My doctor (did I tell you that I love him?) gave me Lorotab for the pain.

I am glad to see that at least you got something good out this experience!

Tonight's "news" reported that American Idol winner, Clay Aiken, is on the cover of People magazine, announcing that he is gay.

I'm not getting out of bed tomorrow. This is really too much.

A fellow who works in our building came down with shingles last week. He was prescribed Valtrex (which I think is supposed to be the herpes drug). Evidently it acts like speed, as he was funnier than hail. He talks fast anyway but he was absolutely hyper. But we felt soooo sorry for him!

...oh, little NoHallie! That is better/worse than anything I can do to myself! Did he give you...STEROIDS?????? Shingles S*ck! Take care and post alot...it will make you feel better...especially if you are on drugs.

If that is true about Valtrex acting like speed, when word spreads, so will the "reported" cases of Herpes.

Sounds like roid rage to me. Runnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn!

Yep. Valtrex. You ever see those bad boys? They're dark blue and about the size of a vienna sausage. It is the herpes drug because shingles/chickenpox are caused by the herpes zoster virus. I just found this out myself today. My doctor was so cute--he explained it to me and said, "This isn't the bad herpes...I mean that kind of herpes...and nobody here or at the pharmacy will think you have that kind of herpes..."

No steroids, thank GAWD. He only gives me those when I'm one step away from being hospitalized. They wreak havoc with my narcolepsy, and he was already fussing at me today about not getting enough sleep. In fact, he thinks that high stress levels from long hours and sleep deprivation are what brought it on.

I'm not happy to hear that Valtrex works like speed...that's all I need right now!

I won't lie to you--it hurts. I'm just hoping that the Valtrex keeps it from spreading. Clothing is painful...I'm not sure I want to be posting nekkid and on drugs!

Dang, I hate to hear that NoHall. I've heard shingles do suck. Feel better soon.

Shingles suck, say goodbye to sheets for a while. It's also a good thing you got cable since even reading is painful everytime you turn a page. Get well soon. Sounds like you need a nice vacation. ;-)

No he's not, it's a publicity stunt. We don't want him anyway. Your side can keep him.

:funn:

"Our" side never had him. How can we keep someone whom we've never had? Isn't that like losing a girlfriend you never had?

With all the talk about Valtrax and speed, I can think only of a few lines from Ron Cliburn's song, "Putty Knife Blues" :

Every crew's got a speed freak
And our boy's name is Bill.
He's really slow, but watch him go,
When he eats his little pill...

swgb...I am saddened by your response. Are you saying CA is a faux gay? How can that be? Is CA a man without a group to hang with?

I believe CA's announcement is an indication he's financially there.

I'm saying he's an annoying twit. I believe Texas has a few Texans they don't want to claim. ;-) In addition to the twit thing I'm not real fond of folks that hide in the closet denying who they are until they need the career boost. That and now I'll have to listen to god awful remixes of his hideous music when I go to a gay bar.

I doubt he's financially stable, he sold that story to People magazine for ca$h. His record sales aren't exactly soaring.

Nope, as bad as they may be, we always take them back. Texans are just like that. Heck, no one else wants them.

I want pictures of you at Crawford with a welcome sign on January 10th.

I am still worried about where they are buying in Dallas! Latest gossip has them down the street from Ross P. Nearby, but not my neighborhood.

You must be some sort of mind reader!


GEORGE W. Bush, soon to be former president of the United States of America, ex-commander in chief of the Armed Forces, prior leader of the free world, is not leaving immortality to go back to the cowflop of Crawford, Texas. Although he might still keep that ranch because after his years in the Oval Office he may be addicted to manure, I know for a 100 percent fact it's not where he permanently plans to hang his signed photos.
In four months Mr. and Mrs. Bush move to a town outside Dallas called Preston Hollow, one of the wealthiest areas in the oil-rich state of Texas. Houses come with horse stables, lake views, mountain views, golf club views. Kiddies, mother is telling you do not cry for Argentina - or Dubya. He's not going from the White House to any cockamamie cramped two-bedroom apartment with hot- and cold-running mortgages. Laura does not beat around the Bushes. She's been to their new home, checked it out, and it's a big house on five acres. Their broker is the Lone Star State's premier Realtor Allie Beth Allman. George and Laura are going top cabin all the way.
So far this is - or was - top secret around Dallas.

...journalists? Preston Hollow is NOT a town outside of Dallas.

Does it have mountain views?
