Happenstance Posted October 18, 2011 Posted October 18, 2011 Urgh, this cold is kicking the crap out of me.
EEVILMURRAY Posted October 18, 2011 Posted October 18, 2011 Urgh, this cold is kicking the crap out of me. I feel that. I'm tempted to wear my long coat, but I can see the sun is shining and I'll get a right sweat on whilst on my way to work... May have to use a substitute shirt again.
Murr Posted October 18, 2011 Posted October 18, 2011 Had to take my kitten Millie to the vet this morning her back legs appear to be very weak, and she sort of scuttles along the floor rather than walking. And she can't jump on the sofa or bed anymore Vet's have given her anti-inflammatory drops for her food for 7 days, and have noticed it appears to be one leg in particular that is causing distress. hopefully the drops help and she'll be fine at her checkup next week. if not they want to x-ray her and who knows what then. but this has fallen at a very awkward time as i've got my holiday to Mauritius on the 29th October. so any medical attention she may need will be done while I'm meant to be abroad. fingers crossed she's fine with these drops, and back to her self on her checkup next week.
LegoMan1031 Posted October 18, 2011 Posted October 18, 2011 @Murr Hope Millie will be ok. Not on the scale of the above or anything but my only 'bad' thing is that i'm ill and I normally don't get ill very often...
Sheikah Posted October 18, 2011 Posted October 18, 2011 I've got a bad cold too. It definitely seems to be doing the rounds at the moment.
Raining_again Posted October 18, 2011 Posted October 18, 2011 stupid people on my facebook moaning about this fish pedicure risk that the daily mail has been scaremongering about... "i've got a weak immune system too!! ohnoesgoingtodie!!!" You've fucking no idea what a weak immune system is you dick.... *anger*
Ashley Posted October 18, 2011 Posted October 18, 2011 I want one of those fish pedicure things. </random side fact>
Raining_again Posted October 18, 2011 Posted October 18, 2011 I want one of those fish pedicure things. </random side fact> dailymail says you'll get hiv if you do!!
MoogleViper Posted October 19, 2011 Posted October 19, 2011 dailymail says you'll get hiv if you do!! Well if you're having sex with the fish then you deserve HIV.
EEVILMURRAY Posted October 19, 2011 Posted October 19, 2011 Well if you're having sex with the fish then you deserve HIV. "Son... I lied about the foot penetration thing... I think we should talk about how sex actually works"
Ashley Posted October 19, 2011 Posted October 19, 2011 dailymail says you'll get hiv if you do!! Frankly at times I feel like I could get far worse from the Daily Mail alone.
Raining_again Posted October 19, 2011 Posted October 19, 2011 well if you have broken skin and a weak immune system..... presuming the water/fish have already been infected....it is possible, albeit a minute possibility.. but I just love the way they blow it up to mad chaos then mention the minute possibility at the very end of the article lol
Cube Posted October 19, 2011 Posted October 19, 2011 (edited) Today is the day my internet should be activated. So I decided to set up my Sky Router. They've only gone and sent me a completely dud one - no power lights or anything appearing on it. Looks like my wait for decent internet (and online gaming) has gotten longer. Edit: A quick Google suggests that the power unit/cable that is provided with the router is complete rubbish. I think I have some spare cables at work that are the correct size and voltage so hopefully that will be the solution. Edited October 19, 2011 by Cube

ReZourceman Posted October 21, 2011 Posted October 21, 2011 Sorry to hear that, I hope he recovers swiftly.
Magnus Posted October 21, 2011 Posted October 21, 2011 Sorry to hear that, I hope he recovers swiftly. Quoted for truth.
Zell Posted October 21, 2011 Posted October 21, 2011 Had my final PwC interview today. It went okay, the woman was really nice and friendly and we got on well. Now comes the horrible wait. I hope your dad gets better soon Raining.
S.C.G Posted October 21, 2011 Posted October 21, 2011 I'm sorry to hear that Raining... *mahooosive hugs* I truly hope that your Dad will be ok.
gaggle64 Posted October 21, 2011 Posted October 21, 2011 Dang, that's awful. Hope your Dad is back up and running ASAP. =(
Iun Posted October 22, 2011 Posted October 22, 2011 my dads had a heart attack and is in the hospital for the weekend Woah. If you need anything, let us know.
Ashley Posted October 22, 2011 Posted October 22, 2011 my dads had a heart attack and is in the hospital for the weekend
Raining_again Posted October 22, 2011 Posted October 22, 2011 Thanks everybody He's still in hospital and will be for a while (at least wednesday) but its probably the best thing for him. The exact same thing happened to his father 35ish years ago, was told to go home and given anti indigestion.... then he died of a major heart attack not very long after. We're all mega worried but we know he's got the best chance because it was seen to as early as it could've been. Fortunately things have changed, I mean they didn't even have landline telephones in the time when my grandfather died, which played a huge part in his death. The worst part is my dad is shockingly healthy... he used to be a diver/runner and his heart was so efficient it was 50 at rest... he doesn't eat badly, does have a bit of wine at the weekend, and he does yoga/taichi 3x a day... its just insane. Genetics really can catch up with you... He's only 56 as well. Just feels wrong! He's sitting in his bed/chair looking only slightly uncomfortable, around a cardiac ward full of people that are on their last legs.. Yay kitteh!!!!
