I LOVED Scrubs - until they jumped the shark in the last season. JD was supposed to leave and the other characters carry on - instead they bring him back and drop Eliot and Carla
I posted this in another thread, so sorry for reposting it here, but I really need to talk about it and I can’t talk to any of my IRL friends and family since I don’t even know if I am really having any problems as of yet until I can call my doctor and go see her:
I am having a bit of a freak out. I noticed spotting on my tissue last night when going to the bathroom after coming home from working out, and now it is 5am and I am having stomach cramps and still a little spotting. I am only about 12 weeks pregnant so of course I am still worried about miscarriage. I have been worried this whole pregnancy about miscarriage and having an uneasy feeling in my mind about it. I have to wait 3 hours before I can call my doctor. I don’t know if I can make it that long without totally freaking out. I can’t get out of my head the image in the first ultra sound of this little tiny life and hearing it’s heart beat. I don’t want to lose this baby and I am afraid I am going to. I don’t want to tell any of my friends and family yet because I don’t want to needlessly worry them, but I feel so alone right not now. How would I tell them if I did miscarry? How can you even tell anyone?
{{{Apes}}} Please try not to make yourself crazy. Get to the ER if you’re really worried. Don’t fret about telling anyone anything until you know there’s something to tell. We’re here for you!
And on a less serious note, good morning, I’m at my desk eating some blueberry yogurt, wishing I could have stayed in bed. Suddenly, I miss being retired, but I’m sure that feeling will pass on payday…
If the leaves dry out enough in the yard, I’ll be driving the sucker-mulcher around tomorrow or Sunday. Tomorrow is my sweetie’s 56th b-day and for 2-ish short months, he’s only 2 years younger than I (hush - I know how it works. Don’t try to reason with me!!) He’s been in a funk and doesn’t want to do anything for his birthday - I’m going to at least try to drag him out to dinner.
Meanwhile, I need to get thru today. I’ve got one drawing to fix and I’m still messing with a stress analysis report. Just another day in paradise!!!
Happy Firday!
sorry FCM, I didn’t mean to be such a downer. 
You have nothing to apologize for! I am concerned for you and I hope everything will be OK. If my post came across as flippant or snarky, I am sorry. Good thoughts coming your way…
Thanks {{{{FCM}}}}
{{{{Apes}}}} And what Mooommmm! said.
I’m off to irk.
Good Mornin’ Y’all! Up, caffienated, brekkied and at irk so no yawns. 
‘Tis a cool 41 Amurrkin out with a predicted high of 81 for the day. Quite a temp change! I met OYKW for brekfast at the world reknowned (well in my world) Pearlie’s Restaurant. Great place for brekkie and N.O.L. They’re only opened for those two meals but ol’ Pearlie makes a killin’. The place is pretty much packed out between the hours of six a.m. and two p.m. Anywho had a biiiiiiiiiiiig brekkie of scrambled aigs, bacon, grits and bizkits. YUM!
{{{Apes}}} it’s always ok to come in here and vent, complain, whine or whatever. We’re here for that and silliness. Prayers and good thoughts headed out that everything will be ok.
StickyBuns I might run with scissors, walk outside in my underwear (ok only in the privacy fenced backyahd but still it’s outside), go get the paper out of the mailbox wearin’ only my bathrobe and post while nekkid but I would never, never, ever waste tp! :eek: The horror! :eek: Why I’d sooner fry burly butcher bacon nekkid.
Butters yay for raise!
In a little while I must head down to the south forty to see my thief. Also, I should go by and see the folks at the senior center where my participant that died was trainin’ just cause. I should find out what funeral home is in charge of arrangements so I can at least pay my respects as well. Fun day!
Happy Firday Y’all!
Apes, don’t ever worry about venting here. That’s what we’re here for. I hope you’re able to call the doctor soonn.
It might amuse you to know that I watched this movie for the first time ever in the middle of a medicine changeover amidst the second worse depression of my life. :smack:
Not my brightest moment.
Now I’m up and groggy because I had quite the lovely nightmare. Today I’ve got to get myself in gear and get ready for tomorrow’s show. Normally all my stuff would be in my van and I’d just have to go set up, but since my van was in the shop, I had to unload everything and now I get to reload it.
Happy Firday, everyone!
My brain hurts. **FCD **just asked me to tell him what I know about rivets. I used to know lots, back in the olden days when I did aircraft structural design. But that was mostly pre-Y2K - heck, pre-1997! As we talked about it, some things came back to me, but only dusty bits. I used to know part numbers and tolerances and allowances and all that engineering stuff. If you don’t use it, you definitely lose it, and I’ve lost it.
Oh what I’d give to have a few of my old drawings in hand…
And, thanks, swampy, for the image of you in your unders. What I picture is something worthy of an episode of COPS - da bear in a stained wife-beater, faded boxers, no shoes, with a beer in one hand, and maybe a ballcap. I’d add a cigarette, but smoking’s bad!! 
Hope I can purge this from my mind before bedtime - I don’t need night terrors!!
OK, quit interrupting me. I’ve got work to do!!
{{{{{{{Apie}}}}}}} Could your worry and fretting be a self fulfilling prophecy? I’m confident that your doctor will tell you you’re fine and that it’s normal. {{{{{{{Apie}}}}}}}
My new image of FCM.
I wish my smartphone was a little less smart. I was trying to dial the number to refill my grandparents’ prescriptions and it was moving slowly and brought up in the call history the last call made to me from D’s phone. I don’t need to go down that road right now so I deleted the entire history so it can’t happen again.
Now I need to find something completely engaging so as not to replay that whole night again. Somehow studying probably isn’t going to cut it. :dubious:
ETA: It’s kind of funny that this got to me. Just yesterday I made a preemptive strike on all the winter coat pockets so I didn’t get surprised with some reminder of him that’s been stuck in a pocket since last year.
{{{Apes}}} If you can afford it, I’d suggest the emergency room if you can’t get to the doc ASAP. The peace of mind, or at least knowing what’s going on, will be worth it. And of course you can vent here, silly; that’s what we’re for!
{{{Sticky}}} There’s an even better reason to boycott the coat pockets: eventually this WILL hurt a little less, and then one day you’re going to find a little ‘gift’ from Dave, and that’s what it will seem like: a gift, not a curse. And your day will be brightened with the reminder that you had him for his time, and he’s just coming back to say “Hi, girlie” once in a while.
Yay for raises, Butters! It always feels good to get a little recognition, and money never hurts, either. 
For some reason I wanna cook bacon now. Just not in the nude. 
(((((Apes))))) - no need to apologise about venting in here, we’re here for whatever comes along whether it’s serious or silly. I hope everything turns out well for you though!
(((((Olives))))), you’re another one who has no need to apologise. You’ve had so much to deal with, it is inspiring to the rest of us to see that you’re still standing. I really do hope you find the help you need and if nothing else, you know you can come and unburden yourself here. Swampy might even be persuaded to share some of his cookies. Well, stranger things have happened, right?
(((((The rest of the MMP))))). Just 'cos, yanno?
It’s Friday, I am leaving for home in precisely 36mins…and tonight I’m off to see one of my favourite bands Sabaton who are playing in my town which is very exciting because it means I don’t have far to travel! There is already controversy over this tour and they’re only on day 2 in the UK, simply because they sang a few songs in Swedish. Well, they are from gasp Sweden…and their newest album focuses on Swedish history and is available in both English and Swedish…oh, the horror! How will I cope?
Boofae, everyone’s just afraid they’re going to be another Abba
Happy Firday!
Up and done irk for the am session.
I feel alive today as compared to yesterday.
I couldn’t sleep Wed night and walked around like a zombie all day Thursday,
sah-kid got home early today, so he’s already come charging in saying he’s hungry. He’s 17, he can make his own lunch. I’ll fix something more elaborate after I catch up here.
Got to have our priorities you know.
{{{Apes}}} I’m sorry you are going through so much worry. I spotted when I was pregnant and everything was cool.
**{{{SandS}}}
{{{Olive}}} **
and {{{everybody}}}
They could be as successful as Abba but they’re never going to sound as crappy as they did!
