I personally find my next neurology appt to be appropriate. Perfect timing to kill my holiday spirit.
Dr. KIJ, pretty much told me all I needed to know after the MRIs -with and without thank you. No bleed, so Dr KIJ was looking for clots and ordered the ban on having fun and the added bonus of a CCB.
The second or was it third (?) round of tests were to detect clots. I *assume* something was discovered. Why do I assume this? Two day later some very board person from the neurology dept at the hospital ask where she could phone in my script for coumadin-yippee another medication (we need a sarcastic smilie).
So, I am in no hurry to see Dr. KIJ again. Each time brings more medication, although I did recieve a lovely magazine today called, Stroke Smart AND an invitation to a seminar/workshop on improving my motor skills. Whoo Hoo. (Again I find I am in need of a sarcastic smilie).

BTW, oldest son and i had a lovely run.

Steep and Cheap had these: SmartWool Spectrum Twister Pant - Women's

I have been drooling over these and my size is gone, gone, gone! Ugh.

If anyone wears a L or XL, they still have some left.

Not possible. We are FIBs. And you are Cheeseheads. You can't help it. Neither can we.

this is they way it is. you don't ask questions.

same the reason why i hate the vikkings and da bears. i don't know how it started, but it is the way it is.

BM3 sorry about Dr. KIJ. just do be careful and don't do anything you don't think you can handle. don't want anything to happen to you.

Geezz, CWR ( I mean Weasel) who would have ever thought such a redneck lived in Alaska?? And I for one am da*med impressed with that catch!

so what are you and Dar saying? are you two hinting at something?

What's a FIB???

I know what a Cheesehead is, of course, being from MN.

I forgot to include in my trip report that we visited the Seabreeze Winery in Panama City Beach, and bought a case of all-Florida wine, (2 each of 2 reds, 3 whites, and blueberry, at $9.50/bottle - 15%!) and a take-home frozen ziplock bag of wine slushy! What a great idea!

My solar lights were cool while they lasted. Can't wait to see them tomorrow after a full charge.

I hate how it gets dark so early. At least the torts got to go out and graze while I was gardening.

Hey, Knot!! I too have cleaver love. I bought my first one when I learned to cook Chinese, but I almost never use any other knife now. One cheapy and two almost cheapies have lasted me my entire adult life until a few weeks ago when I treated myself to a very nice Henkels. (Yes, I know I often complain of near-death broke-ness, but this was on my JC Penney charge!) I especially like it for prepping chicken, where you can slice the breast into thinner whole pieces, like two or three times (help me, X, it would be sagittally in CT terminology!) and then into very thin strips. Can't do that with a regular knife. I find other knives very awkward. You can't pick anything up with them!

Do you know Ebert & Roper (well, the replacement for the one of them that is sick) gave Jackass Two two thumbs up??? I want to go see it again. We saw Saw 2. Too predictable.

I miss Steve Irwin.

Have no fear, I shall be fine and I never run alone and we have a cell phone with us just in case.

I'll let IL guy in on the hat discussion cuz he'll get a kick out of it. THEN I'm gonna kiss 'em!

As long as he learns to roll his bill and wear the hat properly.

The rivalry's gone on forever... Here's a blip from wikipedia on the Championships part of the rivalry...


and this from Wikipedia:
The Packers and the Chicago Bears have played each other more times than any other two teams in the NFL, and thus are often mistakenly credited as having the oldest rivalry in the league. The crosstown rival Decatur Staleys/Chicago Staleys/Chicago Bears and Racine Normals/Racine/Chicago/St. Louis/Arizona Cardinals, the two last existing charter members of the NFL, played each other twice in 1920, a year before the Packers entered the league. However, the Packers and the Bears have played each other many more times than any other 2 NFL teams and thus, while not the oldest rivalry in the league, it is the most storied.

Not much info on the Vicks... sorry.

i went to the gym here on campus and worked out. was walking around in shorts in the gym, outside and to dinner. either the fact that i'm stark white or the only one in shorts while everyone is in winter jackets, i got some odd looks.

I am so happy!! She ate a live mouse, that I had rubbed all over Mr. Toad. Mr. Toad is still suspicious of this process- he's sure that nothing good can come from it, but has been proven wrong so far. He even jumped into BF's wine glass (empty) during the scenting procedure...(But he was greatly rewarded by as many crickets as he could eat!!) Wow, what a relief.
