Patient had heartburn after eating a "hot met"

this was in a report I transcribed a couple of days ago.  I left a blank because the client allows 2 blanks, but it has just been bugging me ever since.  It was an account in the southern US, so I wondered if it was something specific to that region (I've lived on the west coast all my life).  Can anyone satisfy my curiousity and tell me what a "hot met" is? 


How much do you tip for a facial??
I'm having my first facial this afternoon, but I have no idea how much I should tip?! Is it usually the same as a hairdresser, 15-20%? Thanks for any info!
That just burns me. I have to say...sm
from a personal point of view. When I was 18 I was going to a small Christian College. There was a rumor about me going around like that. It was untrue. The Counselor at the college pulled me into his office along with the guy rumored to be involved.

Needless to say, I dropped out of that school and never went back. This kind of behavior is reprehensible.

I feel sorry for the girl and her parents. This counselor should lose his job. They have no right to do this type of thing in the first place. I hope they get some results from this.
If you read both treads, you would know what it has to do with it. You know "what is going on.

Yet another thing that royally burns me!

The ol' boo-hoo teachers are under paid bit.  They work how many days a year?  And how many of those days are a full 8 hours?!  They get a FULL benefits package courtesy of the taxpayers and we get squatola.  They get at LEAST a 4% raise every year...what do you or I get?!  Oh that's right, we get the priviledge of higher taxes and they put out a consistently poor product every year.  Frig that.


 


How can anyone afford a luxury like a facial
I can't even keep food in my fridge or gas in my tank!
does anyone of those facial hairs like a mustache? if so, how do you treat it? sm
what is a fast solution and a long-term fix?  thanks!
Wait a minute, "What is wrong?". sm
These are hard, hard times, and there are always two sides to every story. She was asking for good recommendations, and she got some. That's what a support system is all about, you know. I'm delighted to see all the good and practical suggestions here, not the criticism.

It burns me up when parents support their bratty kids' actions
This kid is going to get some bumps and bruises from the School of Hard Knocks, otherwise known as LIFE.
I lived in Montana for two years. Every time I opened my mouth, they said, "What part
of the South are you from?  I said, "Golly bum, South Carolina".
That is exactly what I was thinking, HUH?! lol NM

Thank you for thinking of others!!
     
that's exactly what i was thinking

That is what I was thinking. At first, she might
have had some point to what she was saying...but not after all the other posts I had started reading.
Well, I'm thinking one (sm)
of the differences (and I don't think that makes it right), is that this insurance company obviously is not putting out a huge amount of money for this claim. I highly doubt that you have the same insurance company that they have, so that could be another reason why it was so easy for them. If you ask my opinion, even though I'm related to them, I think it's a little over the top. I certainly didn't mean to cause any resentment or anger here by posting this to begin with. I really didn't believe that it would turn out this way. I'm still surprised.
What are they THINKING?

Just watched Idol and am shaking my head in disbelief.


You said everything I was thinking
.
Thank you for saying what I was thinking... sm
But didn't want to say. Esp. the post below about putting band-aids on the nipple and the child sucked beside the band-aids and put hickies on mom's breast? Oh, man. I'm sure it was all very innocent, but that made me nauseous.

I thought maybe it was just me, since I don't have kids, but breast-feeding that long seems a little sick to me. (I know, I know, they do it in other countries, it's perfectly natural, we're the ones with the hang-up, etc.)
Thinking??? They are not thinking.
I already have one brother in the pen and my other brother has NEVER been in trouble, he is nearing 50 years old and is facing several years in the pen for being plain brainless!!! Sorry, I am just so frustrated, I don't understand this and now I am left alone to assist our aging parents.
Thinking they can get away with it - ego. nm

I'm thinking...(sm)

They were Brooke's eggs...so Taylor's carrying Brooke and Nick's child...and Bridgette had everything to do with it, probably not Brooke!


Wow...aint we glad real life isn't a soap!!! But sure do love indulging in fantasy for 30 minutes a day!


Do you also watch Y&R? I don't think Nick's really dead...he'll come back, Phyllis will probably be in jail, and he and Sharon will raise Summer...just a thought!


That's what I was thinking too
for my own bedroom, which we are in the process of painting now. I want to add some color, and think that some kind of border would break the contrast between the wall and the ceiling, be it wallpaper, sponge technique, stenciling, or other. I think maybe having the ceiling the same color as the walls would be too much for me, unless a very light color.
This is the one I was thinking of! Thanks - nm
:)
LOL. Thinking the same
thing here. If anyone makes that doing this, they have to be totally working their behinds off!
Thinking about a new pet . . .
Does anyone have a ferret?  Are they difficult to care for?  Do you have to buy a pair or could I start out with just one in a large area where more could be added over time.  What is the best type of cage that is chew proof?  There are so many out there.
i'd like to know too, been thinking about that myself lately. sm
we have recently had to have 3 different appraisals on our home. i had to pay $350, $350 and $375 for each one. the last one the lady was here at max 15 minutes, it was her second appraisal for the day and she was gone before noon and i know she was heading to do another when she left my house. sounds like descent money to me. i am sure gas expenses are quite hefty with the traveling, but still seems like much better profit than MT. she took pictures and measured a few things and that was about all other than preparing the paperwork, researching other properties in area, etc.
I am thinking... sm
One year I planted tomato plants, 12 of them.  They all grew fine, grew flowers, then all of a sudden I could look out the window and actually SEE them such them down, whole plants.  schlooop.  gotta feed the babies.  We put some screening underground and next season was better.  Sorry about you punkins.  It could be rabbits, but the whole plant thing going underground was definitely gophers for me.
I'm so sorry! I was thinking
about your post the other day. My dog had the same type of weird behavior. He was wandering around aimlessly and fell asleep in a closet - not like him at all. We didn't really think too much of it at the time. Then a few weeks later he was walking along and fell over into the pool. He hates the pool and is terrified of water. My mother (who can't swim) jumped in after him, but he was already swimming. He never even went completely under the water, he recovered that fast. We brought him to the vet immediately. He had no hearing loss or vision loss. The vet said that he probably had a TIA. It has happend a couple more times since then. Other then the little episodes, which only last a few minutes, he is a perfectly normal dog and plays and eats. The vet didn't really do anything for him. He just told us that if we noticed any big changes, to bring the dog in immediately. I would definitely take her to the vet and see what the vet has to say. Give your baby lots of love!!!
Well, please at least tell me what you are thinking (sm)
I know you are not a doctor and won't consider it to be medical advice but have you heard of something like this before??
Thinking of you! - sm
My PS was calling us all today asking for us to work extra because of all the MTs in S. CA who are down. At least someone at the company cares!

My thoughts and prayers are with everyone down there.
Was actually thinking about you
when I saw it on the news - actually had film on Cape Cod.  Glad you are okay.  I also know several other regulars are from Maine. 
Thanks. That's what I was thinking.

EXACTLY what I was thinking!
I have come to realize that my so-called "friend" is a very jealous person, and it makes me insane because I don't understand it! This is a small thing, but for example, at the beginning of this past summer, my husband and I were talking with her about GPS systems and how it would be nice to have one for our car for when we travel. She told us that she would love to get one, too, but they were just so expensive. My husband and I ended up getting a great deal on a really nice GPS system online in July, so we bought it, and when I told her about it, her exact response was, "I really have no interest in those things." I couldn't believe it! She had seemed like she wanted one ever more than we did!

Also, shortly before Thanksgiving, we were talking about laptop computers and how we both wanted new ones (we both had older ones), and she kept telling me that she was going to get one after the holidays, but I had no immediate plans to buy one. Well, for Christmas, my husband bought me a beautiful brand new HP laptop, which was completely unexpected! I was so excited, so I told her the good news and her response was, "Laptops are nothing but pains. I hate the things." Why does she do this???? I hate jealous people! It's not even like I was trying to make her jealous, but was just so excited that I wanted to share the exciting news with someone! Shouldn't a friend be happy for you and not turn completely jealous when something good happens for you?

I guess she is not really a true friend. After all of these times of blowing us off by not coming over when she has said she was going to, I am just sick of it, and I'm not going to even talk to her anymore.
Thanks - that's what I was thinking too (sm)
That at least I could try to show him a respectful way to behave, give him an example. Interesting that I am also a Scout leader :-)
I was thinking that too!!
I need to find a way to keep my arms out from under my pillow while I sleep too!!

Thanks - that's exactly what I was thinking (sm)
Thanks for understanding where I was coming from.
Exactly what I was thinking.
Don't cook, don't clean, don't wash...I guess if I didn't ever have to do anything, I may remember moving a pair of underwear to a specific different drawer 2 days before I was going to wear them. As I sit right now, when I open a drawer I'm lucky if I remember why I came in the room let alone what I opened the drawer for. Pay the lady and maybe she can buy her own soap and undies.
That's the one I was thinking of!
Rules of Engagement. That show is SO funny. Just crackes me up every time. I like the other shows on the Monday night lineup too but they have had a LOT iof repeats so I stopped recording them. Except my hubs knows if he sees Christine or Rules of Engagement he will record them for me.
Still thinking -
BBQ pork and chicken are good too. Something you can grill a few days ahead and then leave in the crock pot to finish the day you want it. I find pork roasts are relatively inexpensive and really go far without much shrinking.

I also make a mexican-type dish - my take on something Rachel Ray did. Boil (or use leftover) chicken breasts, shred, add 1 package of salsa mix (I have also used taco seasoning but like the salsa better), add some cilantro to this. I use small corn tortillas that I quickly fry in a little oil just to make them pliable. Add the chicken to the tortillas, roll up like a cigar, line them all in a 13x9 and top with Chihuhua cheese (not sure on the spelling but any mexican melting cheese will do). STick them under the broiler to melt the cheese. I serve with salsa, a salad and/or rice. Kids love them too!
Just know there are those that will be thinking
xx
And if it's the one I'm thinking of,
it is also DELICIOUS! 
This is exactly what I was thinking...sm

If someone does not show up or respond, especially when they are expected to, I would want to make sure they were okay. 


Perhaps she is thinking of him...
I do not so much subscribe to putting down animals who seem happy enough. I really struggle with putting down an animal at all, unless death is eminent and unavoidable, i.e., a horse with a ruptured intestine. At the very least, keep in mind that it is ultimately her decision. I can't imagine trying to convince someone to kill her pet. My mother-in-law did this three years ago at Christmas time when my dog had hurt her back. She is old. She is still old--three years later--and her back is much better now.
It might mean that HE is thinking about you, how you
are managing in this difficult times. What terrible fact tht he does not want tio have ve anything to do with his child.
Would he know how to get into touch with you?
I am thinking no on this one also
name calling?
thanks for the info, LOL. I was thinking it was some
kind of food giveaway from the government, ya know, like the free cheese thing.  LOL
I was thinking more along the lines
poo maybe?

I'm curious to see what this really does mean.. LOL. First thing that came to my warped mind.


No, what they heck are they thinking?
