Imagine...posting when you've nothing to say!! I cannot imagine doing this.....

Had to snortle again over this sentence :lol: :lol: yes, imagine indeed!

Susie- please find something to say all my other sillies have abandoned me in the vortex today....

:lol:

OMG....

Okay...this is a GREAT addition to the list of things I must take on our trip tomorrow. Me, outside snowshoeing with a cowbell in my pouch, for any kind of reason...Me, trying to wake up snoozing children for the beckoning ski hill...Me, somewhat inebriated, throwing on loud, pounding dance CDs and needing that final element to make me an unforgettable dancing, party chick....

Oh gawd....first the frantic search for absinthe, and now I must find me a cowbell and thingy to hit it with.....

oh dear gawwwwwwwwd........ :lol:

A mad cowbell-lady drinking a bottle of clouded grOeen......

Well, we lost another newbie . . . must have been Em'd.

:lol:

Or.......fall on your arse and get a stigmata of someone

Well, the machine came in and the tower is a rich glossy black and it does calculations like you wouldn't believe. So he decided it should be a black goddess. And now we have Nefertiti. And she is amazing.

Had to Google Montalcini and Hypatia......she's a smart one, that wacky Jess. Love Nefertiti.

Did I comment on the Susie's piano tale???....wasn't it fab???? :)

OMG yes!!! ...ok, he's grown the fur a bit - & has clearly been using the straighteners..(gotta look your best in CA you know

OMG - is Yeti still in California? Yes - hair-straightening and teeth-bleaching.....maybe some augmentational surgeries of some kind?

:wub:

I emailed kissey the piano story - he read it whilst on my couch - and cried..... :)

OMG - what I forgot to tell you guys is how much I nagged my poor mother and dying father (bipolar nagging - 'tis a b!tch - lemme tell ya :ph34r: ) about that piano..... :huh: wretched girl........ :lol: but later realized why he kept putting me off - our piano had sold and he was keeping the secret from me.

(Careful .. . ... I believe an exposed peter IS grounds for cancellation of acct)

:ph34r:

:lol:

Fresno BevMo - checking today for absinthe.

MucoUsorium :lol: Lots and lots of green fluids, absinthetic displays (and samplings) and snomit......

A polite note is sufficient.

"Darling, gone off to the states for a bit. Be back soon. Hugs"

:lol: gahhhhh

Nicola - discussion on tights coming later.........

amanda - take some of the Phaerie into the meeting. ;)

Hey- I put my pants on one leg at a time just like you. Only difference is, after my pants are on, nobody cares what I say (wait- does that mean if I go pantless you guys may occasionally LISTEN to me?)

Amanda- a surprise trip-SWEET!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I LOVE trips and surprises....oh wait- could he be arranging a meet-up for Em for cowbellocktails and Absinthian merriment??????? :D:o

Oh, I see how it goes....I'll just be on my way but before I leave, let me all say how guilty you will all feel when I saw something eminently Emmable and you guys aren't around :P !!!!!!!!!

Computer geeks might find this amusing.

Hey- I put my pants on one leg at a time just like you.

You know something.....very often, I put my pants on both legs at the same time....in fact, I think I always do this, providing I'm sitting down--not easy to do standing, I'll assure you. It's faster, and hell, I just don't have time for one leg...then tne other...

Hmmmmm.....the little self-discoveries made whilst fraternizing with other Sillies.... :lol:

I want you ALL to come!!!!

Called my bro, who's coming here from Toronto after work, and we'll convoy it into Quebec tomorrow. I asked him if he has a cowbell. Not even a pause. He said, "Uh....nope. But my buddy across the street does. I can get it, if you want". No "HUH? COWBELL? WTF?" :lol::lol:

Well, we lost another newbie . . . must have been Em'd.

There we go!!

Last night, at Poor House Bistro for the band, I was sitting at some woman's table and another stranger took an open chair. I Em'd him tho, and when he went for a drink or to pee, he never came back. :lol::P

Hehe it's not like he grew up in a different house!!

Who has a cowbell and thingy, with no cows to go with it?!......

All 4 of the drummers we went thru in my last band, for one. (For one? For four? WTH?)

Have you been in his house? How do you know he doesn't have any cows? Just because you can't see them doesn't mean they are not there. They could be in the basement.

For all we know, his basement's been pasture-ized.

Well now, this is a challenge....there IS no bathroom in these cabins....only an outhouse. I do NOT plan to lie on the floor of an outhouse, though one certainly never knows, does one? :lol:

There is a main cabin, two smaller sleeping cabins, a cook shed, an adobe pit cooking area, and an outhouse on 60 acres tucked well away into the mountains..... :wub: I am out of my mind. Oh, no electricity, either. It's a bit like camping, only all the equipment is there.

I was a bit worried about how we'd have our ice for the Phaerie, but we will have ice chests. ;)

PTAUM!!!!!!!!!!!

OMG - there is a slight chance we'll be staying the night in Willow Glen, leaving Sat. morning (not too early)........ Um, we MIGHT be able to meet you for the QUICKEST (like, 10 minutes?) cup of wah-hock-in at your coffee obsession place!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :rolleyes:

don't etch it in stone - we will see how things play out but I'll call/email if this is a possibility.......

OMG! I have a night off from Kissey and MUST be productive!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I can't say I know how this relates to the should've-just-used-a-smaller-glass glass half-empty/half-full scenario, but I'd call the toilet in question 'LID UP', rather than 'seat down'.

Ah but we ARE all guilty of this egregious offense, as accused. :(

There's a chance (again) I'm going to Reno, but I say that more than I do it.

      I was tested back in 2017 and my TTG-IGA was mildly elevated (an 11 with reference range <4) but my EMA was negative and biopsy was negative. Fast forward to 2 weeks ago where I was like y'know what, I still have so many symptoms and I'm always so sick, I should repeat this, thinking it was not going to be positive.  I also found out through 23 and me that I do have the HLA-DQ2.5 gene so I thought it would be good to repeat given my ongoing symptoms. Well my blood work came back with a ttg-iga level of 152.6 with a reference range of <15 and my EMA was positive and EMA titer was 1:10 with reference range of <1:5. I guess I'm nervous that I'm going to do the biopsy and it's going to be negative again, especially since I also had an endoscopy in 2020, not to look for celiac but just as a regular 5 year thing I do because of all my GI issues, and they didn't see anything then either. I have no idea how long the EMA has been positive but I'm wondering if it's very recent, if the biopsy will show damage and if so, if they'll say well the biopsy is the gold standard so it's not celiac? I of course am doing all the things to convince myself that it isn't real. Do a lot of people go through this? I think because back in 2017 my ttg-iga was elevated but not a huge amount and my EMA was negative and my biopsy was negative, I keep thinking this time it's going to be different. But this time my ttg-iga is 152.6 with reference range <15, and my EMA was positive. BUT, my titer is only 1:10 and I keep reading how most people here had a ttg-iga in the hundreds or thousands, and the EMA titer was much higher. So now I am convinced that it was a false positive and when they do the biopsy it'll be negative.

      Welcome to the forum, @linnylou73! Are you claiming this based on a reaction or based upon actual testing?

      Sams club membermark columbian coffee is either cross contaminated or the pods contain gluten
    • KimMS
    • Scott Adams
      This varies a lot from person to person. I include foods that are not certified gluten-free but are labelled "gluten-free", while super sensitive people only use certified gluten-free. Both types of products have been found to contain gluten, so there are no guarantees either way: It you are in the super sensitive group, eating a whole foods based diet where you prepare everything is the safest bet, but it's also difficult. Eating out is the the most risky, even if a restaurant has a gluten-free menu. I also include items that are naturally gluten-free, for example refried beans, tuna, pasta sauces, salsas, etc., which have a low overall risk of contamination.
