Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Shir, that's a great thing your mom is doing. May she carry all sorts of healing ~ma with her - I'll send some.
Kat, I'm glad you made it to your hotel and are excited. I hope the weekend keeps treating you right.
My DH announced at 3 a.m. last night that he was going to do stand up comedy and then he tried to tell me a joke. I'm not sure which of us was dreaming/sleepwalking at this point.
We seem to have Surprise!Snowpocalypse this morning. I should have paid attention to the weather forecasts yesterday, but I KNOW when I checked on Friday there was no such thing, and it was supposed to stay cold for a couple more days.... Hmmmph.
Timelies all!
Up too early, since Nova starting meowing and scratching at the door at 6:30 or so. Got up, fed the cats, went back to bed. I thought I had closed the door properly, but somehow Nova got the door open and started grooming/eating my hair at 8:30. So here I am...
Did you know you could get a replica of Patrick McGoohan's jacket on the Prisoner?
Good morning Buffistas! I seem to have discovered a miracle cure for cramps, although it involves taking a prescription muscle relaxer not for the purpose intended. I took a half a flexeril prescribed for my back plus 2 ibuprofen and had relief for 10 hours! I am usually taking 4 - 6 ibuprofen every 4 hours and not getting full pain relief.
So now I wonder if I should try to get my Dr. to prescribe them for cramps or if I should try to go to Canada where they are OTC. When I was a kid in the eighties, everyone's mom seemed to have muscle relaxers for their period, but they don't seem to give them out like candy anymore.
Good morning, everyone!
Sophia, I'd check with your doctor, unless the price would be better in Canada. I have the same memories you do of every woman I knew having muscle relaxants for cramps back in the day. Luckily, I grew out of really bad cramps by college, but I still "enjoy" very heavy periods that never have predictable start days.
I'm glad I stayed home from the Shakesville party yesterday. I laid down on the couch to watch tv around 5:30 last night and didn't wake up until 11:45. Then, of course, I didn't get back to sleep until 5:00 this morning, but I woke up at 9:30, so it didn't throw off my sleep pattern too much. I just couldn't believe I was that tired, but I guess I was!
I'm running some errands this afternoon, and then will watch the inauguration concert on HBO (I don't get HBO normally, but they're supposed to have it available to everyone, so I'm hoping I'll be able to see it).
I slept away my SUnday morning alone. People will be here in an hour or an hour and a half and I haven't showered yet and certainly have not done any "chores" that I had hoped to. Oh well, I guess I shower and see what I feel like after that. I did get all my nails done last night and they look good, so that is something.
wow, no posts. I decided the best thing for me would be to continue the relaxing evening and morning - starting a mad rush to "get things done" would undo all the calm I am enjoying.
I put on Norah Jones, then did a little prep work to re-grout a bit of my shower, then took a bath and finally sorted the laundry and was straightening the bathroom a bit when I knocked a small glass bowl off a shelf and CRASH into the tub...glass everywhere. I got my barefooted self out of there without incident and have closed the door. Now to find shoes and clean that up.
