    Dearest grad program--
    While I can see that you have the best intentions and that you're all busy doing other things, can you please see fit to somehow get us the information that we need? I don't appreciate being told two days in advance when safety training is, or that we'll get an e-mail (which never actually appears).
    At least I don't leave slime trails.

    Dear Mimi, good luck with it and big hugs. Also, if you can find it, Citravescent is really AWESOME for bladder infections. And I speak from experience.

    Dear cyclist who overtook me this morning,

    I couldn't help but notice. Perhaps your tights need replacing. Because the lycra was so thin, I could see BOTH BUTTCHEEKS clearly along with the thong you were wearing. I'm not even going to inquire about the thong. :S

    A serious 24 hours of drinking lots of fluids has unclogged and returned my bladder functions to normal. strange... I'll keep drinking lots but not so much as last night because i want to SLEEP!!!!

    my DH is getting more drugs at one time than he's ever had but he seems to be doing just fine too.
    thanks for all the hugs.

    to whom it may concern.
    Yes, I imagine you DID think it was funny when I thought I'd cured my UTI with lots of juice. Ok ok, I went to the doctor. I hope you're happy, she even gave me a flu shot.

    I feel your pain. I went through a period a couple of years ago where I had about five UTI's in six months' time. Honeymoon cystitis (of sorts). It was a blast. What made it even worse is that antibiotics would almost always induce a yeast infection. Needless to say, I started to have a lot of anticipatory anxiety, which is not really what you want in an intimate relationship. I ultimately started taking a preventative antibiotic called Proloprim on an as needed basis. No UTIs since. I did learn the hard way that once infection sets in, no amount of cranberry juice or water will cure it. It's better to just bite the bullet and call your doc.

    I hope you start feeling better!
    Live with intention. Walk to the edge. Listen hard. Practice wellness. Play with abandon. Laugh. Choose with no regret. Continue to learn. Appreciate your friends. Do what you love. Live as if this is all there is.
