Well another TGIF at the PUB :)

Hopefully my pic will not be wiped off this weeks PUB  so..... it's Friday. I had to stop off at the spa before I came to the Pub. :) not really - but wouldn't that be nice!!!!!

First a congrats to ChitChatNine for becoming our CL on the board!! and to DLA also - she became a CL on another board and will be missed very much here. Hopefully her little flower will check in once in a while too :)

Bummer week here for me... (HOW CAN THAT BE WHEN ON A PAID VACATION) ?? ... but it was. How was everyone's Easter - any "inlaw" stories you want to share? What's spring like where you live right now? it is unbelieveable here in Wisconsin - still snow on the ground!! The record this year has exceeded 100' - Thank Gosh it took 5 months to fall.

I see many new (what do you call them AR--- "handles" ) screen names visiting us lately!! I hope all of you new members are getting the support you need to understand your current situation. Our Pub is designed to get to know and laugh at each other. It is a cyber bar. It may sound a bit goofy - but it has been alot of fun at times when everyone participates. (usually we chicks gang up on the guys a bit and give them a hard time!!!) but they handle it and the come backs are great :)

So --- for the newbie's this week - let's invite them in. Hopefully we will see some great personalities - but we always practice good behavior when we post.

AR is always generous in free drink specials.

Happy TGIF all.

Not sure where the word "toes" came in on my tag words - but toes can be quite a conversation piece!!

Off to pick up my daughter from an evening birthday party .. I'll be back a bit later.

CHEERS and Thanks on the Congrats!

Hey all.   First round is on me in celebration of Cheryl and Dac's rise to greatness on the MedHelp pecking-order.   (Chicken joke - pecking order, get it?)   Ahhh, never mind.

Not the best of weeks so I'll just be parked over in the corner mumbling incoherently.  I'm not drunk - just a thyroid patient.

I'm having an entire pitcher of cyber-margaritas over here with a straw, please.  Whatever everyone wants is on me - then the rest will be picked up by the guys (see what happens when you come late to the pub guys??).

Off to my booth to stare at everyone else, mumble to myself, and show my chicken teeth.

Love ya all my thyroid misfits.  :-)))

Someone else will be tending bar tonight.

I'm worn out, and I am going to sit and drink white Zin.

News of the week...Nanny's in the hospital, since Tuesday. She's out now, but in extended care in another hospital about 15 miles away. For a couple of weeks. It's just wrong to say this, but it's like vacation time around here.

I've been busy making myself sick all week trying to do too much every other day. Things had better change. I can't sit at home the rest of my life.

Don't even have the energy to sit at the table and chat. I'll be in the corner. You guys can shoot tin foil spit wads at me with straws.

Nice pic there, Stella. I see you got the "medical pics only" angle covered by including a theraputic massage. LOL!!!

Wow - that's two of us retreating to the corners.  Only two corners left kids - better hurry and claim one  (before I tell you all that it's a round room)   He, he, he

Don't worry AR, we have all figured out how to make our own drinks by now and I'm too tired to shoot tinfoil spit wads in your direction.

Stella, when you're done would you send that cat masseuse my way - I've got a headache that's a killer (but it has to trim its claws first)

I'm one of the new screen names Stella5349 mentions. Thanks for the invitation to the Pub. TGIF at the Pub looks like a lot of fun. I wish I could belly-up to the bar and have a drink but I'm really tired and recovering from my surgery this past Tuesday. I would probably fall off my stool, hit my head and knock myself out.

Before I leave to lie down, I raise my glass of OJ to toast all of you and to thank everyone for their support, thoughts and prayers. Have a drink on me and hopefully I can join in next Friday.

Utah I may join you in that corner........ I have the "people" talking in my head this week too :) So far nobody's fighting in there - just talking - maybe a drink will calm them down.

Never thought of the medical pic AR -- but good...... I just find that pic is what would of really been wonderful to do this week for me. .. not parked on the couch waiting for those quack heads to call..... and never did.

GRRRRRRRRRR   pour a big one Utah.

Actually falling off our stools, hitting our heads, and knocking ourselves out is about the only rest that we get.   Welcome

That's a given here at the PUB If you aren't falling off your chair you can't play at the PUB. and knocking yourself out is the highlight of the evening.

You'll fit right in. :) Peaceful rest sweetie... you need it. :)

Utah:  Pecking Order ... I got it 1-2-3 ... I am one S m A r T Chick ya know!  That is really good and I am still laughing.  Then again ... seems I may be the only one in pretty good spirits @ the pub tonight ........

A very WARM WELCOME to CATIE and her recent surgery as she starts her recover .... she says she is drinking OJ and toasting us but we want to know WHAT IS REALLY IN THAT OJ anyway?    

Now, who shall we "hen peck" tonight ...... seems The Car Man is nowhere to be found?  ...  

AR is in the corner ...... (probably on a time-out but he isn't telling us the truth!!!).

Stella, with all your emotional turmoil (or shall I say TINFOIL) you've been under this wee,k I commend you for coming out to the Pub with us!  Remember, Birds of a Feather Stick Together .. Yeah that is us on this community ... thru thick and thin. (you like that one?)

The last time I felt like falling off the chair was when the ENT took that "nasty" probe and looked down my esophagus and for those who have had this little scope .. well, it isn't too much fun and you want to fall off the chair and really fast!!!

NEXT ROUND is on ME .. after all .... it's FRIDAY!

Cheryl

TheCarMan will be along. Save him a table by the door.

That way when he says something that ruffles feathers and he hears SKUUAAAAAK!!! Cluck, cluck, skuaaaak!, he can make a mad dash for the door. LOL!!

A tip for the new people- that jar of beef jerky on the bar? That's actually thyroids. Worse than pickled eggs. Stay clear of it. :^)

I got a corner!!  But I'm sticking my recliner in it, cause I'm just not feeling up to collapsing on the floor.  Glad I got her early.  Keep the music mellow for me tonight and send me something REALLY strong over in my corner.  Oh, yeah, I forget it's serve yourself.  Okay, anybody looking for the good gin, it will be over in my corner with me having a private party.

Could really go for a good strawberry daiquiri, too.  ;-}{  I'll mix that myself as well.  Dang, this night's wearin' me out just typing about it.

Utah, you've had a bad week too so you should beam your recliner or couch into your corner too.

Cheryl feels so good she's going to do the chicken dance later for our entertainment!!  Anybody feel up to joining her?  Nah, thought not.  Sorry, Cheryl, but it's a solo for you.

Where's CarMan tonight?  That wife of his set the place on fire or something?  

Catie, welcome aboard.  Are you sure that's not a screwdriver or a fuzzy navel you got there?  Works better for if you put some alcohol in it.  Just a little chicken humor there.

Oh, and I heard a rumor that there are pickled eggs behind the bar!!  Not a good idea when the chicken club has taken it over for the night.  BAcach!!

Dac,

The pickled eggs .. you and AR alike .. SCARY STUFF .... S

ee what happens when you "fly the coop" on us ............ ESP or something like that must have set in ... which can only mean you think about us alot and miss us, too {{{{ wink wink }}}}}}}

Now, on the Chicken Dance .. afraid I will take a raincheck ... I am actually going to call it an early night and sign off .... but I'll be back early tomorrow to see who has shown up or not shown up for some fun @ the Thyroid Pub.

Oh - we're surfing the brain waves???   Talk about a wipe out!   :-)


Dac - I see you over there.  Make you a deal . . . I'll scoot my beanbag over, you slide your recliner over, and we'll meet in the middle - behind the bar!    

Now that doesn't mean that Dac and I are serving *anyone* drinks - you'll just have to climb over us to get your own.   Oh, and someone take this stupid jar of thyroids off the counter.  I swear kids - if we're going to bring faulty organs in again to show them off I've got a gallbladder, two ovaries, and most of my brain to add.  Braaaaackkkkk!

(ouch, that hurt my tinfoil covered headache - Dac, can you grab me an ice cube??)

Hey guys!!  I'm in such a fog that I couldn't count to see if there was a corner leftover for me.  Bad week here.  I held on to the prescription for Wellbutrin for a week thinking I could shake it, and broke down and got it filled tonight.  

So.......I'm taking my long island tea and heading for the corner.  I probably won't last long, but just wanted to stop in and say hi to all my buddies!!!

Hey, my corner free'd up because I slid behind the bar with Dac.  You could take mine or you could join us.  

Sorry about your week - that's kind of why Dac and I are mumbling incoherently behind the bar.   AR-10 was in one corner but he's probably passed out by now so you could just push him over if you prefer his space.  :-)

I'm not sure if there is some protocol to join this group, but I left my sister's informal dinner get together early (it's 950pm in Toronto) to see what this pub is all about.  You have all been so kind and generous with your time to me, that I had to drop in and at the very least say THANK YOU!

Hey yall, this PUB thing is pretty neat. Like I told Cheryl today,I don't drink, but I might just start!!!! I think I'll pull me a bar stool over by Dac (found out today,we have something in common) LOL....(inside joke) Anyways, when I was a young chicken(no pun intended) I did drink a few over on Harry Hines Ave. in Dallas. I remember spinning on my bar stool so fast, i got dizzy and fell off backwards. Hey, where are the pickled pig feet,you gotta have a jar of them....Does this Pub have dancing music? Heres some quarters Utah,get that juke-box arocking!!! Let's party till the lights go out!!!! I'll drink to that....another round on me!!!
