Yeah, it's been a while since my last blog, but not to worry, for my life has not been that captivating. I still don't know anything about my test results, though I'm hoping no news is good news. I think they'd call by now if there were something really wrong, so I'm expecting the best. I'm not too worried about what might be wrong with me. I don't think it'll be that serious, but I would like to feel a bit better. :roll: I've been really exhausted lately. My back's been hurting, and I've felt sick to my stomach all day today. I've had better days, but then again, I've had MUCH worse.

I -really- don't feel like working tomorrow. I just want to get past the next few months and get back to school. I just want to finish.

I don't really have a Story of the Day today, so yeah, I'll skip it. Or even if I do, I just don't feel like typing it out. :lol:

Joke Du Jour: A guy walked into a bar one day and said to the barman, "Give me six double vodkas."
The barman says, "Wow! you must have had one hell of a day."
"Yes, I've just found out my older brother is gay."
The next day, the same guy came into the bar and asked for the same drinks. When the bartender asked what the problem was today the answer came back, "I've just found out that my younger brother is gay too!"
On the third day, the guy came into the bar and ordered another six double vodkas. The bartender said, "Jesus! Doesn't anybody in your family like women?"
The man downed the first drink and shook his head, "Yeah, my wife!"

Well now, doesn't life just suckity-doo-dah for me right now. Well, my trip to the eye doctor turned out to be worse than I thought it would. The doc said that I, indeed, had iritis in BOTH eyes now. :roll: However, since I have bilateral iritis, this means it's most likely chronic, which means it's seasonal, which means I will probably get this every year. :x The doctor also said that since it's bilateral, there's a good possibility that it's caused by something else, so I had to go get bloodwork and some x-rays done yesterday. I swear, I've never seen that many tubes to fill up in the lab. There were about 8 tubes to fill. :roll: She's checking for a whole buttload of different illnesses it could be, rheumatoid arthritis and lupus to name a couple. I'm really really scared right now. I have to wait a week before I find out anything, since that's when I'm going back to my eye doctor. I woke up with back pains this morning, and they've lasted all day. This is not a good sign, since she asked me only yesterday if I was having back pains, and they took back x-rays. Not only that, but after the x-rays were done, and the technician checked them to make sure they came out alright, the tech asked me if one side hurt worse than the other. :cry:

I went to Stephen's house this morning. He stayed home from work, 'cause his sinuses hurted. I brought him some little white powered doughnuts and chocolate milk. [Yeah, I know, not the best thing to eat and drink with sinus problems, but he likes it.] I take care of my baby when he's not feeling well. We just laid in his bed together for a little bit, while I cried, 'cause I'm scared. Even though he didn't say anything, it was still nice that he was there to comfort me. After I convinced myself that if I got up and did something I'd feel better, I got up and took a shower. It did make me feel a little better. When I came out in my towel, before I got dressed, me and Stephen :wink::wink:, which definitely made me feel better....well, until I had to leave. :cry: I didn't want to leave. I miss him too much, when either one of us leaves the other behind.

Story of the Day: My mom called me before I brought Lily to school to tell me to go over to her office after I dropped Lily off. So, I did. Turns out I've had a job since August 16th, but my parents never told me. :lol: I work for my parents. I work at their office while Lily's in school, and when she's not at school, at work at home. Basically, at home I'm a housekeeper-- cooking, cleaning, etc. At their office, I clean and answer phones, and will probably file. They pay me min. wage, and I work 30 hours a week. Since I'm not in school, I needed to have a way to still have health insurance, especially now with what's going on. So, I actually have a job. The second one in my life, and looky here, I'm working for my dad again. :lol::roll: With the money I make, I'll finally be able to pay for Lily's needs by myself. I have to pay for Lily and myself, so my parents don't have to.  Also, I have to save some of my income to pay for school.

Joke Du Jour: Little Johnny has to write a story about someone in his family that does something amazing. The next day, he returns and tells the class that his father eats lightbulbs.
"How do you know that?" asks his teacher.
"I heard him say it. He and Mom were in the bedroom and he said 'I'll only eat that thing if you turn out the light.'"

Today's Quote: Today's quote is presented by the fantabulous Mel Brooks: "Tragedy is when I cut my finger. Comedy is when you fall into an open sewer and die." :lol:

So, I've been going to the eye doctor a lot lately, because I have iritis in my left eye. I've been treating it, putting the drops in, being a good girl, well, in that aspect. :twisted: However, I woke up yesterday with my RIGHT eye having the same symptoms as my other eye did in the beginning. What the hell is this? A neverending cycle?? As if it wasn't bad enough having blurred vision all the time in my left eye, now it's gonna be in my right eye too! I have to go the eye doctor yet again today at 2:30, so we'll see what she says. :roll:

Well, my car has yet another problem. :roll: It has a huge antifreeze leak! So, my car has to go to the doctor too today. :cry: ~sigh~ Can I please start having problem-free days soon? I mean I've had this eye thing for about 2 weeks now....yeah, it's getting old already, and now it's starting up again on the other side. My car just needs to be fixed already! Geez!

Story of the Day: Okay, I sing a lot in the karaoke rooms in Yahoo chat, but there's never anything out of the ordinary. Well, this guy invited me to sing in a karaoke competition on Sat., Sept. 18 at 7 pm [central time, that is]. Each person has to have 3 songs to sing. I told the guy I'd ask Stephen to do it too! We'll see how this pans out.

Today's Joke: [Okay, well since everyone likes jokes better, and it's hard to find positive notes EVERYDAY, I just changed this section from "Today's Positive Note" to "Today's Joke", which, like I said, is much more enjoyable.] A drunken man staggered into a Catholic church, sat down in the Confessional and said nothing.
The priest is waiting and waiting and waiting.
The priest coughs to attract the drunk man's attention, but still the man says nothing.
The priest then knocks on the wall three times in a final attempt to get the man to speak.
Finally the drunk replies, ''No use knockin,' pal. There's no paper."

Quote of the Day: Today's quote comes from Dr. Sigmund Freud [yeah, the horny psychologist]: "America is the most grandiose experiment the world has seen, but, I am afraid, it is not going to be a success." :lol:

~E~

My Events: Well, I got my new glasses Saturday afternoon, and I'm loving them! Woo-hoo! My mom says they make me look studious, my little sister says I look like a librarian [still haven't figured out if that's good or not], and Stephen tells me I look sexy and sophisticated in them. I think I'll stick with his image. :wink:

Yesterday, in church, Stephen sang You Raise Me Up by Josh Groban. Superb job, like I knew he'd do. Way to go, baby! :kiss:

I talked to Joe last night and today. He's finally moving here from MT. He's leaving tomorrow, and since he's driving, he won't be here until Friday. I can't wait! I'm PUMPED!! :dance:

Story of the Day: Actually this happened only about 3 hours ago. My sister, my daughter, and I were trying to decide on what we were going to eat for supper[Which, mind you, if we actually make a definitive choice, is a major feat]. My daughter, at 4, always has to put her two cents in as well. My sister, knowing this, spoke before my daughter could, saying,"I swear, if you say you want chicken nuggets and french fries...." to which my daughter replied,"I want chick nuggets, french fries, and a DRINK." My sister then replies,"You have chicken nuggets everyday!" to which, my intelligent witty child says,"Well, if I want it again, I want it again." At only 4 years old, my daughter never seizes to amaze me.

Today's Positive Note: We have another joke for today's note. Some might find it a little gross, but it's funny as hell nonetheless: The owner of a drug store walks in to find a guy leaning heavily against a wall. The owner asks the clerk, "What's with that guy over there by the wall?" The clerk says, "Well, he came in here this morning to get something for his cough. I couldn't find the cough syrup, so I gave him an entire bottle of laxative." The owner says, "You idiot! You can't treat a cough with laxatives!" The clerk says, "Oh yeah? Look at him, he's afraid to cough!"

Quote of the Day:  Today's quote is by Rita Mae Brown: "The statistics on sanity are that one out of every four Americans are suffering from some form of mental illness. Think of your three best friends. If they're okay, then it's you." 

My Events: Well, I got my car fixed yesterday. It's all better, my cute little car. Ahhhh, A/C in my car. Yeah, seems the 50 billion things wrong with my car could be fixed by replacing just one thing - the cooling fan motor thingy, yeah, whatever it's called.  Whoever thought that putting A/C in vehicles was a good idea better be going to heaven, if they're not already there, because God knows he/she deserves it.

I'm gonna get new glasses today, thank the Lord above. I hope I can find some cute ones, since I can't wear contact lenses for 6 whole weeks. Not only for that reason, but my prescription is all wrong and these glasses are so fugly, yes fugly. They better have thinner lenses by now.  I have the worst eyes ever. My eyeglass lenses are so thick that when you look at my face while I have them on, the area of skin around my eyes is seemingly a darker color than the rest of my face, and I look sorta Chinese, well, as much as a blonde-haired, blue-eyed white girl can. Damn eye doctors think they know everything. :roll:

Story of the Day: Why is it that the things you want to happen the most in your life will seemingly never happen in the near future, while those things that you despise and dread happen in a matter of milliseconds? Stephen and I have been together for 3 years, 8 months, and 6 days, yet marriage seems a millenium away, even though both of us want it so badly we can taste it. [People always say that so negatively. However, I've never tasted marriage...maybe it tastes like Taco Bell, in which case, tasting it might not be such a bad thing.] timing is, indeed, everything. I guess Stephen and I are just seemingly always on the bad end of it. :roll:

Today's Positive Note: Today's note, kids, teaches us that that we shouldn't go through life with a catcher's mitt on both hands. We need to be able to throw something back.

Quote of the Day: Our quote of the day is one of my favorite quotes, which is presented to us by a Mr. Albert Einstein: "Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former."

~E~

Okay, so here's the deal: never done the blogging thing, but I'm diggin' it. So for those of you who enjoy my blogs, "Y'all come back now, ya hear?!", and for those of you who don't, you're not worthy of my matriculations anyway, you bloody bastards!

So, today's Friday [woopity-doo], though that means nothing to me, since I have no job, and I'm not in school. Just means I get to see my Stephen soon.

Story of the day: Yesterday, I went to the eye doctor, right?  Right, and on the way home, my car starts making strange noises and producing foul smells.....hmmm.....bad gas maybe? Anyway, my A/C's been iffy for about a week now, which absolutely sucks in Louisiana in friggin' satans' asshole, otherwise known as August. However, my "check gages" light comes on, and I look over. Hmm, out of gas? Nope, of course it's not that simple. My car is overheating. So, this morning, at an unGodly hour I might add, I was forced to bring my car to the mechanic. After I tell him the 50 billion things [yes, 50 billion things] wrong with my car, he tells me,"Yeah, we'll call you after we've checked out the whole situation. I hope it'll be a good call, 'cause it's not sounding too good right now." Yeah, that's comforting. So it's been about 4 hours, and I still haven't heard anything. Again I say, yeah, that's comforting.

Today's Positive Note: Today's note shall be a joke:A man walks into a bar, sits down, and orders a drink. "Hey, nice tie!" comes out of nowhere. He looks up at the bartender to see if he had said anything, but since he was on the other side of the bar the man just ignores it. "Hey! Nice shirt!" The man looks up but, again, the bartender is engaged elsewhere. "Hey! Nice suit!" The man then calls the bartender over and asks him if he keeps talking to him. "It's not me, it's the complimentary peanuts."
