When my mom had arm surgery, the doctor kept her bandaged longer b/c women are known to be pickers!!! As a matter of fact, my mom and I both really pick our cuticles but we have good nails! Weird! Travelin - I hadn't thought about the adhesive - good addition! Example of how LBT is such a great community!

He is actually working in Sydney but is visiting Perth for a business reason. I need to find out how long he will even been in Perth b/c I am not sure! I will definitely ask him though, thanks! :eek:

Uh yeah, the sad thing is that I'm sure there are plenty of Americans that couldn't place all 50 states!!! A close gf is originally from Uruguay (but now a proud US citizen!) and laughs at how pathetic I am with world geography!!! I can place all 50 states (though the northeast is tricky) but am not 100% that I could place all of the European countries I've been to! :thumbup: Oh well! PS - it's 2:24am - why am I awake? Doh!

Do people with sleeves have the same issue as RNY'ers that the stomach can expand if you push it? My gf that had RNY is definitely gaining weight and she's 3-4 years out. I guess I like that I can continue to have fills if I start gaining years out. Is that naive? (PS - MommaMac - I am, in no way, berating your decision. I just know nothing about the sleeve!) Hiiiiiii She! Did you have fun? Did you get in trouble for drooling on said 'spensive vehicles? Did I tell you that my brother is in Perth? Typical geographically challenged American - I looked it up and found that it couldn't be farther from Sydney! The trip is for work so he's getting a free trip which makes him very happy! :thumbup:

Renite - it sounds like you are allergic to band-aids just like my brother. Presuming you need additional band-aids after your "wound check," ask that they use non-latex(?) band-aids. (I think band-aids are latex.)

Thank you, BBK! I don't need to panic this close to surgery!!!! I went to Wally World for supplies today. I am so not a fan of that place! I got 3 different brands of protein shakes, SF popsicles, Gas X, wirefree bra, liquid Tylenol, and turlet paper b/c yanno, I'm weird and prefer TP over sandpaper. :thumbup:

Wha wha wha?!? You're a moderator on LBT and are scared of having a band? Ack, I don't need to hear this days before surgery!

Bless your heart; I'm very sorry.

Being the hottest (temperature) person on the planet!!!

NBC, huh? Are you talking about SNL? If so, they had plenty of digs against the Clintons, tyvm.

That is hysterical! I've always jet lagged really badly on my trips to Europe. When my parents went to visit my brother in Sydney, mom never did get completely adjusted. Eek!

hee hee - no more Dubya! I saw the quote and then googled for the next inauguration date. Tada! Dang, 3 suitcases? Good grief, is he a girl? Kidding! I found out that my brother's going to visit Perth. I'm so jealous! Football, sigh...we (Tennessee) play Georgia tomorrow. I dread it. :smile2:

Wow, Plain, men are really easily amused!!!

01.20.09 is the US's next inauguration. The error is referencing George Dubya Bush. Yeah, that gave me WAY too much satisfaction to type! :smile2:

I actually like Publix but I do miss my former Kroger. It was brand new and all fancy. The one around me is uh run down with questionable clientele! OMG She - $499? GASP!!!

I've only read a little but so far, funny stuff. Of course, there's a lot of female breasticles on that site too so that's why I think you really look at it!

from Plain's suggested website re Hef: "...Except, instead of having hot sex with young blond twins, I make a scarecrow of my ex and hang it from a tree with a knife in it and a note that says, YOU." Hysterical!

Thanks Plain! I didn't grew up around guns so I don't know these things!! I'm obviously a single female living alone. I've thought about getting one but I'm wicked clumsy and am afraid I'm hurt myself!! Glou -yes, yes we are!!! Yanno - with all of the insomnia on this thread, maybe it's the discussion of Plain's genitalia that brought this all about!

One of my gf's keeps telling me that as I lose weight (God willing) that I should go to TJMax and Marshall's for quality things at lower prices. (And she can squeeze a penny!!!) I always think of having to pour through a lot of merchandise and I despise shopping. PS - I heard that department stores are really hurting right now. I really wish someone could splain to me why people are selling stocks when they're so down right now. HOLD HOLD HOLD!!!

Why do Americans need automatic guns? I just don't get it. Weren't they made only for the military to kill people? Splain to me, Lucys!! I hope that Clay's son looks like the mother!

I just cackled loudly about this one! Good plan! And yes, I would kick her butt, Slim. You're welcome!!!

Plain - hello, share the web addy!!! She - being a mini America is good and bad. Hopefully your economy isn't in the crappah like ours is, good lawd. However, having Target stores ROCK!

OMG there are things one cannot un-read! What were you thinking??? I'ma have nightmares now! I think of you like I do men at work - smoooooth like a Ken doll! :eek: She - it's a tad disconcerting that you know about ol' Hef and you don't even live in the States! WTH were they thinking - living with Papaw? Gross! I'm sorry; I just don't need money badly enough to sleep with that old thang. I thought that Hef was legally still married. Is he not? What little I've watched the show, I like Holly and Bridget well enough but Kendra annoys the hell out of me. Isn't she dating some pro athlete? <shaking head> An 82 yo living with 19 yo twins - ewwwwww.

You're 254 or 154?
