Absolutely fantastically awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Eh, that may actually work for you. When you're pushing and hurting and cussing up a storm, you won't give a crap if you call her something in the heat of labor that you might have regretted with the other doc. :scared2:

That is FANTASTIC!!! That IS a great NSV!! Congrats! :scared2:

Hey, that's better than MY husband did. He likes it long (which mine just won't do), so I went from bag-lady chic shoulder length back to my short hairstyle when I went for a second interview for the job I have now. He walked in the door after work, stopped dead with his hand still on the knob, and said, "Oh, great." :w00t: Coulda smacked him right then and there. He doesn't like when I color or hilight it (over the years it has naturally gone from a medium brown to a deep coffee brown, go figger); he doesn't like when I cut it; he doesn't like when I used to perm or curl it; so what does that leave me? :tt2: Problem is, this short hairstyle really fits me. I get compliments all the time. I WISH I could grow it long, but I just can't. I figure if I decide ever to grow it out again, I will do a body wave -- just enough wave in it to do something. My hair is strange in that it's thick and has body, but now when it grows out there is no rhyme or reason for what it does. It's got too much body to go straight, and it's too straight to use curlers and expect it to keep the curl. It really sucks. So I keep it short. :crying:

Good Lord, people, is everybody a mobster groupie? lol

They can be a bit stringy and tough at times.

Any other day I would figure it was for me, except that I hadn't said much. :biggrin:

Addictive?? Omg, I need another addiction like I need a hole in the head! So... where do I sign up? lol

Did she intend that for you? :biggrin:

Is THAT where everybody is??? Good God, people, I need entertainment here! :biggrin: lol I need to figure Mobsters out. I was busy playing WoW. I'll get on FB soon enough to try to figure out what to do. :smile:

I keep thinking of the Gregorian Chant. :biggrin:

Good thoughts your way, LJM. Maybe he's getting tired of your loud neighbor and the strange-looking food too. :biggrin:

Heck YEAH that's a great NSV!!! I think that is fantastic news, SnT! I bet it feels good. :biggrin:

Yes, it is true -- especially for Southern Baptists. Don't know if ALL sects of Baptist believe this. I remember I was considering marrying a man many years ago, and we belonged to a Baptist church. In talking to the pastor, there would be no dancing allowed at my wedding. I was taken aback as I felt it wasn't their right to say. They said Baptists are against dancing. I showed him passage after passage where it said to "Sing and DANCE and rejoice in the Lord." Nope, wouldn't budge. THAT'S why I don't like religion. Give me God on a mountainside any day. Mankind has completely screwed it all up.

You seem like a really nice guy, so I don't wanna bust your chops, but can we ixnay on the promotions for your wife already? :wink2:

I apologize for not clarifying. I was on my way out the door to see a movie, and I realize it sounded flip. I guess what I mean is that bandster hell is that -- hell. It is that time before the band works but after surgery has taken place. It's that time when sheer will power has to take over, and it can be very hard. Like after my first fill, for whatever reason, I ended up HUNGRIER than before the fill. I was hanging on by my fingernails because I was literally starving just a couple hours after having eaten, and that was never normal for me even before being banded. There WILL be times that we have to utilize willpower, and God knows that we need to work the band. There will never be a time that the band alone will do it all for us. It won't choose good foods for us, it won't make us work out, it won't keep us on track. We will have to do that with the aid of the band. I sincerely apologize for my short stupid post. I should know better to give such a short answer when I don't have time to explain -- OR to not give a short answer like that when I need to explain. I knew what I was thinking in my head, but you didn't. I'm sorry for that. :wink2:

Doesn't sound like it's the band that's the problem...

Hehehe! Gotta figure out some doozie answers for these typical stupid questions, like: "Well, if the water won't go down, try eating a double-double cheeseburger to force the opening a bit. Works every time."

Wow... whatever happened to "in sickness and in health, till death do us part"?? If I were here I'd tell him that she'll get the Lap-Band if he gets a penis extension -- or else. Not fair if only one of them is satisfied. :scared2:

Thank goodness SHE'S not God, eh? Wait... or IS she...?

Ceradad, consider it done. Maybe you could ask pattygreen to help you out too. I know, that was evil. I'm goin' to hell fo sho.

It is a bit... entertaining... isn't it?

My mom says it's really good. It came on last night and I would have watched it had Forensic Files not been on (can you tell I don't have cable and relish any chance I have where I can watch it? lol). I DID, however, catch Nip/Tuck. Wowza is all I can say. I asked my mom if it's typically 45 minutes of people having sex interspersed with 15 minutes of other stuff, and she said yes. Cable sure has changed...

I think the very BEST Christians have doubts and question God or what they have learned. Doubt and questions lead to searching and answers, which is how people grow. Nobody ever grew that didn't seek to research and learn rather than just taking as gospel (no pun intended) the things they are told. Some denominations consider that evil. I believe that God sees it as something wholesome and vital. It is what causes us to want to reach out and understand.

That's how you do it. I have watched more hypocrites bring churches down than anything else. They are like a cancer. So why get involved in a church only to watch it waste away? By the way, you DO know about this board, right? http://www.lapbandtalk.com/f162/christian-bandsters-42609/index92.html#post1121701 Funny thing is I haven't seen anything from you over there. :huh2:
