Any chance someone will explain this to us 'clueless' DISers out here?
Not that I really need a reason for a man to admit he's wrong, but I'm really curious now........................
Okay - for those of you that asked what the bet was - here you go.
I have a very rare autoimmune disorder that causes me to be in constant pain. I heard through the grapevine on my support group that a certain diet with a lot of restrictions could help ease some of the pain.
The problem was, most of the food I loved was restricted. Basically I would be on Atkins intensified - and I hate meat!
So Matt (DH Obi-Wan Pinobi) mentioned it one day right after I started. He jokingly said he should take bets on how long I would last since I was already looking at my latest meat offering with disgust.
Alex brought up the bet that I couldn't last a week and set the terms. He decided the loser would have to post here that the other person was a God/Goddess. He lost
Little did Alex know with some of the crappy medicine that I have taken over the past 4 years, I could go without eating anything for a week with no trouble. He was done before he started!
And that - is the reason why I am a Goddess in Alex's eyes *swoon*
OK, I'll even give the thread a Bump to offer Pixie Dust to MeanLaureen. Pain is something that no one likes or wants. I hope it is working well for you. I will also dend some Pixie Dust to Obi-Wan, I am sure this illness has taken it's toll on him. The more you love someone, the greater your pain.
