    Even a faint line should be considered positive. Swabbing the throat may give you a darker line if you need to convince someone.

    It’s entirely appropriate. Professors receive emails all the time. If he wants to answer you, he will. If he doesn’t, he won’t.

    Why not try emailing him directly? You never know, you might get a response more quickly.

    This is very common. Lots of new POTS and cardiac patients too. My sister is also a runner whose symptoms were much milder than yours - she barely had any - and seemed just fine until a few weeks later when the brain fog, exhaustion, and orthostatic issues began. She's not sure she’ll ever run again. It’s very frustrating.

    Obviously, I know some people who disagree with you as they’re quite happy at Millsaps, but good to have other opinions. 🙂

    Is Millsaps too far? Small and very supportive, with some excellent professors.

    There a several reasons why an interview can go badly, but I doubt that not stalking the interviewer and letting them know it is one of them. The prospective students are there to be interviewed. Should they have some questions of their own prepared? Absolutely. Should those questions have anything to do with information they gleaned from the interwebz regarding their interviewer? Absolutely not.

    It’s all fair game, and I would absolutely look. I just wouldn’t let him know that I had.

    Some people actually find that really creepy and a turn off, so tread carefully there. Maybe have him do the research and know things about the interviewer’s field of interest and if it comes up he can be all “oh, isn’t that funny, I was just reading about” rather than creeperish “yes, I know all about your involvement because I was stalking you in the internet.”

    Too late! We’ve already named your cats. 😜

    Ooh ! I like it !!

    I see only two possibilities for a name to go along with Roland: Barthes or Chanson Congratulations on the new additions.

    I haven’t recently, so thanks for the reminder. I used to use it regularly. My experience is very similar to that of Lori D., although I don’t think the initial pain lasted as long after the first few times. Once you get through the pain it is wonderful. I would often fall asleep on it.

    Yes, it’s very relaxing.

    Loose for tea, always. Sometimes I’ll buy linden or apple tea in bags for convenience, but I find the flavor inferior.

    Another recommendation to go to REI where someone can help you find what will work. Boots are an investment. If you have small enough feet you can get away with kid’s boots, which are usually much less expensive.

    Nuts. I thought I was going to get off easy with the college classes, just copying the descriptions. Back to work. Ugh. I also really doubt that we’ve held onto the syllabi from a while ago. 😭
  18. bibiche
    For the DE classes, do you just list the description found in the course catalog/on the syllabus, or do you provide more detailed information ?

    If the school allows self-reported scores I can’t imagine there is any advantage to sending them in before acceptance. Save your money.

    Thank you for the update, @MEmama. Sending lots of love your way. I know that you’re a wonderful, caring mother. 🫶

    This is not helpful. I’m sure she’s quite worried enough.

    I think it’s about time for @Spy Car to advertise the Neat steam cleaner, which will make child’s play out of cleaning your bathtubs. 😉
  23. bibiche
    Never! I don’t have a bathtub. When I did it was cleaned weekly or as-needed.

    Um, a driver’s license doesn’t confer maturity. Many of the most sophisticated 18+ kids I know don’t drive, some because they are mature enough to realize that teenage brain + car = not a good combination.

    I thought this was going to be about marshmallows Peeps. Disappointed!
