I hate it when people post just to post.....

But hey, I left them when the election ended, just like I said. And I won't tell anybody that you're rubbin' elbows with a conservative. I've got yer back. Don't want you humiliated in front of yer peeps. :cursing:

Beth, m'dear, I so hate to burst your bubble but you aren't my token conservative friend or even family member!!! I live in the deep south, remember?!? :thumbup:

i want one from your beverage cart....

Me no understand! You want some of her vicodin? Man I have a headache. Flo+thunderstorm=Lala not happy

Thank GAWD!! Whew, that took a lot of pressure off my shoulders. I mean, I don't always do so well when expectations are placed on me. Hell, I can hardly follow the rules in everyday life. :thumbup:

Thats right, I have had on my leather gloves in the mornings all this week!

Yeah, but that's not due to the weather, right?

I wish someone would tell me how to get a cool new avatar.

Put the old one under your pillow and the avatar fairy will bring you a new one!

So I have OFFICIALLY JOINED THE BAND!!! WOOT WOOT!!! (ouch, that hurt)

Anybody teach you the secret handshake yet, Beth?

More like 0.1%. And plain.

Makin' husbands jealous since '83. Plain. (Thinking about trademarking that phrase)

Tap, maybe he heard all the rumors about Plain and that is what has him concerned.

Everybody has heard about me. Except they may know me as "the man from Nantuckett"

Watching the AMA's...yea, clearly Scott Weiland is back on some substance. Wow; he sounded awful.

Seriously? Crap. I love Scott Weiland.

I haven't even attempted to access LBT on my crackberry--I'm addicted to it enough as it is. If I combine the LBT addiction with the crackberry addiction, I don't think there will be any hope left for me.

kinda like me and heroin.

LJM-congrats!

Luluc-officially hate you (storm)

Beth-vicodin - ha!

wtf-my car just stalled on a small hill + it's full. Paid last pmt so it's freaking now? Grr

I take it you are ceding the title "multiquote master" to me, then?

No... Whose palm do I have to grease for that one? And don't say yours! :thumbup:

In case anyone's bored and wants to take a vicarious holiday, these pics are from my trip to Cairns, in far northern Queensland, last year. It was at the beginning of the Wet Season, so the weather is a bit grey but the scenery was spectacular!

Skyrail (12km long!) up the Atherton tablelands to Kuranda (a grey and misty day):

Day Trip to the Barrier Reef off Cairns (unfortunately I lost my underwater camera, so lost all the great pics I took of the fish underwater *cries*)

I don't lie about Scott Weiland.

Um, no, I was at a stoplight and posting from my bberry, tyvm!!! You are a novice, sir.

I'm sure it was just a momentary lapse. :thumbup:

Thank you for the pics. The blue butterfly took my breath away. The bull made me chuckle--it looked like it came out of a Dr. Suess book. Anyway, the pics are simply spectacular!

[Fanny Adams 7]

ERK!! Yesterday's storm was lots of fun but today I'm flying home and all of a sudden it doesn't seem like such fun afterall :thumbup:. Lots more thunder and lightening today too

Thanks Donna. The pics don't do justice to those butterflies either - they moved too quickly to get a good shot! Most of them were around 4-6 inches wing span, and just gorgeous. I think my favourite photo of all those shown, though, is the one of the tiny baby crocodile perched on a branch (in the Daintree River set). He is just soooooo cute!!

PS: Am I boring people to tears yet?

Uhh not that I can recall LOL :thumbup:

Its the second toe on each foot, next to the big one. They are kind of spasming now! Its weeeeeird!!!

[Fanny Adams 7]

I've been getting lots of cramps too lately, mostly in the arch of my foot or calves at night. I've looked it up on the internet and it seems the most common cause is dehydration (not drinking my Water - oops) and a magnesium or Calcium deficiency. I eat a lot of cheese, so I don't think it is calcium, so I'm going to step up my magnesium-rich foods and see if that helps.

Food Sources of Magnesium

Oddly enough, almonds are high on this list and I eat almonds almost every day, so maybe it's just the dehydration for me . This is a constant problem where I work because of the heat - it's really hard to drink enough water every day!
