Does sound very good! But I’ve already made the cookies. 
And half the batch when to a get-together yesterday – and vanished! – and hubby and I’ve made significant inroads in the other half.
Damn straight!
I love it when I do something I know is wrong and end up hurt from it :smack:
Dumped out a bag of mulch while holding it out at arms length instead of walking around the bush to dump it. Surprise, I pulled a muscle in my back :smack:
Maybe if I hit myself in the head a bunch I’ll forget how bad my back hurts
:smack::smack::smack::smack::smack::smack::smack::smack::smack:
Aren’t toxins the whole point of chemotherapy?
Back to the Doctors office. Stitches are out of my hand. Just one butterfly bandage. The scar is gonna be nasty. I have been dizzier than usual, I woke up yesterday with a stabbing pain in my ear. The Dr looked and I have a bad infection. How is that possible? I have been on antibiotics for a week or so.
And I had a steroid shot. So I have a z-pack now. I am really sick of pills. The pain in my ear is now hurting my jaw and I don’t want to chew. Soup for me. Oh, woe is me!
Maybe your antibiotics killed the good ones in your ear? Feel better.
The last time I was looking for a car, I got really tired of the patronizing car salesmen, too. It’s shocking that they still treat women that way, but they do. On the other hand, though, I used to use their misogyny against them - I’d go test-drive a bunch of cars with no intention to buy anything that day, and tell them I had to talk to my husband before making a decision. 
Ha!
If you start a “Mansplain Me A Car” site/blog/show/podcast, I’ll watch every undercover video you post.
My Tin Can Car got T-boned by a huge truck, and shopping for a new car was painful. I couldn’t believe how stuck in the 1950s some dealers were: “Wait, don’t leave. What would it take to get you to drive this little beauty home?”
Oh, we got the “I’d love to give you a deal. But let me check with my manager…” And one salesman pulled the reprehensible “(Now that I’ve avoided dealing with your pricing questions, and I’ve isolated you in a tiny conference room)… I’m going to write down a figure on this piece of paper. Then you’re going to turn it over and tell me your first reaction to it.”
The price was laughably high. So I said “Are you serious?” and walked out.
“But, sir! This is just an initial figure! We’re not done yet!”
“Well, I am…” [slam]
Sorry, but I think the title of “worst smell ever” is a contest between heated cat urine or week-dead human body.
[draining drool from my keyboard] I love the way you think.
My car is 13 years old -we’ll be shopping again some day.
They really do pull out all the cliches. When we look for a car, it takes us a couple of months of research and test-driving and price comparisons and spreadsheets - then the salesman just wants to show me the vanity mirrors. :rolleyes:
Ah, but there’s hope. A new generation of sales guys…
We finally got smart and got pricing over the internet. Firm price within seconds. But we still had to deal with a salesperson when we got to the dealer to test drive the car. [Le sigh…]
Until I had the brilliant idea to get the name of the person I was emailing, and then I got to enjoy walking past the sales force (the coifed-and-aftershaved 50 yr olds) and asking for Jason Jablonsky. "Waaall, he’s in our… Intern-Net Sales, yuh sure ya really want him?"
Turns out, I really did. Jason was in his twenties and gave straight-forward answers. And when they didn’t have a stickshift on the lot, he found a used car of that model, with a manual, that we could test drive! So after weeks of pain, it only took ten minutes of dealing with Jason, and a fun test drive, to buy a car.
ye gods and little fishes, in my intro to chemo session this morning I was very specifically warned of interactions with herbal and home remedies. I can pretty much say her oncologist would flip his shit to find out she is cleansing.
Yep. I did have strong words on the subject for her husband, but I’m afraid they didn’t really penetrate. Not my place to interfere otherwise.
I love the fact I have a new computer.
I hate the fact I have to set it up. PITA.
First world problem, I know.
Why are we using the April thread?
It would appear that a May rant thread does not yet exist, and I’m feeling too rotten to come up with a good title, so I’d be grateful if someone did.
Please allow me to correct myself. May thread here
This one was the first I saw on the page and it had May in the title, I think.
