Yep!!! That whole public swimsuit thing can be pretty traumatic and I'm really proud of you for going for it!!! Woohoo!!!

Munchkin- are you okay? That doesn't sound right. You need to get things checked. Goodness. Deb - I have all my appendages crossed for Tucker and will be sending positive vibes his way. It brings back so many memories of when my Andi had the same thing. When she'd have an "incident" it just scared us to death. She was much too old for the surgery though. Dee- you go girl! Next thing you know you'll be tippy toeing up and down the ladder! Mal - STOP IT!!! Geez. You know better. We miss you when you're not here! You're fun and funny and we love to hear about your doggie. So there.

You sound like you need a nice weekend at home. Good choice not to go to the convention. I really only post on this thread. The few times I've ventured away I haven't really felt the warm fuzziness that we show each other here. I don't know why people get snippy. It's odd.

Whoohoo!!! It will be here before you know it!!!!

I'm sorry Munchkin. I think you have every right to feel pissed off, but it's not a good state to stay in for long periods. Would a warm bath help? Or a good book? Or a snuggle with your puppies? Or a LARGE martini?:biggrin:

Well I'm impressed that you went at all! You're a brave soul . . .

that's what I figured. I HATE that road. Sometimes if we fly into Portland we'll take that route to the coast. I'm always freaked out by the number of memorial crosses on the side of the road. I hate the road from Eugene to Florence as well.

Heehee! Which casino do you take them to?

Cottage cheese was one of my staples. Yes, the not drinking water thing is really tough, and sometimes I just forget and the next thing I know I've been chugging down water with my meal. Argh. I think it's just a habit issue, but it's a tough one. Your folks sound fun. Not sure about that 2:45 AM thing though.

Dorky, congrats on the award and the NEW JOB!!! That's fantastic!!!:smile2::thumbup::thumbup: Bummer about the stupid roof. Oh, I hate things like that. Hope the insurance thing works out okay. How stressful. Hey, thanks for counting my onederland weight!! Shelbi-good decision on your meds. It's worth it, yes? RR ladies!! - You all look beautiful!!! Denver . . . nice to put a face to a name. Wish I could have been there!

OOOO, I didn't see that conehead! That's funny! But where is the dorky one? I'm worried about her.

That would be awesome if Dr. K. could look at your films.

What a conehead. :thumbup: Oops. I meant bonehead. Okay, that was lame but I had to do it.

Here's the link to the recipe I used: Falafel Recipe | Recipezaar I baked it instead of frying it, and made smaller little discs instead of larger ones. It was great.

Seriously, though. Is there someone else you can go to?

OMG!!! What the hell is wrong with the dude? He must be high :thumbup:. Ok. There's one of them.

Yep, I'll try to find it and post it.

I made falafel last week. You may want to try it. It's really good.

Oh, for Pete's sake. I never thought to check that box. I thought you guys had some sort of "special" smilies.:thumbup:. They shall now become part of my repertoire.

Oh well. We'll just imagine your tootsies on the scale, then. And eggs are a great thing to eat at this stage. Go for it!!

Oh, and congratulatiosn on hitting 299 BTW. I forgot to actually say that. Geez.

You know, I don't miss beer as much as I thought I would. I didn't drink soda, so . . . but I REALLY miss Mojitos! I eventually made me one without carbonation and it was okay, but it really wasn't the same.

The official title is Twoterville . . . and the tradition is to supply a pic of your feet on the scale. I want to know how to get those action smilies too. And I think catcalling would be good.

Your smilies made me want a beer! Every year we have a big "faculty retreat" on the Monday before classes start (this past Monday) and after we have a BBQ and beer. I couldn't have the beer this year. It made me sad for a minute.

Woohoo for you!!! Hey, how is your MIL doing?
