*slim*

My goodness! You guys were busy last night! I have laughed at so much this morning. Not only did you hit 1000+ pages, you hit 15000+ posts (yay Beth!)! You all rock!:nanahump: KC-you be careful leaving this morning. See if you can get security to go out with you (or the imaginary friends:biggrin:). Kat-congrats on the new grandbaby! I figure the baby will be here by the time you get to read this!:Banane56: I may have to start recording True Blood. I like sex..er, I mean drama.:wink2: Plain-we miss you when you are gone. I know that I missed some posts. There were just entirely too many to catch up on. I am off to get coffee started(my addiction to LBT is stronger than my addiction to coffee).

I'm so sorry about your doggy. You want me to go start a chicken thread? I can, you know.:wink:

I think you would be an awesome doggy nurse, but alas I think luluc mentioned that her handyman doesn't look like your hottie!:crying:

It sounds to me like he is making excuses to see KC.:sneaky:

She has a battery pack hidden somewhere with Energizers. No, hottie dreams! Must have hottie dreams. So sorry about your dog. Enjoy your concert, dinner, and "free" stuff. Fish makes me gag!:smile: Stop looking at the chocolate. It is trying to suck you in! I should have known. Of course, it is always my favorite earrings that disappear.:mad: Did you take him a tall, cool drink?:w00t:

I am not sure I ever had a mojo. I am truly pulling for everything to be ok. I will help us get there. When you figure it out, will you tell me how you did it? I still don't know what I want to be when I grow up.

I really can't understand how some doctors think they are some type of god! I worked for a doctor like the one you posted about. It made it really easy to quit working with no notice.:ohmy: I had never done that before nor have I done it since.

Beth, I am sending prayers and good thoughts to you and your family.

Hi. How is everyone doing now? Why don't we start coming here at least a few times a month to check in? I really miss hearing from my fellow September Samurai!

I paid her for...I mean, hopefully the latter.:tongue2:

Will I be able to google this "research" later?:tt2:

You and me both!:tongue2: Her husband is taking her on vacation. My husband just came home and gave his mom half of my tiny bottle of dishwashing liquid! The bottle cost a freaking dollar, she can't afford that? WTH? She sent this huge bottle that had as much in it as my little bottle, but he put it right in there anyway!

You said what I could not figure out how to put into words. What she said is exactly what you need to do Ebony.

Have fun! Ok, I almost had a plain moment.:tt2: Safety...right..:tongue2: You mean there are other kinds?:frown:

Ebony-(((((hugs))))) I think everyone has give you excellent advice on how to handle this situation. I will only add that you cannot allow them to diminish your confidence. You ARE a very intelligent, capable woman. Don't let their stupidity rob you of that. No matter what they say, you KNOW you can do the job if they would stop moving the freaking target. You will never be able to hit a moving target, so don't start thinking that you aren't capable of the job just because they are being a*sholes about it.

You know, I asked if you wanted to trade... I have yet to hear a response on that.:tongue2:

Morning! I will be rooting for you in the race for the cure. I had two relatives with breast cancer. Don't rub it in. Morning!

Tap I am so sorry! You have had amazingly bad luck with the weather this year. I really hope it turns around to help you out of the doldrums (sp?).

Morning Tap. Are you feeling any better?

luluc-what happened to your avi?

Just thought I would mention that he obviously likes you now. Just saying... It would be strange, but of course, not unheard of. I can't believe that you didn't! I was wondering the same thing?:huh2: I can NEVER find the good sales. I can go to the same store with someone and they find the $300 purse for $5 while I find the same $300 purse for $300.:huh2: Happy Bandiversary! Isn't it fun though? :laugh: Morning!

Told you I was mental. I have to wonder if the first pair really does have a defect in the sole. It just seems to be a lot softer than the other shoes. It almost looks like it has a flat tire when I am standing up. hmmm

I'm not sure. My doc talked a lot about the discomfort. He told us to wait a year before drinking one. I figure he throws out that date because after a year of not having one, you have broken that habit. Instead, I have picked up other habits to take its place.

It seems like I feel my muscles working harder in the metabolize than I do in the optimize. The sole seems to be softer in my optimize. I don't know if that is a defect or design. I wear the optimize daily (I picked the all back to hide how dirty my shoes seem to get at work:blush:). They are extremely comfortable though.

My mom's birthday party was schedule for the day before I was to start my pre-op diet. They called the Monday before and moved my surgery date up! I ended up missing my "last supper". It worked out for the best because it gave me less time to stress over it. I stopped drinking soda the day I went to the seminar (almost 3 months before surgery). I can't look at a Dr. Pepper without drooling. On my bandiversary, I plan to drink at least 1 soda just to have the taste.
