I don't know if this will fly well here but I thought it would be entertaining and interesting. The point of this thread it to learn one thing about another.

The way this is going to work is that your first post will contain one piece of information about you. Each time you click on the thread to read others responses you will need to add another tid bit and so on.

Remeber. Anything you post here can be read by others and this isn't meant to be some deep dark secret confesions! It's meant to be carefree and fun.


I loved my Viccodin. The doc in the ER gave it to me last January when I went there with BAD gall-bladder pain. Whenever I had an attack (which by mid-february was daily), I took a viccodin. Only problem was it would keep me awake but I had a nice "floaty" feeling!

I miss my coffee, but I want Baby to be healthy!

My fact...I never had major surgery until last February, when I had my gall-bladder out when I was 32.

I had that same problem when I was pregnant with my son. They wouldn't do surgery until I delivered him :evil: I was so sick. Then about a month after I had him, the day I was supposed to go in for surgery I woke up and was getting ready to go to the hosp. I was already turning yellow so I had to go asap I was turning jaundice(SP???). It sucked, I had to stay with my mother-in-law after, because I was not even allowed to pick up my son for 2 weeks after. Those 2 weeks were h**l for me. But I was only 22 when that happened. Now I can't eat spicy stuff :cry: I love spicy foods but get heartburn so bad I am rolling on the floor in pain :cry:

OMG Puddle!! I stayed with my parents after I had mine out. Mom is a retired nurse & I had the best care! I needed it. The combo of morphine & anesthia made me soooooo sick. Got home at 5pm (same day surgery) & vomited every 30 minutes from the morphine! Didn't stop until 2am when my mom FINALLY got medince to stop me from vomiting to actually stay in me.

Only things I can't eat now are spicy foods & anything that has a lot of mayonaise. Still can't tolerate fatty foods. Had salad dressing & didn't read the fat content. Within 30 minutes I ran to the toilet!! Looked at the label...17Grams of fat!

I was in for 3 days :cry: I had to go back in for more surgey the next day. I had so many stones that the duct before tha gallbaldder was full so they had to go in and remove them also. But yep spicy foods and fatty foods. I love Mc. D's (just ate it tonight lol) but get heartburn from that also. Am starting to feel it right now, But the vivodin for the headache should stop that also lol.

Ouch Puddle!!! The ER doc said I was full of stones & "sludge" (fluid that eventually turns into stones), but the ducts were clear.

Fact about me...I will only eat rainbow sprinkles on my ice-cream. I think they taste better than chocolate sprinkles. You might call them "jimmies" where you are...

I hope I'm in keeping with FYI's idea for this thread. I have also taken hotel shampoo etc. I, too, look at the fat content of foods.

I used to like chocolate and other sweets. Tastes indeed do change. Now, my sugar intake is minimal, not by any real action, but by way that my tast has changed. Am I abnormal or what??

I love what I do but I really cannot stand my coworker. She is an administrative assistant as well but I can run circles around her. She gets paid probably twice what I do because she has been here longer but she can't even do her job. She listens to all my phone conversations and butts into every conversation I have with others. She makes me miserable and every single day for the last two years I have wanted to quit because of her. I have complained but it hasn't done any good. She also seriously invades my personal space.

Roxy, I wish I had your ambition. I am still working on my bachelor's and I am so tired of school! I may do a master's as long as I am still working here (I get free college) but I don't have the drive for a PhD.

I was born in Alabama and lived there until I was 14 but consider New Mexico my home. I lived there from the time I was 16 until I was 25.

Roxy, you are never too old!!! Don't even say that.

School and work used to be a lot easier to manage. The older I get the less energy I have.

I LOVE 80's music. Especially 80's hair bands. I could listen to nothing but 80's music for the rest of my life and be perfectly content.

Katelyn, I hate my mother-in-law also. I love the 80's music also. My fav. concert I went to was Bon Jovi. Hubby(boyfriend then) bought me tickets for my 17th birthday. But the best concert that came to me was Charlie Daniel's. He was the spokes person for our company and took a tour of the assembly plants and then the company had a huge picnic, a meet n greet with him and then he gave us a concert. But the even better part was that we got paid to be ther. It was during our work shift.

I hate my mother-in-law too. I can't stand her. I could go the rest of my life without ever seeing her again. The feeling is mutual, btw. I have no idea why she hates me so much. All I have ever done was love her son and raise her granddaughter like my own since her mom basically abanondoned her for 7 years.

The best concert I have ever been to was KISS. Hubby and I saw them in 2005 in Columbus, OH. It was the greatest experience of my entire life.

Yeah, I had my tongue pierced. I took it and my eyebrow out because I got a new boss and he frowns upon that kind of stuff and it was making me really paranoid!!! Neither of those piercings hurt at all.
