  2. slightly redolent of Soup Nazi! Yes Rinne, 50 here also, and 50 more of the Much Ado about Nothing Bars. (Donna you are a silly goose!) OMG soft chocololate chips in the ice cream......*sigh* How indeed - I am envious - on the topic of ice cream, must mention my favorite - - Double Rainbow French Vanilla. OMG -...
  3. My girls (dogs) and I are just aching for you, and will say a prayer for Emma's safe return. Just keep looking......I"ll tell you a story... I had the most wondrous cat in the whole world - - a tortoiseshell point Himalayan named Cookie ("Miss Cooks")......she had lived at one home, my childhood home, her entire life. When she was 12, I moved about...
  4. OMG that is so true! It's just that I"ve been very thin and very muscular my entire life......I CANNOT STAND the feel of weight on my body, even though I do look much more healthy. And guys do pay attention, BECAUSE I STILL GOT IT GOIN ON, you know there are just pretty slim pickin's around here. Harrumph!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Most...
  5. at the first opportunity, I am going to get me some fake boobs. NOT oversized, though. Because, when I was super skinny, the boobs were proportianate.....now, the new belly necessitates the boobs. All will be fine, then. part 2 OMG - - - SCIENTIFICNESS NEEDED!!! Today my poop was quite solid, but had the WHITE STRIPES...
  6. Great information from everyone, Derek. Welcome to this surreal world....let me just promise you, it DOES get better! I was diagnosed at age 44, 16 months ago, and was so sick and weak that toward the end, it was an epic struggle to simply arise from bed, and it was truly HERCULEAN to walk my dogs. Severely anemic, white as a ghost, emaciated and...
  7. Yeah but I was WAY hotter before!!!! How sad, emaciated is considered so hot...... I am rather famous for those, it's the magnolia (I've done several renditions), quite large and took more than 100 hours, and SO heinous that I"ll never do another one. glad you like it. (oh, also slightly plagiarized from Ehret's illustration from the...
  8. no....won't...do...it.........staying OFF computer.......very busy, actually doing small paintings..... must..............stay...........away............from............. COMPUTER!!!!! OMG - - - this sounds like heaven.......I have to FIGHT to keep weight off, for the first time in my life....gained 25 pounds with gluten removal...
  9. oh my gaaaaaaaaaaaaawd.......there is no smell like it on earth - - - musky? that's a nice way of putting it! But I don't remember any smell coming off my dog when her glands are full......not until we get into the office, anyway, and they EXPRESS them...... Sandy - - - those of you who do this job are VEEEEEEERY brave!!!! Anywho...
  10. no silly in the warm weather, I just hose them off. Full bath every couple of weeks, a hose-off the rest of the time. speaking of extra syllables, people always add an extra one in MISCHIEVOUS - - which is a three-syllabled word - MISS-chi-vus - - - and they always say miss-CHEE-vee-us. OH!!!! and guess what else? my favorite...
  11. OMG - - I LOVE that show....used to watch cooking shows back to back on sat. mornings - - and this is the reason I'm now allowed - self-imposed rule - to have expanded cable - - would watch Food Channel endlessly - - remember? it's PORN for Celiacs..... HI NIKKI!! Yup, it's a REAL WORD!! The only word I"ve made up that people use here...
  12. realism is SO overrated But you see, I CAN do realism, and got stuck on that. I DESPERATELY WANT to do crazy abstracts - - to free myself from the constraints of the visual world.....and just PAINT! that is my new experimental stage. Donna and Carla -- the toxins - you can switch to acrylics - DID I SAY THAT??? - - or watercolor. I hate acrylics...
  13. glad you liked it. it is pretty funny when they catch the toads, frantically shaking their heads and frothing, tongues flickering madly to get the foam out....but bashing the poor frog - - that part I do not like at all......but can't stand to see the disgusting thing in lingering torture.... excellent, Bev. I also very much like the...
  14. Ursula - - many hugs for you. This is a tough one. Your daughter sounds incredibly selfish and self-centered.....to be so thoughtless, not only to her own mother, but to other food-sensitive family members as well....this is just an event that is going to have to be endured, I'm afraid. You must take from it what you can - - time with the grandchildren...
  15. Yup, we did too. broke the thermometers to have it come out....fascinating stuff.....we touched it too, of course, and I would not be surprised if yours truly actually put it in her mouth as a child.....always way too curious. Rachel - - the Lyme stuff - - - simply astonishing. I have several people who should read exactly what you posted, and I just...
  16. Um, that had a lot to do with Yours Truly, I was menstrual, and it was a full moon, and I was just a little spastic - - the only scientificness I contributed was a bit of etymology..... EXCELLENT! Hey Donna - - what is that cute birdie in your avatar? and count me in for the fluffy slippers and down sofa sit-in! well...
  17. I think BOTH of them would scare you guys. How does one know if one has candida? (I know, I know, but I was never paying attention to ALL of the scientifness because there is just so much of it and it confuses me!) because I could literally eat sugary treats ALL DAY, EVERY DAY and must really work at limiting my sweets intake. It has...
  18. Yup, mostly Annie. she is the snuggler. Tika - - rather aloof in her golden years.....wants to be left alone more. but I stop and kiss her about 50 times a day. The grandma sofa sounds fabulous! ohhhhhhhhhh excellent! Touchee!!!
  19. Murph - from what I remember about "an" or "a" before the H (glottal sound in linguistics - - I am such a geek), that is really all about preference - but A historic is much more common. oh.....I am bugged by SO many spoken errors by newscasters, I can relate......number one being "the SierraS" - plural - when it is The Sierra.....argh! and we live right...
  20. Hi Murph - -- words definitely do take on different meanings and intonation over the years. I shall have to go look at my HUGE webster's from 1960, and see what that says. More etymology of scatology (and another interesting French Acadian word I'd never heard of, at the top of this article): Open Original Shared Link Head toward the bottom...
  21. How heinous! I would not be able to live with this forever....I know Patti suffered with it too. Donna - sounds like a great appointment todya, let's hope you sleep better! And the green toes w/ fluffy pink slippers - - sounds fantastically whimsical! well, where has the day gone? It's now only a half an hour until Prairie Home Companion...
  22. Awww Lisa, that is sad....hugs and prayers coming your way. I do hope she gets to see her home again......will be thinking of you. She is lucky to have you.
  23. check this out: Open Original Shared Link um, please see second definition. But yes, we are a little obsessed! (rightly so, of course)...... but Murph, I am sure you are aware, any time "ology" is added to the end of a word, it means, the study of. I briefly researched the root word SCAT, but ran out of time.....will do later. ...
  24. I did say erudite. one of my favorite words. Pronounced AIR-yoo-dite......means quite well-read and scholarly. We really only need a little bit of that though, too much and men just become too difficult for us to manage (can you say, SUSAN'S DAD??? God rest his soul). Andrea - - wow, Talitha DOES sound like a handful. Since I"m not a parent...
  25. Heinous, heinous docotr. tsk tsk. Yup, you need to fire HIS arse. And use these parting words, "my shadow shall never darken the doorway of your useless practice again." HARRUMPH!!!!
