Crock of crap, JZ. I'm not sure whether I'm calling BGH that, or the situation in general.
Susan, any chance that mid-afternoon salt craving is a potassium craving? Sodium and potassium have similar flavor, though potassium has a hint of bitter to the saltiness. Potatoes have some potassium, so it is not insane to have an urge for chips, and not be sure which electrolyte your body is really begging for. V-8 would hit both brilliantly, but not get the crunch going. Low-sodium V-8 would definitely fit the bill for a potassium craving, as it substitutes potassium chloride for sodium chloride for flavor, in addition to the potassium naturally found in the tomatoes, et. al.
When I am feeling the need for potassium, I can buy a six-pack of those little cans of the stuff, then power slam four in a row in the parking lot outside the grocery store before I notice that it tastes funny (compared to regular V-8).
ETA: Crock of crap not directed at amazing, beautiful, ovary-provoking precious little person, in spite of amusing juxtaposition.
Except for the pants-related meltdowns, that big girl seems like a pretty smart and funny and charming creature, and really a more than fair trade for the baby.
Worth it even with the meltdowns. In our parent interview, we had to say what our most favortire thing about Em is. I said, "Her joy. Her pure joy at doing anything and how much fun and excitement she gets out of everything." And then I cried a little. Such a big girl.
And I'm right with you on the seeing newborns. Makes my uterus echo.
Happy Birthday Sean!
Pain free ma for Ginger, Nicole, Suzi, Sail and those who are hurting. Cat ma for askye.
I'm exhausted and cranky.
What is it with the sneaky boss stuff? As long as you aren't claim you are there before you --WTF? and if Boss has a problem , he should talk to you , not your co-worker. BGH probably has things that are more impt than you to look after anyway.

my dog is trying to catch the sunbeam in the bathroom. I may be experiencing lethal levels of cute radition.
Happy Birthday Sean! :: throws glitter :: WEEeeEEEeeee!!!

MWAH! Love ya all.
Low-sodium V-8
I just had a little can of that AIWFG! Didn't cure my headache, though. I'm getting headaches like every day, I swear. Ow.

Hippo Birdies to you, Sean!
