Was it Em that said good night for you?

Yup. Hee!

Good luck, PC!

All the best, P-C. I'm sure you'll give good phone.

I have a health question from my sister to throw out to you guys. I'll whitefont part of it when it starts to get icky.

i´ve had this infection in my throat for the entire month of august now. honestly, i was pretty worried for a while but i´ve had it for so long now that im used to it. there have only been a few days when it didnt hurt like a bitch at some point during the day. ANYWAY, the point of this is that i have been coughing up phlegm for a while now and in the last week it has started coming up in a charcoal color. i know this is really gross and i´´m sorry, i just wanted to see if this has ever happened to you when you were sick because of the smoking. i dont know if its from smoking or if there is something seriously wrong with my insides. i´ve tried looking it up on webmd, but i cant really find what i want. i dont really want to go to a doctor since i´m feeling better and i dont know how that system works here.

Anyone know what this might mean? Does she need to suck it up and see a doctor? (She's in Sweden for the next month and uninsured, hence the reluctance)

brenda, I would say yeah, tell her to see the doctor. Smokers' phlegm is usually yellow, not gray. That doesn't sound good.

Luck to P-C!

I've never been asked to pay for medical care in Sweden. In theory they are supposed to charge people who don't live in one of the Nordic countries, but it's usually more trouble for them than it's worth.

Is it odd that my father and stepmonster, who are a hair's breadth from NeoCon, should allow their nine yo to buy "American Idiot"? Because when they brought it up at dinner, I thought so... But they put my aunt's shit out on the street, so maybe they don't really care what adult stuff they expose him to.

Good morning, my Bitches. I've skipped a lot of stuff, but job~ma to Susan, P-C, and Jilli, hugs for Gloomcookie, happiest of belated birthdays for Jen and meara, and love and kisses for whomever else.

Celebrated our 1-year anniversary on Sunday. If it's true that the first year is the hardest, I'm glad to have that one over with. FAR too much excitement this past year.

Oh, juliana, Happy belated Anniversary to you!

I think the first year was the hardest for us couple-wise, but we hadn't lived together beforehand. I'm not so sure how much that first year business has to do with the state of being married or if it has more to do with settling in together. You broke your beautiful face though, which I hereby declare is enough of hard times in your marriage.
