tom, we might not be as nutty as Susie, but we all make our decisions the same way, by the way we feel at the moment so we're likely to change our mind. I believe men make decisions in a more rational manner so are less likely to change their mind.

Dear lord!!!....'choppy bangs', 'Long eyebrow bangs', 'Fringe bangs' ... :blink: bangs, bangs, bangs!!!!.....how about 'hair around face' (insert emoticon with hair) :lol:

I've always called my falling-on-the-forehead, above-the-eyebrows hair my "fringe". This word is never used to refer to this in North America; we all use "bangs" over here. But I love the sound of "fringe"...and it IS a fringe, for heavens sake:

fringe (frindz) 1. n. an ornamental border // an outer margin.

"Bangs" just sounds so...violent?

Does no one remember that nikki post?

You aren't all still hooked on SoyDelicious fake ice cream are u?

Will no one ever acknowledge that a 3 or 5 or 7 or 9 day food elimination test really may not always be long enough?

Ok - now to the point . . . . . . .how is it possibly the job of a phone surfer to "find it"!!!!!!!!? :lol::lol::P :P

Long-time OMGers? Is Dingy a bore in the winter months?

I was still carded 1/2 the time @ 35. (Did I say that already?) Then kinda stopped going out. :(

Strangely I also looked *older* as a teen. Was in a union @14! Always was ready to buy the beer, w/ fake ID help, natch. :)

gaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!!!! :lol: Dingy is never a bore. It's just that, I think I become slightly delirious and more - approachable, maybe? -

with an overcooked and wilted brain. Also maybe more giggly.

Wait. that isn't true. I"m always giggly. Does the baked brain make one GIDDY? :P

and WTH is wrong with this forum, spread about the entire page now??????

HELP! what happened to me pages? am I the only one?

WooHoo!! checked off everything on my to do list!

Just collecting up my homework and letting my hair down (which now strongly resembles muppet hair) and heading out for the boat.

From my mom:

Yeah, we ran out of marbles a long time ago. :lol:

Your husband will now wonder when you hit your head.

tom Contributor
Tom, so no dating for almost a decade? Is this going to change now that you're feeling better?

Aargh I meant to answer this yesterday!!

Aaannnnnd earlier today too.

So, here goes.

Yes

Yes

<bow> thanguooverimucsh

CarlaB Enthusiast

Tom, glad to hear it. I can't believe it's been over a decade! :o

tom Contributor
Tom, glad to hear it. I can't believe it's been over a decade! :o

Well, "Marbles", that wasn't entirely true, but it's not like this is the SeriousYak thread!! :lol::P

No one seriously believed I had one word answers did they?

But I *did* mean to answer this yesterday!! Also earlier today, but no time to find it! :o

1st off, it's changed already. Didn't I mention that on my last SJ trip I had 2 dates? Mei both times. We had dated ~8-9 yrs ago. She was the only one w/ same ph #!! :D

I *had* to have mentioned how ridiculous it was to be locked out the apt. complex while she's supposed to be on her way!!

Hadn't eaten & all my food's up there. Hadn't showered or even had a chance for simple splash on face. Propped open one door, but ph reception so bad I can't still see door and make/recv calls. Case of Redbridge (SJ boys wanted some of their own) left upstairs at Apt door, then can't even get back up to IT before Mei shows.

It's after 2 and I've been up since 6 but haven't eaten or anything and so we end up starting a :lol: non-date date w/ my Redbridge in her trunk, going to WhF so I can eat!!!!!

4 hrs later I realized that was not a non-date!

We went out the following night too.

But she's not girlfriend material for NoSoyBoy.

(Too many words? Which are better left untyped?)

She wasn't a girlfriend 8-9yrs ago really anyway. Just off & on dating.

Last girlfriend was '96 and we broke up after Pete died & celiac's depression wouldn't let go.

Did see her and some others occasionally thru '02 or '03. Once celiac's full brunt got on a roll, I didn't see anyone.

So yeah - it's pretty dang ridiculous.

And I don't even *want* to meet anyone in Phx!! Well, maybe that needs to be amended to "anyone I REALLY like". Hehe ;)

OMG with the way I get carried away w/ everything these days, some luc . . . . . . .is there a delicate way to finish this sentence?

<just did>

:lol::lol:

Susie's new dating adventure has me looking more favorably on my chances of finding someone w/ enough of the same interests etc.

Now who do I know in SJ w/ dogs?? <a mild layer of canine stench *works* for some ppl!>

(My gawwwwd it was so easy when on stage w/ sax somewhere every week!! :P )

CarlaB Enthusiast

Now, if you and Mei end up together, you will have the romantic story that it was because she was the only one with the same phone number as last time you were there. :lol:

Oh, and after posting a couple times on my phone, yes, I can understand having one word answers! This is because I can type very, very fast!

Words better left untyped? "She's not girlfriend material" :o , how cold! :o:o;)

And need I say, "Uh, oh"? When Susie said she didn't want to meet anyone, look what happened!

Mtndog Collaborator
Tom, glad to hear it. I can't believe it's been over a decade! :o

Tom- Practice on those AZ girls and then when you find one you REALLY like, lay on the soy free charm :D:wub: :wub: :wub:

tom Contributor

Practice what exactly?

You mean talking the talk? Being a cunning linguist?

:P

I'm all over that!!

Now, if you and Mei end up together, . . . .

. . . . .

Words better left untyped? "She's not girlfriend material" :o , how cold! :o:o;)

Nah, she was fine for then, but not now. Oy I'm actually thinking she could be a good friend.

"How Cold!"?? No no no I'm not saying it to HER, just here!

It's not like she'll ever end up in this forum AND crack the code that reveals my acct name!!! :lol:

And need I say, "Uh, oh"? When Susie said she didn't want to meet anyone, look what happened!

Nyet!!!!!!!

I didn't want to meet anyone for YEARS and look what didn't happen, EmptyJar Spice!! (nah I like "Marbles" better :lol: )

No way am I going to get involved HERE while moving THERE!!

Bite your tongue! :P <ow!> :angry:

      If you successfully digest gluten with enzyme supplements so it won’t give you side effects, your challenge won’t be worthwhile because the digested fragments of gluten also won’t stimulate antibody production or cause intestinal damage.

      Thanks for the resource! I will check it out!

      You can search this site for prescriptions medications, but will need to know the manufacturer/maker if there is more than one, especially if you use a generic version of the medication: To see the ingredients you will need to click on the correct version of the medication and maker in the results, then scroll down to "Ingredients and Appearance" and click it, and then look at "Inactive Ingredients," as any gluten ingredients would likely appear there, rather than in the Active Ingredients area. https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/

      Living with celiac disease can be especially hard when you’re in a smaller town and don’t have many people around who truly understand it, so you’re definitely not alone in feeling this way. Ongoing fatigue, joint pain, and headaches are unfortunately common in people with celiac disease, even years after diagnosis, and they aren’t always caused by gluten exposure alone. Many people find that issues like low iron, low vitamin D, thyroid problems, other autoimmune conditions, or lingering inflammation can contribute to that deep exhaustion, so it’s reasonable to push your doctor for more thorough blood work beyond just vitamin B. As for eggs, it’s also not unusual for people with celiac disease to develop additional food intolerances over time; tolerating eggs as an ingredient but not on their own can point to sensitivity to the proteins when they’re concentrated. Some people do better avoiding eggs for a while, then carefully testing them again later. Most importantly, trust your body—if something consistently makes you feel awful, it’s okay to avoid it even if it’s technically “allowed.” Many of us have had to advocate hard for ourselves medically, and connecting with other people with celiac disease, even online, can make a huge difference in feeling supported and less isolated.

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @Cecile! It is common for those with celiac disease to develop sensitivity/intolerance to non-gluten containing foods. There is a high incidence of this with particularly with regard to dairy products and oats but soy, eggs and corn are also fairy common offenders. Like you eggs give me problems depending on how they are cooked. I don't do well with them when fried or scrambled but they don't give me an issue when included in baked and cooked food dishes or when poached. I have done some research on this strange phenomenon and it seems that when eggs are cooked with water, there is a hydrolysis process that occurs which alters the egg protein such that it does not trigger the sensitivity/intolerance reaction. Same thing happens when eggs are included in baked goods or other cooked dishes since those recipes provide moisture.  So, let me encourage you to try poaching your eggs when you have them for breakfast. You can buy inexpensive egg poacher devices that make this easy in the microwave. For instance:  https://www.amazon.com/Poacher-Microwave-Nonstick-Specialty-Cookware/dp/B0D72VLFJR/ Crack the eggs into the cups of the poacher and then "spritz" some water on top of them after getting your fingers wet under the faucet. About 1/4 teaspoon on each side seems to work. Sprinkle some salt and pepper on top and then snap the poacher shut. I find that with a 1000 watt microwave, cooking for about 2 minutes or slightly more is about right. I give them about 130 seconds. Fatigue and joint pain are well-established health problems related to celiac disease.  Are you diligent to eat gluten-free? Have you been checked recently for vitamin and mineral deficiencies? Especially iron stores, B12 and D3. Have you had your thyroid enzyme levels checked? Are you taking any vitamin and mineral supplements? If not, you probably should be. Celiac disease is also a nutrient deficiency disease because it reduces the efficiency of nutrient absorption by the small bowel. We routinely recommend celiacs to supplement with a high potency B-complex vitamin, D3, Magnesium glycinate (the "glycinate" is important) and Zinc. Make sure all supplements are gluten-free. Finally, don't rule out other medical problems that may or may be associated with your celiac disease. We celiacs often focus on our celaic disease and assume it is the reason for all other ailments and it may not be. What about chronic fatigue syndrome for instance?
