Rally Girls Off Topic Thread

Everything NOT related to Taylor, but let's be honest, Taylor gets mentioned here as well.

I didn't even notice. TY!

My gallbladder had no sludge, stones, or infection. It was perfect on ultrasound.

I'm into the second season of Man in the High Castle and I'm enjoying season 2 so much more. Also nice to see Taylor's friend Josh Pence randomly in an episode.

My friend that had hers removed a few years ago it took like five years, she was always having attacks and doctors didn't really believe it was anything other than a hormonal imbalance. I think it was a HIDA scan that finally gave her the results that she needed to have it removed.

That is an evil evil test!! That's what found it for me. SOOOOO painful, and I've had two kids.

Sorry everyone isn't feeling well. My cold symptoms are gone but I always have odd stomach issues. I just live with them. Probably not a good idea. BUT I have been having these weird dizzy spells... not really dizzy, just like a weightless feeling. So strange. I think I need new glasses, which I have been putting off because they are so damn expensive.

Still doing the BlueBloods Maisel Mad Men Sopranos rotation. LOVING Masisel. Literally sat up in bed laughing last night at Susie in the Catskills. NOT a fan of her father though. 2 episodes left in all from my Mad Men rewatch. Glad I did it because I didn't remember half of it, and I think I was so attracted to Jon Hamm's good looks that I didn't realize what an ******* his character was. Also didn't appreciate Elisabeth Moss's performance the first time around.

I hope your kitty is doing better.

My cousin is flying into the city for a meeting Monday, so we are doing dinner Sunday night. Other than that, nothing exciting going on.

I've had that weightless feeling before. Like that I might need to stop and hold on to something, it used to happen to me a lot in Home Goods specifically and sometimes Target...so so weird, but it always seems worse when my allergies are acting up and got better when I did get new glasses too.

Sam has been doing well since the vet visit. He has to go back in a few weeks for follow up blood work but he's acting like himself now. It's hard to forget about the mass in his stomach and it's driving me a little crazy not knowing what it is.

I'm almost through the second season of the Man in the High Castle and I'm really really loving season two more than one.

I went to brunch today with some friends and we did some shopping at a downtown area near us...it was 45 degrees today and sunny which might as well be 70 degrees in Michigan when that happens in February, it was so nice to be outside.

yes!

It was the oddest feeling and gave me so much anxiety, I even had an MRI. It's something to do with my allergies and my sinuses being clogged up, the outside corners of my eyes also get fuzzy sometimes when my allergies act up. It's almost like the bright lights in certain stores mess with my peripheral vision and make me unsteady. It's so hard to explain though to doctors.

[SouthernSweetieTX]

There are stores that totally mess with me... I thought I was crazy. Thanks for confirming I’m not.

OM woke up near 1 AM with identical symptoms to what I had on Monday. She vomited once, and that was all. She’s kept food down all day. Se woke up with a searing burning in her stomach too, just like me. It’s so weird. This is the only real symptom. I don’t get it.

We’ve been catching up on homework today. OM has a test tomorrow, her paper critique on Tuesday, and another test next Tuesday, which will take her all week to study for. Baby Minion half assed a paper and he had to rewrite the entire thing this evening. I thought I was just editing it, and 3 hours later... he was still working on it. Guess he should have done it right the first time...is it spring break yet?

[worthyoflove]

I told my doctor about it once and was like, "it always happens in Home Goods" and she looked at me like I was nuts. But that's where it happens most frequently! I have super sensitive eyes (those blue eyes), the lights just mess with me.

My dad is down in Florida on a golf trip so a lot of times when he's gone my mom will come and hang out with me...she's been sick and I'm glad she's here. They said she had bronchitis last week and had her on steroids and she didn't get any better so today she went back to the doctor and she has pneumonia. My sick ward continues.

Some stores, with their lights, totally disorient me.

Oh no! That’s no good. Pneumonia is nothing to mess with. The worst part is how tired you feel for weeks after.

[SouthernSweetieTX]

OM texted and said her critique went well. I am anxious to hear all about it!

[worthyoflove]

I"m glad it went well for her!

So how serious should we be taking this corona virus? I feel like when it was bad in China it was still...well, yeah it might hit here, but then the way it's hit Italy and so hard and so fast...I feel like I should be stock piling non perishables or something.

Plus, selfishly, I'm slightly worried about upcoming travel plans and frankly The Monte Carlo Film Festival in June if they're already talking about canceling the Olympics.

I just wrote about this in Max thread - great minds think alike!!!

[worthyoflove]

It's concerning! I feel bad worrying about stuff like that, obviously we should be worrying about our communities here. It just seems to hit really really quick. I know that here in Michigan alone according to the Michigan Department of health they're not testing for corona here without a history of travel to areas where the virus is breaking out...but they did reveal that there are over 350+ people being monitored in Michigan, not quarantined, but monitored...and honestly the self monitoring sounds like the worst idea ever. I don't trust people to do the right thing.

Also, happy Fat Tuesday and Paczki day! I ate two, they were so good. Diet starts tomorrow.
