Evening

Smash Adams · May 2012

Anna, I had my last one on Saturday after my exam. I had myself convinced that it wouldn't be that hard to quit because I only started back in November-ish when everything started happening, and I wasn't a really heavy smoker. I lied to myself, I think.

This is why I feel so close to you! We must have been separated at birth!

Nebb- I was really hoping you'd get some answers, maybe the blood test will make him focus elsewhere?

Nebb · May 2012

I have a tiny tiny mole on the side of my chin that hair always comes out. 2 hairs to be specific. Also right at the corner of my jaw i sometimes get this really thin long blonde hair, which I never notice until I talk about it (i just checked lol)

SEWF · May 2012

I wish H would stop smoking. He says he will when we eventually have kids. As of last week, he wasn't smoking at work, so that a step in the right direction. I need to ask how that's going.

Good luck to all of you trying to quit. Think of how much money you'll save and how much better you'll feel!

Good evening all! I was off today and did half a load of laundry (I just need to switch it to the dryer). Other than that, I was a lazy bum who is still in her pajamas! It was very nice, though.

SEWF · May 2012

And yeah, I have a bit of a mustache right now. Embarrassing. I want to go get it waxed, but I heard it's more painful around your period, so I'm just waiting on that.

Wow, I got TMI very quickly tonight. Sorry.

Smash Adams · May 2012

OMG dudes. This is hard. I have no willpower.

Evening ladies. Just got home a short time ago from the longest staff meeting EVER. But it was a productive one.

We just got word we are officially becoming a charter school of the public schools here for the 2013-2014 school year. We have a lot of work to do to make it happen and we HAVE to stay open next year, which, if we don't have enough students, means we will have to realllly restructure for the year down to just a handful of teachers. But we're already putting our heads together to see what we can do. We have a meeting with the parents tomorrow morning to see how they feel about it.

If this happens, I'll have the best of both worlds. The pay/benefits of a public school, but the job of a private school. I hope we can make this happen.

Me too. I have one right at the base of my neck where it meets my chest, as well as under my left jawbone. It sprouts suddenly like that too

Was just reading our local news and thought of Nebb when I read this:

When facing the potential end of humanity, a person is going to need the right tool, one that can dig a hole, pry open a door, chop wood and eviscerate anyone who dares engage you in hand-to-hand combat.

Enter the Crovel (pronounced CROW-vul), which Tim Ralston invented more than two years ago when he combined the strengths of a crowbar and a shovel. In all his years of prepping, he considers the tool his crowning achievement.

It's a survivalist scepter with a point (and not just the sharpened metal tip on the top of the Crovel, called a "zombie spike" because Ralston knows how to market in tough, if not the end of, times). The Crovel is several tools in one, including saw, hatchet, pry bar and close-combat weapon.

Hi all,
Re: Quinoa. I've found some good recipes for it on 101cookbooks.com It is pretty blandish but it can be really good.
Smash-You can do it!.
Just home relaxing as FI is at a meeting.

[Deleted User] · May 2012

I'm sorry your appointment didn't go as well as hoped for, nebb. Smash, just say NO to the cigs.

I'm making some mac n' cheese, though I don't know if I can eat it. Who wants to hear my super long and awesome dentist story?

I go in assuming I'm getting prepped for a crown, possible root canal, on the very back, top left molar. I'm prepared for this. So I sit back, put on my headphones, and chill out to a cooking show on the Food Network (they have TVs on the ceiling) while the hygeniest does her thing.

The doc comes in and gets me ready by putting this thing in my mouth that clamps onto the tooth and has a rubber barrier to protect the tooth and prevent crap from going down your throat. It's super ass uncomfortable, and since I have a small mouth, parts of the metal was digging into the bone. And they had to keep putting this wax crap on my lips. But whatever, it was tolerable.

Doc starts drilling and uses the most irritating vibrating machineever created in the history of the planet that made my head buzz so badly that I thought I was going to puke. That finally stops, then he starts removing the old filling and takking out the decay. He's talking about the weather, hids kids, and a bunch of other stuff I don't care about because I'm trying to focus on this double fudge cake the Barefoot Contessa is making.

Then he says, "uh-oh." NOT a sound you want to hear with 4 fingers and a drill in your mouth. Turns out, the tooth is such a ppiece of crap that as he removed the filling (done wrong by the old dentist), the tooth pretty much fell apart in the back. And what happens when a tooth falls apart with a piece of metal clamped to it? Oh yes, the metal clamp pops off.

Right into my face. Rubber snapped me right in the lip, made my eyes water. They felt so bad, I felt worse. So now the clamp was out, which means I had to watch my tongue because, as it got even better, all the tooth and decay crap was up in the gums so I had to have the gums trimmed all the way arund the tooth. And doc uses some special laser thing so yeah, watch the tongue!

Do you wonder what burning gums smell like? It's nasty.

All the while, they are shooting me up with novacaine because this stuff hurts like a biittch. It makes my heart race, so my hands are shaking like a mother. They finally finish and make the temp crown and tell me that if my tooth hurts, I have to come back next week for a root canal. They also took pics of the tooth so I could see, and holy crap. There's no back to it at all.

In summary, my mouth hurts.

celticmyss · May 2012

I actually debated making a post about facial hair earlier. I have some slight peach fuzz on my face that isn't really noticeable but it is a tiny bit when I wear foundation. I was thinking about having it waxed or something for the wedding. I'm concerned if I do this though it will just come back darker. Does anyone else have experience with this?

lbarr088 · May 2012

I have a mysterious belly button hair that grows like super long and then I pull it and then reappears. Gross. AND my mother used to tell me I have sideburns. I have blonde hair with a little peachy fuzz closer to my ears, it's not a friggin beard for crying out loud.

... and that is more than I tell anyone usually lol...

Smash Adams · May 2012

OMG Sesh. That's horrifying. I'm crying for you.

mehgank · May 2012

I'm here(ish). Be-bopping around the internets.

I ran yesterday morning, and my right thigh/femur has been on fire ever since (actually, ever since my race at the end of February), and I've been popping ibuprofen like it's my job, but it's still not helping. Making an appt tomorrow to get it checked out. It either feels like the muscle is separating from the bone, or it's a stress fracture. Both of which don't make much sense, since you would figure that my ankles or tibia would go first before my femur/thigh muscles, but my body has always been weird that way. I just hate going to our clinic on base because they try to downplay my symptoms or make me feel like a hypochondriac/pu$sy. I don't want to see the snotty-ass physician's assistant either, she's as dumb as a box of rocks. I'm going straight to the doc this time.

lbarr088 · May 2012

OMG Sesh. That is terrible!

Nebb · May 2012

Sesh

I feel like they should have the decency to put you under when you get work like that done, especially considering how you feel about it. Ive seen adds for something like that here, called like compasionate dentistry or something.

SEWF · May 2012

Oh, Sesh, I'm sorry that happened. Dental stuff sucks. I have two teeth pulled a few weeks ago, and it was the most painful thing I've ever experienced (one of the teeth had an infection). Think of it this way, once you get the stuff fixed, it will be done and it won't bother you anymore. I hope all your stuff goes as quickly and painlessly as possible!

celticmyss · May 2012

That is horrible Sesh! I hate teeth issues.

Smash/Anna - I quit several years ago basically by just getting mad. Every time I wanted a cigarette I gave myself a internal pep talk about how I was stronger and better than that. Each day i went without one was one more day I didn't want to waste by going back to it.

Now, years later I will have the occasional cigarette while out drinking with friends. A few times i have been drunk and really upset about something and went a bought a pack. I always immediately give the rest away to a smoker friend.

[Deleted User] · May 2012

Nebb, normally I'm okay with dentist stuff. I tell them upfront that I clench my toes and fists a lot because I hate the noise, but other than being squirmy, I'm alright.

But this wasn't your average dentist visit. I was fine until the metal thing snapped off and then I was just over it and in pain. I still feel jittery from all the shots.

<div>i quit for almost a year and then the schist (geology swear words) hit the emotional fan in my life and I know it's not true in the grand scheme of things but having a cigarette just made everything seem a little less raw and stressful. Stupid addictive little buggers.</div><div>

I honestly need one day every 1-2 months where I don't do sh1t. Cozy pants, mind-numbing tv, copious amounts of sleep on the couch, and at least one unhealthy meal. It recharges my batteries.

And ladies, don't feel bad about weird face/body hairs. My mom is a strawberry-blonde, so she's very moley, which she passed on to us kids. I have moles everywhere all over my body, they get caught on stuff (watch bands, bra straps, etc) and most of them grow hair. The one on the side of my face grows a miniature forest that I have to tweeze every two weeks or I start looking like a witch on Halloween.

They have no-fear dentistry everywhere down here. They hand out Valium and Xanax like it's candy, pump you full of anesthesia even for a simple cleaning, and have the most plastic-surgeried, Disney-princess dental technicians you've ever seen in your life. It costs an arm and a leg, but if you can afford it, why not?

SEWF · May 2012

My denist is actually very good, and asked if I wanted Vicodin after my teeth were pulled. I was like, "Uh, YEAH!" That stuff was awesome. I still need some work done (I think just a cap at this point, but maybe a root canal and spacers where the teeth were pulled), but my dentist is so awesome, I don't mind as much. Although it really helps that I have such great insurance.
