Hello all! Just a note to say I'm alive and well...although very sore. The operation was on Tuesday and I was in the hospital until Friday. It went well and they got all the stones out. My mom got to see them. She said they were surprisingly big and one was almost in a pyramid shape! The doctor says he thinks that's the one that was causing the ( Read more... )

Well I had an interesting weekend. Friday night and Saturday I was in a lot of pain with my kidney. I finally called my urologist on Saturday and he got me directly admitted. Turns out a stone had moved and was "blocking" shall we say. He gave me two choices...a tube in my back to help drain my kidney or the stint. I chose the tube! He also said ( Read more... )

I saw this skit on TV a long time ago. I found an mp3 for it, but it didn't say where it was from! I want to say SCTV?? Is that right? Anyone know? I just remember dying when I saw it, it was so funny. And it still is :-)

EDIT: Never mind! I guess The Frantics IS a comedy group and they did have something air on TV once. So I ( Read more... )

I have noticed that I have been becoming meaner and meaner every year. I used to have a lot of patience for people. I used to give more and not worry so much about myself. I have realized that I really have become selfish lately and I can really be a bitch sometimes.
I am trying to think of how I changed so much. I have just become so cynical lately ( Read more... )

Well...I FINALLY DID IT! I'm a NaNoWriMo winner! It took me four tries, but I did it! :-D I would post my little win icons, but for some reason I can't upload anything from work anymore. :-/
So for a quick update on what's been going on:
* Thanksgiving was nice. Spent it at my sister-in-law's parents house. I spent most of the time tending to the two ( Read more... )

HAPPY BIRTHDAY VIERRAN!!! :-) :-)
Do you have anything special planned today? Or are you already doing it (the time zone thing) or have you already done it? Are you already suffering from a hangover? Are you passed out? ;-) Hope you have/had/are having a good time!!

I'm at 23,560 words right now. Just 1,445 short of the goal for today. I plan to catch up before I go to sleep. Wow...I might actually do this! Fourth time's the charm I guess! :-)

Just wanted to drop a line and say hello to everyone. I miss all of you guys and can't wait to have the time to get back into LJ again.
I turn 30 this Wednesday (YIKES!!) and it's made me take a serious look at my life and situation. This week I will be meeting with a loan officer and talking about what she can do for me about buying a house. I even ( Read more... )

Hey everyone! That is, if I still have a Friends list! :-) As you know I've been away for a while. I still plan on being away more. I just needed a break. I got really burned out on LJ. I plan to be back again in December after Nanowrimo. I've just had way too many things going on lately...my grandpa died, I've been down with a sinus infection, ( Read more... )

Uncle Juddy was finally found in Austin! He and his wife got to chest high deep in water in their house. They haven't had much sleep at all since Monday. They somehow got to an airport and were airlifted to Austin. We don't know any details about what they went through this week or how in the world they got to an airport. I'm just so relieved! So ( Read more... )
