    Torn meniscus?

    This sounds horrible. From what I've been reading, this is a potentially major source of disability in middle to late age. You should see me try to walk... it's pathetic. I really don't want to deal with this as often as I have been. I might need to give up waitressing....

    Torn meniscus?

    P.S. Don't feel bad, you didn't hijack my thread at all. I found the information useful... a little scary, but useful.

    Torn meniscus?

    Oh man... you guys have really scared me! I such a chicken about surgery. I thought it was under a local, too... you mean they usually put people under a general for just an arthroscopy? I really hope I don't need surgery, but today, walking was extremely difficult and now I'm using crutches...

    Torn meniscus?

    Anyone ever had this knee injury? What did it feel like? Did you have surgery? Doc said I might have it, but he'll wait until I get back from my trip to do an x-ray and to make sure the pain isn't from just a sprain. This sucks. How am I supposed to enjoy California on crutches and in a...

    My horrible, terrible, no good, very bad day....

    I am so angry with myself right now. My husband and I were taking my parakeets (budgies) to my in-laws so the load on my mom would be lightened while we are away on a week-long trip to California (for business, but his boss is paying my way if you're remembering when I've complained about not...

    Americas Next Top Model

    http://www.cwtv.com/shows/americas-next-top-model There's the pic I was speaking of... and if you look at the individual portfolio pics, it is even more evident that they have the exact same body type. I think if I saw a person that tall and thin and twiggy in real life I would tell them to...

    Americas Next Top Model

    Sometimes I watch this show for the drama... reminds me how glad I am that I am not a model, even though I wish I were one. I saw the pics on the CW site and man... I think the only criteria this year was "must be over 8 feet tall and have stick appendages" because most of them are fair to...

    Flat Chested Kitten Syndrome

    I had a litter where one kitten (I suspect) had mild FCK and survived. I don't know if anything I did helped or not, but there are some exercises you can do with them to help out, and even home-made braces you can try to guide development. I'm no expert, but feel free to PM me for support...

    Your "official" bra size?

    Yeah, it was definitely a study that needed to be done. We need better bras for sure!!! But I still found it very humorous.

    If you more person says...........Rant

    I'm glad to hear they at least are going to see you... but they shouldn't wait until they get your records!!! I'm in the healthcare profession (at least have been in the past as a pharmacy student and am about to enter it again as a nurse) and it really angers me to hear stories like this. I...

    Embarassed my mom

    I'm a waitress and I love to do that for people. It's so much fun to see their reactions! Just be sure to tip extra for it, I know at where I work, it really does interrupt your flow of things even if you are just a little bit busy.

    Need lots of vibes*long*

    Holy crap, you sure have been through a lot lately! Here's for you. I can relate, times in my life have been like that too. It's hard to stay focused, but you can do it. Just enjoy what you do have, even though it may not be much.

    Minnesota must have the world's worst "climate"!!!

    Indiana is kind of like that, but we rarely get those extremes and we obviously don't get as cold. I want to move to Minnesota. I kind of like it cooler, but my husband wouldn't stand for it. He'd rather move to Texas. I guess we have a good compromise now, unless we ever get the money...

    Your "official" bra size?

    Speaking of bras, ladies... Someone actually got funding to do a study to see how much women's breasts move during exercise. http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/20725154/ I usually wear a 38C or a 40B, but I have the problem of being less full on the top, so they don't always fit very well.

    Question about the first domestic shorthair cats?

    Your second question is a very good one! Perhaps they don't totally revert back to the tabby coloring completely because some feral colonies are always being added to by the pet population, which has a more diverse genetic makeup when it comes to fur color. Some fur colors can be dominant...
