Jaysus is right! Christ on a bike like! That is mental. So the calcium was just going straight to his brain? But it must be bound to something to pass the blood-brain barrier?

I know what my afternoon reading today will be.

**Web of science: Calcification AND celiac OR coeliac AND brain"**

Hour 4 in the library, i still can not concentrate.

And i left my calculater at home.

And what i need yo study.

I realise this after i finished a chapter for my thesis.

Balls....big hairy balls.....ginormous hairy balls.

Just balls.

Ilyana 2.0 · 22-04-2014 2:58pm

I had my make-up done, as a little end-of-year treat. I feel faaaabulous!

Roesy · 22-04-2014 4:29pm

Contemplating making some sort of banana and baileys bread and butter pudding. Now to decide whether to try and find a recipe or to wing it.

Tigger99 · 22-04-2014 4:34pm

Well would be a shame to waste the Bailey's if it goes wrong

Maybe recipie foe the first time.

Funny enough I hate bananas in everything except banana sandwiches

Lyaiera · 22-04-2014 6:25pm

I'm indulging the Euromillion fantasies big time today. I've spent about an hour looking up personal concierge services, *Ring ring* "I feel like a Cornetto, have someone bring one to me." :P

I'm considering doing the euromillions tonight. A few reasons:
1) I had an itchy hand
2) a bird pood on me

If they don't scream "good luck" I dunno what does!

Pythia · 22-04-2014 9:55pm

Dear Mr Bus Man (c.c. Dublin Bus),

It's April. It's in double digits temperature wise outside. Just because it's raining does not mean we need the heating on.

Warm regards,

Sullivlo in puddles.

Edited to add:

Dear fellow passengers,

Please be sound and leave the windows open. I may vomit / pass out with the heat if you insist on closing them, and nobody wants a detour via A&E / to wait for an ambulance to come and tell me I'm too warm.

Best regards,

Sullivlo, melting in a tshirt.

Das Kitty · 23-04-2014 8:26am

Morning all.

I got 6 hours' sleep last night.

6.

Feels so good.

Also I'm wearing a lime green t-shirt today. First time for me with that colour.

IvyTheTerrible · 23-04-2014 8:30am

I spent the weekend with the inlaws. God, why oh why do people stay married when they literally cannot be in the same room together? These people have two houses, they don't have to live together, their children are grown up, and all they do is bitch and moan and sabotage the other.
Also the OH's dad has a mental illness but refuses to get treated, apparently he knows he's ok because he follows the way of the gospel. I got the head eaten off me because I put an empty bottle of washing up liquid in the recycling bin, apparently the OH's dad is collecting them, but never told me? I'm not psychic, like. Then the OH's mum invites EVERYBODY for the weekend, but spends the whole time complaining about all the work she does (as if no-one helps her, which isn't true), I think she likes being a martyr. She always watches how her (grown-up) children spend their money, butting her nose into my financial affairs.
God I wish I lived further away from them but I have to see them next weekend, I'm getting a pain in my stomach thinking about it.

PS I'm really sorry for the rant but if I don't get this off my chest I'll explode.

Perhaps find some solace in referring to them as the outlaws?

(sorry to hear your weekend was sh1t

23-04-2014 10:01am

Can you go around cackling evilly at them and stuff til you never get an invite back

Ilyana 2.0 · 23-04-2014 10:41am

That sounds crap Ivy. At least you don't have to seem them more often than you do

I'm officially into study mode now. If you need me, I'll be stuffing my face with Easter eggs and binge watching beauty videos on Youtube.

IvyTheTerrible · 23-04-2014 11:35am

Ahhhh, sorry for the whinge!

Two days is my limit, and I had four days of them this weekend so I overdosed!

Precious flower · 23-04-2014 12:41pm

It's funny, I'm 21 but the fact that I have no cleavage :pac: has only started to bother me now. I mean they are not invisible but they just seem so small and I'm small anyway (5ft, 8 stone) and look about 5 so I feel like I look like a child!:pac: It's really started to bother me only now. Wish I had kind of average sized breasts instead! I'm only a I think 34B and I don't know just in photos and stuff I've noticed how small they look.:o:o

rainbow kirby · 23-04-2014 12:58pm

To A Bra That Fits with you - at 5'0" and 8 stone you probably aren't a 34 band. A properly fitting bra improves how everything looks.

And speaking as someone on the opposite end of the scale - you're lucky! I'd love to not pretty much need armour every time I go running.

iwantmydinner · 23-04-2014 1:59pm

If the question is "what's the whitest thing that's ever happened?" this video is the answer: http://www.nbc.com/the-tonight-show/segments/1596

Ilyana 2.0 · 23-04-2014 2:02pm

I have far too much cleavage. If I could go down to a D-cup I'd be happy

My laptop crashed earlier, taking my morning's work with it. I would give anything to be finished college for the summer RIGHT NOW

You could be right I'm only wearing a 34B cup because I got measured in Marks and Spencers and they told me I was that, though I think for some bra I tried on recently I went up to a C cup but put the band size down to 32 as I heard if you go up a cup size, you should go down a band size. I usually go by seeing if the band lies flat, and that everything is covered and nothing is bulging out.:)

I do like that when I'm exercising I don't have to be worried too much about that, but still when it comes to dresses and things it would be nice to have a more filled in look. Though I'm not a just up and down, I have curves and a butt, just no cleavage!:pac:

rainbow kirby · 23-04-2014 2:07pm

M&S do really, really poor fits. If you're in Dublin try Arnotts, Debenhams or Peaches and Cream and you'll get a better result. The guide linked on A Bra That Fits should give you a better idea too - it wouldn't surprise me if you ended up in a 28 or 30 band with your frame size, possibly a D cup.

sammyjo90 · 23-04-2014 2:11pm

I need to get fitted properly too, i tried that guide a few months ago with the help of me mother and it told me I was a 30E, tried em on and there was not a chance of me being that size! no boobs to fill the cup and suffocating band size!

Gongoozler · 23-04-2014 2:11pm

And good luck getting a 28 or 30 band!

Mars Bar · 23-04-2014 2:14pm

I'm much the same as precious flower. Slightly shorter (4'11) and a couple of pounds heavier (8st 3) and I'd find a 28-30 band way too tight! I'm a 34B and I'm just proud of the fact that my belly is no longer further out than my boobs!

I'd say they are not as small as you think they look flower.

30 is a lot easier than 28, but most full bust ranges (Curvy Kate, Freya etc) start at a 28 from a D cup onwards. 28D is still quite a small bust.

Ilyana 2.0 · 23-04-2014 2:18pm

It's really hard to find 30FF bras outside of the likes of Debenhams, and for not-astronomical prices. And even if I find one that fits, the straps will probably cut the shoulders off me anyway.

When I grow up and get rich, I'm going to buy a tonne of nice bras.

Just get me a Freya Deco in every colour of the rainbow and I'll be happy :cool:

IvyTheTerrible · 23-04-2014 2:22pm

When I get to my target weight, I'm going to get myself properly measured and splash out on some fancy bras!

I'm going to pay someone to invent a Strapless Big Booby Bra (TM) that defies gravity, and patent the crap out of it. Bridesmaids everywhere will rejoice.

Tigger99 · 23-04-2014 2:48pm

The panache strapless one for big boobs is very good. I have it in black and in white.

Lyaiera · 23-04-2014 3:07pm

I'm home at my parents for a few days. My mother has been bugging me to clear the crap out of my room for a year. Half the floor is filled with boxes and bin bags of stuff to throw out. The place will be desolate when that happens. I am pleased with myself.

I got measured in M&S when I was about 16, they said I was 36B. So I wore this size for years as I didn't really grow anymore or change weight.

Then about 4 years later I went to Debenhams and got measured...32A! The lady couldn't believe I was wearing 36B for so long. I've been measured in a few other places and it always turns out to be 32-34A. Some bras in M&S fit me fine, some are way off. Can't wear Penney's bras at all...they are all too big

I always though 34B was a fairly common size, no? I'm just tiny..

Seren_ · 23-04-2014 7:40pm

I've the opposite predicament to yous - I've a small cup size but really high back size. Don't even know what my proper back size is tbh

I just buy the bigger ones in Evans. Does anyone know of any online shops that do nice undies for bigger back sizes? I can never find anywhere.

Well done! Please send me some of your organisational vibes

I've two rooms badly in need of decluttering.

Elomi and Goddess do really good bras for 36+ band sizes, but I'm not sure what cup they start at. Try Figleaves for them?

Yeah, I've looked at Figleaves, but I can never find anything pretty in my size. Will check out the others though! Another way to procrastinate from assignment writing haha.

iwantmydinner · 24-04-2014 2:03pm

Ladies! Has anyone done a veg juice cleanse? Thinking about the PureGreen one. I definitely need a detox of some sort.

Tigger99 · 24-04-2014 2:11pm

Never come across it, but I've read from various studies that there aren't actually any health benefits, apart from a very short term weight loss.

WesternNight · 24-04-2014 2:14pm

That whole detox fad is a bit of a scam tbh. Eat healthily, drink plenty of water, bob's yer uncle!

Ilyana 2.0 · 24-04-2014 2:15pm

I'd say there's no harm in drinking juices along with a tidied-up diet, they do give a great kick of energy. Personally I couldn't do a cleanse though, I'd go nuts not being able to eat properly!

IvyTheTerrible · 24-04-2014 2:16pm

I had a housemate who every couple of months would do a week of only eating green vegetables. He also wouldn't use the extractor fan or open the windows while cooking, JAYSUS the stink in the house!

iwantmydinner · 24-04-2014 2:45pm

Was thinking of doing it in conjunction with like a load of baked salmon and hard-boiled eggs and other good stuff. I mean, there's no way I could function without eating. Mmmm, protein.

PhysiologyRocks · 24-04-2014 7:07pm

Almost the weekend!

Ilyana 2.0 · 24-04-2014 8:01pm

Hello PR

I'm getting terribly fed up in the house all day, trying to write an essay on the Armenian genocide, instead of binge watching Made in Chelsea and polishing off the Easter eggs.

Loungers on Tour - is there a doctor in the house?
