I found out about Jiro was a victim of domestic dissent!
 
This morning, I went to Christmas shopping. So, I am finished to xmas shopping. I had to wrap up the presents and put them under tree. whew!!! :)
 
I did not finish shopping yet. Still waiting until Christmas eve. It's exciting!:lol:
 
It's hella busy at the stores today, the snow/ice and all the mess of sand for traction didn't stop them from going out.
 
That's what I saw earlier! CRAZZZZZZZZZY! I'll wait till my hubby gets home so I can go to Wal Mart to finish shopping! Hey it open 24 hrs! :lol: OR I'll kick his butt to his friend's house for few hours so I can get them done. Either way will works!

I was one of them! :lol:

Only I had to drive over to Astoria to go to Costco and Fred Meyer's. The scary part was that I had a near panic attack driving across the bridge!

Driving over it was no problem but once one enters Oregon via the bridge--you go up at a 45 degree angle and back down with two sharp turns! That was where I had my panic attack as it was covered in snow!

I included a picture of the bridge so that you would get an idea......
 
I am confused. Is that thing going out over the water the bridge?

If so I am glad to be in the landlocked midwest!
 
Bottesini-- I LOVE your signature with an elf with xmas lights wrapped around him.

Happy Birthday early! I always thought Christmas Eve or Christmas would be a bad birthday . Do you get enough presents for both?

:ty: I had lots of presents for both from my family when I was child. Now, I have few gifts on my name under my christmas tree in my livingroom.

Yes. It is a 4.2 mile bridge crossing the Columbia river. If you look west--you will see the mouth of the river clashing with the Pacific. If you look east--you can see Mt St Helens on a clear day.

It could be fun crossing the bridge but can be hair-raising at times!

I have the DVD, unfortunately its not the Anniversary Edition, so I have no leg lamp lights to hang in my bedroom windows. (My mom even stated - "But its for a GUY!" I told her I didn't care, just the idea of little legs hanging in my room amuses me, :lol:")

Yeah I know that bridge. :P I haven't driven on it yet though. It's a pretty messy December we've had so far. :(
 
Sorry I got angry earlier, though nobody seemed to notice much. I guess I'm just confused at the weird things happening to me, but that isn't an excuse. I shouldn't have said anything.

The thread I was talking about was a metaphor. I went to hospital and almost died, then finally got home after spending 4 days there, and I wrote a post to this thread, and it got ignored by everybody, and all anybody is worried about is some obscure outdated grammar.

:hmm:

I guess I'm not over it yet, so I'll take a few more days off. Later!

:shock:
I had no idea you have been in the hospital (but then again I dont check AD.com daily like I used to.)

Im glad to know that your OK now, and I'm curious as to what caused it all? I spent 4 days in the hospital as well as I was 1 point away from getting a blood transfusion with a failing kidneys, UTI, exhaustion, and a host of other ailments.

That sounds eerily similar to what happened to me! But my response will be my usual long-winded elaboration. In short, my latest news is my doctors are still arguing over whatever caused my illness. It seems to have gone everywhere from water and foreign fruit poisoning to Crohn's Disease and a super bug from too many antibiotics. My blood was nearly as thin as water, and my BP was dropping steadily. I was bleeding out of every hole in my body, and in some places where there were no holes. For a couple of days, everybody who came to care for me was wearing a yellow bio suit (probably when they thought I had a super bug). Two of my doctors so far have told me that if I hadn't gone to hospital, I would certainly be dead now. I was put under for an "emergency colonoscopy" (sp?) to investigate the bleeding there, and I understand something unexpected happened to me during that procedure, but I don't yet have full details on it, and I hate to speculate. I got to see some ugly pictures of my insides though!

I've yet to feel like myself, so it's no wonder I'm not acting like myself. This was the first time I've ever spent nights in a hospital, and it wasn't as fun as it looked from a visitor's point of view.

I'm writing too much. I confess that is actually like me, but I just have one more thing I think has to be said since it involves whether I belong on this forum or not.

A few days after returning home, some of my hearing has begun to return in my right ear, and today, some also in my left ear. There is no explanation for that. As I understand my hearing loss, this is completely impossible. However, I or my doctor obviously don't understand it correctly since it is happening. I still don't have enough hearing to rejoin the hearing world, but I feel like I've become an alien to both worlds now, and I no longer know who or what I am. I've told everybody I know that I'll be deaf for the rest of my life, but now it seems fate is trying to make a liar out of me.

But you did express agony about the loss of music. So now you will be able to regain that if your hearing continues to return. There is always a bright side to everything.

Do watch your grammar though. We worry most about that on this forum.:cool2:
