Nanci, meant to say sorry about your friend, too. I'm impressed when people are able to start riding again after an accident like that.

I'm sure Choco misses you, too.

The guy giving a tour at the Library of Congress yesterday had no arms! What a challenge. Whew.

I am *SO GLAD* that I don't get my period. What an enormous, painful mess that was for so many years. Plus the mood swings, enhanced by the fact of all the pain. I don't think I'll even try going off the Nuva ring until I'm 50 (to see if I would still get a period or if I were in menopause). Since all my women kin have had hysts in their late 30s, no one has any idea when "we" go through the Change. Hoping soon for you. After her hyst, my mom bought a new mattress to celebrate. Never bleed on it again.

(There, that should have driven away any male lurkers! :p )

Off to the airport! :D

We have her room almost unpacked - I think that's helping. Yeesh. Fishfry on the other hand is oblivious and apparently going through a growth spirt - he is eating everything in sight! Look out!...

Sorry to hear that Fish, my family moved so often when I was a kid that my brother and I ended up going to 14 different schools BEFORE high school. I was more like Fishfry and had no problems with it, my brother, on the other hand, was just like FishJr and got physically ill whenever we moved. If it's any consolation it did pass within a month or so, he told me later that it really helped that I tried to help him ease into our new social settings (school, scouts, sports) by meeting people first and then introducing him. It took the pressure off of him to speak/interact first.

Remember the Cornsnake costume contest? I voted for Paris hilton with Tinkerbell (Tinkerbell is a baby mouse in a purse...)

Knot- First of all, we shall not let you cave and go back to her. You did the right thing and the perfect woman is out there just waiting for you.

My life in Knot's bra. That did not sound right. Warning, you may find out more about me than you care to know...I need much more support. I am without perk. The bra fits nicely, a little loose, but that would be from use. It looks fabulous on and I will definitely use it for cycling, but for running I need an under wire or three. Gravity has not been kind.

Inquiring minds want to know, did you discover the secret to shopping without money?

Kitsune- enjoy a drink for me. I have not been able to even have wine for a long, long time. I hate medication!

Lise-you are most likely on a plane as I type this. Your brother's wedding and reception sounded splendid. I am glad you had time to tour DC. I have never been to DC, so I truly enjoyed the tour you gave us.
So when will you being seeing J next?

Fishdr- do not change your name. We like you just how you are, although there have been some interesting suggestions.
I am sorry Fishjr is taking the move so hard. She will be better in a few weeks, probably less. How is Roux?

Snap-I am happy to hear you had a semi-decent day at work. So, you discovered mead. Enjoy!

((((Xrayted))))- I am so sorry to hear about the tragic death of your friend Joe. Prayers are being said for his friends and family.

Nanci-I was saddened to hear about your friends accident. I am so glad she was not injured more severely. Hopefully Maizey will eat today and Choco will be able to watch TV with you again soon. I am sure he misses you as much as you miss him.

BMo3 - hey, enjoy living in my bra! (not many get that privilege:p ) I'm glad you can get some use out of it, and now at least you know that it probably won't work for running so not to order that particular style from TE. (there is a style with more support, and I assume Susan will carry it) I have no "perk", either (kids will do that to you) but I also don't have much. Like I said, the medium fits and supports my 34C just perfectly. Bra heaven for me!

I'll find one of the perfect women, you'll find one of the perfect bras.

I never did discover how to buy groceries without spending money. But I did manage to get out of Costco for less than $20!!!

I am enjoying it. I could not go for a run this morning as it was still raining, so I worked out inside. The bra was great for that. It is really nice looking, for those who have not seen this style. I am a 36 B/C or maybe my size went down again.

If I kept trying to feed her every night till she felt like eating, she could become conditioned to feeding refusal.

Maizey, not Knot.

Jennifer's Plea

Prayers, positive thoughts, positive energy, well wishes, etc.,. are needed for tomorrow (Wednesday). Okay, starting now would work as well, I am nervous. :o

I go to hospital tomorrow for a round of tests. The first one begins at 9:30. Each of the three test should take about 1 hour each. I am going in sleep deprived (I cannot go to bed before midnight and must be up by 5am) and un-caffeinated (NO caffeine for 24 hours). Now the sleep deprivation I can live with, but NO caffeine is just plain cruel and inhumane. :eek:

Be fortunate none of you need talk with me tomorrow am. :D

Oh, they called this afternoon and did reassure me that should I have an induced seizure, proper medical personnel will be present-comforting, huh? :rolleyes:

I almost forgot to request well wishes for my poor family who must endure me tomorrow morning, and for me. Thanks!!

I'll be thinking of you tomorrow, BMO3. I hope things go smoothly, and the doctors provide some definitive answers.

On a different medical note, my doctor informed me at my annual exam in September that it was time for my first colonoscopy (the joy of turning 50). And a couple days later my health plan actually called to schedule it, and left a message on my home answering machine. Of course I put off calling back. Today, 6 weeks later, they called again and got me at work. So I couldn't procrastinate or weasel out of it. Just thought it was interesting the way they track down their patients. I suppose no one volunteers for that test. I've put off mammograms for 2 years at a time and they never called me (I did do it this year).

Has anyone heard from Beta? How is she surviving her 6 week bike exile? Maybe she found it easier to stay away from TE while she had to stay away from the bike?
