...yeah, hospital visits are not usually high on my list of enjoyable experiences but still a necessity at times. I'm with Legacy Emmanuel here (one of those quasi religious sounding corporate ones) through Medicare, but they are pretty decent. Took great care of me when I had my fall several years ago..
I think I've heard of that place... Saint Brigid's Convent of the Holy Baguettes and Chowder...?
Saint Brigid is the patron Saint of dairymaids, cattle, midwives (or cattle midwives... not sure which), Irish nuns, newborn babies and delicious bread.
I always used to think Brigid was short for Brigette, but apparently she was named after a Celtic goddess who is associated with lots of legends and folklore.
I don't honestly know if the Convent of the Holy Baguettes and Chowder really exists, but I wouldn't be surprised if I made it up but it's coincidentally real too... there are a lot of unique establishments, in Europe and tons of Saints... there are like patron saints for everything... for instance, Saint Columbanus is the patron Saint of motorcyclists... like how many motorcycles were there in 540 AD?... Then there is Saint Colmán, who among other things is the patron Saint of horned cattle... which is pretty specific... like if your cow goes missing and it's a hornless variety, and you pray to him, will he be like "nope, no horns, my hands are tied, can't help you on this one"...
And there are saints for practically every name... even mine... yup, there's a Saint Victor... apparently he was a Roman soldier who converted and refused the emperor's order to worship Jupiter... that didn't turn out well for him because Roman emperors were really sensitive about that sort of thing... but eventually he became the patron saint of among other things "invoking against lightning"... which I think would have been cooler if it had been "invoking lightning"... I'd have been happy with a flamethrower patronage, but being able to invoke lightning is hella cool.
But anyway, don't be terrified of that hospital, it's hardly haunted and it has a very good reputation... I'm no fan of being in a hospital, but if you let the place worry you, it'll effect your healing... just trust that they are trying to help you and focus on getting well... and like they say "if you can't get well, get revenge"... no... that's a terrible saying... how about "get well or get lost"... no, that's actually worse... I really want a saying with "get well" in it, but I can't come up with one... look, just ignore all that and focus on getting better.
While you are there distract yourself, maybe bring headphones and listen to calming music... perhaps watch video tutorials on your phone, about various 3D subjects you've been meaning to look into... That always puts me to sleep and sleep is good for the healing process... or bring a straw and a bag full of dried peas and pretend to be sleeping... you can shoot the peas at people passing by in the hall... that's a lot more fun than it sounds initially... the trick is to be convincing that you are deep asleep and weren't the one who shot peas at them... remember to aim for the butts... you don't want to hit someone in the eye, because most likely they'll see you do it and the nurses will take your straw and peas away... you could always flick lime jello at people with a spoon if that happens, but that's less covert and it makes the floors sticky.
Well... I'll think of more fun things you can do while in the hospital if you want... but till then, take care and good luck.
Keep us informed of your progress.
Taking a break from packing to check on my daz peeps.
On other hand, didn't someone make 3D peeps once?
That's why I'm a big advocate of putting wheels on everything... this way if you have to move, you can just be like "screw this, I'm outta here" and link everything together in one big caravan of furniture... it sucks when you go downhill, especially when the sofa passes you and goes flying through an intersection or red light, but as long as nobody knows where it came from, you'll be fine.
...hmm I think there was a Monty Python skit about runaway furniture.
I got an email about an offer but by time I saw the email, the offer was gone.
I feel like I have two goldfish wanting to come after me so they can get fed. Being goldfish, they must stay in the aquarium but they still want to eat some fish food.
There was a "Mr. Bean" episode where there was a runaway car with furniture on top.
Hi!
Yes, it was over at RDNA. It was actually chocolate covered marshmallow animals. And I made Peeps for the chicks and the bunnies, a freebie over at my site.
Dana
In miniature making, in the very VERY olden days, there used to be an UK service 'Peeps by post', for ordering filigrees, lace borders, mini paper flowers and suchlike. They might even have a website somewhere still. Never saw any actual peeps on offer though ...
Edit: No, it's gone now, how sad. It used to be so cute and 90s like. And all these lovely filigrees!
The car wasn't a run away, Mr. Bean was 'driving' it via strings and a stick. The Mythbusters tried to recreate several of his shenanigans.
I just tried to...
3D DAZ Peeps... I'm not sure which ones represent who, but they are terribly deformed... I tried to make them from memory, but apparently my memory ain't that good...
Edited to add... DanaTA's Peeps look way better... plus there are rabbits.
Edited Again To Add... Mine are Dollar Store (Not even Dollar Tree, some shady "99¢ And Above" store)knockoffs... those really shady knockoffs that look like they didn't even try to get it right... They'd probably be called "Poops" or something cheesy like that and have some really badly translated saying on the box, like "Super fun Aster Time Martian Treat makes all smile children have happy face"... and they'd be sticky and hard as a rock and smell like new tires and the eyes would be made of wooden beads for some reason.
Until his stick slipped off the brake pedal and got wedged under it as he was going down hill. Here's the YouTube clip.
...
i should google rosemary and thyme after i finish shopping on this website.
...I take it you already have the parsley and sage.
And we could all use a "bridge over troubled water".
I failed and it has marred me for the rest of eternity. I failed too many times to ever be forgiven. I try to do the right thing but it never turns out right anymore it seems.
Nope... I refuse to believe that... Unless you are some omnipotent being, crap happens and it's not destiny or unavoidable... don't let failure bring you down... learn from it and keep moving forward... that's all we can do.
my issue is that some tend to smear my nose in all the crap I've done and say it is all my fault and I can't blame anyone but myself. I take the full blame and it isn't good enough for them. Not sure why.
also it is figuratively speaking. They don't take real crap of mine and smear it all over my face. I just feel like they did but without the dirty face.
...+1.
..so we could walk off "to look for America".
I got you... I've known people like that. It doesn't matter what you do to fix a situation, make amends or take responsibility, they are stuck on that one moment when the thing occurred and there is nothing beyond that... I know someone who still goes on about a stupid misunderstanding a friend was involved in that was inconsequential and resolved quickly... FORTY FIVE fickin' years ago... like let that shnit go already.
With some people you can be right a hundred times, but the one time you are wrong negates all the right things... or there are those individuals whom you can help over and over, be there when they need you, but the one time you aren't there for them, everything else is meaningless and there is no way to ever fix it.
With folks like that, I've seen it's often a case of them being aware of how much they screw up and they need to have someone to blame or to project their failures onto to vindicate themselves... they can't accept responsibility, so they desperately need a scapegoat to blame everything on, or to constantly tear down to distract themselves from what a craptastic person they are.
And with some people, it's just what they learned from others or was done to them, because too many people live "monkey see, monkey do" and can't cut anyone else slack by not doing what was done to them and helping to perpetrate a cycle.
Its hard, but when you know you've done your best, it wasn't your fault or you've made amends or at least tried to fix the situation... that you keep in mind that it's all on them... you have to look at that person as being so small and petty it's not worth your time to feed their psychosis by giving them what they need and letting their crappy behavior bring you down... It's not a universal rule, but in most cases once you learn someone is like that, not giving them the satisfaction of being bothered by their theatrics and drama robs them of what they sought from that confrontation or provocation.
Regardless of whether it douses their fuse or not, the important thing is you know you acted in good faith and if they can't accept that, you aren't going to play along and nothing they say should matter to you.
I know it's hard, but you can't let them get you down... you live your life for you, you be satisfied with you... let them wallow in their own crapulence and relive life's insults over and over if they want, that's their choice...
But you live for you, not them.
One of my "Everybody needs a hobby" sayings is "Everybody needs a hobby, and if yours is being a buttnugget, then I salute you, but I've got my own hobbies and that's not one of them".
That sounds better when I'm glaring at someone in a half menacing/half apathetic manner and saying that in a deep grumbly tone, but I suppose it works in print too... mostly... maybe not... I have scary expressive eyebrows, maybe they help drive that home... I dunno...
Whatever the case of their malfunction, don't let them break you down.
Be happy with you.
i've heard of sage but I don't know anything about it. I learned that rosemary is a bush that has flowers. Some people use roemary bushes in landscaping. mok, i'm gonna read about sage now.
I got basil in my pot outside. I hope I don't forget them when I move.
That's it! Especially the teeth. He's probably got some spikes and, red/demonic eyes.
We don't have toenail fungus adverts with mascots. The only mascot that I know of is a koala bear that steals toilet roll.
My stomach problems kicked in when I was in my 20s. It started with acid reflux, then a few years later the gastritis appeared. The latter happened after several "meat-based" sandwiches on one December 23rd. Then I was ill over that Christmas/New year. In the New Year I was diagnosed with Gastritis + bad stomach infection.
Everything is okay in moderation. So I'm back to drinking the "blue-labelled cola" (500ml bottle once a day). And eating small amounts of chicken (which wasn't possible). I can't drink coffee, and milk can be a little "dodgy". There's other stuff that I can't eat/drink, but I always forget what they are (until I consume them).
But I'm pretty confident in saying that Anxiety and stress are probably the biggest causes/factors in my episodes of gastritis, too.
Complaint: I'm so tired, again.
I'm very uninspired.
dForce is doing my head in. Nothing drapes as it should. I've got to use the smoothing modifier, and/or collision modifier. But, even then, I still don't get good results.
I've also removed the dForce modifier that comes with the clothing, and then (re)applied the Dynamic Surface modifier. But then the simulation takes hours to complete.
High resolution... How high? Fudge it! I'm not paying more than £40.
Non-Complaint: At least I got the controller set up. I've just got three more games to map.
Ooh, the store gets an update today. I wonder if anything in my wishlist is on sale...
I'm just glad we Built this City on Rock and Roll.
And we could listen for the "Sound of Silence"
I don't feel like going outside to water my basil tonight. I'm afraid I'll get wet from the rain. At least I don't have to water the lawn in the rain.
about stomach problems: I experience weid gas at night when i lay down to sleep. Strange gurgling noise. Sometimes gas anti acid helps, sometimes not. Can't afford to see a specialist now. ok, I'm gonna look at a competitor's website now.
