All right all right ...

Now I'm not allowed to talk about estrogen reducing powder? I mean seriously...how offensive is that? It's not like I'm talking in great detail about liposuction...now that would be nasty. Have you seen that procedure? How in the hell do people MOVE after that? Not to mention that icky fat - seen Fight Club?? Eewwwwww...*shudder* I'm sure they could make more than a few bars of soap off of me. Okay, now I'm grossing myself out.

Remember that childhood game...what's grosser than gross? Estrogen reducing powder wouldn't even show up on the top 100 in that game. Although, it does taste pretty nasty, so it very well could. Did any of you play that game? Well, it wasn't really a game. It was just a bunch of us sitting around bringing up the grossest things possible. I can't even remember some of the "old standards" - do you? Please tell me - my brain is broken today. I think I remember something about cheerleaders and class rings...ew...and underwear sticking to walls...I don't know...it was a very long time ago.

UPDATE
I'm feeling better, mostly. Pain is not nearly as bad, though it still comes and goes. Antibiotic is almost over. Today's the last day. I guess I should call the doc and make a follow-up appt. Joy.

Fun stuff - Kevin and I are going to dinner and a show with the other Kevin Crum and his wife. Yes, that's right, you heard me. There are TWO Kev-heads in the world. Sweet Jesus on a pop tart....they're COUSINS. And in some ways they are so much alike it's scary. The other Kevin's wife, Janet, wait...I can't keep calling him "the other Kevin" - there has to be a better way. Hmmmm...K-2? better. K-2's wife asked me last week if my Kevin was as "funny", and I use this term loosely, as K-2. Oh, yeah, I said...hilarious...apparently they're both good for the insipid one-liners and changing song lyrics to something perverse.

I told Janet about Kev-head's standards...like the fact that you can't say "cantaloupe" around my husband - he can't help himself - he has to say "Can't elope tonight, dad's got the car" - and do you know what K-2 did? He laughed - and laughed - and laughed - and I looked at the pain on Janet's face and realized that we understand each other. I had only known her an hour, but there was an unbreakable bond there. It should be a fun evening. We're having dinner at Ditka's and seeing "The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee" and staying overnight. Good times.

So right now I am listening to Head over Heels by Tears for Fears which is from the 90s not 80s, thanks Rap (I had to sing it to her, well, what I knew of the song so she could right away tell me what it was)...Now I never played the gross game, but check this. Big R cut the meat between the thumb and pointer finger with a saw and THEN cut off the tip of his thumb on the other hand. I change the dressing for him, and you can see the bone and shit...It's pretty gross. He won't go to the Dr. but he can move all fingers and feels everything so he should be good to go...Now I find it hard to believe that there are TWO Kev-Heads out there-Bizzaro World

Head over Heels is from the '90s? Are you sure. Seriously?

Yes, I am sure as I checked the album date when I downloaded it...I KNOW how you feel as I keep running the 80s into the 90s and getting the music and stuff all intermingled

I'm not sure what you read - but on the Tears for Fears website - the discography has that album "Songs from the Big Chair" coming out in '85....that's when all of their popular songs (aside from Sewing the Seeds, a personal fave) came out.

Can't elope tonight, dad's got the car...is hilarious. Why, oh why do I find the original Kev-head so funny? Seriously, I'm still laughing over here. It's like the time I typed "go tit" instead of "got it". Never stops being funny.

then I would have to say my web site information is wrong as they have Songs from the Big Chair as a 90s release--I think I will double check that--but not until my DSL packet gets here-moving up baby, sick of this dial up shit. Go Tit!!!!!
