awkward

ever noticed that when people are sick or hurt and they start talking about it, they never shut up? they have a million things wrong with them and they want to tell you, in detail, every freaking thing thats wrong. 
i can't stand people like that. 
so i'm not telling you what's wrong with me. all i will tell you is that my back is outta wack. it hurts, so fell free to feel sorry for me. you have my permission. 
i'm going to the chriropractor. a very cute chiropractor i must say :) i'm on therapies that pull by spine, put me awkward positions, and pulse electronic currents into my back. that's my favorite. it feels like getting a massage from two people with magical hands at the same time... is it me or was that an awkward sentence for you to read too?
eehh who's blog are you reading? think about it. there is gonna be some awkwardness somewhere. it might as well deal with a cute doctor ;)

hospitals, viagra, x-rays

should i start with:
 my mom being in the hospital,
the guy in my acting class telling me to "have my way" with him,
the viagra commercial i saw today,
or my sister almost ruining the x-ray machine at the hospital?? 
oh the possibilities are endless! well.. they are kinda endless. I mean I could talk about all of these things and a few more and still probably run out of things to talk about. Imagine that, me, running out of things to talk about. CRAZY! 


Ok, important things first. Mom. 
Remember this?
Well she finally had the surgery to have the arteries cleaned out.  Despite the fact that there was a 2% chance of her having a stroke on the table and receiving massive complications, the surgery went fine. No stroke. She came out zoned out. However since there was a slight risk, today worry just kinda wrapped around me like a tight sweater, a turtleneck sweater. I dropped her off at the hospital before class, and all through classes I kept playing the "what if" game.
Today has been stressful to say the least. I hate stressful days, but then again who likes them? 
When my mom was safe and sound in the room, me and my little sister went back there to check on her and lil sis thought she would write a nice message on the dry erase board. Well the first mistake was that the marker she picked up was not a dry erase marker, but a PERMANENT marker. Second mistake was that the dry erase board was not a dry erase board, but an X-RAY viewer....err whatever they call them. but you get the picture. permanent marker on an x-ray machine!! OOOMMGG!! 
But she was light on her feet. She sprung the germ-x out of her pocket and cleaned it off. Surprisingly most of it came off. You can see a tiny smudge of "get well" but, hopefully they won't be viewing x-rays anytime soon. and hopefully they won't tag us as the culprits. 
whew... never a dull moment with us, not even in ICU. Thank God mom was knocked out, or she would have had a stroke then. 


now how does viagra fit in to this? 
I was chilling in the waiting room.. all alone, watching tv. This commercial comes on, a guy on a sail boat gabbing on about sailing and then BAM something about erectial disfunction! and as if on cue, two old men come into the waiting room! being with two old men in a waiting room with a viagra commercial blaring makes me about as comfortable as.. well to tell you the truth, it doesn't make me comfortable at all. 


I'll save the acting class guy story for later...

better late than never?

so today classes started back! i feel smarter already. 
however.. it was hardly sailing smooth. 
as if waking up on monday at 7:30 A.M (which is really cutting it close, i should be getting up earlier) isn't bad enough, running late is. 
running late is pretty bad, but having a decent hair day makes up for that, right? you just plan to drive a little faster, right? ok, that's fine and dandy. BUT when you are running late with a decent hair day and you walk outside to find it raining.. that's when it gets bad. 
and of course it gets worse. i get to school 5 minutes late, only to find that i have to drive all around the world to find a parking spot. i finally found one in Egypt. being late is even worse than bad enough.. try being fat and running up a hill and a flight of stairs, now it's kinda terrible. 
so my kinda terrible morning is in full swing and i'm standing outside my first class, that i'm TEN MINUTES LATE to. i'm creeping in the window taking in the twenty five people who made in to class on time and the teacher going over the syllabi. having a heated debate with myself: to go in, or no to go in, that is the question. 
i bit the bullet and went in. a little tap tap on the door and every single head looked at me. the teacher didn't stop talking and of course the only empty chairs were in the back of the freaking classroom! 
"oooo the who-manity" (the grinch, anybody?) i'm glad i didn't eat breakfast because i probably would've thrown up all over the sour puss next to me. and she would have deserved it because when i sat down she acted as if the scum of the earth just kissed her. geez girl, get over it. i was late. i don't have the chicken pox.

i hope she's right ;)

slippers and coffee and book reviews

starting the morning off right, in my slippers and drinking a cup of joe.
my mom religiously puts sweet n low in her coffee, so when i started drinking, i too used it. but now that i have realized the after taste is disgusting.. i stick to just creamer. mmm it's delicious :) 


yesterday i worked for about two hours because my boss's mom fell and had to go to the ER for x-rays yesterday afternoon. talk about easing back into work. today, however, i feel like we'll pound out a good 6 hours. my bank account desperately needs them...
for some reason, i have a netflix account. (even though i'm back to my normal self and read more than i watch movies or tv) and i always forget that at the end of the month it sneaks out 8 bucks out of my account.(which is totally a cosmic joke, because the end of the month is also the "time of the month. no wonder i'm ready to commit suicide)  this month really sucked because i only had 8 bucks in my account and when i tried to swipe my card i almost had a heart attack when it declined. i checked when i got home.. sure enough netflix left me with .41 to my name. whew, i'm a broke hoe. 


but.. God always come through, doesn't he? because that day i got my Christmas present from grandmaw and it was handsomely green. 


if you like crime/mysteries/law novels, you should really check out Lisa Scottoline. I've read 2 of her books, and I going to start a third today.  Last night I finished "Daddy's Girl". (the name really throws off the actually story, I think) It's about a law professor  who gets involved in shady ongoings at a prison and intertwined in all of that she falls in love a fellow professor. It really was a page turner, and FYI I try not to use that term, but this book had a good level of suspense. The last 10 pages were the best plot twist ever! It made me mad, but it was good. *SPOILER ALERT! the hot professor turned out to be one of the bad guys! since you probably won't read it for yourself, I figured I'd go ahead and tell you. 


What's your favorite book, or can you even pick just one?

I'm not a russian spy!

wow.. there for a second it was like i forgot i had a blog. 
Christmas is over with! now.. let's move on.


WAIT! 
i know what you're waiting for... 
who won the present contest? *drumroll*
MOM!! 
we all knew that was coming.. but i still wanted to announce it.
 Good job mommy, and thank you ever so much for the amazing gifts! 
She took the lead, hands down, with the record player. But then kicked the game into overtime by surprising me with a Kindle. 
whew.. ok. now it's over. 


i took personal time to reflect on 2011, however, i don't feel the need to go over my reflections with you. that what this whole freaking blog is about.. you going on the journey with me, so i don't have to boo whoo at the end of the year. you can just read previous posts. also i didn't bother with making a resolution, as i noticed many people did not do this year. i think everybody is starting to realize that's a very dumb thing to do because by Feb most people have already stopped going to the gym and smoked 20 packs of ciggs, so the whole resolution is down the toilet. 


not having to go to school or work has been amazing, but all good things must come to an end. i go back to work tomorrow and school starts on Monday. Which i'm excited about: new semester, new classes ( acting class!!), new people.. and by new people i mean new boys to gawk at ;D
