4:58 am
Chessy

Oh well, deep breath, and off I dive into the shops. I may be some time ...

framboise for me, and maudite for him.
we had to climb our way back through the snow with beer in hand to get home, but all the neighbors just decided that we were hardcore. ;)

I'm so glad you shared dc, it isn't pruirient interest but concern. I for one was imaging such awful things. What has happened is obviously pretty serious for him, but not as bad as some of the things I for one had imagined!

If you read the chog posts between JC and M9, you totally would have thought it was something like accident, assault or worse.

Sally-catlover

I am really really sorry that his trip has ended up like this. It was not good anyway, from the little he said, so this is just really bad for him.
12:50 pm

It was shared way back when he was first diagnosed, several weeks after he was back from Korea
12:50 pm

yes dc, still there.
12:51 pm
Sally-catlover

Well we were all in the dark dc, because of different times we all come in and out.
12:51 pm
Sally-catlover

I for one am grateful to you. I was worried for him because he seems so young and vulnerable and I can imagine how I would feel if he were /my/ son.

happily, he has a good support network, and good medical care.

Scrabs, have you seen the movie "Babies"
1:32 pm
Scrabbler

Nope, but I must. My friends have told me great things. However, in my career I have seen babies from multiple cultures--Southeast Asia, Africa, India, Pakistan and have learned about differences in raising kids--feeding, discipline, etc
1:33 pm
bichon

The really great thing about the movie was that even thought the babies were raised under different circumstances, they all developed in the same way.
1:35 pm
Scrabbler

Yep--the nervous system myelinates and skills emerge.

4:45 pm
ChampFit

My people did a 30K yesterday, and it was in the 40's, winds gusting into the 20 mph zone. They were either with it or against it. I FROZE!
4:46 pm
redturtlehead

The wind is a real challenge, I discovered!!!
4:46 pm
redturtlehead

How is your foot.
4:47 pm
ChampFit

BTW...there were 5 "seeing impaired" people running. They're tethered to another runner. One guy ran 30K in less than two hours, and he was partially blind!
4:47 pm
ChampFit

My foot is fine. I'm ready as I'll be. Won't be a PR year.
4:48 pm
redturtlehead

ugh
11:47 pm
rururocks

what did you eat df?
11:47 pm
dfmchfhf

hmm, I like "vacillating" more. I'm going to vacillate instead of waver.
11:48 pm
dfmchfhf

well, I'm eating chicken right now, and apparently steaming it for 35 minutes still allows blood to explode out of it when I take a bite... and about 75% of the chicken is already in my stomach... don't know what to do...
11:48 pm
kimmtoats

Hi dfm, & ruru! How are you tonight?
11:49 pm
rururocks

Hmm.. I'd cook it longer than 35 minutes
11:49 pm
dfmchfhf

(and I've cut the chicken into portions small enough to take ~30 minutes to cook thoroughly.)
11:49 pm
rururocks

fine kim.. you?
11:50 pm
kimmtoats

no. it's done. you don't want it to dry out!
11:50 pm
rururocks

I always cook chicken 40-45 minutes
11:50 pm
rururocks

never steamed it though.
11:50 pm
rururocks

that sounds kinda bland
11:50 pm
kimmtoats

I am fine. Tired. I went shopping with my 21 yr old daughter who was in a foul mood.
11:51 pm
rururocks

oh.. that's the xmas spirit..lol
11:52 pm
dfmchfhf

30 is usually enough for steaming... especially if it's cut into small-sized chunks... :o(
11:52 pm
kimmtoats

I can't stand it when she gets like that. She truly thinks the world should revolve around her.
11:53 pm
kimmtoats

I don't remember behaving that way when I was her age.
11:53 pm
dfmchfhf

it's the latest generation thing... I think some people are calling it the "me" generation?
11:54 pm
kimmtoats

yes! what happened? is it a parenting thing, or what?
11:55 pm
rururocks

could be a self absorbed kid?
11:55 pm
dfmchfhf

It's all about what "I" want... better work hours, better representation, more freedom, &c. &c. ... I can't stand it (and I'm *part* of that generation!)
11:56 pm
Christine

dfmchfhf --even if there's some blood, that alone won't cause food poisoning. Some people eat all meats raw. Perhaps it's the look of it that's upsetting your stomach?
11:56 pm
dfmchfhf

It's society...
11:56 pm
rururocks

I was part of the free love generation.. we were muchhappier
