After an $85 million renovation, a guy can do just about anything he likes: golf with his buds, eat steak till it comes out his ears, or even play some Blackjack with "The King."
Weekend Golfers Present ‘play Golf: Between The Ears’
Coeur d’Alene Casino – “Dream Experience – Man”
December 31st, 2011 03:58 PM | by dicky | Golf.
I put something deep in my mouth this weekend that just came out of another girls mouth so I figured that’s how I got Strep throat. It was a very aggressive strain because I went from feeling fine to death bed sick (ulcers in throat, head, join pain and 103 degree fever) I thought I would die before I could get to the doctor the next morning. I went to the doctor and tested positive and got a shot of rocephin and a bottle of penicillin. She did that 5 minute test and it was bright stripes positive in 3 minutes. I did not start feeling better for about 12 hours and within 16 hours the fever broke and 24 hours the yellow green puss balls feel off of my tonsils. What is upsetting me is that just as my fever broke I felt one of the puss balls in my tonsils leak and then my neck glands just under my jaw blew up like golf balls and now my ears hurt and my neck is stiff. Now is this just a last fu from being sick or is the penicillin not killing it and now I have Meningitis? Also, now that I
Also, now that I am “healing up” I have a horrible cough that won’t go away. Is it common to get a cough after? Can taking penicillin give you a cough? I do know that my glands are killing me right now and I don’t know why since It didn’t happen till after the fever broke.
The Mom is the best, she rocks!
Relax. Antibiotics take a couple days to fully kick in- so you actually starting showing some improvement fairly quickly. You can thank the shot of Rocephin for that. The lymph gland swelling is not anything big, you have a known infection, and the lymph system is on alert. The increase in lymph fluid and the increased production of white blood cells to fight it off are the reason those are swollen and tender. You should have 10 days worth of antibiotics, and you need to take each and every tablet. You aren’t going to feel wonderful for a few days yet, possibly not for a full week. And you did not get strep throat that quickly, the incubation time is somewhere between 2-5 days. Anybody who has had strep throat in the past month could be responsible, since you can shed the virus for a full month after you recover- and if it wasn’t treated it’s highly likely you will. You are describing the typical course of illness for strep throat. It is nasty, which is why folks who have it fuss so much about it. The five minute test normally reacts within 2-5 minutes, your reaction time was not any quicker than most. It’s not likely you have an antibiotic resistant type of strep either, or you would not have seen the improvement at all. So just relax here. Keep taking the medicine, drink loads of fluids- until your molars float. Eat what you can get down, and rest. You should continue to improve from here on out. The lymph glands may stay swollen and tender for a few weeks, but that is also normal. They may well go back down as you finish the medication. Just chill, you aren’t dying. You probably do feel like it, but you won’t.
my friend lives in NY. i don’t get to see him a lot. he came to NJ this weekend and him, me, and another girl went to the boardwalk and played mini golf. every minute he would come up from behind me and hug me and he would whisper things in my ear.
he told me he’s been in love with me from the start =]

Love affair with my boss- few months, 5 mths ago. Ended up in bed again on the weekend and now I am back to where I started. He said he hasn’t been flirting all this time. But he has! Is touching my knee with his knee when I go over to ask a question (I move away); tickling my ear while we are playing golf on the wii; picking up a phallic object and saying ‘I bet you’re used to me playing with my thing’ FLIRTING? He stares at me, winks… All that! He finds a spot on the stairs in front of my desk to ‘stretch his calves and perves!!!’ So I hop into his bed after a work outing. He sleeps with me passionately. Tells me he thinks I’m great… best sex of his life, then says ‘gee, I haven’t been flirting. We are in this situation because of you and you alone’. I think he’s ‘gone off’ me. I had a frustrated fight with someone at work the other day. Maybe that woke him up. But am I right? HE WAS FLIRTING!?? I had a great career. He came onto me! Friends 4 YEARS b4. Now I am miserable…
Please! I need more answers! I’m on the brink of serious depression over this. Ever since he did this, I crawl into bed sad and alone. It’s been 6 mths of that… Now this. Back to the start! I haven’t ever been in this situation. All the guys who have liked me wanted proper relationships. I just assumed that would be the case here too! Would he really do this to a friend! A work colleague! Just for the sex? I had no choice in the beginning. Now the choice has been made for me. I can’t have him anymore- ever again. His decision. I really love him!
This’ll be a rather long question, and it’s a two-parter, so grab some food ‘cuz you’ll be here a while. I have read a lot about the ‘pack hierarchy’ in dogs, and how the human must be the ‘pack leader’ to have the dogs behave how the human wants them to behave. However, I’m a pretty laid-back guy, and my dogs are very well-behaved except for the following issues, so I don’t actively pursue or maintain the role of ‘pack leader’ in my house, mainly because I feel I don’t have to (I know I should, I’m just a little too lazy). My two dogs, both Cairn terriers, display converse signs of both dominance and submission.
A) Cassie, my problem child, shows many signs of dominant behavior. She will strain at the leash while on walks, will sit on my lap while I’m watching TV (head tilted upward in dominant position), and will jump on guests when she greets them. That is all obviously signs of dominance, I know. However, she also appears to turn to me when she’s afraid. Couple weekends ago my friend and I were hitting foam golf balls in my backyard, and he shanked one right into Cassie, who yelped (out of alarm, mind you, not pain) and hid between my legs, tail tucked and head down. She will do the same thing during thunderstorms. I’m slightly confused also, because she appears to be subordinate to my other dog which brings me to
B) Coco, my fat slob of a dog. I of course say that with a loving smile, because she is the epitome of a couch potato (she weighs about eight pounds more than the breed standard, roughly 20lbs, despite our walks, and rarely moves otherwise. Cairn Terriers have pricked ears, but because Coco lays on her sides a lot, she has actually bent the cartilage in her ears so that they lay flat like a Collie’s). She, in contrast to my other dog, displays no signs of dominant behavior to me. She walks behind me on walks, is relaxed, respectful, and friendly towards strangers, and is never mouthy or demanding. She also doesn’t solicit attention like Cassie, but will let me pick her up and hold her like a baby while I rub her belly, which she loves (our longest record is roughly 40min, during which she fell asleep while I watched TV). The other night Coco discovered a rabbit’s nest in my backyard, and picked one of the babies out of the nest and brought it straight to me, dropping it in my lap with tail wagging and a placating lick. Needless to say I was surprised by having a rodent land on me at roughly 1 in the morning, but if I’m not mistaken, subordinate dogs occasionally offer gifts to the pack leader in an attempt for placation (that’s just speculation on my part, I really don’t know, I’m just basing that on what I’ve read on the Internet). Coco also lets me take her chew toys out of her mouth while she’s playing with them, while Cassie will growl and snap.
While that’s Coco’s disposition to me, she can be a real b*tch to my other dog (pun intended). She will eat out of Cassie’s food bowl, snarling if Cassie gets too close, nip Cassie if she gets out of line, and other things I don’t really feel are necessary to name. To humans, Coco’s a sweetheart, but to her roommate, she’s anything but.
Basically the purpose of this question is to gain insight into the social structure of our ‘pack’. Again, both dogs are well-behaved except for the issues mentioned above. They both exhibit (in my mind, at least) contradictory behaviors. While my question is out of curiosity more than anything else, I really would like to get this sorted out.
My main question is this: WHAT DO I MAKE OF MY DOGS’ BEHAVIORS? I want this question answered, not someone preaching to me how I need to be the pack leader. Sorry if that last sentence sounded like I had an attitude, but I would prefer if the the post answers the above question, and didn’t ramble on about what being a responsible dog owner is. Also, I know that in the wild, wolves have an alpha male AND alpha female; could this be what’s going on? Any help is appreciated.
PS- Sorry this post is so long, I just wanted to provide as much insight as possible, in order to receive as much insight as possible. Thanks for the time, and congrats if you made it all the way through.
I went to the doctor two weeks ago with a bad cough. He made me get some lab tests done(i am guessing about the n1h1 scare) the results he said was that my cough is from acid reflux which in my case is from stress. Why do i feel stressed and how can i deal with it? I have gone through a spout of depression already and now i guess you can say its stressed but i cant really describe how i am feeling. I graduated 2 years ago. I wasnt much for being social and my circle of freinds shows this. I took a ear of university right after high school and my parents stopped helping me pay for it after the fist semester so i had to work 40 hours a week. I then did something you can say is foolish. I worked a crappy job for the summer and couldnt afford to go to school(i had literally only saved up 2500 in a summer) i had to cancel out of going to school and had to miss a year. During that year i tried a relationship that lasted for 6 months. I wasnt really happy in the relationship towards the end so i ended it. She still is trying to get back at me, but i do not think that has to do with my stress. I just laugh at it, but feel kind of ashamed i dated someone who is doing what she is doing currently. When i broke up with her i lost all the freinds i had made while dating her which was at that point 98% of my freinds.I picked up a bar job and am currently bartending at night and doing maintenance at a golf course. I love both my jobs but every 3rd weekend i work on less than 2 hours of sleep a day for 3 days. On my days off i feel i get the most stressed i cant find anything to do and since i cant rely on my parents i dont like to spend money, and even have trouble buying clothes for myself when i look at the cost. I am currently going for a 3rd job because i find the only times i am not stressed is when i am working and contributing to my future(ie school). I am bringing in 1600 evey 2 weeks and am at 8000/1400 so i will meet my goal for school for this year but i feel like i have seperated myself from the world in an attempt to better myself and have a good job. I would go to a councellor but it costs money and i would like some spending money while i go to school. What should i do? go for a 3rd job? im not really in a situation to make any friends. All it seems my life has come down to is working and money and i know it shouldnt be about that.
Ok pilgrim, that’s a lot, but lets work on it, first 1600 every two weeks? Where the hell is your money going? If you’re killing yourself on school, here’s my advice, change schools, or dump it! What are you majoring in? I am a 2 time college drop out, my w2 last year hit 70K, and I’m not even 30 yet. If you are going to a big university, here’s some real world advice, a good resume will usually beat a good education. You’re degree from A-Hole State while golfing and drinking isn’t gonna beat some kid who graduated from community college and worked in government, and did international buisness. Life experience will triumph over school. Now by the way, I am finishing school anyway, but guess what my job pays for it now! HA HA.
Okay, moving on, i’ve been where you were at, (why else would i keep typing). Working out and getting into a physical fitness routine, eating healthy can knock out depression, if you stop watching Grey’s Anatomy and Lost, you can make some time to do this. Everyone has time to work out, so don’t give that nonsense that you don’t. A gym is great, but if you gotta start just doing sit ups and push ups in your corner that will be better than nothing. I’ve done 2-4 jobs the last 10 years and have missed about 2 weeks of workout, combine that this year with 10 credits, and i didn’t miss the gym once.
Next relationships, you’re a busy guy, a serious relationship is not gonna happen right now, which is fine, enjoy your single hood. Google PUA or pick up a copy of Neil Strauss’s the game. Just curious what was her job? Stripper? You can email me, i won’t tell.
Hope this helps, feel free to email me. Remember bro, we don’t live to eat and work. We eat and work to live.
Brace yourself, this is alot to read!
I have recently separated from my common-law husband in Feb 2010. We have a 3 year old daughter together. We had made up a verbal agreement that he was to take her every second weekend, with flexibility, in other wards, you can come see her whenever you want. It was because of this, that I agreed to stay here. For the first month or two, while he was laid off from work, he was involved to the point where I was satisfied. He came to see her a couple days a week, other then “his weekends”. As of April 2010, he stopped seeing her, and only picked her up on “his weekends”, and even then, he bailed on her every other time to go drinking with his buddies, or play golf. I called him out on this, explained to him that this wasn’t fair to our daughter, and the bailing out stopped happening. Even though he stopped bailing out on his weekends, he still never made an effort to come and see her, or call her, any other day of the week (he only lives about 20 mins away). Sept 2010, I had enough of the broken agreement, and decided to finally grow a back bone, and told him that I wanted to go back home. At this point, my daughter only saw him for a total of 4 days a month, never calls, or visits. So I told him that there was no point in me sticking around here, and that I wanted to be back home with my family. His excuse for this was “I don’t have the time”, and wouldn’t agree to let me go. As of Oct 2010, he started dating. At this point, they have only been dating for a few weeks, and had already met my daughter. At that point in the relationship, you can’t say you know the person. Yes, I am in a relationship, but I dated the guy for 6 months before introducing him to my daughter (witch in my opinion is the right thing to do). It’s been proven to me that my daughter has been left alone with this woman, while her father goes out (to do what, I don’t know). I am really uncomfortable about this situation all together. Now, still claiming that he “doesn’t have the time” to call, or visit my daughter, he started up with some sort of martial arts class that he attends during the week, after he’s done work for the day. So he has time for himself, but not his daughter!? What do I do about this? I try to talk to him, and it’s going into one ear and out the other, or he just plain doesn’t give a @#$%. I want to get things legalized, but him and his lawyer refuse to sign the papers that Legal Aid had supplied me, to get things started with proper child support payments, and other small details. But they can’t do anything until the papers are signed and brought back. I do not have a job, nor do I make alot of money, and can’t afford to pay for a lawyer. I normally wouldn’t post something like this for the whole world to see, but I’m running out of options, have no family support to ask for help, and most importantly, I’m tired of seeing that broken hearted look on my daughter’s face, slowly turning into and emotion-less one. I don’t want anything from the guy, I don’t want his money, all I want is for him to be involved in my daughter’s life, and if you can’t do so, let me go home so myself, and my daughter, can be surrounded by a loving family. Is that asking too much? Am I in the wrong here? I need some help :/
Use… paragraph… breaks.
I want to say In my autobiography the following :
As a baby I was in a oprhange, I didn’t like it. As a child I lived in a big comfortable house on mulberry lane . I had one sister and two brothers, we kept each other company.My and my sister shared a room. My sister always helped me with my homework. We talked about our future plans.We also had a dog we named her Valentina. She is black and has pointy ears. My parents were always working, both of them work for the military. So the weekends were very special. It was our only time we spent together. We usually went to the beach and ate lunch and played in the water. One day we went to putt put golf. We played for hours. My brothers liked it alot hitting the ball through obstacles. We ate at a small restaurant down the street. It was a good day. We have good memories in the big blue house on mulberry lane. ( make sure the verbs are conjacated into preterite and imperfect tenses) thanks for all the help.
In Spanish:
De nino vimimos en un grande casa. Esta en la calle Mulberry Lane. El casa es muy moderna pero comodo. I lived witht mio dos hermanos y uno hermana. Me and my sister compartimos un cuarto. Alli hablamos a menudo de nuestra planes para el futuro. Tenemos una perrita que se llama Valentina. Es negrita y pequena con ojos verdes y orejas que son pointy. Queremos muchismo a Valentina. Jugar mucho fetch con mis perra Valentina.
Entre semana mis padres siempre estan ocupados. Papa y Mama trabaja en the military base. Los fines de semana son espciales. Hay muchas cosas que tenemos que hacer. Los Sabados nos levatamos a las diez. We clean the Big house from top to bottom. Los Domingos visitamos a los abuelos y a menudo vamos a la playa o a un partida de futbol. Es realidad nos gusta el grande casa. Pasamos beunos tiempos y malos tempos alli. Now that me and my sister have gone off to college we miss it more. However my brothers still live in the house on mulberry lane.
My mother (60) and father (deceased now 2 years) seemed to have favored my brothers (41,36 &29—I am only daughter 34) from my earliest childhood memories. Sadly, it continues today. When mother needs to tell us something, I find that I am always the last one she calls. For example: about a month ago she called me and wanted to meet for about 15 minutes. As we talked thru our calendars, we found a day later on to meet. She indicated that she had already met with “the boys” the week before (about 9 days ago), so some time had gone by. Mom and I were together over the last weekend and she did not mention anything to me. I mentioned this and she said well, there just was not time then. Since she was being very mysterious about the reason to meet, I asked her to please tell me on the phone. She said, no, it would be better to just talk in person. I said okay, I would look forward to it. She did say it was nothing bad or anything to worry about. I cheerfully said okay and changed the topic. This has been the basis for the way my family operates. When my father was alive, he spent more time with his sons golfing, sports, just talking and the like. I was never close to my mother when I was growing up as she was very talented and ran a home business while my father worked long hours and weekends. There was no abuse in our family or anything like that. I just felt alone and left out and it continues today. When a family event is approaching, I am the last one called to see about my ability for the get to gether. It usually gets planned around the boys’ schedules and I must quietly adapt mine to theirs. Once recently, I called Mom ahead of the planning to suggest a day/time that would fit my husband’s job schedule and the school schedule for my children. She confirmed, yes, we can do that, we can start at Noon so you can be home by 6:00 or 6:30 pm. The day before the event, I received a phone message from Mom saying don’t forget lunch/dinner at my house – just come anytime after 3:30 or 4:00 — the boys will be there about that time and we will eat about 6:00 pm. My husband and children had things to do that evening. We kept by the schedule my Mother originally told me and left before eating. It created a huge disaster with my brothers and their spouses giving us grief over leaving “early” and not eating or appreciating the time Mom spent on the meal. This was not the fact. Mom just sat there and did not explain what she and I agreed to earlier. I tried to explain, but it fell on closed ears. Over the years, I have brought up issues like this and tried to explain my side, but since we never talked about “feelings” growing up, they just bypassed what I was saying. Any ideas how to get my voice heard now that I am a grown up, wife and mother????
I think you should stop dabbling in places where it hurts you the most.
Tell your mom that you want nothing to do with her if she can’t appreciate you.
Personally, If my mom favored my brothers and didn’t get me equal treatment, then I’d cut her out of my life. If you don’t want to do that then that’s ok but if you stay around then you are more likely to get hurt over broken arrangements.
My boyfriend and I have been dating off and on for about 18 months now but we were never completely exclusive for a bunch of different reasons. Then we deployed together and spent pretty much every day together, for nine months, so it made sense that we should be official since we’d both been fighting it for so long. We FINALLY made it official in July that yes, we are in fact in an exclusive relationship: boyfriend and girlfriend. Our friends laughed and said, “It’s about time!”
Once we got back stateside and made it official things were going great. I walked around with a smile on my face all the time and he did too. We’ve taken weekend trips away, go out all the time, sleep over at each other’s houses, spend time together etc. Lately, about a month and a half later, I feel like we’re starting to have problems and I don’t think it’s all me.
On several occasions we’ve had to discuss his almost CONSTANT texting ex girlfriends and girls he hooked up with. I’ve tried to be reasonable and not get jealous. My exes have dropped me a line or two just to see how I’m doing, but with him it’s ALL the time. When we go out and drink, I get jealous and we start arguing. He says I need to trust him and I’m the only girl for him. Finally it came to a head the Sunday night when I finally broke down and cried (sober this time), and told him I hate it that he feels the need to answer these girls’ texts. If he cares about me like he claims, he should recognize that I shouldn’t be sitting on the couch next to him willing myself not too look at the phone and to trust him. How would he feel if I were constantly texting my ex-boyfriend? He agreed and said he would hate it and that “I’m the only girl for him”, that he wants to talk to and sleep with and kiss and hug and spend time with, and that he would put an end to it. He felt so bad that he kept apologizing throughout the night – even though I’d forgiven him – and sent me a text the next morning to apologize again and let me know that I’m his girl and the only one he wants.
I felt a lot better about it, and to his credit, his phone stopped buzzing with texts from other girls since.
But then last night, he came over to my place. We had a lovely dinner, and were sitting on the couch when – out of nowhere – he started this spiel about about how he’s a “man” and needs his space and time out with the guys. He doesn’t need to spend time alone with me every day and is okay with not seeing me every day.
I was completely surprised, hurt, confused and frustrated. I told him, I thought that I did give him guy time (going golfing, hanging out and drinking with friends a couple times a week without me) and that it’s not fair to want to exclude me because his friends are my friends too. Before I was his girlfriend, it was the four of us hanging out and having a good time no problem. Why should it have to change now that I’m his girlfriend? He laughed and agreed, and said that the four of us hanging out like normal wasn’t what he meant. So again I was confused.
I said if it really meant that much to him, then I would go out on Saturday with some girl friends so he could have his “guy time”. He got annoyed and said that we didn’t have to schedule time to be apart. But if he wanted to go out to a bar with just the guys, that should be ok. He said “great, now you’re mad and going to be all passive aggressive about things.” But I was just frustrated because I don’t understand what he wants.
Then after all that, he snuggles up to me on the couch saying how much fun he has just sitting there watching tv with me and doing nothing. After that we went to bed, and he held me all night whispering sweet things like “I’m so crazy about you” in my ear when he thought I was sleeping.
I don’t know what to make of it? Does he only want a girlfriend when it’s convenient for him? Isn’t it normal to want to spend time with your boyfriend/girlfriend? I don’t expect him to spend all his time with me. I certainly don’t NEED to see him all the time, but I want to, but I don’t ask him to do that.
What is his deal? What should I do?
He is a commitaphobe….so that’s what I’m worried about.
Haha, he is afraid of committment because he got hurt very badly 3-4 years ago and hasn’t been in a real relationship since. He uses humor as a facade and barricade to protect himself.
But that being said, we had a heart-to-heart, and things are MUCH better now. I compromised (and I think it will work better for me too) in that, I give him time alone with his guy friends and cultivate my own friendships outside of our close group of four.
I think it will just take time to build trust and figure each other out. But he said he wants to, so I think we’re going to make a go of it.
Thanks for the advice!!
I think that he is that kind of guy who doesn’t understand what he needs…………..or he could be playing SWEET with you just for the sake of being with you.
From where i can understand it……..first he thinks that he needs you more than anything and then suddenly when you are in his life taking interest, he thinks that he needs to bail out or at least bring it down a notch but it’s too late then. so, then he starts acting weird……….
Or he could be afraid of commitment…………….SORRY!!!!!
Like I told you before, he needs and doesn’t need you……it’s complicated…………..if he cannot change then you are gonna have to find someone COMMITTED…………
