Nope...wouldn't touch your hair. I love it that length. And the spandex I'd make you try on just to laugh at you and then demand you take them off so that we could put you in some parachute pants. Maybe lay down a little cardboard and do some old school breakdancing. Are you in...err..I mean "down"?

I have a freakin' job interview in 2 hours so I'm up early and causin' some trouble on the bandster site.

Warm thoughts to Mookie...

I have a closet full of clothes that don't fit. (my spare room)

Today I put a pair of size 22 jeans in, and took out a pair of size 18 jeans...and they fit too, a little snug, but they will stretch out! lol.

The job interview went very well. They have invited me back for a second interview with upper management. Date to be confirmed within the next couple of days. Until I finish my Archaeology degree (my true love) I work as a Credit Analyst. Basically a toady to the company controller. I review customer's financials and follow their credit activity with the company. Call them to make payments, call them to see why they haven't purchased in a while and I work with the different branches to grow their customer credit profiles. Boring, boring, boring and lots of big egos to deal with. Good pay if I can keep my mouth shut and keep this job. We’ll see. I ain’t promising nothin’!

Someday I'll be working for a museum or working with forestry or mining co's providing test site evaluations to ensure Archaeological data is preserved prior to land use. I'd love to do some work in the Maritimes...they have wonderful Historic Arch. sites. My field of research is related to Chinese immigration/lifestyle/burial practices in the mid 1880's. With particular interest in their impact on Western Canada's gold rush period. What can I say; I never grew out of playing in the dirt. I also love to excavate old outhouses…seriously; they are some of the most educational digs. Aside from the petrified poop, I have found some beautiful pottery, old lanterns, clay pipes, intact bottles, money, boots, old porcelain doll, a huge stash of tiny shoe nails. Chinese sites give up pottery (celadon pieces are my fav.), tools, opium pipes and tins, small weights for opium scale, gaming pieces called Fan Tan beads. I could go on and usually do much to my friends chagrin. “God, Mookie’s talking about Outhouses again!”:faint:

More to follow on this developing story…

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.
