    WHY are people voting for McCain?

    I think this conversation is relevant.. and though you may think they shouldn't vote for them based on this, why do you think it is your place to tell someone why they should/shouldn't vote for someone? You can't govern what is or isn't important to people.

    This thread is going to be sooo inappropriate!

    Ew.. you didn't notice the vitamin taste?? I did that once with a bag of sugar free gummy bears.. was a beautiful laxative

    For sake of debate.. We are all terminal. We are all going to die. So, we're all technically dying, right this very moment! And someone who is (I won't say 'little depressed' because there is a difference in teens who get sad and weepy and grow out of it, and people who live with chronic debilitating depression) severely depressed and have such a poor quality of life, they are no different than these 'terminally ill' patients (although, again, we're all terminal). Just wanted to throw some food for thought out there, because there's so much more to consider. Someone with mental disorders that cause debilitating depression do not 'get over it'.. this is the rest of their life.

    It's more logical for people to be held accountable for their own responsibilities.
  6. I did have to pay for the new band (upfront) it was $1,200 for the replacement.. which they refunded. I had to pay it to the hospital, they purchased them. If they did have to replace it, Allergan was going to investigate covering the cost. Hospital/anesthesia was a lot cheaper than my first time around, but this 2nd time I was only in the hospital for a couple of hours and not overnight.
  7. Oh no Tracy, I am so sorry!!! How much did they raise it?? Why would they raise it? This a bait & switch? We just got a new flow-chart for management operations around here, they are hiring a QC kind of person (THANK GOD) who I have a lot of confidence in, I've known him for years and he has been GM of restaurants around here since I've known him..very good at management.. anyway, the new flow chart just lists managers and the heirarchy of departments below them. Russell is going to be excited to see his name on there. He's not a manager, but he runs the IT department. Just went to TGIF's, I got the Jack Daniel's burger.. just for the fries. I am craving fries a lot lately.. dipped in mayo & ketchup. Mmhm.. So I ate 1 bite of burger, plus all my fries.. Russell ate the rest of my burger (It was pretty good, was hoping to have it for dinner!). I was googling trying to get suggestions on natural ways to get energy boosts while pregnat. I have been sooo friggin tired the past week or so. I could fall asleep sitting up at any given moment. And just for 2 seconds, I closed my eyes driving us home Wednesday night.. eek! Looks like there's no good suggestions.. stay hydrated (I do), and sleep good hours at night (definitely do, I go to bed not long after we get home everynight). One website says the sleepiness goes away after the 1st trimester.. here's for hoping. I officially enter 2nd trimester next week!! :w00t:

    Checked your 401k Lately?

    Damn I am down 26% today.
  9. I guess that's how I am, I just don't believe this good thing will happen. And wow, can't believe you're due already..seemed like only a month ago you said you were pregnant!
  10. Adorable Terry! My dog is on thyroid meds, we get 90 pills for like $15.. so $5 a month. I found it online for $3 a month, but since it's not too expensive from the vet, I go ahead and get it from her. I am listening to "In My Arms" by Plumb, making me weepy. Hah.. I gotta quit listening to sad songs at work. I've been having the most painful bowel movements of my life.. ugh! You're not a loser Pam! This morning we were running an hour late when I woke up and we still both needed to shower. So I was scrambling, made him scramble.. walking out the door, and his cell says it's 2 hours earlier than I thought it was. My clock was off somehow! I knew it seemed unusual hard to wake up at 10am today lol.

    Hah Hah.. I actually knew 1 person who had it when I was growing up. She was older than me by a few years, a church friend.. she was very large.. and she disappeared for a few months.. came back skinny, knock-out, and all the guys wanted her! She said it was a tapeworm, and I was like "You're so lucky!"--I was about 13 then. She told me how miserable it was, she was hospitalized for a month I believe, ended up a year behind in school, etc. So.. tapeworm diet does work!
  15. We don't use bacon enough to go through the normal bacon before it goes bad. The instant bacon, isn't good in a skillet if you need it for cooking, and it's not good crumbled in anything. But it's good to eat by itself, and 4 pieces are only 70 calories, which is less than 'normal bacon'. So I eat it as a snack sometimes. I do wish normal bacon came in smaller packs so I could have it around, I have tried making recipes that call for cooked bacon, using instant bacon.. instant bacon gets mooshy and doesn't have the grease in it needed for cooking with bacon.
  16. Have you called to make your first appt? My doc doesn't see the patient till they're about 8-12 weeks along.
  17. Use the online due date calculators. You enter the first date of your last period. Besides that, if anything else is different (when you actually ovulated, since you think your cycle is out of whack) there's really no telling. Your first ultrasound, they will be able to know based on size of the baby. According to one calculator, based on the first date of your last period, due date is: Your baby will be born on or around Tuesday, May 26, 2009. You are about 6 weeks pregnant.
  18. I tried making chocolate covered bacon a few weeks ago after seeing online pics. I used my instant bacon (the kind you don't refrigerate and heats in 20 seconds). Was not very good, but I want to try it again when I have real bacon.
  19. She needs to join us here!!

    setting fonts on replies

    Very cool addition, thanks! Century gothic is one of my favorite fonts, me happy.
  22. Went to OG, I always get chicken scampi.. they had something, didn't say new, but I never saw it before.. Seared Chicken & Gnocci Vermese (I think). Oh.. my..goodness. I think it's the best tasting thing I've eaten in a LONG TIME. I had plenty of left over, so that's my dinner tonight too. That drama lady at work, she apparently is saying she is pregnant and harassing one of the guys in the back.
  23. I'm confused about contractions, contractions are only unsafe if you're a high risk pregnancy. That's what I've read. Orgasms cause uterine contractions.. and it's fine, as long as you're not high risk.

    Moving toward Being Single??

    You need to do what is best for you, and it's not uncommon, there has been people posting about this before. Count your blessings you guys are so amicable about it. I've heard, it turns into someone cheating on the other, because of any number of reasons much like you stated.. feel like they're missing out suddenly when they get self-esteem back, etc. and it turns into a brutal war.. and kids involved. You need to just keep looking forward to the future, and keep yourself number 1 :cool2:)
