Ok I'm not crazy, somoeone posted in here and asked about
alpha-1-antitrypsin. I'm not crazy 🙁

I thought that it breaks down enzymes and produced by the liver and seems to be important in lung diseases. At least that is what my google search came up with 😀

was getting way too frustrated with the topics in healthcare forum. and this cured my hatred of humanity, at least for a bit.

I hate that forum. I wish it had never been created. 👎 The only possible useful purpose it serves is to provide a single convenient place for people to have their pointless shouting matches that they euphemistically call "arguments." 🙄
 
Hey y'all...does anyone know how to change the banner on Blogger? I can't figure it out. The stupid template is still staring at me. I keep posting the question on my blog, but I guess no one reads.

I take that back...there are a few dedicated readers! Sniff, sniff!

I'd like to thank my public...the fans...those that comment... 😉
 
Does Lilithny's MySpace pic remind anyone else of Beavis? Seems like she was having a Beavis moment. (Not that she LOOKS like Beavis!!!)

****!!

i just got a phone call from wachovia bank, someone just racked up $1,000 on my debit card over at a local walmart they also used the card at a gas station but that charge hasnt posted yet. 😱 😱 😱 😱

wachovia canceled the card and put the money back in my account and will be sending me an afidavit to sign in the mail. i get my new card in a few days.

guys watch out, apparantly they used an actual card and since i have mine right in front of me right now they must have cloned it somewhere. the wachovia person told me they go to gas stations to test the cards to see if they work and that they may not have actually spent any money there but when that charge posts they will delete it from my account.

now i have to make sure all my other accounts are fine. wtf... wtf... wtf

they said there's been a spike in credit card fraud in florida lately

Those octogenarians! Always finding a way to get in trouble.

But seriously...that is great that Wachovia handled it so well....but I am sorry it happened A-man.

I get spam all the time. Most of it is pretty obviously spam. But then I got an email from the IRS to my school account, and I was almost fooled, until I realized that I hadn't GIVEN the IRS my school account....

Glad they caught it for you, A-man.

well, actually, i'm not sure...i'd like the laser hair removal, but i think that's gonna be a lot more than $150. i'm not doing anything invasive. a facial might be nice too. i have a free consultation this weekend, so we'll see what i can afford 🙂
 
i slept for so long and then had to do errands... it was nuts... i kept feeling like i was going to collapse from the pain
