SILLIES!!!!!!!!!!!!! :o

OMG - we are on page 666 of the thread........look out....take cover....what does it MEAN???????

:unsure:

Gadzooks! I just about snorted Tootsie roll out my nose :lol:

Gadzooks. :lol: :lol: Jude Law's nuggets........now THERE is a thing to ponder. :lol:

HOLY Kuuuuuuuuuurrrrrrr-WRAP it DID live up to the Hype!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

holy kuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuurrrrrrrrrrap 'tis wondrous ;)

One day - - Ptaum will find his too....... :wub: 'tis the most unexpected thing imaginable, truly the most shocking thing........

Does he know what a yeti is?

How about anal glands? Knows what they are/got any?

as a matter of fact, Annie did a BUTT SCOOT yesterday - - although we never saw the scoot, just the remains. <blech>

So an entire conversation about my sillies ensued - although he knew about you guys before - - and we did cover anal glands, yeti, many things. He was out of his mind. He is a goof, with the soul of a poet and a brain that......is the total opposite of my dingo-brain adn compliments mine nicely. :lol:

JANET - OMG. Details later. He does NOT have big pointed ears and a black nose, however he IS working on his second-degree black belt. He IS a computer.....programmer? technician? guy in charge of eveyrthing having to do with computers for tons of people? Information technology? Information services? :blink: what in hell. It's all devil-gibberish to me and he shows things to me and I just crack up.......it don't make no sense at all. 'Tis surely the work of the devil, I tell him all the time. COMPUTERS ARE EVIL. :lol: :lol:

he DID fix my computer and de-bugged it and worked on many things and now....'tis magic. :wub:

He LOVES dogs.........LOVES LOVES LOVES Annie (then again, who doesn't. Even Jude was....he was simply out of his mind for her and wants to put her in a movie).

I can't tell you where I met him yet, but it was last summer......and you guys will die. We stayed in touch, got to know one another, but didn't start dating until rather recently and I have kept it very secret. He comes with a good reference as one of my best friends has known him over 20 years.

But get this........get this........hold on to yer toilet seats and yer BUMBLESHOOTS ('tis the correct word, Patti - unless your aunt? grandma? said it differently)..........

Three generations ago his family bought 60 acres with 3 cabins in the Santa Cruz mountains. :o I've seen pictures. I may die.

:wub:

god help me............hold me.........Susie is.........verklempt!!!!!!!!!!!!

good gawd, I must go. Have been in a vortex of another kind................

forgive my self-centeredness. Exhausting, this love business. Not for sissies. ;)

Oh Susie, I have never seen you so happy. It is so nice.

:lol: It's a silly word for umbrella--my aunt used to use it all the time :D

My grandma used to call her umbrella this...but she said BUMBERSHOOT. We'll have to confer with Nikki, as I vaguely remember it being an English expression.....

OMG - we are on page 666 of the thread........look out....take cover....what does it MEAN???????

I noticed this as soon as I made the first post on this page.....Gad, I hope I don't become an anti-monarch figure...a foil, so to speak, in my position as first-over -to-this-mark........ :unsure::ph34r:

So an entire conversation about my sillies ensued - although he knew about you guys before - - and we did cover anal glands, yeti, many things. He was out of his mind. He is a goof, with the soul of a poet and a brain that......is the total opposite of my dingo-brain adn compliments mine nicely.

Mygawd.....Get him on here!!...........

The soul of a poet.....Splendid. ...Er, as long as we're not talking Wilde or Cummings. This type of soul would drive me to insanity...) :rolleyes::lol:

he DID fix my computer and de-bugged it and worked on many things and now....'tis magic. :wub:

This type comes in verrrrrrry handy. No more computer probs for Susie! Hey! I need to speak with him about chrome registration failure..... :rolleyes:

Yes . . . I have one of these as well . . . he comes in quite handy. Fixes my mom's computer when we are at her house. Fixes his mom's computer as well. Gives long-distance consultations to all relatives.

I can't tell you where I met him yet, but it was last summer......and you guys will die.

Well then . . . we shall have to guess, won't we?

You met him whilst wearing your pajamas pricing out hardwood flooring at Lowe's?

You met him whilst wearing your pajamas to shop at Trader Joes?

You met him whilst wearing your pajamas when you were stalking the half-naked zombie man? . . . OMG, WAIT!!!! . . . he IS the half naked zombie man!!!!!!

Before he left for work, DH was looking at me with his oft-donned expression, "yeah...sure", when I was going on and on about how involved we all are in Sillyville with Michelle's quest. So I led him over to the laptop and scrolled over the last few posts.

He stood, slack-jawed. Then he let out a large guffaw and said, "Whoa! Amazing...I'll email Ed (his bro and Michelle's DH) this morning and tell him. . . ."

:lol: I can see the fully slackened jaw from here!!

. . .. . They have seventy to eighty dogs on their property, all with their own dog houses. It's quite something! :)

Whoa!!!! Dems a lotsa houses!

I just spent ONE HOUR reading, w/ many quotes and posts to address, started writing, they are ALL GONE NOW................ <insert angry face>

I tried and TRIED to invoke the powers of this elusive so-called magic triangle............ :huh:

Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!

I should really try it again on a pc when using stacked quotes.

Tom - - ABSINTHE????????????????????? OMG - how IS it? does it taste normal and real? Susie is pleased......... :rolleyes:

Hehehehehe ahhhhhh yes I meant to write about this.

It tastes good&plenty (yup licorice-y, like liquified Good&Plentys sans sweetness) and certainly non-imaginary. (Wth does the "real" part of that question even MEAN??!!)

It IS very strong & a different sort of buzz, but neither of us hallucinated nor became homicidal.

Roommate John claims absinthe originally had some opium but I dunno 'bout dat.

I'm sure ours had to have wormwood and the compound thujone(sp?) or it wouldn't BE absinthe. Those are what were blamed for its illegalization in the first place as far as I know.

Looking fwd to trying it again & I think I'll :lol: pull out my old paints & canvases BEFORE summoning the Phaerie just in case inspiration strikes. :lol:

Still no sign of Sarah? :(

I keep wondering how our Queen is too. :(

Gah!!! :lol: there's no K in that word!!!! I must speak up lest all of Sillyville adopts it erroneously! (You already got Julie!)

The site has Skijoring, but I've heard of it as both Skijourning & Skijorning before.

Little bro Pete has done it and in Alaska I'd see ppl out doing it now and then. One spring there were at least two skijourners way out towards older brother Pat's cabin, leaving the telltale tracks.

HOLY CRAP TOM!!!!!

Take Cover!!!! :o:o

You're at 2000 Posts!!!!

I personally put more significance to the 1999th yesterday, as it's once in a lifetime to match member# and NOW I know why this embarrassing depths-of-stupidity incident occurred yesterday! (Still no red-faced emoticon!!)

You'll all quickly see where this is headed.

I don't often take baths but my back was particularly bad so I thought a nice hot soak might help.

Yup .. . . ...omG the sudden panic when realizing the tub had been 'filling' for 20-30min!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Luckily the bathroom floor is a bit concave. Maybe 70% of the floor had an inch to inch & a half of water. Grrrrrrrrr :angry:

Discovered my rugs are surprisingly absorbent but it also took nearly every towel I own!!! I couldn't think of what else to do!!!!!!

The mopping up and squeezing out was the best workout my forearms have gotten in yrs.

So BEWARE the post# that matches member#!!

2000th post effect so far is just some drizzle, which is safely remaining outdoors. No leaks.

But now I must worry about automotive fluids during my upcoming errand run. :ph34r:

Patti!! WTH is a bumpershoot?

:huh::huh:

:lol:

:lol: I've heard the word bumBershoot for umbrella since childhood and at first even read it w/ B!!

I am SO easily amused right now :lol:

this is the last entry on the chili-judging thing:

Chili # 8 Karen's Toenail Curling Chili...

Judge # 1 -- The perfect ending, this is a nice blend chili. Not too bold, but spicy enough to declare its existence.

Judge # 2 -- This final entry is a good, balanced chili. Neither mild, nor hot. Sorry to see that most of it was lost when Judge # 3 farted, passed out, fell over, and pulled the chili pot down on top of himself. Not sure if he's going to make it. Poor fella, wonder how he'd have reacted to really hot chili?

:lol: :lol:

This reminds me of an actual true story . . . I guy that I worked with was living with his girlfriend. She apparently made some screaming hot chili. I don't know if he loved it that way or was afraid of hurting her feelings . . . so he apparently ate a lot of it. Later that night, he sat on the toilet with his insides screaming for mercy. Apparently he passed out from the pain, fell off of the toilet, his private parts were caught on the seat as he fell . . . and lacerated his manliness. He had to go to the emergency room for stitches.

Susies got the :wub: :wub: :wub: :wub:s and I just got warned for overly effusive use of emoticons so here's what posting is like in HELL:

Julie- I've been thinking this for awhile- I think we're related :P:D I love being an auntie too!!!!!!!!!!!!!! My sister and BIL and FIL all refer to me as Auntie Mame....they were all over Sunday for Kurt';s birthday and somehow I went from sitting on the couch with the adults to upstairs judging the booty shaking competition on my bed with four kids. (ROLL EYES) (ROLL EYES)

Sillies, my new study opened up at work and thus bringing me farther and farther from the Vortex....

One day - - Ptaum will find his too....... :wub: 'tis the most unexpected thing imaginable, truly the most shocking thing........

He IS a computer.....programmer? technician? guy in charge of eveyrthing having to do with computers for tons of people? Information technology? Information services? :blink: what in hell.

COMPUTERS ARE EVIL. :lol: :lol:

I KNEW something cabin-ish was in the mix :lol:

It IS beautiful up there. (FYI for the non-californians: the Santa Cruz range is what's between the ocean & San Jose/South Bay/Palo Alto & up the peninsula. We see it every day)

I could die of........embarassment at my stupidish-ness. :huh:

But I could crack up at the same time.

I JUST this very second.........after ALL THIS TIME...........just this VERY millisecond looked at Janet's user name - which I've always pronounced and seen as "Darn two-ten."

and JUST this minute........I realized that it's "darn tootin" and I am the biggest loser lame-brain that there is.

excellent, the booty-shaking competition. My brother got married in Seattle years ago - I was about 38 or so. The family was up there and the two oldest nieces got to go - I took great joy in mooning them in the elevator of the hotel every chance I got. :lol:

Bev - David's a Kurt? I should BE so lucky!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :)

Yes - I too love making Patti laugh and snort tootsies through her nose. (ouch)

I have nothing to say, I just wanted to be # 10,000 to reply to this topic!!

Stepford walked to her mailbox this morning and was really scrutinizing. Um, let's just say, I have lived in this house three years, and not ONCE has a man spent the night. Not even Robert. Just the girls, so this is a shock to all of Stepford. :lol: I don't share space easily wif people, to say the least.

Oh! Misdiagnosed.....ya missed it by ONE! But you can still stick around.

      Villi damage is caused by celiac disease, which does not happen in NCGS, although some people with NCGS do have elevated antibody levels. Some people with NCGS who have the genes for celiac disease may end up developing celiac disease, so in some people NCGS may be a precursor to celiac disease, but more research needs to be done on NCGS. Both low iron and vitamin D are common symptoms of celiac disease. Also, regarding beer:

      It’s true that some vaccines contain small amounts of preservatives, stabilizers, or adjuvants to ensure their safety and effectiveness. For example: Thimerosal: A preservative that contains ethylmercury (not to be confused with methylmercury, which is toxic). Most routine vaccines no longer contain thimerosal, except for some flu vaccines in multi-dose vials. Aluminum: Used in very small amounts as an adjuvant to boost the immune response. The amount is far below levels considered harmful, but if you suspect an aluminum allergy, it’s worth discussing with your doctor. Sugar alcohols: These are sometimes used as stabilizers, but they are generally well-tolerated. If you have a known intolerance, you can ask about specific ingredients in each vaccine. Since you mentioned an intolerance to metals and jewelry, it’s a good idea to follow up with allergy testing, as you planned. This can help identify specific metals (e.g., nickel, aluminum) to avoid. Your doctor can then guide you on whether any vaccine ingredients might be a concern. Since the Mayo Clinic has already identified potential allergies, it might be helpful to consult an allergist or immunologist. They can review your medical history, perform tests, and provide personalized advice on vaccines and their ingredients. While it’s important to address your intolerances, it’s also worth considering the risks of not being vaccinated. Many vaccine-preventable diseases can have serious consequences, especially for those with underlying health conditions.

      @Manaan2, I was on Miralax for several months after I crushed three vertebrae and fractured my hip.  The compression fractures of my vertebrae affected the Vagus nerve that stimulates digestion and intestinal movement, peristalsis. Miralax just didn't relieve the constipation I was experiencing at all.  Nothing budged.  I tried Milk of Magnesia (magnesium oxide) which pulls water into the digestive tract, and found that rather harsh and dehydrating.   Bad idea. I was already taking thiamine in various forms, Benfotiamine, TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl  disulfude), Lipothiamine and Allithiamine.  Click on my name, then Activities in the pull down menu to get to my blog to learn more about my journey with thiamine.   Since we need more thiamine when we are physically ill and emotionally stressed, I decided to focus on TTFD,  Benfotiamine, and magnesium l-threonate.  Within a week of increasing my doses a bit, my constipation was gone.  It took several more months to heal the compressed nerve damage.  For pain, I take a combination of TTFD, Pyridoxine B 6, and  Cobalamine B12 which together have an analgesic effect.  I can't function with pharmaceutical pain killers, besides they cause constipation.   Mechanisms of action of vitamin B1 (thiamine), B6 (pyridoxine), and B12 (cobalamin) in pain: a narrative review https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35156556/ Yes, I did just stop the Miralax, but I wasn't on it as long as your daughter.  Yes, there's a difference between adults and children.  Yes, my circumstances were different than your daughter's, but thiamine deficiency does affect the nerves and the brain.  A twenty percent increase in dietary thiamine causes an eighty percent increase in brain function (which activates the Vagus nerve and controls digestion).   I recommend you visit Dr. Chandler Marrs' website, hormonesmatter.com.  Dr. Marrs worked with Dr. Derrick Longsdale, a pioneer in thiamine research, specifically with children and autism spectrum disorders.  She has been very helpful to me when I reached out to her.  She would be better able to guide you about your daughter's care. https://hormonesmatter.com/sibo-ibs-constipation-thiamine-deficiency/#google_vignette Do stay in touch, please.  You can start another thread or personal message me any time.  My heart goes out to you, your husband, and especially your daughter.   Namaste

      @knitty kitty  The information you've provided is invaluable!  I have a lot more homework to do before we make the official switch but you have significantly increased my hope that we can get her off Miralax (she started at 3 years old and is almost 8!).  This weekend my husband and I plan to solidify all the details for a start point, then adjust as we go along.  I realize that everyone's body is different, then there's also the fact that she's a child but just out of curiosity if you don't mind sharing and if you'd rather not, no problem at all-how long did you take Miralax before switching and when you switched, did you just completely stop the Miralax or was there a period where you did Miralax and the supplements?  I plan to research that piece this weekend but just curious what you did.

      Scott, thanks so much for the thoughtful replies. My doctor did actually just re-order thyroid labs to see what is going on with my TPOs. I agree that will be interesting information.  I think I know the answer to this, but as far as the biopsy . . .. that would be quite conclusive as far as celiac goes, but a negative result would not rule out NCGS, correct? Does NCGS also cause damage to the lower intestine/leaky gut?  I appreciate the thought that I should be open-minded to other causes. I did not have dysautonomia on my radar, so I will look into that. From a quick scan at the potential symptoms it seems like almost anyone could convince themselves they have it, very broad! I can see why that is a tricky one to diagnose. I did also show low vitamin D, I'm in New England so that is somewhat common. I have a memory of low iron on some lab result as well but I can't find it, so I'll look into that. My cholesterol is high too, so working on that.  While the initial adjustment was tough, I have actually adapted fairly well to going gluten-free at home. The tough part for me is I love eating out and traveling, so that has been a challenge. I suppose if the answer ends up being NCGS then I could maintain a mostly gluten-free diet but also experiment with the occasional splurges. Snowboarding just doesn't feel right without a beer in the lodge . . ... cider is just not the same!  Thanks again.
