cancer, what??
So uh, my dad told my sister and me today that he might have cancer. He said he had a swollen lymph node that was bothering him and the doctor wanted to biopsy it, then the doctor said it'd be just as easy to surgically remove it, so they did. When they took a biopsy, they found cancerous cells, but not lymphoma, so it's not something that would be ( Read more... ) -

Classes started this week. Parking is hell, as I expected, now that they've started construction and closed an entire parking lot. My earliest class is at 11. I still have to be on campus by 9 just to get a parking space. The one semester I succeed in avoiding 9am classes, and I still don't get to sleep in. God. Dammit. But of course, that's just ( Read more... ) -

I went to go work with the dog today. It was a lot of fun. They family lives out in a rural area and have a hidden driveway. I ended up accidentally busting out one of my tail lights on a mailbox while turning around on a road while trying to find their house. This is not a good week for my car ( Read more... ) -
decisions, decisions
I'm starting to vaguely consider the idea of going back to live with my dad once my lease is up in May. I'm sick of having to contend with shitty neighbors all the time. It would be considerably cheaper, too. There's a list of both pros and cons for this, and I don't need to make a decision any time soon, but I'm beginning to think that I should at ( Read more... ) -
And the lord said to them, "Rejoice and be glad, for I give unto you an xbox 360..."
omgomgomgomgomg!!!!!laksjglkjsfghlsfkej!! XD I finally got the 360 today. First game I bought for it- Chronicles of Riddick: Assault on Dark Athena *squee* Although the gameplay is in similar fashion to that of the first Riddick game, it is better than its forerunner. More difficult, with more puzzle-like navigation (sadly, no maps on this one, ( Read more... ) -

My dad and Mark and I went out to dinner tonight, then across the street to a martini/cigar lounge. It was awesome. My dad has decided that this needs to be an annual thing, done between Christmas and New Year's. I'm all for it. I got to sample their drinks, and I got a small souvenir from my second round (blue glow stick with Hpnotic on it). Work ( Read more... ) -

Grades are in today. A- in German and I managed an A- in Neuroscience, so I must've done really well on the final because I had a B+ before the final. And I got an A in Intro to Counseling and my Buddhism class. I didn't get straight solid A's but I still technically got all A's this semester, so I'm really happy about that because I haven't been ( Read more... ) -
So excited!!!
I'm gonna get an xbox 360!!!!! Getting it next week!! I got enough gift cards to cover the 360 (not including tax)- actually, one of the cards is a gas card but in reality it's still free money, which means the money I save by using the card can be used for something else (i.e., the 360). I need to wait until the 30th, when I have more money, to ( Read more... ) -
GO SEE AVATAR!!!
Saw Ron today. He thinks I have a form of PTSD because of all the abuse from my mother. It doesn't surprise me. When talking about PTSD, most people (including clinicians, it seems) tend automatically think of soldiers, and forget that they are not the only population that can develop PTSD. Soldiers definitely make up the majority of those who have ( Read more... )
