Buffistas

Yes. Men like sports. Men watch the action movie, they eat of the beef, and enjoy to look at the bosoms. A thousand years of avenging our wrongs and that's all you've learned?

I saw someone who looked kind of like Bob dressed up as a Carrot in the Holiday Parade of Light.

Question for the hivemind: My doctor is sending me for a bunch of tests, including a fasting blood glucose test. However, she neglected to tell me how long I have to fast. I googled and have found times between anywhere from 6-10 hours. So I'm going with the ten, just to be safe. But does anyone know if I can drink water during the fast? I really want to do this tomorrow morning, so the results can be ready for my next doctor's appt.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Sue, all my fasting glucose tests have included the instructions, "nothing to eat or drink after midnight". My test times have always been between 8-9 a.m.

Thanks Cash. The blood collection place opens at 7, but I don't expect to be there before 8.

Oh fuck. I'm now at the center of a fight between my brother and his wife. See, mom really wants to have D (my nephew) out for a visit. Given that SIL takes D to her parents for a couple weeks at a time because she and brother just need time off to deal with stuff, you'd think it was no big deal. So mom proposes at some point that I fly to B'ham, stay a couple of days then fly out to parents with D.

SIL FLIPS THE FUCK OUT. I mean, I know why. She's really really close to her family and doesn't like change AT ALL. Not sane, but...

And now my brother is royally pissed off at his wife. And bitching to me.

I like my SIL, but I know her triggers and don't so much like those. She's.... high strung on certain things. It's annoying,

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Gah. I just can not keep my eyes open. I fell asleep during the Profit commentary.

Twice.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

Just found wishlist.com, and now I wish they had more stores cause they don't have very many.

I love GA. I know that's not news, but I do.

What's AZ?

hah on the bags. I AM THE TURKEY! (can I call it fred? Please? It's a tradition. Oh, and it has to dance.) That's fine. We could probably even unload shit from my one and stuff extra stuff if necessary.
