No studying? Damn! Next thing they'll tell me is I'll have to eat jelly doughnuts or sleep with a supermodel to get things done around here. I ask you, how much can one man give?

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

My migraines dropped from several a week to, maybe, four a year after my hysterectomy. should jhave had it done five years earlier.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

Just had more of an adventure at the airport than I needed. I was picking K-Bug up from her Vegas trip and decided to park and go in to wait for her. As I crossed from the parking lot to the entrance I saw an older woman face down on the pavement. Her husband was just standing there, unconcerned. I asked if anyone had gone for help and he nodded. There was a pool of blood by the lady's head. I made sure she was breathing then held her hand and tried to comfort her while we waited for the medic to show up. During this I texted K-Bug to meet me outside.

The medic showed up and checked her out, the bleeding had stopped by this point. The gal had bashed up her face pretty well and was also kinda drunk. They were going to take her to ER to make sure she hadn't busted anything in her face. K-Bug showed up right as the ambulance arrived. I wished the husband well (though he was a useless tit) and we left.

The number of people who stopped to make sure help was on the way outnumbered those that just walked by. A couple of others stopped to provide tissues and call for help. One gal, who is a respiratory therapist, stopped and stayed with us until the medic arrived. Some people are good people.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yikes, Suzi. I'm glad she got taken care of.

ita, I'd be scared to add hormones, if only because I got a Pill once that gave me crazy migraines, and I'm barely susceptible to them the rest of the time. Actually, I don't think I've had one since going off hbc, but even before that I only had them very occasionally.

OMG, I am going to lose it. My roommate from 17 years ago is coming up from RI with her family to stay for a couple of days. I am trying to clean.

In the meantime, Clio (I think) has diarrhea, and is stinking up the litter box. Oz is therefore peeing anywhere but the litter box. He just peed on the floor by where I am sitting. I am spending all my time cleaning up cat messes and not actually cleaning the rest of the house.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

hitting perimenopause and have noticed a (slight!) upswing in migraines.

that is because you hormones are going crazy -- and bad as early puberty .

A friend of mine recommends progesterone cream -- syas it helps even things out ( health food type store )

OMG, Sue. Good luck with that.

Beth, I have two boxes on the go.

I am trying to dose both of them with probiotics, just in case it's not Clio. (If it's Oz, I better take him to the vet!) Of course, Oz is the one I managed to get the probiotics into.

I would probably be less stressed if I wasn't also anxious about having people in my house that I don't know. (Not my old roommate, but her husband and kids.)

Art Crawl!!!

Clandestinely comeing into b.org to say that I really am still around - just had no access at home and not really supposed to be on at work. (I got in trouble.)

Luckily home internets are back.

Whew.

Not caught up in Boxed Set - did you see the Barrowman casting news?
