jewel21 June 3, 2016 Share June 3, 2016 One of the girls who worked at the animal hospital had a pet raccoon. He lived with them and would waddle down the stairs, open the freezer, and eat the ice cream. She also would help to feed abandoned baby raccoons. She brought one in at work once, and I was able to pet it. Cute little thing. But it was purring and as soon as I went to pet it, it stopped. Guess she didn't like me.

My computer keeps bugging me about it and now has informed me it will install later tonight. Someone told me awhile back not to because it apparently sucked. Thoughts, opinions? I'm currently running Windows 7. Hi - I'm not dead. That trick - installing without your permission is being done to everyone I know. There is an option to return to your previous Windows 7 after the installation, but I'm not sure where it is. So far I have managed to outrun them - my son is very good with computers. He says Windows 10 has the ability to save everything you type, private messages on Facebook, emails, details on payments, orders on e-bay or Amazon, conversations with your bank, comments you make on any open forum (oops! - that's us) if you enable a certain function on your keyboard. There are ways to disable it, but a regular person like me would never figure it out. It's like the Google history thing, if you log in to google and go to your history, you can see every search you have ever made on Google. That's too much "Big Brother" for me. It seems that everything around us includes spy wear of some kind and it pisses me off. I'm not running a meth lab or anything, but I prefer my privacy. Now I hear that the newer TV's and our cell phones are recording everything we say and I really resent that. After it installs, just check the information it gives you and it should give you an option to un-install and return to Windows 7, which is the best one, in my opinion. I am still running it with no problems. I miss all you guys and my vodka - my life is complicated right now and I'm not even reading. I'm in this thread looking for something Snap mentioned, but I don't think I'll ever be able to catch up. I have between 20 and 30 un-watched and un-FF'd episodes on my recorder and will have to delete soon. I never learned how to navigate the new system here and I hate it. I have been able to keep up with my private messages and finally figured out how to post, but I am not having fun, so I am not on the board. Keep up the snark - I shall return eventually.

So I got a call today to explain Monday's tit needling, which has sent me into one of my anxiety/abject terror spirals. I don't care about the procedure too much (of course no one wants a needle in the honeydews, but that's how it goes), but I keep imagining the phone call a few days later to tell me the pathologists found something horrible and invasive and aggressive. To be blunt, I've had some nip issues where they found the round thing and my classes at the Google School of Medicine show me only bad things. Yes, I realize I'm only tormenting myself.

peacheslatour June 10, 2016 Share June 10, 2016 Oh dear god, don't google this shit! You'll drive yourself crazy. Having been through it, all I can say is there's a 99.9% chance that it's nothing and even if it is something, there are a million things it can besides cancer. What's is your family history? That is the main predictor. If your mother or aunts have been through it, talk to them, talk to your cousins and sisters. Maybe you can ask your primary doctor for something to help you relax. I shared my fears with my doc and she told me to up my blood pressure meds.
