Quebec’s groundhog was found dead right before the ceremony was supposed to start.
Inara: So. Would you like to lecture me on the wickedness of my ways? Book: I brought you some supper, but if you'd prefer a lecture, I've a few very catchy ones prepped. Sin and hellfire... one has lepers.
'Serenity'
Natter 77: I miss my friends. I miss my enemies. I miss the people I talked to every day.

Timelies all!
Sigh...Mr. S had a major meltdown at school and ran off. The nanny picked him up and brought him home.

That seems like a bad omen. How's Canada fixed for white ravens?
So sorry, Sheryl.

RIP to the wee dude, but what does that mean? Winter’s ending forever?

Metformin (which gave me the raging trots)
Puff of smoke. Delurks
Metroformin doesn't give me the trots, but I discovered on a weekend away that it does give me all kinds of bloating and gas. I read on a forum that people swear by taking digestive enzymes to help with tolerating it. Normally, I take them daily, but I hadn't taken any away with me, so now I make sure to always pack some.

Technically, he was a marmot. And Canada has TWO other (sometimes competing) groundhogs. And you know what? This far North, we're pretty much have six more weeks of winter no matter what the rodent says.
Hi everyone! Happy 2023. Been lurking and thinking of all of you.
More smoke. Re-lurks.

I am taking notes on all this Metformin info in case I end up on it.

Now tagless for your comfort.
I’m glad it’s not just me. That’s why is so damned important, once you and your medical team find and carefully calibrate the pharmaceutical cocktail that keeps you sane and healthy, to NOT FUCK WITH THE COCKTAIL.
I need my fucking cocktail.
Several years back, the groundhog in a Madison suburb bit the mayor’s ear instead of prognosticating.

We just had a long Teams conversation about how they keep the groundhog calm for the photo ops (again, why I like to dial in late, so I don't have to participate in this ridiculousness with cow-workers)
