Reynolds, I'm a dangerous-minded man on a ship loaded with hurt. Now, why you got me chatting with your peons?

Concur with Fred Pete. The "Jeanna Treatment" a.k.a. "the Milwaukee Protocol" hasn't worked for anyone else. Or at least, not yet -- and it's really not something for which you want to be an experimental subject, if you can possibly avoid it.

Boy, I am SO not with it today. I forgot my cell phone at home, and I just locked my jacket (with my car keys in the pocket) in the room I was working in on campus. Had to call campus security to let me in to get them.

Can I go back to bed now?

Better than the cognitive functioning, apparently. I ended up talking to my PCP last night. I meant to page my therapist, but apparently paged my PCP. I was terribly confused when she called me (after I had been asleep for a while) two hours later. I feel like I'm in a total fog. PCP thinks this should all be a little better by Monday, and if not, I have to come in and be seen again. Still not eating, but I've forced down two Ensures since last night.

Happy moving day, sj! May your new place be everything wonderful.

Hope you feel better soon, vw.

So want to hear my d'oh! story? Yesterday morning, I got on the scale. I'd lost five pounds or so the first week I was sick, and I was wondering if I'd gained that weight back. The scale said I had lost 15 lbs. 15 lbs in three weeks.

I was stunned and freaked and confused. I weighed myself twice with the same result. I talked to ND and to a couple of friends about how weird that was, that I felt like I'd lost a little weight but certainly not that much, that I couldn't understand what was going on, etc. I was concerned about my health, but I was filled with determination to start exercising as soon as I could safely do so to turn this negative into a positive. This was my chance to finally shake the weight I've been carrying for three years since my last bout with Zoloft for good, I thought.

Last night, I got back on the scale to confirm...and the scale said I'd gained 13 lbs. That day.

I think, perhaps, the scale is broken.

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

Does Danger use protection? Pro'lly not, huh?
