Look at all the Deena love.

Cash and Deb just stopped by to catch the Dylan and Matilda show.

Which turned into the Dylan goes to sleep show and the Matilda counting to three and jumping off the table show.

We gave shit to Cash about how this report would look to her husband: "I had a great trip to San Francisco. I played with two toddlers!"

What's really hilarious about the weight issue, is that aside from other fat people, the ones I get real understanding from are the superskinny types whose metabolisms are trying to eat the rest of their bodies. I'm not entirely certain, but I think they find it slightly easier to get a doctor to believe, "Yes, I really am eating a lot; no, I don't have anorexia." But they know how a screwed up metabolism can work against one - and they look at me and think, "Geez, another screwed up metabolism. Too bad we can't take the average and both be healthier."

The Deena love makes me feel all warm and fuzzy.

I'm betting Cash will not want to tell her husband about that part of the trip.

Deena!

but then I was afraid she'd think I was going to light-finger her coat, which was almost as awesome as she is.

In all fairness, it was really an amazing coat... Nearly as impressive as Vortex herself.

DEENA!

BOING!

Timelies!

Oh my! Went to Tampa for a few hours to shop for clothing for Hub to wear to new job with the plant. Came home and found 200+ posts on Bitches!

Interesting reading, too!

From all of the talk, I really would love to make it to a F2F. Maybe this year...

Some Dr's seem to think that all a person has to do is think about losing weight and it will fall off. My thyroid starting acting up about 10 years ago. I've been to several doctor's, including an Endocrinologist, and have been on at least 4 different meds. During the time my weight has still continued to creep up.

Now I weigh in between 170 and 180 (I'm 5'6" and a size 12), take my meds, watch what I eat and work out. The weight just doesn't seem to want to budge. My current Doc keeps saying things like, "I'd really like to see you lose between 30 and 50 pounds." One time, I decided I had enough of that sort of thing and told him I'd like to see him go first and drop the weight if it was so easy.

"Three of those pounds on my current weight are from the handgun I'm aiming at your head. Now, get to work, Dr. House."

I would dearly love to see that as an episode of House.

I'd like to see that on any show...

BOING!

It was indeed an impressive coat.
