I'm sticking with the lust. It's working for me. 25 years of marriage and I'm still in lust. That's what it's all about. When you're no longer focused only on yourself. When you want to do for that other person, even if you get nothing in return. Your goal in life is to make that other person smile. You can't stand to be apart. The other person's happiness means more to you than your own. You can't imagine living life without them by your side. That's love.

That's not a cow.

Oh! That is cool!

Your way sexier than that guy!

Does that mean you are taking reservations? Always. But only for dinner.

My daughter and her friends love Vault. http://www.drinkvault.com/index.jsp I've never tried it. But they seem to like it. I've never heard of Voltage.

Oh! I'm baiting the big one baby!

Not all marriages are struggles for supremacy. Some are actually collaborative partnerships that are a lot of fun. Make sure you marry a jumper. Preferably one that can go camping, do her own nails, and bait a hook. Hey! I thought you were baiting the hook and I was going to clean and cook it. Oh well, I guess I can bait it too.

JohnMitchell and I are doing The Lost Prairie boogie this year in July LEAP FOR LUPUS BOOGIE, Aug. 7th, 8th and 9th And Chick's Rock in Oct.

Yup, I'll say it again, I agree with you. Especially about the hot doc part! However, the last hot doc I had... looked just like Harrison Ford (YUM!) I had to fire him right after my last ICU stay. He was really good up to a point. And you never know when or where that point is going to be until you get there. Then sometimes it's too late. It really sounds like you are fortunate because you have an inside look at who and what the doctors are like. Most regular people don't have that luxury. You can't tell what a doctor is going to be like, for the duration of your medical needs, from a 30 minute interview. Most people don't give doctors much thought until they need them and then they're too sick to go investigating who is the best. Some people have HMO plans that only let them have certain doctors and that's all they get and they're lucky to have that. I still say sinus spray is an awesome alternative to going to the doctor.

And you sound like one of those very rare doctors that take their time and actually look for underlying causes. I love you for that!! Unfortunately that doesn't happen all the time in all areas of medicine. Even if you think you have the best doctor. And by the way...none of my issues are ever one time occurring problems. I have lupus. It's about as pesky as having a chronic sinus infection, maybe, on my good days. Bad days are spent in ICU with lungs hemorrhaging. Lupus "flares and ebbs" like nothing you've ever seen before. I totally understand what you are talking about though. An ounce of prevention.... Better to be safe than sorry. etc. But I still think that if you can fix it at home, within reason, it's a better way to go. I say Kudos to the person that can find a sinus spray, over the counter, that makes them feel better.

And that is exactly why I hate going to the doctor. It takes so long for the doctor to determine that you aren't there for stupid reasons and are in real need of medical help that it's an exercise in frustration. And when your really sick, that is tough! I went to the ER once with chest pain, difficulty breathing and coughing up blood. I sat out in the waiting room for hours upon hours, only to be sent home once I finally saw a doctor with an antibiotic. An antibiotic doesn't do anything when your lungs are hemorrhaging. But then the doctor, upon briefly looking at me and my chest x-ray, thought I had pneumonia and threw a pill at it. So, pretty much you really need to take care of your own health care rather than relying only on a doctor. Do what you can for yourself.

It's been like that for days.

I agree with you, however it's been my experience that VERY few doctors take the time to actually investigate underlying causes when they can throw a pill at it make the symptoms go away. If you can do something at home and save time, frustration and money... It's all good. Now I'm sure if those home remedies or over the counter things don't work the next step would be going to the doctor. But if I can help it, I'm staying home. Besides, if everyone went to see the doctor with every little tiny symptom then the doctors would be so over worked they wouldn't have time to help the seriously ill people.

No, I just went out and bought me some Slim Fast.

What the hell are you doing posting for Valinda, did you take away her laptop OK, I've got John settled with his sammich and beer so I get time to report. In the last several years I've only been able to make around 25-75 a year. Sometimes less if I'm not doing too well. So making 138 this year was an amazing thing for me! It's been many years since I've been able to jump like this. My goal this year is to make at least 140 jumps now.

I wish I was like Billy Bob Thornton in Pushing Tin being married to a really hot blonde . . . Oh wait, I am.

Wow! She just made her 100th jump this August at the Leap for Lupus boogie! Now, just a few months later, she's making her 200th! Congratulations Granny!

My daughter sat and watched me open Lisa's card. She thought I was crazy until she saw what was inside. Then she wanted to know how I knew it was going to be in there! I promptly put it all back so that when JohnMitchell got home from work he could be glitter bombed. He was. Confetti everywhere. Good times. LisaH is the best.

Now thats my kinda cheer!!! I'll be at John and V's

Where ever you go in Vancouver, just make sure when you park your car that you don't have anything showing. Not even a quarter or a piece of paper. Car windows in that town have been busted out for a hand full of change.

Her wing may be a bit broken but her hugs are still awesome! ;-) I hate to brag, but Amazon also brought over a big bunch of Lang's Skydiver Blonde for the party last night. We had a very merry time.
