Yeah, like the first anniversary is paper, so you could include a plant with your gift with a note about how it's going to be paper soon.

Hi Alibelle! Hi everybody!

I have been editing articles all day. Seriously. I've read like 100+ pages already, and I have another 45 page article to go. phooey

I don't begrudge you your Buffista-facetime, meara! I simply want some for myself. It's the same way I feel about money and good boyfriends.

I read somewhere (citation needed) that most people are deficient in magnesium because we clean our food better than our ancestors did and thus eat less mineral-rich dirt, whereas the body, though it needs magnesium for many functions, does not store magnesium because it expects to be getting a fairly steady supply from our dirt consumption. So I guess we should be yanking carrots and taters out of the ground and eating them right there.

So, I just received the checks from my new credit union bank account. And it said there were 4 packs in the bag, and indeed...but they're numbered 2100-2159 and 2190-2219. WtF? It seems to be missing one that is 2160-2189. I guess I'll call in the morning. Really didn't need.

weird meara, I'd call too

I take Magnesium regularly and still get migraines. And I'll bet other migraine sufferers, especially those with far more serious migraines than I have tried magnesium too. So definitely not the only cause even if a possible cause for some.

I think I've read the same thing about vegans and B12. People who eat animal products get the B12 because the animals are eating the dirt, and it gets into them and thus into the animal products, but vegans generally need to supplement. (Or eat dirt, I suppose, but I think I prefer my lemon-flavored B12 supplement to that.)

Not enough dirt, not enough parasites...modern life sucks. Let's go back to the caves.

I live next door to a Buffista, AIFG.

I'm quite happy to take supplements instead of eating dirt. I'm also happy to sneeze for a month or so out of the year instead of having parasites all year round. If my allergies called for epipens instead of kleenex, I might feel differently.

Only if we can get cable in our caves.
