Well...I'm nicer when I'm not having a nic fit for sure :)

Lol on the degree....what kind of bugs were they?


Nice The Rest Of The Day ....
Bwaaaaaaaahahahahahahah, like ... yeah, sure.

Yeah, the entomology degree was a lot cheaper than the Ph.D. and I didn't even have to tell them about my two jobs. I just told them about the bugs in my front yard, sent them my money plus shipping and handling and got my degree. I don't understand why all these people on here whine so much about studying and getting a degree, it ain't hard.

Turned out to be chiggers. Do you know what chiggers are? They are so tiny you can't see them and they are for sure the bug from hell. They dig in under your skin and cause a painful pustule that takes a long time to heal. They seem to like tight places like under where your belt would be, underwear, happy places, things like that.

So, I did my thesis on them chiggers. It was real long, about like that juice review that Ab did. So the people at that university on the internet were real impressed and they gave me a "C" and I got my degree. I'm probably the wellest edujamacated person here in East Texas with my degrees and all.

And my mama said I'd never amount to nuthin. Showed her!

You know, my wife would sleep until 5:00 in the morning ...


if I'd let her.

Well...it's a good thing you aren't my husband TT....cause I'd slap you silly if you woke we up at 5am or before....

Me too! My husband gets up at 5:30 am to get ready for work. Since I work from home, I typically don't get up until at least 8:30 am. He's so careful to not wake me up as he realizes that I'm not a very nice person if I get up too early. :)

The smell in the confined car really bugged me. I actually couldn't believe it...I've gone outside with her and it wasn't an issue, I've been in bars between two smokers and it wasn't a big deal, but in the car without the window all the way open it was driving me nuts....

I'm the same way. If we're out and people are smoking near me, I'm fine. But, I can't stand the smell of cigarette smoke in a small confined area. In fact, when I smell it now, I get an instant headache.

Ugh....looks like I'm going to have to head to the dentist soon....feels like I need a root canal under one of my crowns....I'm hoping that I can keep the pain to a minimum (C'MON IBUPROFIN....WORK)because I know that I resort to smoking when in pain....on top of that I don't have dental insurance at the moment and know that this is going to cost an arm and a leg....GRRRR....

The ibuprofin is taking very little of the sting out of it....the only plus is that when I woke up this morning I wasn't going back to sleep due to the pain...so I was out the door and at work on time...ugh.

Unfortunately this is a pain that ibuprofin can barely touch....I have already taken 4 since I woke up this morning...I'm going to have to call the dentist and hope that she sends me something good. If she insists that I need tylenol 3 I'm going to drive over to her office and smack her silly.

Gosh Maureen, I'm really sorry about your dental problems. I hope the ibuprofen kicks in and helps with the discomfort.

Try not to smoke though. Your at two weeks now and have the monster licked more than you realize.

Wow, Maureen. I'm sorry you're in pain. I wish the Ibuprofen was working for you. Hopefully your dentist can give you something that will. Hope you feel better really soon.

Hi Maureen. Been following your thread. Congratulations *\0/*

Hope you're feeling better. Dental pain is insidious! If you can get some, try a drop of Bach Rescue Remedy, direct drip on the tongue. Then three drops in a tumbler of water, sipped during the day. You can also use a drop in a warm water/salt solution for swishing/rinsing. It's not a cure-all, but does help ramp back the pain.

We'll see....I have a 3:30pm appointment. I better not be spending a hundred bucks and then her insist on not giving me something for the pain...I hate this dentist (but she took over the practice of the dentist that I liked so now I guess I'm screwed...)

Maybe that's why wimmin in East Texas only have one tooth. They don't have to fool with a dentist so much. Maybe by the time that woman dentist gets done with you, you'll look like one of our wimmin. Ooohhhhh, you'll be so purty!

Better not TT....I could have purchased my house outright with what all these crowns and root canals cost...unfortunately I don't have insurance now and will have to pay for this completely out of pocket...

Yeah...no deal there...other than I'm going to have to fight to get something to stop the pain, she'll try to write me a script for tylenol3 and I'll tell her I'm not paying the 92 dollars (the bill) if she doesn't give me something for the pain that will help get rid of the pain. They act like I'd punch myself in the face to get my face to swell up like this to get a pain killer.

Be sure to tell them when you go in that you don't have insurance any longer. Sometimes some of them will give you a little better deal ... most won't. I tend to put dentists right up there with lawyers.
