Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I won't believe it until I see pictures of the crop circles.
So would a high-quality crop circle be evidence for or against this?
If the circles suck, one might say, "Those look like they were made by a stoned wallaby."

The appointment is over and I'm glad. I hated his office (would have even w/o the gay thing hanging over it). The nurse wouldn't leave the room when I got changed, he and his nurse had zero bedside manner, they never addressed DW once (hell, they barely addressed me). And they tried to schedule me for an amnio with him - nu and uh. I said I'd call to schedule it, but no way am I going back to that office. He also did some scare tactics, but from what I hear, that is pretty common with the 1st tri screening. Anyway, glad it's over and will be finding another specialist for the amnio.

When do they recommend women get amnios? After 35?

move out and draw fire
Did I ever tell you guys (I'm sure I did) about the couple exams of my girlybits I had to have in Greece? First was with the embassy doctor, who I have to see every day in the cafeteria or at cocktail parties, and who was a hardcore fundamentalist Christian with doves and crosses and fish on his wedding band.
The second was an awesome Greek doctor, but she didn't normally look at girlybits, and so probably hadn't realized how weird the large painting of Jesus over the exam table was. Dude was gazing straight down at my privates. I told him "Yeah, YOU never had to deal with this."
Anyway, neither of those are in the same league, GC, but hopefully will give you a laugh.

When I was a kid we had mulberry trees in the yard and sometimes the berries would ferment, the birds would get loaded, and my folks would have to keep the cats inside for a couple of days to prevent songbird carnage.
The same thing happened with the mountain ashes we had when I was a kid (and with the cat).
Ugh, GC. Well, I'm glad it's over, anyway.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
I asked my co-worker if she'd heard about the stoned wallabies.
"Is that a band?" she asked.

Yeah. Lots of people don't do it, but we want to know if there are any problems.

Our wings are not tired.
I'm glad it is over, GC. I'm so sorry you had to deal with that. The whole thing just turns my stomach.
They wanted me to get an amnio but I refused. Told them it wouldn't make any difference in how I proceeded, so why bother. They could take all the blood they wanted. Also, chickenshit. I wouldn't have an epidural for the same reason. Big needle phobic. I've learned to deal with blood draws, but that's it. Don't suggest an IV to me.
