It all started when I ate at one of my favorite resturants about 3 weeks ago. I got sick to my stomach with nausea, cramps, and diarreah. I thought maybe I had food poisoning, but I dont know if it lasts that long. Now when I get hungry I feel bad. After I eat I feel horrible. My bf thinks its IBS but Im not so sure. The nausea and cramps subside "some" if I take an antacid and drink a couple glasses of water. But I'm trying to drink a lot of water anyway because I think having the diarreah is dehydrating me. I dont make a lot of money and I dont have insurance, so going anywhere expensive isnt really an option. The clinic cant see me for another week. It was so bad this morning it reduced me to tears. I took 2 bites of sandwitch and began hurting again. Im so tired of hurting. Any tips or valid advice will be appreciated.

Can anyone suggest some good websites that I can check out now. Or maybe some books I can look into later, Nothing to in depth. Just want to understand what type of tribes lived where, and some of their traditions.

So I've heard that its good to dress up at night to go out, but not all of us look great in mini-dresses. I have a decent (around size 5 or 7) figure, but I'm getting chunky in the middle unfortunatley. Need help putting together 1 or 2 dressy outfits. Also I'm aware its hot during the day but how hot will it be in March? Do I need tanks & skirts? We'll be walking the strip during the day so I'm looking at wearing seakers (or something equally comfortable) with daytime outfits. I dont wanna be a diva and bring a ton of clothes and bags for only a couple days. The styles I like personally are: steampunk, victorian goth, and punk.Anyone have any suggestions or advice? This is my first trip to Vegas and I want it to be awesome!

I'm not a christian myself. I keep my spirituality & beliefs private, with only a very few people as exceptions. I get really down sometimes when I log on & all anyone can post are scriptures or christian like quotes. I just get really tired of hearing how they think that their God will make everything better. Is there an appropriate way to point out that not all of us feel this way? Or is it even appropriate to point it out?

I want to get rid of the scars that my bad acne leaves behind. I've heard that using lemon juice is good but, that it may dry out the skin to the point of causing more breakouts. I've also heard that using the over the counter versions of Mederma and things like that will work too. But wont they just gunk up my prores and make me breakout then too? So what works to lighten or remove scars that wont cause breakouts?

I have this old hs friend that is being awfully pushy with her Christian ideals toward my younger sister. I haven't been on my FB in a while so while checking things out, I decided to skip over to my sisters page and check her out- say hey- whatever. She used to be very active on her FB but now nothing for like 2 months. Literally like every 4 days or so, my old hs friend is leaving her Bible quotes. There are comments from her saying that she is praying for my sister, and that she hopes that she will get her act together soon and find the Lord. (and btw she's not a bad kid) There is nothing but these types of comments on my sisters page anymore. I think she's abandoned it to get away from it all. Now don't get me wrong here, I'm not bashing Christians or anything. I just don't see why an adult woman needs to badger a teenager repeatedly with Bible quotes.

Does anyone know of an appropriate way for me to address this with her? Let her know that I don't really appreciate her smothering my sister in this manner? Any advice about how to maturely address this situation will be appreciated.

I just moved into a new appartment and the upstairs bathroom is painted this horrible chocolate brown with yellow accents. The bathroom is located in the NE- Career/Knowledge area of the upstairs layout. Blue/black is reccomended but I'm just wondering if that would be too much water energy going on. And if so how & with what element would I counter that? What do you think? Anyone have any tips or advice? Suggestions?

So my name got selected for a random drug test. And yes I had to pee dirty. Yes I'm gonna fail the drug test for weed, & I know it. My question is- Should I tell my boss the truth about it before she gets the results? That way she's not surprised out of the blue? It's really not something that I do very often, and I'm pretty close to her. I might could plead my case & keep my job.

Another thing is they've had another employee test positive for weed and they kept him on. If they talk about firing me should I throw that out there?

My friend had this dream, in which, he had two snakes as friends that he could take anywhere with him. They could hide on each of his arms as tattoos and animate or come to life and remove themselves from him as needed. I want to draw this for him. My style is anime and I'm looking for a pose to draw from. I want a tall lean man with feet shoulder width apart, standing and starring straight ahead. His arms need to be out to his side. Not straight out like a crucifixion, but not low to his sides either. I want to draw the snake tattoos coming to life and slithering off his arms from his hands. I really need a reference to draw this off of cause I'm not very strong in drawing full body anatomy yet. If someone knows of something that could be helpful I would be very grateful. I want to do this as a birthday present and only have about a month and a half to do it!

I'm particularly interested in short male anime hair. Like buzz cuts, crazy curly, or slicked back hair. I can draw long hair no problem, but short hair I have a tough time with. I need some examples to go off of. If anyone knows of a place I can go and look I would really appreciate it a lot!

I had a birthday a few days ago and my good guy friend gave me his gift today. It had a cd, a keyring, some other odds and ends, and also a thimble. I'm a bit confused by the thimble. He said it had something to do with Peter Pan, but I haven't ever seen that movie. If I have I've forgotten it. Can someone please tell me what he meant by giving me a thimble as part of my birthday gift?

I started doing this large and very detailed paint-by-number painting recently. Its of a mountain side, plateau, & 5 horses running. At first it was going well, but as I progressed, I noticed that some of the colors look wrong from the example. The mixtures that they ask you to make dont end up looking like they are supposed to. I'm almost done, I've left the horses for last & I'm affraid that its not going to come out looking very well. It looks awfully abstract and not natural like its supposed to. Can anyone give me any advice on how to fix it? Is there a way I can blend the acrylic paint or go in and re-paint certain things? A little help would be greatly appreciated. I wanted to make this picture for my mom and I'm worried its coming out looking bad.

I just finished reading the War of the Spider Queen series and I'm at a loss. What do I read now? I've already read all of the Drizzt books and the Clerical Quintet. Whats a good book or series to read now?

How exactly do you pronounce the name of Drizzt's panther companion, Guenhwyvar?

I know her nickname is Guen (Gwen), for short, but how do you correctly say the whole name? Me and some friends have been having a friendly disagreement on this and anyone that could clarify would be greatly appreciated!

I want to find some great sci-fi and fantasy pics. Looking for accurate drow pics, elven, and fairys. Fantasy cityscapes or forests. Anything new and interesting. I'm so bored of searching Photobucket and others and always coming up with the same ol pics everyone else has. The artists I am fond of are Luis Royo, Brom, Victoria Frances, and Joseph Michael Linsner. If you have a great site hidden up ur sleve- Please let me in on it. I'm going crazy for want of new pics!

Hoping sometime in may 09 and not over 50 people. Need advice on what to do first. Don't have much of a budget at all so think very cheap when replying. Should I get my dress first? What are some ways to decorate cheaply? Any advice would be helpful. I need to get on a roll here but just dont know where to begin! Help!

I have to take my 8 yr old niece to her eye dr appointment today. I need help. How can I make her calm down and be good during our time there. I can already see her being to loud, running around looking at everything, and not listening to a word I say.

How can I make her be good for the dr too? She needs an eye exam. How can I be sure that she understands that she has to be serious and answer the dr correctly?

Some help please?

I ask because I was thinking of getting a tattoo with a peacock in it and I want to know what that would mean. Like dogs are known for their loyalty. Peacock males strut their feathers for the females. So would that imply that is was conceited? Just curious for answers...
