Whiney Post

I'm sorry dudes, but I'm a bummer. I think I just need to get out of town. My stupid body isn't working too good, I've gained a lot of weight and am feeling down on myself, and I just need a change in pace.
This is lame.

Emergency! Emergency!

Today I spent 3 1/2 hours in the emergency room.

About a week ago I started getting random sharp pains in my left temple. They would last about 5 seconds and would happen a few times a day. I didn't think too much about it, but I made sure to keep aware of my body. Through out the week the pain continued, and started happening more and more often. This morning the pain went from happening every hour or so to every couple minutes. Intense pain that left pressure on the left side of my head, gave me tunnel vision, and made me feel really out of it.
Concerned it may be a swollen vein in my head- something that can happen with my buttface of a disease, I decided to call around and get in with a doctor. I made a lot of calls. Some docs wouldn't accept my insurance, some docs didn't have time, some docs didn't have a clue about my disease, and all of them wouldn't take me in as a new patient for at lease a month. Scared out of my mind (I literally thought I might have a stroke) I had Will take me to the emergency room.
I was taken in right away, given an IV and had blood taken. I was then wheeled around and given a CT scan. I spent the next two hours waiting for my results with Will. We played games and listened for the lullaby over the speakers (every time a baby is born they play a lullaby over the entire hospital! It was so cute! Four babies were born while I was there).
Finally, the doctor came back and said my results were clear. I was discharged with a "headache" and referred to a rheumatologist.
Though my doctor said I was justified with my concern, especially with my disease, I still feel like a chump every time I have to see a doctor, and especially every time I admit myself into the ER. I worry because most symptoms of my disease are odd and don't seem connected, they have no pattern and are just straight up confusing. But at the same time, I HATE laying on a bed surrounded by people that REALLY have it rough. It makes me feel like a whiner.

Eh, better safe than sorry I guess.

My day: A boring story

I started my day pantless. Some people lose a sock at night. I lose my bottoms.
I got out of bed and took Tucker out of his crate. He was howling. It was annoying.
I went downstairs and turned on my internet.
I made myself half a PJ&J sandwich. I do that every morning.
I check my bank account, I got paid.
I made just enough to pay rent, with $6 left over to last me till February 12th. Awesome. That will get me a gallon of gas and a lean cuisine.
I cried a little. Hey, money is stressful.
I checked craigslist for jobs. The only one I qualified for was as a drive through barista. Problem was you had to do it topless. No thanks, skanks.
I started on my taxes.
Tucker annoyed me.
I didn't finish my taxes.
I took a shower.
I used my $130 worth of hair products. It made me feel rich. I thought it was funny I was washing my hair with $30 bottles of shampoo and conditioner when I only had $6 to my name.
I got ready for work.
I drove to work.
I clocked in.
I was told a client brought in homemade wedding cookies- SCORE.
I sat at a desk.
I sat at a desk more.
I did some laundry.
I sat at a desk.
I clocked out of work soon after six.
I drove to Subway.
I ordered a foot long ham sandwich. I asked for mayo and mustard on one half, because the other half was going to be lunch the next day and I didn't want it to be soggy. The nice girl cut my sandwich in half, wrapped each separately, and put a T on the condiment less sammy for "tomorrow."
I came home.
I took Tucker out to pee.
He lifted his leg for the first time. He pees like a big boy now.
I called my mom.
I ate my sandwich.
I watched tv.
And here I am.


Whatever.

Steeeeeeve!

I dedicate this post to an honorable man. A man whose mission in life is to better the world, one lie detector test at a time.

Hey Shawty

Whoa, double post!

In the coming month I will be turning 24. That, matched with being totally broke (which is always when you want the most) has given birth to a B-day wish list of epic proportions. I'm all "Dadday, I want I want I want! Gimme Gimme Gimme!"
And, here it is:

Let's start with something I would never get, a Wii Fit: About $400.00

Sure, I already have two Polaroid instant cameras, but this one looks like the fuuutuuuureee.

So there you have it. Now you go get it.




Oh, P.S. I don't know how to enter pictures or links, so, this is really annoying for you.

Awaken the Beast!

Ok. It's time for things to change around here. No more going MONTHS between posts. I've got a brother to entertain!

I don't even remember where I left off. I think I quit with the excuse that Scrubs was on? Guess what, I don't even care that much for Scrubs. You were suckered. I just didn't want to type.

So, let's re-cap.

*We had Thanksgiving. Will came to Oregon with me. We watched the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade while bathing 6 adorable puppies.
*We got a puppy! His name is Tucker. He is a lot bigger than he used to be. Also, he just lost his two front teeth. Aww!
*I made a really good meatloaf.
*I bought a pizza and at a stop light it fell on the floor of my dirty car. Then, Will and I ate floor pizza.
*Flew home for Christmas break. Learned booze make for a great flight.
*Spent Christmas in the home town, trying to dodge any encounters with past classmates.
*My BFF Chelsea flew back to Boise with me for what was to be an epic New Years.
*I spent the ENTIRE time Chelsea was here puking due to a stomach flu. *Yes, that includes midnight 09/10. Boo.
*Went to my first Boise trash bar. Slow danced to a KC&JoJo with a man with one arm.
*HOT DANG I CLEANED MY ROOM!
*Other stuffs, other stuffs, wow this is boring.

So that's about it for the update. I think things will become more entertaining once I post everyday, and am able to remember what has happened.

UmOkBye.

The Crunch.

I was going to use this bout of inspiration to update on Boise's best smelling cult, Sentsy, but I thought I would use this time to do a little updating on my life for those close enough to care.

Things.
Things are working, and not working. Doing what they should and what they should not.
Life has been an ever steady pace. Thanksgiving was a six hour drive this year. I would say for the first year ever, but Eugene's college traffic pre-holiday has always been known to change three hour drives into seven. What did make this Thanksgiving different this year though was the new addition to Will and I's little home, our puppy, Tucker. Before the big trip I puppy proofed the house. Picking up wires and cords, cleaning, hiding shoes.

Ok guess what, Scrubs is on and I want to watch it, I will finish this later.

Suckers!
