Mal ,'War Stories'
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
Here's one of those memory thingies.
Kenneth Lay in the ground.
Tom Delay's human evolution.That's a good mnemonic. There should be a good mnemonic for mnemonic, and its spelling. ijs
Many need employ mnemonics on new information Cindy.
(I don't think that will catch on)
Two more practices and softball is OVER for the summer.
Today - 110 in the shade. I'm being a bad girl and running my engine so I can sit in my air conditioned car. I want to nap, but not with the engine running. Without it, I will melt. Gah!!!
Clearly, Beej, you took my two days. And welcome to them, I might add.
I'm suspecting my problem is periM. My sister started the long slide into the Big M when she was only two years older than I am now. I'm actually looking forward to it, a little. I'd like to reclaim my personality out of the hormone pawn shop.
If anyone wants a good laugh - go to [link] and listen to the custom song about K-Bug's softball team. This is to get them pumped for going to Nationals.
I'm with you on the reclaiming personality zenkitty, but I'm still afraid of the bigM for one very particular reason.
A friend of mine who is a midwife describes it thus: "That friendly accordian becomes a mailing tube."
I'm not looking forward to vaginal dryness, pain and lack of interest in pretty much my favorite activity.
Some people make model airplanes, some people bake, me and Fela? We have sex . It's a hobby. What can I say?
I need to talk to more women on the other side of the M to calm my fears.
eta: so sorry for using the wrong name!
I've got a friend who swears by some vaginal cream that has estrogen or whatever hormones in it. Says it solves all her problems.
Beej, I know others who had migraines just like the one you described.
almost cereal - that's what I meant to say - my sister and I both had "sick headaches" like that along with our cycles. Hers were way worse. We both eventaully grew out of them. Not that that's any help at all.
I left for work early. about 330 . figureingI 'd get to sit in the library for 45 - 30 min before working. in the cool . reading. nope. never made it to work accident on the road I take to work. not a problem. however, I did not find out about it until I was on the road. thing were very slow but moving. 45 min into journey - pass dead truck. yay . 1/2 mile down the road. dead stop. 20 min later- in spitting distance of the town I need to be in -- a police car goes by saying " road closed turn around. " now, NPR had been sayin g the road was closed since I got on it. So why - when I got to the first accident , didn't they turn us around. Really - it is fun to sit on a road when it is 113 degrees. If they had turned me around earlier - I might have made it to work late but not crazy late. so I get an unexpected vactaion day. whee. I got home - about 530. ( if I had tried to get to work - it would have been 630)
good news: when I left my house , it was 103 outside. when I got home , it was 102.
It's weird though. I'm not really the headache getting type. Or, at least, wasn't. Seems odd, at this late date, to be growing into them.
I'll have to look into that cream. I plan to be pre-pared...if you know what I mean.
