    Accents

    I can't do accents at all but my brother can do them very convincingly. While at a drive-up window at McDonalds he was speaking in his best Russian accent. He was trying to sell the McDonalds employee a mail order bride but the man just kept saying "no thank you" very politely. He thought my...

    What have you washed and did it survive?

    I once washed the remote control to my CD player. My friend had left it in the pocket of his jeans. :confused3 When I took out all the clothes it was in many pieces at the bottom on the washer. I dried it off, snapped it back together, put new batteries in and it still works.

    Do you have a phobia of going to the doctor's?

    I never had a fear of needles until I had to have B vitamin shots. I always felt like someone stuck me with one of those Ron Popeil marinade injectors.

    Do you have a phobia of going to the doctor's?

    Yes, because yelling at someone will encourage them to go to the doctor. Reprimanding a patient won't cure or heal them. :sad2: Today I had my appointment for my new primary care physician. I prayed all last night that she would be not just a good doctor but a good and kind person. I...

    Do you have a phobia of going to the doctor's?

    I've always had a terrible phobia of doctors and medical procedures and now that I'm sick I'm having to go. Yesterday I saw a hematologist and was nervous and anxious already and when she lectured and scolded me for not having come in sooner I almost broke down. I wish doctors realized how...

    waldorf salad suggestions

    What makes it a waldorf salad is the mayo. I really don't think that is a waldorf salad. The original recipe contained apples, celery and mayo. I like adding grapes and mixing in a little cool whip with the mayo.

    Ever had a bone marrow biopsy or aspiration?

    Thanks, everyone. I appreciate you all for being honest. I know that the procedure is painful I just wanted to know exactly what to expect. I'm not looking forward to it but I'm glad I'm a little better prepared. Maybe I can request to have them knock me out completely for the procedure.

    Ever had a bone marrow biopsy or aspiration?

    I had some blood work done and found out that I have thrombocytosis which is a high platelet count. I've been refered to a hematologist and was told they might need to take a bone marrow sample. For anyone who's had it done what exactly does it entail and how badly does the procedure hurt?

    Possums Are Creepy!

    *shudders* I hate possums. They're creepy and look like giant rats. Can you say R.O.U.S.? There was a huge one in our fenced in backyard that I was trying to scare away but, shocker, it was playing possum and wouldn't move. It was lying on it's side looking dead except that every once...

    Which name do you like?

    I voted for Patrick. I knew a kid named Tommy John that was a monster so it's not my favorite.

    I'd bet money that a man came up with that slogan.

    How often do you wear perfume/cologne?

    I think I get what you're saying. Even if a frangrance isn't added to a product the other ingredients still have a scent. I really can sympathize. My grandmother has had severe MCS since she was a little girl and it's been passed down to my aunt, my mom and me. I don't have it as bad as...

    How often do you wear perfume/cologne?

    Actually if something says "unscented" it may still contain a fragrance but if it says "fragrance free" it's devoid of any scents or fragrances. I always look at the ingredients on the back of the product to make sure.

    LOL!! Well, I don't change into brightly colored zippered sweaters every time I come home.
