ok fine, she was in her late 30's early 40's kinda too old for me, plus the paramedic uniform isnt that flattering.

that AND what i meantioned before :)

Okay, I'll buy that. :p

Sorry this is late :o

Hi cat
Hi QP
Hi Jlo

How're you gals doing this evening :)

Hi bear. Got flu again grr. Doesn't seem like 5 minutes since the last dose. How's you?

Hi bear. Got flu again grr. Doesn't seem like 5 minutes since the last dose. How's you?

QP, tea and honey usually help me feel somewhat more human when I have the flu. I hope you feel better fast. {{{{QP}}}}

Bear, all is going well here. My son, husband and a couple of friends are playing Dungeons and Dragons. I am laughing at mishaps and missed traps. :)

JLo, Carolyn will make a wonderful mother from what I have seen and heard of her. I can't wait for pictures. ;)

Hi bear. Got flu again grr. Doesn't seem like 5 minutes since the last dose. How's you?

I think I'm coming down with a bit of the flu as well :(

Other than that, not bad thanks :)

Bear, all is going well here. My son, husband and a couple of friends are playing Dungeons and Dragons. I am laughing at mishaps and missed traps. :)



Bit jelous now, miss playing DnD :D

Poor Q, you are always sick! :(

You need to have a good feed of boiled dinner. When ever we were sick as children, my nannie used to make us boiled dinner.

Is it the actual flu, or is it a head cold?

Oops sorry guys :o

Hey Bear, Cat and Jlo, and Alty if you're still around.

Hey bella, hope your doing well, how's lady doing after the porcupine incident :)

Oh she's fine. I'm sure she hasn't learned her lesson :p

I'm doing good. Sorry to hear you're not feeling well. My friend stopped by with 5 new fish for me.

No worries bella, glad to hear she's all better now :D

Remember fish are friends, not food :)

Well these guys are my friends, but I LOVE to eat fresh fish! :p

Aslong as you don't do it in front of them I'm sure you'll be fine :)

Sigh. I wish I could travel. I'd settle for being able to get into the States. ;)

I'm single.

Just saying.

Aurora bell...

Your sig line pic reminds me of a previous ex.

Italian. Young. Spirited. Tough. The absolute definition of sexy.

And she had "sniper vision" according to the govt enforcement agency for which she worked.

Loved her form. Loved her fire and feistiness.

But I always had in the back of my mind "this girl can pick me off at 300 yards like nobody's biz and not break a nail"...

;)

im single.

just saying.

If I'm ever single you're number one on my "gotta date" list. :)

If I'm ever single you're number one on my "gotta date" list. :)

promises. Promises.

glad you love that ball n chain.

You never know KP, you may find me knocking on your door one day. I don't think the husband is as big a hurdle as the lack of passport. May take me longer to get a passport than it will take to get rid of the ball n chain. ;)

I do love the big oaf. He's lucky, because I almost killed him in Walmart today. Tensions were running high, it was the last store of 5 others today looking for the elusive items left on the back to school list. I was tired, the kids were tired, hubby, he wanted to check out all the sales bins, even though the things on sale weren't the things we were looking for. I was done. I wasn't in the mood to look through a huge box of old movies with titles I'd never even heard, or a box of loose socks hoping to find a pair. I just wanted to get what we came for and leave.

Okay, I'm working myself up again. So tell me KP dear, if you and I were together would you be wise enough (after trekking around all over Dog's green earth all day) to not recommend that your tired wife look at movies that are $1.00 with titles like "I left my harp in Sam clams disco", or to suggest we go through a box the size of my mini van to see if we can find a matching pair of tube socks because they're only 50 cents each?

If you are, I may be at your door sooner than you think . ;)

I'm not going to throw another man card member under the bus...

Unless its worth it.

Just saying.

;)

I remember one new years... my cousin was getting smack talk from my then-wife. Her mental processor is so damn fast. She refuses to say the first four things that comes into her mind, but the fifth, it still stings like isopropyl cohol on road rash.

So she lays into him. He is half drunk. And he looks to me to defend him. Some Brotherhood of the Scrotum thing.

Nada.

Dude is on his own. I'm actually happy some other schmuck is taking flak instead of me.

So... you man might be in good company with others... but don't expect us to own up to it when your trigger finger is tight and the hammer is back.

Chicken! ;)

That's really all I have to say about that. :)

Chicken! ;)

That's really all I have to say about that. :)

k.

Try harder.

I've been called much worse than poultry and lived another day.

...

Methinks ill go look at me passport whilst alty deduces another name to call me.

KP dear, I have many other wonderful names I can think of, but this damn site has a filter and it won't let me write them. ;)

Oh I have a passport, it's just no good. It expired in 2005. I really think it's time for me to bite the bullet, raise my right hand, swear to learn the Canadian national anthem, and learn to drink light beer. I just don't know if it's worth it.

I knew I should have married an American. Instant citizenship. Sigh.

So d!rty t@lk isn't w0rth th# #ff0rt.

1azy @rs#.

so d!rty t@lk isnt w0rth th# #ff0rt.

LOL! Okay, you win. I suck, you're the bomb.

But... I suck. You're just the bomb.

Okay, that was lame. Sorry. :o

'ooooooooooohhhhhh Canada!. something something land'

I partially know it, does that me I could get partial citizenship :D

Never drinking light beer though, got to draw the line somewhere :)

Hey not all Canadians drink light beer!!

Hello people! :)

Hi bella
Hi unky

How goes it :)

Hey Unky! How are you?

I'm fine... but I shouldn't be using the net today, the balance went past the limit =S

The exams are coming quickly, about 40 days left now... I've been doing many past exam papers in chemistry and maths. Now, I'll have to catch up with physics.

I hope it's better than here on your side :)

Hey guys.

First day of school over,hopefully this year it won't take me until christmas to find a routine!

Well it's +40 here. Not a happy camper. Ugg. But things are all well on the East side of Canada.

How you doin' Bear?

Hey bear... whats crackin?

Some weather were having.

hey guys.

first day of school over,hopefully this year it wont take me untill christmas to find a routine!

Hey red

School really? it's a bank holiday here

Also school in August? disgrace!

+40 C? Wow, that's what I call hot!

Around the 20~25 C here, with occasional winds and temporary showers.

Winter would be coming up soon up there, right?

hey bear...whats crackin?

some weather were having.

I'm all ill :(

I never get ill, wth :(

Also I've not looked outside yet :(

hey red

school really?, its a bank holiday here

also school in august?, disgrace!


Primary schools back.

We had our bank holiday already...

Copy cats!:D

primary schools back.

we had our bank holiday already...

copy cats!:D

I'm kind of glad ill have this day to recover though and won't get my pay docked, so worked out well for me :)

Rather than an inconvienient bank holiday on a different weekend

How did they make out Red?

Winter will be here in about 4-5 more months. I almost can't wait. This heat is too much. :(

Are you guys having hot weather too Red?

How did they make out Red?

Ciara is in primary school,seems fine, after some questions I learned that she did nothing today,learned nothing,nothing happened,all in all normal!

She's turning into a pre teen already.

Aoife is going to cork to college,has me robbed of bed sheets,cups,pots etc,she can't wait to go.

The student apartments are lovely,in fact there quite swish.

Her father is paying for it,I would have perfered something a little less expensive,she has delusions of granduer,tis far from posh she was reared,wreaks my head! but she's in a safe area,which is good.

The hound (emer),is supposed to be going to a local college,but she's so lazy and laid back I fear getting her out of bed will be a challenge.

Weather is amazing,lovely heat,clear skies.

Winter will be here in about 4-5 more months. I almost can't wait. This heat is too much. :(

Are you guys having hot weather too Red?

Its all rain :( as is life in the uk

its all rain :( as is life in the uk

Na na nana na:D

na na nana na:D

Grumble :(

Well at least it's not a bright hot sunny day and you are sick in bed!

I just went shopping, saw this mother and daughter team, daughter was wearing long jeans and a red hooded sweat shirt, mother was wearing a hounds tooth LONG coat. Like WTH? It's literally +39c today!

Glad to hear your pack is making out okay with school and such Red. Ahh I remember the days of raiding mom and dad's closets for sheets, blankets, pots and pans all the goodies they "never" used. I loved grocery shopping over there too!

Has anyone heard from Jeushelper ---Joe lately?

Yup I chatted shortly with him on Facebook, and saw him around on the boards. He was with out computer for a long time, but I think he said he was going to be busy with work and family for the next little bit...

If I see him on FB again, I will mention that you were asking about him.

if I see him on FB again, I will mention that you were asking about him.

Thank you ma'am. :)

But I feel even too ill to do that, heads thumping quite a bit and it would only make it worse :(

Hey stringer

https://www.askmehelpdesk.com/paranormal-phenomena/ends-last-resort-503220.html

Being a curious little women I had a look at this thread.

It will be interesting to see how it develops.

Hello Stringer... and everyone else of course, Nice save from Joe Joe.

I was without a computer for almost two months. I just bought a new computer last Thursday. So I am all hooked up again. I visited the library occasionally to use the internet but never enough time.

I just got a full time rotation plus I am taking a course in order to continue doing what I am doing. Busy this summer with lots of hours and overtime.

Also getting a sleep study tomorrow morning. They are suspecting sleep apnea. So my sleep has been more messed up lately then all the years past.

So it is good to be back and glad to have a new computer, used computers are not all they are cracked up to be, still have to bring the old hard drive in to get pictures and videos , etc...

Well I do feel like I am in a circus at times, but sure will join this circus too. Lol

Personally. I think this person is a bit disturbed for some reason and really needs to get to the root of their fears. The pictures posted in that thread prove nothing.

It took my fancy..

I don't normally look at the paranormal threads.

Hello joe,

Stringer was asking about you.

it took my fancy..

i dont normally look at the paranormal threads.

I go in there quite a bit. If only to dispel rumor from fact and to keep things down. Its not that I don't believe. I do. But there is a lot that can be explained and it needs to be looked at on an individual basis. But I like checking what walks in the door there too.

i dont normally look at the paranormal threads.

I like to check in on the new ones every so often, makes me less paranoid about me thinking there's other things present than just what we see :D

Hey Joseph glad your back and fine.

I completed my sleep test recently and they are still undetermined as to whether I need the 'sleep mask.' I am to find out in a week or so I guess.

Sleep mask? is everything all right stringer?

It is called a C pap machine I think.

People who do not get enough oxygen when they are sleeping and do not have good sleep from interruption. Treatment is to where this mask that forces air through the air ways to keep the person from stopping breathing through the night.

Thanks JH

Sorry to hear that stringer :(

Is this connected to the diabetes? Aww... I hope you won't need a sleep mask Stringer. :(

Although it sounds rather cool, like a death mask, I'm betting its not :(

Hi Bear! Feeling better? :)

Hey unky, felling a bit better yeah thanks, not 100% but good enough to still go to work :D

Speaking of which I finish in 10 so ill be off then :)

Good then. Get better soon :D

Cheers, will try, off to bed now to try that, cya later :)

Ok, a little early I see. Have a good rest Bear :)

Cya later!

Yeah that's the plan, might get a snack later though :D

Mmmm snack...

Hurricane Earl is supposed to hit the East coast of Canada this week end. On the 5 year anniversary of Katrina. Oh what a great week end coming!

I hope not too. But they are going to let me know. I understand that these contraptions lead to divorce or your wife sleeping in another room... not.

Hi all.

Bear, I caught your cold. I don't know how you managed to send it hear, but I really wish you'd kept it in England. ;)

I didn't read back. What contraption are we talking about?

I think he might have sent it my way, too. I keep getting hot flashes, and not in the good way. :o

I think he might have sent it my way, too. I keep getting hot flashes, and not in the good way. :o

Me too, but I'm almost 40, so that might explain the hot flashes. ;)

I'm having hot flashes, but it's due to the +38 weather here. :mad:

Stringer, the contraption thingy, is that the sleep apnea mask? My daughter who is only 3, may have to get one due to her breathing and asthma. Maybe she'll finally start sleeping in her own bed :rolleyes:

38 degrees Bella!

We're at around 10. :(

Me too, but I'm almost 40, so that might explain the hot flashes. ;)

Hey I'm not responsible for that as well :(

I've still got my cold/flu/disease of feeling awefullness

So I can't have passed it on to anyone, so ner ;)

38 degrees Bella!?

We're at around 10. :(

Ohhh GAWD I want your 10! It's supposed to get hotter in the middle of the week. Not sure what that's supposed to mean, tomorrow's Wednesday :rolleyes:

I don't think I can handle much hotter anyway.

I had to take Lady back to the vet today. Found another quill in her face.
This time it only cost me $45. But she has a huge gash in the side of her leg, poor muffin. Luckily she is already on antibiotic, so no need to buy another prescription. Just have to keep it clean. I shaved it this afternoon.

hey im not responsible for that aswell :(

ive still got my cold/flu/disease of feeling awefullness

so i can't have passed it on to anyone, so ner ;)

It's all your fault! :p

It's always a mans fault, when in doubt blame a man! :D

It's all your fault!! :p

It's always a mans fault, when in doubt blame a man!! :D

My thoughts exactly. It's Bear's fault. How can he make it up to us?

But... but... you can't blame me I'm poorly :(

Poorly? As in you don't have money or you feel poorly? You're going to make me feel bad. :(

If you don't have money, well there is always hand crafted ideas, but if it's your feeling poorly, you better make it up to us when your better.

Well now I feel bad. Hugs Bear.

You're still to blame, but we'll be nice. :)

Do we have to be nice? ;)

I got bored at work, so I came back too. It's no fun when you don't feel well and can't sleep. Hope you can find a way - it will help you feel better for tomorrow.

That is what the doctor thinks I will need is the sleep apnea machine. Did the sleep study today. I was up for over 24 hours and felt like it took me forever to get to sleep. So they gave me a sleeping pill. They told me it might take up to 6 to 8 weeks to get any results from this study.

Yep I'm waiting also, I probably will have to use it Joe. :(

Braves 9... Mets 2 bottom of the
Seventh. Just in case anyone wanted to know. See Ya...

I have no problem sleeping, it's staying asleep that's the issue. R snores, loudly. I wake up at least 15 times a night because he's snoring so loud.

The other night Syd came into our room, asked if I could do something about Daddy because he woke her up. She's down the hall, both of our door were closed. That's how loud he is.

Should you ever want to remove the old wall paper he can do it for you. :) I move the drapes I think.

Don't have wall paper. I paint. :)

But, his toots can peel paint. Just saying. :)

Good night Alty and Stringer...

Good night Joe.

Bella says good night too. Ya, I'm on the phone with her. Apparently she can't talk and type at the same time. ;)

Tell Bella hello, and stay safe...

So much for women being able to multi task :D

The modern women left all the multi tasking jobs to men.

So much for women being able to multi task :D

Dude... I'm a woman and I can multi task better than the best. I can deal with a laboring woman, take care of a sick neonate and read a bedtime story to my son on my cell phone.

Oh, and I need some new nice heavy pens. I've worn out all of the cool ones you sent and all of my co-workers are jealous... even the doctors. :p

The modern women left all the multi tasking jobs to men.

Careful Joe :eek: ;)

Let me work on them pens for you :)

You haven't a clue how many times I had to tackle a doctor down in the hall to get my pens back. :eek:

Maybe it was better when my computer was all broke up. Lol..

Thank you J9 for taking it easy on me THIS TIME.

You haven't a clue how many times I had to tackle a doctor down in the hall to get my pens back. :eek:

Night Joe :cool:

Thank you J9 for taking it easy on me THIS TIME.

I love you baby bro... you know that. Even the bestest of friends butt heads every once in a while.

Damn ............... I nearly read that wrong :eek:


Nite Joe :cool:

Go get a beer off your beer truck and read it again.

Sh1t... forget that. I drank all the beers on your beer truck. :o

Go get a beer off your beer truck and read it again.

Sh1t....forget that. I drank all the beers on your beer truck. :o

Well I have left it unattended for a couple of months , better replenish it :)


Just been reading a bit here today , looks like I've missed some of the fun :cool:

And we've missed you too M.

Time for me to hit the sack as well... too many hours, not enough day.

TTFN... does anyone actually REMEMBER what that means or am I that old?

Hey M, J and Joe! :)

I looked up TTFN once... that must have been two years ago... or last year. :)

M's back! Yay!

I was just thinking about you M, and missing you. You always keep me out of trouble. Since you've been gone, it's been bad. ;)

So how's my Aussie hunk doing?

And we've missed you too M.

Hi Unky :)

M's back! Yay!

I was just thinking about you M, and missing you. You always keep me out of trouble. Since you've been gone, it's been bad. ;)

So how's my Aussie hunk doing?

LOL... I can't imagine you gettin' in trouble Alty :rolleyes:

I've been great thanks , tell me all the goss.
, actually you better not , I can imagine how long that'd take :eek:

Where did Bella go? Did I scare her away :(

Bye M, have a good sleep. Pretty late in aussie right now ;)

Hello Alty! :)

Bye M, have a good sleep. Pretty late in aussie right now ;)

Hello Alty! :)

Nope , only 3pm Wednesday afternoon here unky. I may be tempted to stick around for another half hour or so :)

Oops, messed up the adding and subtracting :o

Right, 3 pm instead of 3 am. Darn, must bee too much multitasking. I must reduce a little.

That's unlike you unky ;)

No, it's just like I was trying to do much more than I usually cope up with :o

I usually do with 5, I tried 6 but it doesn't work too well.

Seems like we scared the ladies away... :(

No, it's just like I was trying to do much more than I usually cope up with :o

I'm here for a minute, but it's almost bed time. I guess I'm a lady. :D

Oh course :p

Have a good night JLo :)

I'm still here, just had a computer glitch.

Bella went to bed M. It's around 2:30am for her.

Gossip. So much. Where to start. It's a really long story.

It started on a cold night a few months ago... ;)

Well I keep having problems logging on too , so I'm out of here .

Be back soon :)

Say hi to Bella too :)

See you M! :)

Come back soon M. We miss you.

I guess it's just you and me Unky.

So how are things going? Anything new and exciting?

Not quite 'new and exciting'. Exams in 43 days exactly starting with General Paper (English + General Knowledge) and Maths.

I need to catch up with my Physics, it's the subject I'm the least confident about...

But in Chemistry and Maths, I'm keeping the level. General Paper, apart from trying to keep up with news, there's not much to do. French is more or less okay.

Oh, an I'm going on a cruise in December :p
It's R 80 000 (Canadian dollars: 2,805.38) per adult, free for minors and it's for 2 weeks.

That's really cheap if we work out the daily fee! 130 Can $ per day, all food included! We'll be having New Year's Eve during the voyage. We'll be visiting some islands in the Indian Ocean, and some African countries I think.

You'll do great on the exams Unky, you're a smart kid. Oops, I mean adult. :)

The cruise sounds great. I've always wanted to go on a cruise. It's on my list of things to do before I die.

We were really lucky to find those promotions... had it been another time of the year, the price wouldn't have been affordable at all!

Thanks, I'll give my best. As for what I'll do later on is still in he dark... medicine, engineering, IT... I don't know what is best to do... if I could do everything, I'd go for it XD. But we cannot afford the all those studies at the university :(


Apart from this, how are you? :)

This morning I let ciara walk to school on her own for the first time.

After much practice crossing the road all summer,debate and discussion, and several spies keeping an eye out for her,I gently cut one of the smaller apron strings.

With the other two heading off to college I have a hatchet at the last of the apron strings!

Small steps red... well done... :)

I'm sure Ciara enjoyed this next step towards independence.

Trust me, you will never be completely detached... there will always be that one, small, special thread that holds you to them no matter how old they get!

Like it or not, they will never be completely out of your grasp!
Muhaaaaaaaaa! :D

Well I keep having problems logging on too , so I'm out of here .

Be back soon :)

Say hi to Bella too :)


M!! Aww I missed you! :(

You could never scare me away! Hope to see you soon.

When I opened AMHD this morning, I was on the new skin for about 10 minutes. I then got an error 404 and it kicked me back to this one. I thought they had made the switch. :o

Me too Jlo.

Didn't hit the panic button though.

The time is coming soon. We must band together to get through this revolt!

:p

me too Jlo.

didnt hit the panic button though.

I almost did when I tried to open a PM. The first few times I got near it, the screen would go blank. I eventually got to it, but I don't know what I was doing wrong. :confused:

The time is coming soon. We must band together to get through this revolt!

:p

I'll work with it, but it's so slow compared to this.

I was only kidding...

It is slow, I don't like the layout one bit. I was one of the test subjects, and I think I lasted 3 days before I gave in and went back to the old v2

It must be up and running,I got a purple square in the rep system.

As far as I know the v2 will still be available when ff is in full swing.

I hope so Red.

JLo, have you used the new skin at all yet? It's so scary!

It does not work well for me and I keep going back to the old skin.

I hope so Red.

JLo, have you used the new skin at all yet? it's so scary!

When I first came back in July, I was using it for a couple of weeks. The biggest problem I had was it was slow. I was glad when they switched back to this one.

Okay, I have to stop thinking that avatars tell me something about the poster. Whenever I see an avatar with a person in it, I assume it's the poster, a general likeness of the poster, etc. Just read that FoxCash is a woman. That was a surprise. For the longest time, I thought KC was a weightlifter. I feel like I know exactly what Smoothy looks like, and of course we all know Stringer looks just like a famous movie star. :o

I'm about to change my avatar to a red-haired bride. I'm really not a palm tree. :p

LOL

So I'm a Dog , right JLo ;)

LOL

So I'm a Dog , right JLo ;)

A very good looking dog. :)

Haha - I was just looking at your "back to school" avatar a moment ago. That was quick.

Awww, I can't resist. :D

That's because I teach... but the new avatar is without the teacher clothes... wouldn't be very appropriate around my 7 and 8 year olds... :eek:

Does that mean I am a female dog? Yep, it fits. :)

Does that mean I'm a hot babe? :)

Well...

well..............................

:( Is that a no? :(

:: pout, pout, pout::

That otta put the guilt trip on. ;)

I think he was more like thinking about his own avatar... I like Sonic :)

And you are a 'hot babe' Alty ;)

I think he was more like thinking about his own avatar... I like Sonic :)

And you are a 'hot babe' Alty ;)

Aww. Unky, you're my favorite. :)

I guess I shouldn't tell you about the mouse I killed today. :(

How many favorites do you have Alty?

Now I am :(:mad::confused:

How many favorites do you have Alty?

Now I am :(:mad::confused:

Oops.

Um.

Look! A squirrel! :eek:

Where, Where, Uhm you really did think that would distract me.

Where, Where, Uhm you really did think that would distract me.

It was worth a shot. :o

I have pie. Chocolate cream pie. I froze it. It's yummy. If you let the squirrel be a distraction, I'll give you a piece of pie.

Deal?

Aww. Unky, you're my favorite. :)

I guess I shouldn't tell you about the mouse I killed today. :(

No worries, must be another of those evil mice which escape to mainland... :rolleyes:

There are some of them who turn bad once in a while, and before we can catch them, they flee...

I felt really bad about it Unky, but he got into the house. He stole dog food, he made a nest. He had to be killed.

We had a little memorial service before we tossed him in the trash can. ;)

What you did not want to flush him/her down the toilet?

You see? Since it stole food, it's evil I tell you! :)

Respectable mice don't steal food. ;)

LOL! I guess I don't have any respectable mice.

I hate killing them. They're so cute, but if I don't I'll soon have a house full of them and they do a lot of damage. Also, they poo everywhere and I have kids and other pets.

Still, I hate killing them. :(

Me too... the ones that get caught here... they just get caught in a trap... a board smeared with some glue (which stinks by the way) and we throw them in the bin. My heart is broken when I see them desperate on the glue :(

We use the snap traps. R bought the sticky traps once and I was horrified. We cleaned out the garage and apparently we had a nest with tiny babies. They got scared when we started cleaning, ran for the door and got caught in the sticky trap.

The trap said there's poison that kills them within seconds. Not true. They die of starvation.

One of the babies only had his little bum stuck to the trap so I tired to save him. I couldn't get him off, I just made him suffer more, so I gave up.

I finally ended up filling a pail with water and drowning them. At least that was better than them dying a slow death.

It still breaks my heart just to think about it.

The snap traps still kill them, but it's instant, just snap and dead, no pain, no suffering.

Let's change the subject. :(

Your cold is better today? :)

Let's change the subject. :(

Your cold is better today? :)

Aw, I'm sorry Unky, I didn't mean to make you sad.

Yes, my cold is better today. I also had my pre-op appointment today and the good news is they may not have to do surgery. The bad news is that they're going to try banding (did 3 today) the um, thingies. :o

I wasn't prepared to go home with a very sore butt today, but I did. I don't like this banding thing. I also don't like the fact that he asked if two of his interns could come in and watch. :eek:

Here I am, on the bed, on my side, rolled into a fetal position, butt hanging out for the world to see and he's talking about my "issues" as if I'm just a science experiment. All I could think about is the fact that Sneezy will one day be an intern and I can just imagine the jokes he'd make if he was in the office with me today.

Sadly I have to go back in 6 weeks for more torture. :(

Is that a better topic?

That's why those hospital gowns have an open back...

Banding is not a certainty, it works sometimes, cutting works best... :eek::D:)

You said no? Tell me you said no! Uh... tell him to get some other butt for his interns to see :eek:

Did this sound bad? :(

For Sneezy... I don't know... :(

EDIT: Evening Stringer! :)

Hello Unky. Finished the cigarette time to hit the sack again... night.

Okay, sleep well Stringer :)

That's why those hospital gowns have an open back...

Banding is not a certainty, it works sometimes, cutting works best.....:eek::D:)

Here's what really scares me Stringer. I just googled it, and apparently every other doctor puts their patients under when doing this procedure. Mine didn't. Also, most doctors only do 1 at a time because more than that would be too painful. Mine did 3.

I am in pain, not happy, and now I'm finding out that most people never get 3 done at once.

I found one website (a Q & A site like AMHD) where one guy said he only got one done and had to go on vicodin for a week because the pain was so bad.

My doctor said it wouldn't hurt. He lied! :(

Surgery is the next option, if this doesn't work. Apparently the pain of the surgery is far wore than the banding. :eek:

You said no? Tell me you said no! Uh... tell him to get some other butt for his interns to see :eek:

Did this sound bad? :(

For Sneezy... I don't know... :(

EDIT: Evening Stringer! :)

Um, no, I didn't. I said sure, bring them in. At that point I had no dignity left anyway, so I figured I'd just go for the full humiliation. :(

Sigh.

Well this girl and her sore butt are going to bed, if I can sleep. I may take a hot bath first.

I have another appointment in 6 weeks. I may cancel that. This really sucks. :(

Night everyone. Sleep tight.

It is but the success rate is much higher, "don't need no stinkin drugs." :)

Night now.

Okay, have a good night too Alty.

I don't think that cancelling the appointment will be good... the sooner this ends, the better I would think :)

The latest user interface, now known as Go (was ff), is being implemented on half of the new users starting sometime today.

At least there is warning this time. I thank the management for that. :)

It was the 3 ring, Barnum and Bailey part that confused me :)

... with all what is going on here, I'll stay on v2 this time. It's easier to follow threads from here.

Same here unky, but ill gladly visit the new skin every so often, just as long as I still have the option to change skins to whatever I like I'm happy :)

So which dog do I look like? :p

So which dog do I look like?? :p

I think of you as the picture in your sig, actually. :)

I didn't mention this before but in my mind all the men are handsome and all the women are beautiful... well, except the ones who are mean. :o

Would it be safe to take this as a compliment or self delusion :)

All the guys are very handsome, and all the nice girls are drop dead gorgeous.

Then there are the trolls and they look like... well... trolls.

I have always been one to judge a person based on personality and kindness. I've met people that aren't much to look at, but when you get to know them, they're the most beautiful people in the world. I've also met gorgeous people that could be on the covers of magazines, but get to know them, and they're not as pretty as you think.

It all depends on the goodness of your heart. If you're a good person your inner beauty comes shining through.

So you, we're all drop dead gorgeous. :)

Today for sure I think that I fall into that "I've met people that aren't much to look at" category hon... :(

Foxcash is a women...

I'm gutted.

Cute picture though,really thought it was a man.

I thought foxcash was a man too, a hot man at that! So who's the dude in her pic?

Thanks JLo!! You just made my day! I always picture the men as devastatingly handsome and women gorgeous as well. And judging by our members pic thread, we weren't too far off!

foxcash is a women....

im gutted.

cute picture thought,really thought it was a man.

I know. I saw your comment about that and agreed. I was so surprised when I read it. Apparently it's a picture of a young Johnny Cash.

Alty - you are right, of course. :)

Anyway hope she sticks around,she giving great advice.

Today for sure I think that I fall into that "I've met people that aren't much to look at" category hon.... :(

I don't believe that. :rolleyes:

Bella - I think a lot of us did - very cute pic. I saw where Kit asked her, and she acknowledged that it was confusing.

Yes she does, excellent advice! And I think women respond better to her, because they think she is a hot dude.

I know. I saw your comment about that and agreed. I was so surprised when I read it. Apparently it's a picture of a young Johnny Cash.

Alty - you are right, of course. :)

A young johnny cash... yummy.

Love a young clint eastwood or young steve mc queen,sweet!

Sean connery at any age..

That is so true!

Very observant batman.

a young johnny cash...yummy.

Maybe we should change our avatars. Just think of how the women would respond.

yeah i got that part :)

it was the 3 ring, Barnum and Bailey part that confused me :)

A 3 Ring Barnum and Bailey is a reference to the circus, we had(don't know if they even exist anymore),but non-the-less,they were the countries travelling circus, the biggest,best 3 ring circus ever!

You know,lions and tigers and bears, oh my!

:p Watch it bub,,,old,,ya think??;),,,ME??I just turned 22...(again)

No worries :D

Bear, watch it, I remember that circus. Of course I was knee high to a grasshopper when they came around, but still, I remember.

Be good, I'm feeling about weird about turning 40 in less than two weeks. :(

I didn't think this would bother me, but it does. Whoda thunk? Age is just a number, you're only as young as you feel, blah, blah, blah, but the truth is, I feel 40. :(

Sigh. Ya, I'm feeling sorry for myself again. What happened to my 20's? Where did the 30's go? Before you know it I'll be 6 feet under, only a memory.

Again... sigh, and a :: pout, pout, pout:: thrown in for good measure.

Just remember your german. Age is just a number of respect.

Alty did you go to the new skin today?:eek:

I refuse to do it today. I feel crappy enough already, I don't need a headache to top it all off.

I'll stay here in my safe zone, v2 all the way. Boo you! :)

Just remember your german. Age is just a number of respect.

How much respect do I get at 40, because so far it's not working. ;)

I'll get over it, but wait until I turn 50, I may be in a corner sucking my thumb and crying. No offense to those over 50. :o

I just feel too young to be 40. The 20 something's don't help. Sneezy has been calling me old for 3 years now, little bugger. I did remind him that when he's 40, my little Syd will be his age now. :)

I refuse to do it today. I feel crappy enough already, I don't need a headache to top it all off.

I'll stay here in my safe zone, v2 all the way. Boo ya! :)

I'm terrified of it. I'm afraid I'll go in and CurlyBen or Scott or Fr_Chuck won't be able to get me out. NOOOOOO Not the new skin NOOOOOO:eek:

Thanks Dad. Alty look on the bright side. You can collect Social Security at 62.;)

Thanks Dad. Alty look on the bright side. You can collect Social Security at 62.;)

Do they have ssi in canada ?

Sorry about making you feel old alty :)

If it makes you feel any better I doubt ill make it to 40 so you got me there :D

Thanks Dad. Alty look on the bright side. You can collect Social Security at 62.;)

LOL! No, I can't Kit. I do have a nice pension awaiting me from the insurance company I worked for, but other than that, I get nothing. I haven't worked often enough, or long enough (since the kids were born) to collect anything.

It's the RRSP's I'm relying on, and a lottery win. ;)

sorry about making you feel old alty :)

if it makes you feel any better i doubt ill make it to 40 so you got me there :D

Of course you'll make it to 40 silly bear.

Also, you still have to come visit me. You promised. Bella is coming next year for 2 weeks, I'm excited, my first AMHD visitor.

All my friends have an open invitation, if they don't mind sleeping on a pull out couch with the bunnies. Not literally with the bunnies. They won't be in the bed with you, but they'll be in the same room. On the bright side, the pull out couch is in our family room, nice size TV, wii and xbox access, a fireplace, and your own bathroom (well, you have to share it with Jared but it has a jucuzzi (sp?) tub).

So, any takers?

Do they have ssi in canada ?

I think it's the same as a pension plan, isn't it?

I've never heard of ssi, so no, I don't think we have it.

We barely have pension anymore. Nowadays it's up to the individual to save for retirement because there's no guarantee that you'll get anything for working your arse off for 40 plus years. That's why there are so many 80 year olds working in McDonalds. They can't afford to retire. :(

In the U.S. we have pension plans (private) and SSI (government). The government one takes money from your paycheck and it doesn't matter if you want them to or not. Private pension plans are totally voluntary. Some companies offer them as an incentive. And after those are retirement savings plans you may have heard of like 401k.

Ours is retirement. My husband is already drawing retirement. I'm a few years away.:eek:

Sorry?? I heard birthday, retirement, ssi, pensions, new skin... but all of that was lost after jacuzzi tub!

I wish we had gotten one when we redid the bathrooms... drat. Might have to redo that part of one at a later time.

We do have ssi then, or the same thing with a different name. We do get money taken out every cheque towards retirement, but it's called the pension plan.

We don't have a 401k, as far as I know. I'd never heard of it until I joined this site.

We had our house built so we had many options. We put in the jucuzzi tub because of my back problems. It does help, and it's really nice to sit in a deep tub, jets going. :)

We had to put it in the basement bathroom because of the weight. We live in a bi-level and the basement is nice an bright, very open, lots of natural light. Jared's bedroom is in the basement, as is the family room, the bunny room, the computer corner, the laundry room etc. etc. It's a small house, but it works for us. :)

I'm really glad we put in the jucuzzi tub. Because we did it with the home builder it only cost an extra $200 when we had it built. :)

We'll have to differ on that one ;)

That's awesome that you and bella are meeting up, :)

Yeah I did promise and I intend to keep that promise :)

So hopefully we'll meet within the next 19 years :D

19 years! I'll be almost 60 then! I can't show you around Canada at 60. Can I?

Come sooner, in a few years would be good. Before my kids are grown and the same age as you. ;)

I did say with in 19 years :o

i did say with in 19 years :o

Let's make it within 5 years, than we have a deal. ;)

Within 10 years, I've cut it in half for you can't do a better deal than that :D

19 years!? I'll be almost 60 then! I can't show you around Canada at 60. Can I?

No you won't. Your not GOing anywhere. ;)
