Depends on what the "or something" might be.

i am working on an article and one of my sources is something is a study i remember reading in "american minds" that showed what students remembered from lectures (a.k.a. nearly nothing). the article had a link, except that i never actually saved it at the time, and now its in a library on the other side of the ocean, and so far i can't find the article or the study.

there's also a study about how when it comes to getting jobs where you study is a lot more important then what you studies... which again i can't find.

google and google scholar have failed me.

My Nissan Murano power steering belt and bearing has finally gone kapput!!

Its getting fixed next weekend by my nephew when we go to Brissie for Addison's birthday, I was hoping it would last but it will be out of action until then...its a heavy mo fo when the PS isnt working

It's easier to steer if you go real fast. ;)

My arm.

I scratched it in my sleep and I had a jagged nail. Of course I didn't know any of this until I woke up and my arm hurt and it looked like I'd had an arm wrestling contest with a grizzly.

So the scratches brought on the angioedema which means my arm is swollen, hot to the touch, abraded, and feeling like it's going to pop like a ball park frank.

Yeesh. I slathered antiobiotic cream all over it and took a benadryl.

better get checked for Rabies ! ')

WOW. damn.

hilarious.

CHAMPING!

Ooh Infi! As in the other thread, that is nasty.
Of interest to me though is that I might have angioedema!

Dunno, but looking for somethig to explain every time I break the skin I get swelling and itching. Cuts from sticks, Diz, scissors etc. Ouch. Then puffy and itchy like buggery. Goes down in about an hour.

Today, my irritants:
I checked the menu for school lunch today. I can't afford it every day so I pick and choose.
Chicken burger, cheese and tomato pizza, veggie pasta bake.
I was up mostly for the pasta bake, but knew I could decide at the counter.

NOPE.
Sausage, mash and mixed sweetcorn and broccoli (veggie sausages available).
WTF?!
Where is the choice?
Where is the ability to select?
Apart from that they have an odd kind of sausage that looks boiled not grilled. And it comes in a greasy gravy. I would think some childer went home after only having a few mouthfuls.

In future I will take non-perishable food (tin of soup etc) so I can reject the hot lunch if I want to. I do resent spending £2.40 on it though.

FTR our food is provided by another school and only served here. This is the first time something like this has happened, so something had obviously gone badly wrong in the kitchens of the other school. Doesn't stop me resenting it though :)

The other is that I can't find a specialist program for working through social stories.
It was supposed to be on the system. It's not.
A copy of the CD was supposed to be in the Topic Room. It's not.
Other programs supposed to be in the Topic Room are in fact in another place. I found them. This CD is not with them.

There are about 30 children in the whole school that this might be useful for - in varying degrees. One of them is Tiger, to the extent that he was in mind when it was purchased. It's not going to do him any good where it is.
I can't say more, but it's difficult to escalate. Also there is no-one I can ask to find it for me as no-one presently in school will know any more than I do and I have reached a dead end. So it just has to be a frustration for now.

At least it's not one which makes me physically itch though.

Yes, sounds about right. Its very much like hives only it affects a deeper skin layer. Anything will bring on an attack. For example, if I wear a pair of shoes that I've worn many times before but haven't worn in a while they might rub, say, the top of a foot and later I'm itching, the skin is swelling like a ball park frank, and it is hot to the touch. I imagine it feels like fire ants biting. I've been rendered almost unable to walk. It usually affects extremities (my ear has swollen shut on occasion.) There is a version called Hereditary Angioedema that can be dangerous: closing off your airways. I don't do that!

Oh, and it typically develops in early 20s. I was in college when it started.

I had to tell mammo lady that I wasn't diseased and had scratched my arm in my sleep. I told my mom I got a kitten. :lol:

so i am finding out a noticeable annoyance now that i am divorced -

even though you have worked your way through for seducing someone and she you, even though she found out what you like and you what she likes, and you both know what make you jump on each other...


she's not there when your horny anymore.
