Tweet As the result of more than a few bone-jarring collisions on two and four wheels as well as the odd slap-shot to my head, long-established injuries are my daily companions taking the form of everything from floating knee-cap fragments to blinding headaches. In general these mementos are not new to me, but during the...
First and foremost, apologies to the following:
Always thought you had a great looking tailbone. 
Once again, apologies…. I couldn’t resist.
Glad you’re feeling better.
God Speed.
LOL… Dagmar, you have always been unique, but I guess we never knew just much.
((hugs))
Dagmar’s X-File!
Sorry to hear about your pain! I can empathize with you, as years of sports have given me a lot of creaking, painful joints, too.
You had to know the guy’s in Atlanta would say this; I always thought you had a great tailbone too. Hope you are doing well
And on another positive note, it appears you have no cavities. 
You are missed here in ATL.
Even the x-rays of your bones are beautiful!! LOL. Hope Dr. Gee helps you with the pain your having and gets you back to a painless path of life!! peace.
P.S. I speak for the city of atlanta when i say: WE MISS YOU AND THE WEATHER REPORT WILL “NEVER” BE THE SAME WITHOUT OUR MIDCAP!! But still we wish you all the best that Cali has to offer and that you be blessed with all of the healing god can give.
LUV YA
i so agree with dwight. that tailbone matches your attitude… both are great ones. thanks fpr sharing
Good Evening Dagmar(D’)!…WHOA! I knew you got ‘banged-up’. I TRULY hope and pray for your continued recovery. What kind of adventures are you up to now?.. Always your #1 Fan, and a friend!… Shawn
Better take care of your body & bones as U get older it will show up on U. I know I did’nt think so when I was young. but I sure as heck know it now,& feel it to! Be Safe & take care of pretty self!
Great to hear you’re making progress with old injuries …hope you have the same luck with old wounds …by the way half the weathercasters up here are about to go on mat leave , any chance you’d like to fill in ? …and driving telivision is missfireing since you left !
Those 2 little ribs you mentioned, They are not part of the upper Thorasic ( bad spelling ) area??? I know that some women have this and can cause them some server pain.
Dagmar, you got great bones!! LOL :>)
The doc said they are two tiny ribs at the very top of the ribcage that started to grow but never fully formed.
D
Dag-O-Vision. I don’t see any pain. Where is it? My ankles took a beating when I was playing basketball and baseball over the many kid years. Between coming down on somebody’s ankle for a rebound or sliding into bases and my foot decided to make a left turn… “Hello!” Or, the time I went head first over the handlebars on my bike and the first thing to hit the ground was my chin… that was a fun one. Oh well, like I tell my friend’s kids when they get hurt and are crying… If you never get hurt you don’t have any horror stories to tell your friends later on. “Oh yeah, well there was this time when I ….”
Hey, I can see through you now. Imagine doing your old weather forecasts in Atlanta with these images impose over your regular body. I am glad you are on the road to recovery physically, but how are you doing mentally and emotionally?
D there also seems tobe alot of space between L5 & L4
slight curve to the right
you may need a neck brace
If I may poke a little humor.
You were suppose tobe taller.
Dagmar, What are you gonna do when you get old? I want you to teach me how to ice skate and play hockey with you at least once. I wanna know what it’s like to take on a pretty female goalie and get my ____ kicked. Ha. But, then there’s the make up later on. Yea! I never wanted to make up with any of the guys I played sports with. Thank God, for that! Hey, well at least I know who I am and what I want. Made ya smile! Made ya smile! How are you at tickling? OK. OK. I guess I’m getting too personal for a web forum. Boy, pretty soon you’re gonna need a censor on this darn thing. Ha. Take care. Happy Birthday coming up. I don’t know when, but I’ve heard it’s in March.
I always thought you were a very special lady…who knew you were that special? LOL! Glad you’re feeling better D! Keep Smiling! =)

I’m here if you want to talk, Dagmar. Still wondering what it would be like to just have a normal conversation with you without any pressure. I just hate to see such a bright person not being afforded an opportunity to have a normal life. There are so many things to do and places to go and friends to feel safe with, coming home to that special person who you get a smile from that nobody else gets to have. I know the world is knocking on your door and you feel you have nothing to give, but that’s why I’m writing… to give you back something you’ve aleady given. I’m not sure what it is, but it is joy, peace, inspiration, love, care, hope, trust, friendship, harmony and so many other things…
Good morning Dagmar(D). I hope you are doing well. ..I noticed you had a ‘stalker’ problem. Station(etc.).Of course It wasn’t me. Remember, I was the guy who did you ‘Blackwell’ reports teasing since BMA!. I noticed you dropped off Twitter or I was ‘Blocked’. Cannot imagine why. I’ve always been a fan of yours.I’ve just always thought of you as a better looking version of me!.. Remember when my roommate brought a guy over, and your name came up because of your pic. on my desk. I put the guy through the sheetrock. You told me,”Thanks, but that wasn’t necessary”. I met you at a festival. You had a crowd. I just wanted to talk about our dogs and dogs rescue. I hope and pray you don’t have a stalker. Some guys post ‘concern me for YOU’. You’re smart. I’m the ‘good guy’!..Always….
Stop blaming yourself for what happened. It was not your fault. You are not a sad person, or worthless or pathetic. YOU ARE AN ANGEL and I want you to ACCEPT that praise because YOU DESERVE IT! I want you to stop feeling anxious and scared. Don’t be afraid of a little conflict now and then. Pushing back just a little to a man is like giving catnip to a cat. YEAH BABY!! Don’t worry about trying to be nice to everybody. You’ve given enough for the next 20 years! Let somebody else give. Step forward and say, “I’m Dagmar and I have friends everywhere! To hell with what anyone thinks!” If you feel no self-respect, tell yourself that everybody feels like a failure sometimes. (most of the time actually) Keep moving… just a little at a time… baby steps with your puppies.. and let them pull on the leash. Don’t sleep too much. Don’t get involved in too many activities. Just focus on one little thing that gives you enjoyment and stick with that. The rest will come naturally later on. Don’t feel guilty because of the things you are doing to help yourself. You deserve the rest and relaxation… just do it! If you feel uncomfortable with me praising you, TOUGH!!! GET USED TO IT!!! YOU DESERVE IT!! If you don’t believe me, ask somebody else. Don’t talk to others about your weaknesses. Talk about your strengths. You’ll be conversing for weeks. You are incredibly successful in SO MANY AREAS that men are drooling over you. PLEASE, DON’T FORGET THAT!!! I know that you feel safe among your friends. You need that time, but don’t concentrate on using them to fix you. You don’t need fixing!!! …and whatever you do … remember YOU ARE NOT ONLY LOVEABLE… YOU ARE THE BOMB, THE BABE, THE CHICKY, THE HONEY, THE FOX, THE HOTTIE… YOU ARE DAGMAR!!! You are a DREAM to SO MANY MEN!!!
hi, dag
I can see why you left Atlanta, sounds as if you have a stalker.
So sorry you had to leave town , but it is better to be safe than let some jerk attack you. I once had a problem sim to yours too a restraining order out and it did not stop him. Finally police arrested him. Moved to a new town, no published numbers.
Good luck in your new life Get a big stick to beat off all the heals and slugs and lowlifes.
Dagmar,I am so sorry to hear for your loss. I never post comments on the web but, after learning of why you are no longer here, for some reason I felt compelled to write you. I too, have lost my best friend to suicide. My brother passed away ten years ago this October, so I can speak to you straight from the heart when I say I know the pain and suffering you are going through. There is not a day goes by that I don’t think about my Bro.Life goes on and it doesn’t get any easier, It just gets more bearable about the loss. They say time heals all wounnds, but I have yet to see it.The thing that keeps me going is that I know that God has a plan and I’ll see my Bro again someday. I myself have confidence in this. You have a God gifted talent in what you do and I hope you stick whith it wearever you may be. You made weather interesting like when you were in the plane in the eye of the hurricane awhile back. Chuck’s weather forecast: Dagmar’s Cool today, She was Cool yesterday, and she’ll be Cool tomorrow.Thanks Dagmar and I hope you do well in whatever you pursuit in life. God be with you and we are missing you in Ga. Thanks, Chuck.
Just confirmation on the fact that your one of a kind Dagmar!
Hello Dagmar
Just stumbled across your site and your “Spare Parts” post in particular. Got a little chuckle out of it as I always enjoy finding members who came from the same alien planet I did. What you/we have is called a “transitional vertebrae” with respect to that “add on” vertebrae you have at the base of your spine (the Lumbar). And it can manifest itself in a variety of ways.
It usually decides to be either part of your Lumbar or part of your Sacrum (your hip platform). It varies from person to person. In my case, I essentially have an L6 like you do but it decided to half fuse to my Lumbar and half to my Sacrum. Good times!
Transitional Vertebrae happens in about 5% of the population so it’s not completely uncommon. Unfortunately, however, it’s uncommon enough that there has not been a lot of research done yet on this phenomenon. And while many folks go through life without any problems related to this issue, others like you and I apparently, do deal with a fair amount of pain related to it.
To that end, the medical community seems to be divided on this. That is, many feel that a transitional vertebrae is not responsible for pain while others do. There does not seem to be a majority agreement on either position. Nor does there seem to be much that can be done to correct the condition…only try to manage the symptoms as best as possible.
I’m really happy to hear that you have found someone who is able to give you some relief. Back pain most certainly sucks.
Peace
Hey Dagmar
You are a VERY interesting girl. We should really talk. I started a TV show called Drag Race San Diego a few years ago at the same time TOP GEAR started in UK. Now, Top Gear has 350 million viewers and has made the hosts wealthy, while the director of Cox Cable San Diego said “No one is interested in car shows or racing.”
I have over 20 years in film and building custom cars. I would love to chat with you sometime. Take a look at my sites and drop me a line when you get the chance. Thanks.

I got a new camera the other week and I’m slowly learning about all the new setting options. Of course it’s difficult to take a bad picture when the lens is pointed at some of my favorite subjects. Let me know what you think…

Great pictures for just figuring out your new camera. Your companions are in the greatest hands!
These are great pictures. I have a rescue dog, a Malamute I’ve had about 10 years. She’s my best friend. It looks like you are doing well. We still miss you in Georgia.
I have to say your pictures are great!!!!!!! Your ” babies” are just tooo precious. I have two Basset Hounds Tesa Mae and Spencer Wayne and I enjoy taking their picture also. Nothing beats the love and comfort animals bring.
Those are nice looking pictures, the camera has really good resolution to them. What kind of camera are you using? I am glad to see you loving Santa Monica, I wish I was there instead of in the frigid north.
They are all so cute! 3 Dogs and a bird?
I have 3 dogs and 2 birds. They all think they are human!
They are my babies. I have a Blue and Gold Macaw (Barcelona), A Red Sided Eclectus (Frankie) A Weimaraner (Jed) and 2 Cocker Spaniels (Pepper and Caesar). The Birds are just like 2 year olds they never grow up and move away!!!!
Glad to see you are a animal lover. We sure do Miss You here in Atlanta. Take care and Best of luck in your journies
Cute Boy.
It’s always good to hear from you, Dagmar. You’re truly missed in Atlanta. Please stay in touch (more often).
Mac
Is this the same fellow that seems to accompany you in many photos? I think he is, literally, a lucky dog. Great pics, Dagmar.
Your animals are so cute! What kind of camera did you get?
D’ Dagmar. I had the most wonderful day with ‘the boys’ they wore me out. ..Dagmar Your fan/friends think of you daily. I know I am able to take care of my ‘boys’…. but Your input is always appreciated. …My money had a purpose.. always your #1 fan friend, and supporter …. Miss You So Much!!!.. Shawn….
That must be a good camera, it take’s a pretty picture.true the model’s are flawless, but the color and detail is very clear. I had a dog with a pink spot allmost like that on her nose,her name was charlotte but some called her pinky because of that spot.
Good pictures. I have a black lab mix, but can’t get a good photo of her since she is so black. I’ve said that I need to have a professional do it. Also considered artist portrait. They are not too enthusiastic about that though.
Enjoy your dog(s), they are great friends.
Atlanta has had such miserable weather lately, and your sunny smile would have made it infinitely more bearable. Your road trip to the west coast would make a beautiful book. Pets really soothe the soul. I have Pewter Fledermaus, Felix the Frumious Bandersnatch, Fiona, Sinead, and Balderdash, all rescues; the first two are dogs and the last three are cats. Wish you could look up Doris Day and her animal rescue efforts in California. She has been through difficult times in her life, too, and her animals kept her sunny.
Boy! What lucky guys! All bathed and clipped, shined up and ready for a show, but I’ll bet they’d rather go for a walk and just play than go to some stinky old show. Just like a guy, huh! Boy, I wish somebody would bath me and clip me and wash the dust out of my fur! Some guys have all the luck. 
OK, I’ll just go with the positives… I’m attentive, consciencious and fun. I don’t bark except when I get excited or scared. I haven’t bitten anybody. I’m loyal and trustworthy, but I have not been neutered. I’m holdin’ out on that one. If there’s a lady whose smiling and walking towards me with a knife in her
hand, I do tend to run. Though I’m not in a cage, I’m very lonely and left all to myself. I’m pretty sure I don’t have heartworms (maybe a few headworms). I’m cheap to own, like to eat bad food, and am dry at night (unless provoked). If your boys would like to have me for a friend I would love to be a part of the luckiest dogs on earth. …and bird.
We miss your beautiful personality in Atlanta! Thanks for the time here.
Hey Dagmar, I was just reading an article about an actress who struggled in her life. I won’t say who but… I had an awful thought that… I hope you’re not letting things get to you. I will be very angry with you if you are, and so will alot of other people. You have inspired literally tens of thousands of people to be better versions of themselves than they otherwise would’ve been. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again… I had given up believing that somebody like you even existed anymore. And now that I know you do exist I am so thankful. Don’t heap pressure on yourself to perform or feel that you have to look like you’re 21. The beauty you possess on the inside far outweighs the outside. Like God gives us grace for free… just accept that you are loved by many and there are many who would do things for you just because it makes them happy to give back a little bit of what you gave them. Do you understand? I wish I could help more, but dang it… you moved 3000 miles away.
Dagmar, I looked at your pictures of your dog and your wiki, read your article. when the dog smiles And Wiki Smiles And Shakes ,I will know that you are smiling to. that is the truth.
love what you do these days. just want to also say hello.
D – sending a box soon, same address as last time?
the pictures tell a 1000 words,and as the old saying goes the more i know my dog , the less i like people.van b.c
I wish you’d write to me or call. I’d love to have about a 3-hour phone call with you. Just hearing your sweet voice is the best therapy there is.
I looked at the wonderful pictures of your animal family and just happened to scroll down to Randy’s comment on 2/11. I have to agree with Randy totally. At least maybe Buster will give you some good memories of Atlanta. Are you still in Vancouver? Your family here in Atlanta really miss you. You did so much for pets here. Take care and stay well.
Awesome Pics Dagmar…Beautiful animals being cared for by a beautiful person…
I just adopted a puppy 6 months ago…it has been an adventure but alot of fun and I now have a walking/jogging partner…He also knows how to turn on the sad eyes to get treats…ha ha
You are as talented behind a camera as you are in front of one! I hope things are treating you well in California, & that all those adorable subjects are overloaded with many pats – so cute! We still miss you lots up here in Vancouver!
What kind of camera did you get, I want one!
Best Wishes from Rabbitsford,
Al
You’ll get there,nice subject, Dogs Rule.
Dagmar Your Dog Is So Cute. I Love him. I have two dogs my own I love them just as much I love your Dog.
Nice pup , not to bad of a photo either , keep up the good work .
Great colors in the photo. I am also in the market for a new camera. What brand and model did you get?
With you love for animals, did you ever consider opening a Doggie Daycare?
I have a sheltie. Nothing like coming home to an animal that loves you no matter what. My dog always makes me feel better.
What a lovely furry and feathered family you’ve got there. Great personality shots!!! My furry family consists of 4 rescued cats and 1 rescued dog. Actually they rescued me…
I think your setting on thsi photo is just right. Good luck
