Check out the photos on the right.  We met BT (comedian) last night (Fri, Apr 18th) at the Tampa Improv.  He was hilarious!!!  We were there for Gary Gullman who was ok (but adorable).  We didn't wait around to see if Gary would come out afterwards for photos/autographs.  We did get to see him eating supper at Fresh Mouth burgers before the show though!!!

 

The other photo is Jared Padalecki from SUPERNATURAL.  Yes, that is a REAL PHOTO and YES he is that hot in person.  Rachel said the whole Eyecon convention was worth it just for that photo.

To kind of back-track here, here is my history with kidney stones...   Feb 4 (2008) I had severe pain and ended up going to an urgent care doctor who diagnosed that I most likely had kidney stones (very likely I passed one that day).  I had a CT scan done that same day where a .3cm stone was seen.  I was referred to a urologist who had me do an IVP instead where the stone was still seen (2 x 3mm) in the beginning of March.  Since 3mm equals .3cm I'm guessing the stone hasn't changed in size which is a good thing; but it hasn't passed either, which is a bad thing. 

 

So to help it pass I have decided to attempt the Kidney Stone cleanse.  The one that I have chosen is the olive oil & lemon juice mix.  Today (15 Apr 08) is day 1.  I mixed 2oz (which is 1/4 cup) of extra virgin olive oil and 2oz (1/4 cup) of lemon juice in a small glass and drank it down.  Note that this mix is not for those with senstive stomachs (or sensitive tastebuds!).  I QUICKLY 'downed' it and QUICKLY drank a large glass of COLD water.  I also had alittle bit of ice cream to help kill the taste which really helped.

 

So we'll see how it goes (no pun intended).  My next urologist appointment is next week so I'm hoping to pass it (and catch it which will be the 'fun' part) before then.
