That's actually pretty cool. Emphasizes how important, and how much a part of our lives voting is.

My husband drove by the school we vote at on his way to work this morning, 20 minutes before the polls opened--and there was already a line out the door!

Voted on the way to work today :)

jerseyangel - I think that is neat you are going with your son for his first time voting. I remember going with my parents the first time.

I am looking forward to the phone calls stopping!! Yea.....

Every night when we get home from work there have been 1-3 messages on our answering machine.

Have a nice day everyone.

I'm glad to be a part of history in the making. I have a feeling that tonight won't be the end of it, though. :huh:

Yay, I just voted an hour ago. In my small city of Parlier CA., no line, I just walked right in and voted. I got two stickers, so does that mean two free coffees? :P Just kidding. I never voted before in my life!! It felt good, like my vote made a big impact.

My voice was heard today. So yeah it was good. :)

Curse being 17...oh well, one of my friends turns 18 tomorrow, I can't even imagine how frustrated I would be. But she said you can influence more votes than you can cast, which is very true, especially given that she lives in ohio! So here's my influence: get out there and vote NOW!!! It's worth a few minutes (or even hours if the case may be) of your life. And if you don't vote, no complaining for the next 4 years!

Heh, my stepsister's first election was in 2004 and she was going to school in ohio at the time...11 HOUR POLL WAIT!! But her professors thought it was cool. Don't let long lines discourage you!! It's just too important to vote!

Wow. You (and your friend) are a lot more with it than I ever was at 17.

Good for you!

OK . . . we're back . . . had to take pink-eye son with me . . . kept telling him not to touch anything. He did great (just played his Nintendo DS the whole time). It was about an hour and 10 minutes.

Did it too!

Here's the real question:

Which one of them had the friendliest celiac agenda?

Maybe we need our own lobby.

The Celiac Sprue Association, Celiac Disease Foundation and the Gluten Intolerant Group do wonderful work on our behalf.

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      Gluten related ??

      By Colleen H · Posted

      Hi everyone  This has been a crazy year so far... How many people actually get entire sensory overload from gluten or something similar ?  My jaw is going nuts ..and that nerve is affecting my upper back and so on ...  Bones even hurt.  Brain fog. Etc  I had eggs seemed fine.   Then my aid cooked a chicken stir fry in the microwave because my food order shorted a couple key items .   I was so hungry but I noticed light breading and some ingredients with SOY !!! Why are we suffering with soy ? This triggered a sensitivity to bananas and gluten-free yogurt it seems like it's a cycle that it goes on.  The tiniest amount of something gets me I'm guessing the tiny bit of breading that I took one tiny nibble of ...yikes ..im cringing from it .. Feels like my stomach is going to explode yet still very hungry 😔  How long does this last?! Thank you so much

      Celiac getting dentures

      By gfmom06 · Posted

      I have had orthodontic work done. The 3M invisalign material was no problem. BUT my retainers are another matter. They seemed okay for a few months. Now, however, they cause a burning sensation on my tongue, gums and insides of my lips. The burning sensation is now spreading to my throat. I notice it when I breathe. This is annoying and interferes with my enjoyment of eating. I am visiting with my provider tomorrow. We'll see where this goes from here.

      Is this celiac?

      By Beverage · Posted

      Exactly which blood tests were done? There are a few different ones and some docs don't do them all. Also, your results and reference ranges for each?
