I admit it, I'm an addict. I'm such an addict, that I'm not going to let the fact that 5 hours are going down the drain, due to a corrupt profile, and restart my Dire Grove game. Somehow the computer survived the death threat of breakage if it didn't restore my name. Oh well, guess there is always another profile to be made.

These games are worth the price, imo.



Wow, 1 mil????? Jeepers Creepers and all that googly moogly!

I don't think I have FM, but am wondering if I'm developing symptoms, which is why I'm curious about onset. If so, maybe some dietary and other changes can prevent worsening. Some of you have given me a lot to think about (aspartame, caffeine, etc.)


Thanks for listening even though what I'm dealing with pales in comparison to what you all have to deal with. Much to you all!

Without going into full on history, I was diagnosed shortly after giving birth to my second child. During pregnancy, I couldn't walk. I could not move my legs without crying, couldn't bend, couldn't do much of anything, unless I was wheeled around. Took many appointments, with all kinds of doctors and physical therapists, until I was diagnosed with Fibro. I'm only 33, my youngest will be 10 next week.

On that same note the it looks like (hard to see) it says "(Whoever?) is ____, She is good!"?

Edit: After looking at the new video it doesn't look like "good"... it looks like "read" but that doesn't make any sense...


The legend is true (real?). She is here!


I thought the note read:

If you find this note please help us!


The rest I couldn't read yet. Will try my program a bit later when I have more time.

We buy store brand of just about everything but laundry detergent and fabric softener, as I'm allergic to most of the brands, named or not. Most of the generic brands are made by the same named brand company, just at a cheaper price.

Same here, Selina, except with Figment. I love that little purple dragon!


Though, something I'm still kicking myself for (and trying to rectify) is that before I knew anything about pin trading I bought a pin at a Disney hotel that I happened to like. I shrugged off the suggestion to buy the other pin in the set because I didn't particularly care for it. Six months later I find out they were actually kinda special and the 2 LE pins were only available for a short time at that one hotel. Oops!


I definitely know that feeling. Still kick myself over some of the pins I could of had.

My most limited/special edition pin is the set they included on 1 of the lanyards they were giving away during one of their celebrations. They gave lanyards to everyone that entered the parks and out of those lanyards, only 1 had the 2 pin set. (This was an each day event for a certain amount of time) I have 2 sets of those pins. I know I have some, still new in package, from a convention that was there. Those pins were made specifically for that convention and were hard to get.


Some people do some of the weirdest things ever, like split a collection set (a set of pins sold as a set) and trade them away. They are worth more together than separated. I'm still working on getting those back together.

Ellen Griswold: Clark, let's just skip the house of mud. I think Dodge City was enough fun for one day. Besides, Catherine and Eddie are expecting us.
Clark: It's living history Ellen. But if you'd rather see your cousins. Personally I'd rather see a pile of mud than Eddie.

I have about as many as bootskat, somewhere around 1200, lost count ages ago. Mine are mostly Cast Member pins and Limited Editions. I do have a few sets of the extremely limited editions and E-ticket pins. Even some from certain conventions that were held at Disney.

I am an avid Disney Pin Trader. I have 2 pin bags full. I don't get to go and trade very often, so I do most of mine over the internet and buy the ones I want from other sites. The ones that I love and can't get anywhere, I beg my sister for. It's nice having a cast member in the family.

I'm allergic to all medications except tylenol. So I take that to get the edge off the pain, if it helps at all.

It's mostly an elimination process, but my rheumetologist (sp?) provided the diagnosis when I went to him to see if my arthritis decided to get worse.

a common condition characterized by long-term, body-wide pain and tender points in joints, muscles, tendons, and other soft tissues. Fibromyalgia has also been linked to fatigue, morning stiffness, sleep problems, headaches, numbness in hands and feet, depression, and anxiety. Other things can go with it also, like Restless Leg Syndrome, Irritable Bowel Syndrome, etc.

ETA: mine also affects my asthma and memory. Often wake up in a "fibro fog", kind of like being hung over, unable to recognize where I am or what I'm doing or even general facts like my birthday. Catch me in a foggy state and I couldn't tell you my name.
