ARCHIVED Just Need To Rant
tiredofdoctors replied to tiredofdoctors's topic in Introduce Yourself / Share Stuff
Okay, I hate to even post this because as you know, I think that my husband, Dave, is the greatest man in the world. He thinks that if we keep knocking over her trash cans enough, or move them up to our house, that eventually she's going to have a heart attack. I couldn't believe he said that! He said, "Let's face it . . . we couldn't get neighbors who... -

I like the analogy of "HOT HOT HOT HOT HOT HOT HOT HOT" only in reverse! That about says it all!!! Still saying though, to be able to ask for TP in a pub . . . he's got ummmmm......still politically correct, "the goods." Reminds me of the song "Stranded" that we used to sing when we were kids . . . . !!!!!!!!!! -

Hmmmm..... and you guys may not have the whole story . . . . . just remember: "What happens in Vegas, STAYS in Vegas." 'Nuff said. Funny thing about this is, now that I am over the initial shock of Friday, my brother-in-law has been HOUNDING me to write a book about my life, because it has been so freaking WEIRD! He tells me that his stomach... -

Triticus Toxicum -- I was specifically told to go to this thread to read what you had posted -- that you are bust-a-gut funny! Well, I wasn't misled! Steve . . . . . well, what can I say. You certainly have "the goods" to have someone ask your girlfriend for tissues. You have my utmost respect. Not going to say any more. Man, I love you guys!!!... -

My little sister had that! We had this fountain here . . . it was in the middle of the river, and it made a Fleur de Lis shape. . . We used to call that hairstyle the Louisville Falls Fountain 'do! It was AWFUL. I have some really "blackmail ready" pics of my sister with that hairstyle. ICK! -
ARCHIVED Who Is Alfred?
tiredofdoctors replied to lonewolf's topic in Introduce Yourself / Share Stuff
You guys are crackin' me up -- but I TOTALLY missed Alfred. What a shame . . . I would have enjoyed a little medical "banter" with him. He sounds like one of those people that put fake blood and a piece of liver in a plastic bag, then place it in their hand so that you can't see it. They put their hands on whatever area they "feel" you're having trouble... -

But wait . . . according to all the teen magazines on the racks at the checkout, feathered hair is back IN. Farrah Fawcett, you're in style again (especially since she basically never changed it)!!!!! -

Ya think??????? Each one talks to me at least 2 times while we're talking . . . not to mention each thing that they have to tell you . . . . ESPECIALLY if "Daddy" has been mean and made them get ready for bed, etc.!!! I don't see how you do it! I had two . . . 3 1/2 years apart (had miscarriages after that), but I thought it was so difficult! You are... -

THIS is the kind of thing I am talking about . . . . about 20 minutes ago, we had a knock at the door. I laughed, told Dave "Well, it's gotta be Linda." OH NO . . . . it was the POLICE. She called the Police because we had put our garbage bags on HER garbage area! Dave showed the officer the surveying pin located under the dirt. The officer said, "Well... -

Thank you guys VERY much. . . . I really appreciate it. Sometimes, a different perspective really helps. I think that I am just so tired from the low blood pressure, from having to put forth so much exertion for the least little task, that it has just made me weary. I'm actually getting AFRAID to go to the doctor's anymore . . . every time I go, it seems... -

Karen, every time we look at her rickety privacy fence, which is 90% falling down, we talk about your neighbor from hell! I have a new jar of Neon Orange . . . in fact, I bought it so that Dave would paint her trash cans with her address . . . . Now I wish he had gone ahead and done it. And . . . . to add to my rant, I tested positive this week at the... -
I am just having one of those days . . . weeks . . . months -- whatever you want to say. I am having the absolute worst luck. I couldn't BUY a break. First, we're thinking we should just build an ark here. We've had 7+ inches of rain in two days. To make matters worse, our crazy next door neighbor didn't like having water drainage going through her...

Hey Bev -- I'm sorry you're having such a crappy time. How was your doctor's appointment? (Had to throw that in quickly, sorry.) It's really hard to know why such horrible things happen. I SURE wish I had the answers. All I know is that the Big Guy and I are going to have a REALLY long talk when I get there . . . . He has some 'splainin to do . . . ... -

I haven't talked with her today . . . I REALLY hope that she will consider having the bloodwork done for Celiac. With me having the antigliadin issues, particularly -- I didn't know that I had the trouble until I was bumping into walls and falling all the time. She has always had a "finicky" stomach. I feel relatively secure that my mom is Celiac . . ... -

You do NOT have a pick-up in the front yard. You have a washing machine that doesn't work on the front porch, a CAR on cinder-blocks in the front yard. The pick-up is usually 23 feet tall, due to the extra-extra-large wheels that are on it. It is also VERY shiny. I mean, look at bass boats. We LOVE glitter!!!!! You'd better run and duck!

Now we're doing the "will she / won't she" dance with regard to taking the meds. The pulmonologist says the liver enzymes have to be three times normal limit . . . . allergist says 2 times normal limit before declining to administer INH. One more liver function panel . . . . then we'll see. She's about as tired of this as it gets . . . . . I think she... -

Thanks, Jestgar. It is pretty scary. I am glad that the doctors are being cautious . .. the last thing she needs to develop is liver failure. I feel sure that they are going to do a hepatitis panel on her when she gets back to U of K. That is where her health insurance is covered. I AM glad that she is going to see her pulmonologist, however. With... -

I still think his hair is "quite lovely", also. I do think a hair thread isn't a bad idea for some fun, though! I'm thinking of "low-lighting" mine a little . . . . it is getting to be fall around here, so there's no "we drive a convertible" excuse for my hair being THIS light! (Actually, it's the "I'm so gray I can't stand it" excuse, but, at 44, there...
