..hideous day here...grEy, windy, rain lashing down

Ah! This description is perfect for the English countryside I often see in me mind . .. ... . with Heathcliff striding through the misty, swampy hills, wind billowing up his black cloak .. . . . .

Amanda--it's so weird, I keep having dreams about moving again, looking for homes, etc. It's bizarre--I had another one just this AM before I woke up. What in hell????

Mygawd. . . . . in the last two weeks, I have suddenly had several appearaces in some foggy dreams of my ex-boyfriend from twenty years ago . . . . . What in hell is HE doing there? There he is, as I turn a corner or walk outside. Last night he told me that he is breeding....get ready. . . .ducks for a living. Then, in a horrific moment, I suddenly felt a back molar come free, and it came out!!

Holy crap. This probably means that my house is going to flood, or that my mom's gonna call me tonight, er sumfin. . . . . . ......

I just googled a guy I had a crush on in high school. He actually has a web page and something of a blog. It's one of those types of blogs that you start reading and think "Does this guy actually think that someone wants to read about how happy he is that Dr Who is back on the air?"

Weird to think of the paths that life takes you on (or, thankfully, doesn't take you on).

Mornin' all!

Yesterday I called the Dr that the CTscan was ordered through.

His receptionist wife said she'd tried calling me but wasn't succeeding, which makes no sense at all since it's the same number she used to call me both a few wks ago & a few yrs ago.

But I went for the >1 honey:vinegar ratio & told her my ph was being weird.

It was his idea originally that the plan was to just go over the report on the phone unless something warranted more.

She wouldn't tell me why, but I now have an office visit today @12:45p to go over it.

Hmmmm .. . ..when I 1st wanted an appt it was 2wk+ wait.

Hmmm :mixedemotionsface: <or is that faceS>

Latest blood test results due late in the week - maybe Thu, maybe Sat.

Of course that assumes all goes the way it's supposed to, which has been awfully rare lately.

Hey Gnichyyyyyyyyy!! You MUST know the tv show "Skins" that I've been watching on BBC-America, right?

I'm liking it.

They actually put up a disclaimer at the start of each show, w/ some variations.

Cracked me up enough to freeze-frame & copy 2 of them.

BE WARNED, THE FOLLOWING PROGRAM CONTAINS BRITISH ACCENTS. THEREFORE, PORTIONS HAVE BEEN SUBTITLED FOR THE EASILY CONFUSED.

ALTHOUGH SUPERFICIALLY CHARMING, THE BRITISH ACCENT IS DIFFICULT TO UNDERSTAND. THEREFORE, PORTIONS HAVE BEEN SUBTITLED FOR YOUR CONVENIENCE.

:lol:

Hey, Ptaoughmghmn!

So you're suddenly off to the doc this aft. . .. ..let us know what the scan shows.. . . .hmmm.. . . .maybe you're the one wif duck eggs in yer head?

Dear gawd, I know . . .. . . . .this phenomenon is very present within facebook, as well. Why do people think that their friends need to know how they are currently watching reruns of I Love Lucy, or making tomorrow's grocery list, or cleaning up Princess's furballs?

[nikki-uk]

MMmmmm....you reminded me, duck egg blue....my next painting project

"Does this guy actually think that someone wants to read about how happy he is that Dr Who is back on the air?"

Many, are however happy that Dr Who is back on air.....whether they care that he's happy I don't know

She wouldn't tell me why, but I now have an office visit today @12:45p to go over it.

Keep us posted Ptaum

[jerseyangel]

Yes Pataghumn, definately keep us posted!

Hi Nik

Gawd, finding old boyfriends.....on Facebook, I found (easily, I wasn't looking) the guy I had my phirst crush on ever!! I was just head over heels for this guy from afar from first grade to sixth. We went to the same church, too, where he was an alter boy. ( I still remember the tiny smiles between us as he and the priest gave out communion). We went all through school together, actually, but travelled in different circles after elementary school.

[nikki-uk]

Gawd, finding old boyfriends.....on Facebook, I found

I found an old school friend....we've emailed each other...she reeled off a list of names that she's kept in touch with........damned if I can remember WHO they are

I know! I checked the page of graduates from my high school the same year as me. Out of probably a dozen, I recoginized about 3. Now I know some of the women have a different last name, but I was surprised that I didn't remember more of them--or from my school as a whole.

One coincidence was that one guy I graduated with just recently did business with my sister and her husband and asked about me. I didn't know him very well, but at least I remember who he is!

[Jestgar]

Wish me luck. Headin' out for lunch with my drinkin' buddy ate her free pour spot. (Remember what happened last time.)

Enjoy!

First practice for Oliver! Cover your ears Susie, musical talk. For almost three hours we sang Open Original Shared Link. I may hate that song now.

*snort*

coverin' me ears. I looked at the youtubes of the Olivers for about......1/16's of a second and BAM! Clicked off.....

Soozie Avoidance Rating was high, but not as high as, say, Chicago - WORST WORST WORST and most TORTUOUS thing I've ever seen (well, only saw first 10 minutes and then the last five minutes of the movie enough heinosity for me, I tell ya)

Funny story...

Both Susie and I could only get through about the first 15 minutes! I'll let her tell her side, but I just couldn't get into it, and Gerard's beard and little braided thingy was distracting

Yes, 'tis true, I never turned it back on! didn't even care.....such a BOY movie, really. Well, it was phree, am taking it back today and don't feel guilty.

Julie - Suzanne Somers :lol: OMG - mailing list for life - that is hee-larry-us

why don't you consider litigation? Just sue her for harassment, maybe you can get TONS of money and take us all somewhere!

So, took the Ripper for his scan. As he was being moved into position under the scanning machine, all strapped down and lying board-straight, little arms at his sides, I hear him say to the technician, "I have SO MUCH snot in my nose all the time. Will you be able to see it in the pictures? All packed in there?"

I quickly returned, "Uh, Jack... . . .. don't ya think you see enough of it all day, every day, in your kleenexes, on your pillow, your shirt sleeves....?.. . . ."

Just loved this

Couldn't let this pass .. . .

HAPPY 2 YEAR PSILLYVERSARY!!!!!!!!!

Hershey's chocolate tastes like toliet poo! they just are continuing to disappoint the community that was built on their product. Thankfully I only work in Hershey- I live outside this area

Last night I dreamed I was getting married - I was mildly excited, as someone else had taken over (my MIL?) all wedding planning for me and it was very last minute, fianc

[DingoGirl]

wait..........the Bridesmaid Chapel in my dream was really more of a pollywog shape. just had to clarify. And it was very cool, I awoke trying to figure out how churches could have two of these dimly-lit, lovely pollywog-shaped rooms underneath their main chapels.....there was one on either side of the church in my dream, you see.

*snort* quite funny, but I don't know what The Skins are.

Yes, the charm of the Brits........Gail is ADAMANT taht she wants a British (titled, of course) boyfriend. WE are going to put her on match.com, UK. (not really, but 'tis a nice thought).

GAH!! Patti! Get on there are punch "Friend Request"!! Do it! Do it! You can exchange new, tiny smiles over the internet. . . . .. ....

Wish me luck. Headin' out for lunch with my drinkin' buddy ate her free pour spot. (Remember what happened last time.)

OMG. . ....... . Jess, there is a vital difference, now .. . . . you are uterusless. Not certain what this will mean - - perhaps you will have a sudden admirable capacity for alcohol, what wif the extra space in your abdomen. . . . . . . ....maybe you will be unable to function after one drink, as there is no longer a large organ there to absorb the alcohol. Hmmm. . . . ..tres interressant....let us know the outcome. . . . . . . .

Soooozie! You're also dreaming about losing teef! Anticipation of doom? Oh, dear. .. . .... Perhaps Elsie will be vomiting up more interesting items. . . more on this later. .. ..

[nikki-uk]

Teef dreams???......Open Original Shared Link covers it.

GAH!! Patti! Get on there are punch "Friend Request"!! Do it! Do it! You can exchange new, tiny smiles over the internet. . . . .. ....

Hee! I can just imagine his face (probably ) when I say--"hi! I'm Patty (as i was known by then) from third grade and Tuesday afternoon church school.....remember me?"

[DingoGirl]

.....but wait ..is that Susie's mailbox at the bottom of the page ????

of COURSE not, silly, no duct tape!!

[nikki-uk]

No worse than my ''hi!! It's Nicola Bennett (as was) from school...didn't we get caught smoking round the bike sheds?'' lol

OMG I am sooo lame <snort>

[jerseyangel]

You too, Soozle? Sillies gettin' physical!!

I'm really getting into this walking thing--I parked way at the end of the lot today at WalMart and walked there and then next door to the grocery. I read in Prevention that even shorter bits of walking/exercise add up throughout the day.

[Green12]

Am I the only goody two shoes here?!? Don't drink, don't smoke.......in fact, I believe Adam Ant wrote a song about me Never got in trouble or did anything remotely that would be considered against the rules, very boring, sigh.......

I'll be back to catch up!

[elye]

Ahhh...interesting summary on dreaming of tooth loss. Quite, hilarious, really, when applied to me. I particularly like this assertion:

Another rationalization for these falling teeth dreams may be rooted in your fear of being embarrassed or making a fool of yourself in some specific situation.

Right.. . . yeah, that's me. Always SO self-conscious, terrified of embarrassing myself. . . . .

Hee! I can just imagine his face (probably ) when I say--"hi! I'm Patty (as i was known by then) from third grade and Tuesday afternoon church school.....remember me?"

There is a new thing that you can do to a friend, besides the now old "poke", "hug', "send a beer to"- - dunno if any of you have noticed it, but it would work very well here, Patti, for this old love. You can "bump and grind" with ________.

Do you remember him being the type who'd be receptive to bumping and grinding wif you?

[jerseyangel]

Do you remember him being the type who'd be receptive to bumping and grinding wif you?

M-m-m......lemme think. Considering we were both about 11 the last time we had anything to do wif each other, I don't really know.

[Jestgar]

Back. Not toasted. I didn't realize that the bartender only waits on one section and I didn't choose a seat there. Ah well, now I know. Did have three pink fru-fru thingies. Pleasantly buzzed, but not alarmingly so.

Sooo, back to trying to figure out how to differentiate endotoxin contamination acting on endogenous TLR4 from a true effect of CD14/MD2 on TLR6.

Feel free to offer up suggestions.
