I've used this address for years. It's what I use. I'm stuck in my ways. That and I HATE MSN and Yahoo mail services. they don't care abouttheir users at all.

Nope. I think they actually sell out the email accounts to spammers.... I mean, c'mon... how can they know when you start an account if they don't have "insiders" to send them email addys?

At least, with aohell, it'll weed out alotta spam mail into my spam folder for me to delete it... Downside is that unknown mail that I get from signup stuff for message boards and such that I *need* end up in there...

I may have an account with yahoo but have never activated the freebie email that goes with it.

A friend of mine once pointed out that for every hour of conversation, there's five minutes of lull.

We tend to call it the "17 minute lull".

After you weed thru the "applicants"?

Only those I deem worthy are given the secret gmail addie....or something like that.

I need to lose a great deal of weight. In the last 15 years I've put on a horrible amount of poundage. A friend and I were going to start walking in January, then I was in my accident. I'm only just now able to walk without a cane, but I still can't support my weight on the leg for a long period of time, so walking for exercise is still a few weeks away.

That's good that you're able to walk without a cane. My friend can when he's not hurting so bad from his back and knees... and the humid NC heat messes him up something fierce. He lived for 6 months out in Phoenix one time and probably preferred the dry heat to the humid heat here... but then any heat, from what he told me, was very BAD for him. His lack of exercise, except for walks around town at 3AM, made him gain alot of weight. Same with me. I don't really exercise other than lifting stuff and moving around at work.

You should walk as much as your leg can stand, rest and then go for more. No need to push it and end up regressing in your recovery.

And then I'd have to kick another Talwin addiction. Ugh.

I take it that's a medication you had to take...

 

[DungeonmasterCal]

I take it that's a medication you had to take...

It's a very potent painkiller that I came to like taking for the sake of taking it... and when I realized that I kicked it cold turkey. I had some pretty bad withdrawal symptoms for about a week (typical of opiate drugs). I still crave it sometimes. Do a Google for it. It's some heavy stuff.

I've taken Codiene one time and it kinda threw me for a loop with my heartrate.

My friend with the bad back and knees from the military takes Vicatin for some part of his pain. It doesn't touch it that much... And he also uses a Tinge Unit to neutralize the pain enough for the pain medication to actually work. And then, when it's really bad, he takes something that "throws him for a major loop" (don't know what it is...)

And "woof!". Powerful stuff indeed!

I'm back on Vicodin now, which I can manage and control myself over better than with Talwin. They took me off Vicodin for Talwin because I'd taken the Vicodin so long it was having no effect on me anymore. It's working again so far, but I rarely have to take it now. Vicodin (hydrocodone) contains codeine, and I can take it with little side effect, except for some itchiness. Oxycodone, on the other hand, breaks me out all over. Eww.

Headin' home. Have a hivey good time, ya'll!
