Aww, Penguin Daddy!
Askye, yay for getting your insurance straightened out!
Teppy, vibing hard things fall within the timelines for your insurance.
Ginger, so relieved for you you got treatment.
In conclusion: I'll take Alan Rickman in a shaft of sunlight (thank you, ita!).
Ginger, hope you feel better soon!
Dear Oral Care Industry,
Please to be making it plain which minty-fresh products are wintergreen-flavored and which are not. I'm sure that there are plenty of potential customers who love wintergreen, and strongly dislike spearmint or peppermint, while I find wintergreen to be nauseating and to be avoided at all costs. This business of calling things "clean mint" and "fresh mint" and "cool mint" and anything except what actual flavors are in them is. Not. Helpful.
No love,
me
WindSparrow, we are sisters in our hatred of wintergreen! It's pepto bismol flavor! BLECH! Plus, my dad used to eat wintergreen mints while driving us to Texas in the summer and I always got car sick on those trips so the smell is inextricably linked with nausea in my brain.
I also hate wintergreen.
So, the move estimator just left. Time to crunch some numbers. Man, I just want to go back to bed. So overwhelmed, and still not sleeping well.
I've never noticed a difference between different flavors of mint, but I pretty much hate all artificial mint flavor. A few leaves of mint in something is OK, but mint toothpaste, cookies, candies, etc., just taste gross to me.
I once saw a photo of Alan Rickman, barefoot, in a kilt. sigh
Ginger, glad you've seen the doctor - hope everything kicks in soon.
Dear healthcare system: if you're going to pay for viagra, you REALLY ought to cover birth control and other reproductive services. Thanks ever so.
I don't mind wintergreen but if I'm sick to my stomach only peppermint helps (if I have no ginger) I wonder if all that Pepto we had when we were sick little kiddies made it so it doesn't work on us as adults.
I will take any and all varieties of mint.
I DEPISE spearmint. To the point that if someone is chewing spearmint gum or sucking on a mint, I can't talk to them.
