Big thumbs up to Ugly and myLarry

When I was a kid I used to pray every night for a new bicycle.
Then I realized that the Lord doesn't work that way so I stole one and asked Him to forgive me

Was worried because on the flight from SF to Paris I was next to little baby and this could turn to hell...the baby was ok, just the parents were terrible.

Re: Time for a Happy Thread
Guess I missed the part about needing surgery or anything more than fading tan lines from OregonRed,,,, probably need to step into TheBar once in awhile.
But so glad things are going well! Hang in there CO,,, she's fortunate to have you!

Re: Time for a Happy Thread
I opened up my ecology lab manual to read the section for my first lab this year. In it was an example to explain different statistical methods we needed to use in the course. It was about counting the number of eggs in chickadee nests found in different locations. I thought I was hallucinating when I read the "location" names: Black Rock City, Center Camp, Station 3, Station 9, Gerlach, and Arctica. Of course you would never find birds living at Burning Man, but it reminded me so much of home, especially since I haven't fully decompressed yet. I brought it up with my TA and he's going to ask the lab coordinator (who wrote the lab manual) about it. Maybe I've found another burner! They're so hard to find in Edmonton...

That's pretty funny, Fufa. I'd say it's a dead cert. And a little sweet.

I was marveling to The CO about the amazing support, love and acceptance y'all have shown me. I wish I had bigger words than just "Thank you" and "I love you". It means so very, very much to me to have so many awesome people that I can call my friends and family. I know I am healing more quickly because of all the love I've got coming at me from all y'all.
MA, thanks for starting this thread. It's so fantastic to have a place to go to hear about and share the good stuff.

The CO has been taking excellent care of me and when he cannot (because he's WORKING WOOT!) a close friend of mine who is an RN is taking fantastic care of me. I am healing quickly, and am looking forward to being pain-free for the first time in over eighteen months.

Re: Time for a Happy Thread
My friend Mish is coming up for the night. Sweeptea said "Have her park her trailer next to yours and you two can do your trailer park thing...".
We're calling it the first annual Snooseville Decompression. Gonna be cooking spam w/ the flamethrower, do some serious shooting, light off some fireworks, play music real loud, and have a bonfire to end all bonfires, it should be a night to remember.
I'm so glad she kicked her BF down the road. She is so much happier and outgoing now and can come out to play anytime she feels like it!
Yay!
