The "I've finished the rhubarb pies" MMP

{{{{{{{Bobbio}}}}}}}}

I worked, came home. Making chipolte fried chicken with quinoa with cumin and peppers and jalapeno lime corn. Watching probably the last hockey game of the season tonight. :confused:

It make me not able to function around people(can’t curl up in a ball and sob when you have to deal with people at work). It’s not the tapering, it the dose.

sari, yeah, I’d cut ties with someone like that ,too.

Rockin’ and Airman, congrats!

BBBobbio, :frowning:

Dang, BBBobbio, that doth well and truly sucketh! All kinds of good, healthy thoughts coming your way.

Ice cream has been ingested. Dishwasher is running. Evening chillage is underway. I’m about to shed my work clothes and don a robe for max chillage.

Glad the week is almost over.

This! This is the crazy! A person is irritable as all get out while taking steroids, plus you can’t sleep, plus you gain 50 pounds. In a week. I thought my head was going to start spinning around in circles and I would start speaking in tongues the last time.

I thought it was a group dance? :confused: And now it’s stuck in my head.

I have no earthly idea what we’ll eat for dinner. Donuts sound good, now that I’ve read this thread. Mmmm, donuts.

I decided to adult and mowed the front yahd. When I finished, however, I stripped down to my undies (would have taken them off as well but it was (and is as I post) still daylight), hosed the dust and ick off with the hose pipe and jumped in the cee-mint pond. This was followed up with an ice cold beerverage OYKW brought out to me. BLISS! Now I’m all showered and cleanded.

{{{BBBobbio}}} I don’t know what to say except hope you can get that transplant soonest.

Bobbio. I have a question. I may be wrong, but livers can regenerate, right? So a person can donate part of a liver, and still live, correct? Of course that’s assuming the donor and you have all the same blood type and other markers. Got anything exotic in your genetic makeup?

Please forgive me if this is too squicky, but I’m honestly curious. Having only one kidney myself, I do sometimes think about my own chances at living a longer life.

I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers. I’m developing quite a list from the Dope.

{{{Bobbio}}}, best of luck to you. My cousin had a liver transplant about 2-3 years ago, and life is pretty awesome for her now, compared to the years before.

swampy, if you were in your skivvies, you were supposed to go do some dance at Mickey D’s and report back! (And you guessed my location. Gonna open a breakfast restaurant here one of these days, and call it Wake Up Mama’s. You’re welcome to come eat a biscuit if you get banned from McDonald’s.)

In fairness, my remarks were only in regards to dancing the Macarena as specified by spidey. Otherwise I wear boxer-briefs (except when I don’t).

Got a letter from the Office of Personal Management, apparently in my retirement papers there was one page where I used white-out to change something I had typed. This is a big NO-NO for the gubmint, so I had to redo the form (they were nice enough to send me a new one in the mail, and the one with the error) and mail it back to them.

Spent an hour in a soccer meeting preparing for the tournament tomorrow. I have games at 0900, 1230 and 1800 and may take a fourth depending on how I feel.

So early to bed for me tonight.

In a live donor procedure, 1 of the 3 lobes is taken from the donor to transplant. Fortunately, I have a full sister in excellent heath, and she is most likely an excellent match. My son is also willing, but he has only half of my genes.

Actally, I am thinking of bribing the surgeon with lotsa baked goods to get me a cadaver liver and pancreas so the diabetes is whupped 2 for 1… :wink:

GOOOOOOD MORNING, MMP!

also, blurf.

Weirdness - the pain in my arm is lessening, but it feels so weak! I was emptying the dishwasher this morning and putting things on upper shelves was a challenge. Things like drinking glasses! Very bizarre.

But TGIF! I tel ya, these days, I’m thinking long and hard about why I decided to go back to work. Contemplating a request to just work part time, or just retire for reals. I’m sure the exhaustion from recent events is playing heavily into this, but man…

At least I’ve got a hot, humid weekend ahead. rah.

Happy Firday!

Good Mornin’ Y’all! Up and caffeinatin’. YAWN ‘Tis 67 Amurrkin out and sunny with a predicted high of 94 and sunny for the day. The big plan is to mow the back yahd this mornin’. Maybe by around nineish I can get started. 'Tis really wet out there right now. Possible cee-mint pond may also occur. Other than mowage I intend to slack the day away just cause I can.

OK, that’s all I got for now. I need more caffeine and rumbly tummy wants to be fed. After that, mowage shall ensue.

Happy Firday Y’all!

Up, caffeinated, and sheveled. Closing shift tonight.

Blurf.

I do wear underwear but it is usually under the rest of my clothing.

Transformers keep exploding in my neighborhood this morning.:dubious:
And for the record, I also wear underwear.

Happy Firday!
Well not so happy, I was talking to my friend who irks nights and she said she had to take a call and would call me back. I fell back asleep (overslept and was late for irk) and missed her call back to tell me her mother just died. She was planning to have a party in July for her mom, who was coming up from GA? then. We had just been talking about it and she was saying how much she missed her mom, and I was looking forward to seeing her again. Today is also the one year anniversary of her MIL’s death.
So sad.

{{{Bbbobbio}}}

For the record, I wear underpants.

Bobbio, can you do the interferon shots? My bro did that, it worked, but he started drinking again. Does this stem from the gallbladder removal? You are on my prayer list.

Gordie Howe just passed away. R.I.P. Mr. Hockey.
