Jensen Ackles Thunk Thread

Darn! I forgot to PM my entry to you Coptor. My Jurassic LARP sig. Shucks!

well, RiG, cardioversion is not nice but it's effective. My mother didn't feel a thing.

Oh, yeah, I know.

My mother is back home and doing well. No cardioversion needed. She's on a new medication to keep her blood from clotting. She has to be careful she doesn't get hurt, cut herself...she'll bleed a lot more than we would. Specially head wounds.

I reallllly wish I had enough money and resources to go to all the cons. This is from TorCon this past weekend.

I wish the same for me. To be that lucky. Saw this pic on FB...LOVE IT SO MUCH!!!

{{HUGS}} RiG. Hope your mom is feeling better. Not much is worse than realizing your parents are mortal.

Thank you. Yes, she is feeling better and is back home. And, yes, nothing worse than realizing that.

i can't even afford to go to the one in my own back yard... srsly... what's the point of living so close to Dragon*Con if i can't afford to attend atleast once....

I know, right? Last year there were two cons near me, each was in a neighboring state - really not a long drive at all.

Hello gang, I'm sorry for my absence. My grandma passed away and its been a really rough time since then. Hoping things get back to a sort of normal this week.
Thanks for your thoughts and prayers through twitter and fb. Love you all.

RiG, hope your mom is on to a speedy recovery.

I didn't see the new episode...my brothers and I are working through season 8, since they haven't seen it. We were expecting to be done by the 8th...but things happened. Hopefully soon though. We are on ep 14.

[Whytewytch]

Thank you. Yes, she is feeling better and is back home. And, yes, nothing worse than realizing that.

The only thing I could think of that could be worse--something happening to your kids. Glad mom is doing better. Love the pics!

{{HUGS}} Grace. Seems lots of those are needed this week.

if only... it only takes me 20mins to drive to the Sheraton Hotel where registration is, and that's only b/c of traffic once i get off the motorway....

Yeah, I noticed. But there are amazing entries.

Some form of warfarin. My parents are on it and they have a PhD on controlling the dosage.

You guys are truly lucky. There is nothing like that on these parts. The nearest would be Spain and that would be a 400 km plus drive.

Those are gorgeous.

I didn't know about that Grace. I'm so sorry. I lost my grandma many years ago and it still hurts. My condolences.

Grace - hugs and condolences on your loss.

Hey guys just a reminder about the challenge you are only supposed to use the 5 pics listed, nothing else. I love the stuff you have made, but the challenge is to only use those 5. Thanks!

Hey, it's what we do. Gad to see you here.

RiG, hope your mom is on to a speedy recovery.

Thank you. She's doing well.

There's plenty of time to see it... You just get to it when you get to it. And remember, good things come to those who wait.

The only thing I could think of that could be worse--something happening to your kids. Glad mom is doing better. Love the pics!

Yes, that could be worse...if you had kids. I have a nephew and nieces and I don;t know what I'd so if something happened to one of them.

if only... it only takes me 20mins to drive to the Sheraton Hotel where registration is, and that's only b/c of traffic once i get off the motorway....

Wow!

Yeah, I noticed. But there are amazing entries.

Yes, there are. I feel like an asshat for forgetting to say that earlier. I meant to!

Some form of warfarin. My parents are on it and they have a PhD on controlling the dosage.

She is on Xarelto...I've seen the ads on tv for it.

You guys are truly lucky. There is nothing like that on these parts. The nearest would be Spain and that would be a 400 km plus drive.

Just because they are close doesn't mean we can go to them. Money is kind of an issue for me in that I don't have anywhere in the neighborhood of enough to afford tickets...for all the events you need tickets for including admission.

Those are gorgeous.

Trying to get them as my phone's wp. We'll see if it works. Might not.

And there's that as well. Distance means hotel plus travel money on top of admission and events... As for money, google search the minimum wage for Portugal and the average wage ( which will be near the minimum), convert to dollars and then we'll talk. I once discussed my wage with an american friend and he said that's not bad. Then i said: it's my monthly wage, it's not weekly. And there was a long silence from the other side...

It's not that you guys are swimming in money, that's not what I am saying: it's such different levels of living we can not compare.

Spoiler:

A lot is relative, too. Where we are moving to has a rather high median household income; however, everything else (especially home buying) is much more expensive. Where we are now is cheaper, but the wages are lower, too. Not that we're super-rich or super-poor--we're certainly doing better than in the old days when I would get "carried away" and want a bag of store-bought cookies, then get embarrassed at check-out because I had to put them back because I couldn't afford them. It's just that it is all relative, and some people are so broke they can't pay attention, which sucks. Been there, done that--couldn't afford the t-shirt. Where we're moving to, there will be cons less than an hour away; doesn't mean I'll be able to afford them or will even want to have them qualify as my only "vacation" that year (assuming we can afford to get a vacation).

Just Googled the minimum wage and yeah, sounds about where we were at one point in our lives. Don't know how we paid rent. We ate because our parents sent us care boxes and we were able to get on a government program that provided the basics--milk, cheese, cereal, and we bought day-old bread for half price. Overall cost of living does look to suck pretty badly there, though, JW.

We do have a bright side: we still have a national health system, slow, with many issues but if you get sick, you may get treatment without worrying about insurance. They're trying to change that, though.

Yeah, I'm sure you've heard about the fiasco here with trying to get national insurance. I will not comment further, lest this become a political discussion.

Help me doctor! I need mouth-to-mouth!

I heard of it, and no, no comment. I've seen people unfriend each other on FB over it. I don't need that.
