Genius??

Captain Beefheart... you are one of the first

modern fucked-up geniuses. When it comes to

creating, you rank right up there with the

likes of James Mangan, John Wilmot and Edvard

Munch.


Which fucked-up genius composer are you?

Shut up, already!!

I don't know what's going on over on the NS bulletin board. There is so much misinformation! Newbies helping newbies----it's like the blind leading the blind! And it's not their fault. Most oldies are over at Jazzman's BB, so there are not all the people to answer questions like there were a year ago. I cringe when I read some of the replies to posts. Like when somebody asked if they could have asparagus and someone else replied yes---just watch the amount. Whaaaa? Watch the amount??? WHY?? Have as many fucking asparagus as you like, folks! It's not gonna make you fat! Neither is broccoli, spinach, brussel sprouts, green beans OR EVEN peas and corn. Yes, I know they're carbs, but who the hell ever got fat eating peas and corn, honestly? I mean, come on have you ever heard anyone say, "I never should have had that last 1/2 cup of peas cause now I can't fit into my jeans"? It's the Big Macs and fries that make you fat. It the senseless stuffing of your body with chocolate donuts and Kit-Kat bars. It's the BAGS of Doritos and potato chips. I swear, people, it is NOT asparagus!
And medical advice!! OMG! Why would you ask a bunch of strangers for medical advice? Generalizations, maybe, but asking for specific medical advice or GIVING specific medical advice is nuts. I don't care if you ARE a professional--if you don't have access to someone's medical history, why would you give them specific advice?
I don't even give SPECIFIC exercise advice unless I know someone's medical history. Here's a personal example: If I were to ask medical advice or even exercise advice and didn't let anyone know that I have a history of 4 strokes, I would probably receive a lot of advice that would be detrimental to my health. If I were to follow some of that inappropriate advice, I could DIE. I don't know if that's a good example or not. But it's true. So here's my best medical advice---ASK YOUR DOCTOR.
I guess what I'm trying to say here, is take it all with a grain of salt. If you really need an answer to something and what you're reading on the board is confusing or you get 5 different answers to the same question, do a search on Yahoo or Google it or Ask Jeeves for God's sake. Then choose a website that you know is reliable. www.discoveryhealth.com is a really good one-
Or here's a thought....CALL YOUR DOCTOR!!

You Are Mexican Food

Spicy yet dependable. You pull punches, but people still love you.

What Kind of Food Are You?

MMMmmm!!

OMG--I am eating  cookies and cream cheesecake. I have died and gone to heaven!
Savannah is feeling much better after 2 trips to the vet in 2 days. She has severe allergies and was sneezing and coughing so much on Tuesday that we thought she might have inhaled something. They knocked her out so they could look up her nose and down her throat and there was nothing to be found. The vet said her nose was completely raw inside---probably just from pollen. The tree in the picture is in full bloom in February and is probably one of the culprits. It seems like everything has started to bloom around here lately. Then Wednesday, we noticed a raw oozing "hot spot" at the base of Savannah's stub tail and on the underside of it. Her tail has always been a problem. It was docked before we got her and whoever did it docked it too much and pulled the skin too tight. We've actually had exposed bone problems in the past. So it was back to the vet on Wednesday to make sure it wasn't infected. Now we have to spray her 3x a day with her "butt spray". There's apparently nothing a lot of money can't fix! Since Thanksgiving our vet bills have exceeded the $5000 mark! Which is better than 2 years ago when we hit the $10,000 mark! But our 2 dogs are our babies and there's nothing I wouldn't do for either of them. If you go back into my blog archives to the month of November, you can see pics of our first big vet bill of the season!

Howdy Doody!!

Wow, I'm so excited. We finally got our new car yesterday. It's an Audi Quattro TT and it's so pretty. I had an Audi years ago and I wanted personalized license plates that said "Audi DO D" and I never got around to getting it. Now I want one that says "Howdy2T". Or something to that effect. Yeah, I know it's really cheesy, but "cheesy" describes my sense of humor pretty well.
I'm getting pretty excited about the new condo, too. I can't believe it's been 4 months since we sold our house and moved into a temporary rental til our condo is finished. I am SOOoooo ready to get into our new place. I just hope it's completed by March 2nd. We're closing on the 1st, but technically the condo doesn't have to be completed til the second. I just hope this all works out, cause the movers are delivering all my furniture that's been in storage. We've had a few construction set-backs, but I'm keeping my fingers crossed. I already ordered the plantation shutters for the 8 windows on the front of the condo and one window in the family room, but I still need to find something for the sliding door and the office and Ryan's room. I was hoping plantation shutters would work on the sliding door, but after having them here in the rental, I don't find them very practical.

If you don't like my cussing, go away.

The whole censorship thing on the Nutrisystem bulletin board is just too darned funny. Apparently they're using some sort of filter to eliminate swear words from the posts. But it's backfiring! You can't write "finish it" because the "sh" at end of finish and "it" form the word shit. You can't combine weight loss and exercise because of the "s" at the end of loss and the "ex" at the beginning of exercise. You CAN write ASS, BITCH and SCREW. But you CAN'T say cocktail.
I'm guessing their filter works kinda like spellcheck. It just can't differentiate so it says everything is wrong.
But what the fuck is wrong with these damned assholes over at Nutrisystem?? (sorry, I just had to write that). Give them a position of power and they become Hitler or Dubya---depending on your politics. I hate people who think that because they have a title, they have control over all things. But like the wizard of Oz, they eventually are found out. So, Stacy Jimenez, NS board moderator---come out from behind the curtain at NS. Click your heels together 3 times and go home.
