the deal with putting cold on your forehead, is to get the excess blood drained out of your head and back where it belongs.....so you can further this effect by putting warmth on the back of your neck and shoulders (although never on the chest) at the same time. good luck

Congrats everyone....now I can't help it, my two passions - music and birth - combined in one thread.....so have any of you thought about having a midwife?

Okay....first midwifery rant....this show is so close to my mom's and I really want to go, but I will be in my first placement then and therefore, I will be on call.....and Florida is just not close enough to make it back for a woman in labour....ahhh! Why did I chose this profession?....oh yeah, I love it.

Tonnes of snow up here in Sudbury....but that's no surprise! We have lots of it, but its not taller then me yet. (although thats not saying too much)

I love driving around in this, although I hope its not too bad for the 6 hour drive home for the holidays.

I've got a couple days off before my last exam, and I'm hoping to convince one of my northern friends here to take me out snowshoeing, or skiing, or some other lovely winter fun thing!

Yay snow!

Pesto grilled cheese.....pesto and cheese (or soy cheese, if you're me) done grilled style, and then dipped in tomato sauce....aw yeah

No problemo!

Hope you make it!

I always use ginger for nausea......make tea, add ginger to tonic water for gingerale.....add honey for sweetness.

Also a natural food store will most likely have "quitting smoking" remedies and herbal pills.....I had one friend say they helped him?

You can do it!

I was trying to figure out the neurological pathways and how your nicotinic receptors would be affected by your quitting.....the answer I came up with is tryptothane (sp?). So eat lots of turkey!.....omg....so that's where the quitting cold turkey thing comes from.....damn, I'm not a genius. It has to do with certain neurotransmitters causing vasodilation/constriction causing headaches, blah, blah....I'm such a nerd. (and I could be completely wrong, but it's worth a try)

Another idea is to try hydrotherapy....put a cold cloth on your forehead and something warm on the back of your neck. This just helps to draw the blood out of your head and back down where it belongs. Do this and relax for 10 min. (warning. do not put warm cloth over front of neck = bad)

And of course, drink lots of water....it is so good for cleansing faster!

Good luck.....quitting smoking is the best thing ever (hasn't done much for my weed intake though...lol)

AWWWW!

I'm missing two ex's in one night.....man, I miss Dover......you guys have no idea how homesick I am right now! Anywho.....have some good shows guys (and that's to everyone, not just the ex's).

Okay, so I was totally planning on going.... but then I had to go wtch my cousin get her septum pierced. I don't do well with needles, but I thought I would be strong and hold her hand. So it ends up I fainted and smashed my head on the floor and have a concussion. So I didn't come out. Oh well, after I get back in June, i'll be around all summer.

::

i love jurassic 5! I'm supposed to leave on a raod trip that day, maybe i'll have to leave a day late.

::

I'm watching it too! Sudbury is just that exciting.

Mighty Mighty Bosstones! My first and second concerts.... and I got to hug Dickie Barrett. Ahhh, a 14 yr olds dream.

I want to go. I think I'll buy early tickets because they're cheap and then I have to go..... so my boss has to give me the weekend off.

::

went to check them out and it was awesome.... i haven't seen them since i lived in peterborough. Great to see such a fun full band.

It felt so good! Mine were really long and heavy though, so i was getting headaches from them. Now.... no more headaches makes one happy girl! ::

I miss them once in a while, but I work outside and get dirty and sweaty in the summer, so it's better without them.

The worst part is that you have to re-learn how to dance... I still swing my head around, but it looks funny without the dreads.

Also, people react differently. Dreads tend to attract cool people, but I like it that it's not my looks that are making me meet new cool people.... its my wonderful personality!

Ha Ha....I am not picking my nose! If I was I would make it way more obvious, so its funny. I have a nose ring though, and it looks funny all fuzzy in the pic now. I also don't even really look like that anymore.... I cut my dreads. maybe its time to change the picture, seeing as I'm getting made fun of.

You look like my friend Ben from Toronto... are you him? Doubt it, but its worth a try. ::

Nice picture.....check out mine! I always love green.

I might try to catch them in Guelph on Fri. The bass player is an old friend of mine, and I haven't even made it out to see them before. So I'd better get my ass out there sometime soon. I heard they're super dancable.
