her some stuff. She was really nice. It was a total surprise meeting, because I live about an hour north of this Whole Foods, and she lives even further away, in the opposite direction- but it's the closest one for both of us.

Well, we actually got a few inches of snow early this morning!!!!!!! The best snow we've had in a couple years. Our land is basically one huge hill, so the boys and I just got in from sledding. I probably won't be able to walk tomorrow. :lol: But the boys said that if I didn't sled, then I was a wimp. I couldn't let that stand!

We had the BEST time!!!

My mojo is currently buried deep within, as I struggle with a case of stubborn !**#!!*#!! CHROME REGISTRATION.... :angry::angry:

:blink:

Well, Susie!! What you should have done: instead of sharing any wine preferences, share the condition of your poop. This gets them attracted immediately. :lol::lol:<_<

DingoGirl Enthusiast

sledding!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! yay, what fun!!!!!!!!! no one can NOT have fun whilst sledding, it's just magic. did it all of our lives, up at Shaver........OMG I want THAT cabin back...... :(

So......I'm such an eejit......even though I was a DOLT and said taht I drank the $2 cab, and the cute guy replies, "oh, that's no good......" and then there was awkwardness, SHEESH, I coulda said so many charming things, showing in a very subtle but engaging way, my semi-knowledge of wine (which BTW I seem to have totally forgotten).

"oh, but there's lush fruit, tastes much more complex than many $15 bottles I"ve had lately......."

"yes, but I"m not getting any of the green that I"m getting in other, pricier cabs, the fruit is surprisingly well-developed...."

"oh, no! There's a surprisingly full and velvet-y mouth feel, you ought to break down and spend the $2..."

:blink:

crap, I"m not even that charming in writing, either.

:lol: :lol:

I dunno Susie, could he have been a wine SNOB? I mean, I'm all for wine appreciation... But like you, I appreciate those great cheap wines too!!!

Wine snobbery is kind of insufferable.

Just for future reference, Sarah, you're suppose to document these types of meetings with a photo that is then posted as your av!!!! Not that we don't believe you . . . (suurrrre she ran into Kara's mom)

:lol: oh you have nooooooooooo idea......working at the tasting room for four years.....mygawd, the things people would do to get US to know how much THEY knew about wine.........cannot tell you how many times I had to hear about someone's $500 (or more) bottle of Chateau Lafitte.....and blah blah blah.......and I had to VIOLENTLY SUPPRESS the urge to yell out:

"DID IT FEEL ANY DIFFERENT WHEN YOU PEED IT OUT?????????????"

...and then, when some eejit would say, " how many days of cold press maceration does this see? what's the percentage of malolactic fermentation?"

:blink:

<who gives a sh*t>

....to which I wanted to yell:

"WILL YOU LIKE IT MORE IF I TELL YOU????????????"

*snicker*

susie HAAAAAAAATES wine snobs.

I always liked the traditional

Oh Yeahhhhhh?

:lol: that could have worked. He wasn't interested. Although, when I was standing at the register and looked back over to the two of them, Mike was smiling and giving me a look....but it could have been a sympathy smile over my dead dog.

I'll corner him next time. :lol:

Nope. None of those. You've almost got it, though. Something like this will have any of them like putty in your hands:

"Well....all I can say is, wine, shmine....There's a surprisingly full and velvety feel in my bowels today, and well-developed, green stools, like lush fruit..."

:lol::lol:

I know! I wish I'd had a camera with me, but I didn't. And my phone isn't one of those fancy schmancy camera phones.

I really did meet her, I promise, just ask her! :lol:

:lol: gah <there's my uncoloUrized scarlet letter>

Quite the coincidence (large, one could say, if not in the presence of that 1 ep Seinfeld char who insisted "coincidences don't have sizes") that in this morning's local paper I ran into a reference to a Men's Health mag ranking of "Best Cities for Women to Meet Men", in which my own San Jose was #1.

A momentary flash of pride at my town being #1 in anything was abruptly followed by the realization that this is BAD BAD news for ME!!

Bad bad bad . .. . . .. . <_<

But Fresno's better than Buffalo!!!!! And Toledo!!

P.S. Stupid Men's Health mag site doesn't work for me or I'd have put up the link.

Ridgewalker Contributor

Well, there are NO cute guys around here- except Brian of course, I got the last one. ;):lol:

Hmm, at first I thought that Tom referencing a Men's Health article was a little payback for all the tampon and purse conversations, but then I realized......... that's a VERY Cosmo kind of article.

Tom... are you SURE that's was from Men's Health???????

      I've been to the Mayo Clinic. Outstanding place. Did they test to see if you might have refractory celiac disease? This may explain why the symptoms persist but what numbers are off the charts? Are they antibodies, liver enzymes?
    • captaincrab55
      Hi Dawn,   Back in the Fall of 2019 with Covid looming I considered getting a pneumonia vaccine.  I went as far as getting in line and reading the pamphlet and saw the warning about not getting it if you ever had a reaction to diphtheria.  I instantly recalled a tetanus booster shot in 1971 that caused a severe reaction.  Tetanus booster shots include diphtheria.  I haven't had a tetanus shot since, but recent lab results show that I have many timed the immunity required.  Good Luck.  
    • trents
      Since we don't know what you reacting to when you get vaccinated, we can't say whether or not the pneumonia vaccine will cause a reaction. Is there some common ingredient in these vaccines that is causing a reaction. I mean, with many vaccines the antigen is delivered via a solution containing albumin (chicken egg protein). Some people are allergic to chicken egg protein so they can't take those vaccines. That kind of thing. When you say your "numbers are off the chart", what numbers do you refer to? Are you referring to celiac disease antibodies?

      Cape Cod potato chips are gluten-free, according to the company. I've never had a problem with these.
    • Dawn Meyers
      I'm 63  Thank you for the article. I have worked with Dietitian at Mayo and also had breath testing done. They felt I was following a strict gluten-free diet along with eliminating sugar alcohol and chicory root. Also don't eat a lot meat, eggs and peppers. Because I get so sick I use only gluten-free products for my skin food medicine my pet food is gluten-free and I live alone so all my cooking stuff is all brand new prior to being diagnosed.  I buy only organic certified gluten free products and if not sure  look up or just don't eat or use. The Dermatologist at Mayo gave me a list of gluten-free products that I can use. ( personal products,  laundry detergent, I use vinegar and baking soda for cleaning ) . I ask family and friends to not bring  anything  in to my home that has gluten in it. I have tried  everything and my numbers still off the charts.   So as for the pneumonia vaccine I question if it has anything in it that will react negative in me?
