    Not completely. I get ocular migraines a lot but it's rare that I get the headache.

    Cooking dinner now but don't know if I can eat.

    Bit of grub might sort you out? Hope you're feeling better soon.

    Feel better soon Das!

    Garg, had a stupid anxiety attack. Was getting ready to go out to my class tonight and the idea of going outside just caused me to go into a complete panic.
    Still, glad these attacks are getting less and less and I'm much more able to handle them now. I choose to take conquering each one as a victory.
    Exhausted- cuddled up on sofa with dog, hot chocolate and doctor who now. It's my calm down/feel better routine

    Hugs to everybody that is having a bad day

    Happy Birthday Acoshla.

    That's a great way to look at it, Bubblefett. They're shockingly tiring - physically and emotionally, so keep loading up on the hot chocolate!

    Was just chatting to an acquaintance who was saying how busy they are with work and I was doing the usual chit chat saying I know exactly what they mean, that I'm up the walls myself, then I get the always lovely "Yes but you don't have two kids as well do you? So you couldn't possibly understand how busy I am, much busier than you". Yep, I have 3 low maintenance animals, I'm lucky like that. :cool:

    Links people have to have their own opinion too. They didn't speak so rudely to you when you posted about not liking the ad.

    is it an essay that you are working on or just general stuff?

    It's possible your reading a tone that Links didn't intend, Musical.x?? I've never known Links to be intentionally rude to anyone!

    I think you're confusing rudeness with frustration. To be fair, it's a bit rich for a cisgender person to tell a transgender person that the ad isn't offensive... Y'know, a bit like when blokes come into TLL and reassure us that we're all just overreacting to x/y/z.

    obviously she is upset about it but i understand that Stench was only saying she wasn't offended. not as a catty remark but just adding her two cents to the conversation.

    Cutie your dog is lovely! cutest eyes ever :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,729 ✭✭✭Acoshla


    Ha just heard my half sister is doing her best to convince Dad to get me to talk to her again....purely so she can get an invite to the wedding, NOT A CHANCE! Why would you want to go to a wedding where you hate the bride and know nobody?

    Yeah my mom said she thought Dad was angling for her to help him get us talking, I said it's very simple, she has to apologise for something that happened last year and then I'll talk to her again, mom said "hmm she wants more than that...", hadn't even occurred to me that she'd want to come, why like?? She would only know Dad, his brother, me and my mom. I don't think she gets that none of Dad's family will be there, she likes to cling to them.

    It's not til late next year, she's starting her campaign early :p

    Would it be worth getting a 2nd opinion or are you happy enough with the diagnous?

    I did that once years ago when I was in the doctor's for foot pain the turned out to be arthritis. Had not slept well for a few days and was in a lot of pain. The doctor just said hello to me and I turned into a sobbing mess. I knew her through work so she actually laughed at me, once she gave the painkillers I could laugh at it too.

    I'm due a review as it's coming up to a year now and I cant get an appointment with my original neurologist until November so I'm going to someone else which I'm happy about, I think I'll benefit from a fresh pair of eyes.

    Yes exactly. I said I wasn't offended. I never said Links couldnt/shouldnt be offended.

    The biscuit cakes looks good...but not really... I sort of took the mick and melted a small bit of white chocolate I had in the press and put it on the bottom. Looks ridiculas!


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,032 ✭✭✭Bubblefett


    Fell into an amature ebay mistake- got caught in a last minute bidding war on ebay over a pair of boots. Going in saying I'd pay no more than €10, I ended up spending €30... but the important thing is I won :D
    Stupid competitive nature :P Still, look at the pretties...

    What is there to be shocked about though? Links said "good for you", I say it all the time. And not in a catty way, but as encouragement, or affirmation. I realise a lot of people use it in a sarcastic manner to put others down, but have a look at Links posts, she's never been rude or bitchy, hence my suggestion that you misread what she wrote.

    :D I loves shoes, too many yet not enough at the same time!
    However they're the 3rd pair I've bought in the last week (and all online), I think I'm developing a problem :p


  • Registered Users Posts: 9,286 ✭✭✭WesternNight


    1200 words done. Taking a break before the next 800-1000 words :cool:

    A quick summary of today's events would be mighty... :P

    Do yis not know that there is a special vagina rule?? :p If you push a watermelon sized object out of your hoo-haa, you get to say that stuff, post baldy baby pictures incessently on facebook, use the phrase "Well, speaking as a Moth-er..." in a lovely patronising voice to others, being condesending about how busy you are to everybody else, get to tear the skin off the ankles of passerbys with your bulldozer of a buggy and you get your "park-anywhere" lights, enabling you to park in loading bays, in front of peoples gates, on footpaths, on double yellow lines, corners and (my favourite) leaving the car in the middle of the road causing a tailback while you try to outdo another mother with tales of what a genius your kid is...

    If I ever become a baby bore, please TLL, track me down and kick my ass for me, yeah?
