dying, or not dying

\ by

had the echo and xray today. the lady doing the echo said not to expect bad news. so while that is good, that doesn’t explain daily chest pains. it has been better since i stopped the antibiotics for 2 days (though I started them again and there was a little pain, but not the last few days), so maybe that was it. or if it was pericarditis caused by a virus, it has run its course and left. so it looks like i’m not dying. haha.

i am freezing tho, and it’s going to be a whole 7 degrees on thursday. yay! hooray for huge gas bills!

*edit* oh yeah, i spent a bunch of money at cafepress the other day on Chairman Meow posters, and cafepress accidentally sent me an extra one. woo free stuff!

slap chop!

\ by

so i’m watching tv, and the slap chop commercial comes on. the thing sorta looks neat, but i don’t know if it’s really going to make me “have an exciting life now”…and then hold on, he very clearly says, “you’re going to love my nuts.” LOL oh man

well it appears i don’t have a whole lot to say the last few weeks.

christmas. spent christmas eve with my parents as usual. no detroit this year even though i was off of work both days. parents got me a 19″ hdtv for my bedroom and a roomba. ha kitty doesn’t seem to like the roomba. he watched it for a while but when it turned towards him he took off. i guess there will be no roomba riding for kitty like that youtube video. shame. christmas day adr1 and i had dinner with my parents and just hung around. i think. christmas doesn’t mean a whole lot to non religious adults.

ended up having new years eve/day off as well. amazing! eric and tiffany invited adr1 and i over, so after hitting up the mall and dinner at fridays we drove out to rochester and finally got to see their house. only took 2 plus years haha. just a little get together with lots of hockey watching and just hanging out. the drive wasn’t bad at all, just a little snow on the way there. new years day adr1 came over to watch the chicago winter classic and the sabres game. lazy lazy.

i guess the biggest thing is that i’ve been having chest pains most nights since about thanksgiving. it’ll start hurting before work, hurt all through work, and hurt til i go to bed. then it started happening during the day too, so presumably not stress. had a drs appt yesterday where they did an ekg which the machine said was abnormal but the dr looked at and said was fine. i do have some very common abnormality, right branch bundle block or something, which doesn’t cause problems. but i have to have a chest xray and echo next week. as i was leaving he came out and had looked up side effects of my antibiotics…even tho i’ve taken them for 2 years or so, they can cause pericarditis so he said to stop taking them for a week, take 3 ibu-800s a day, and see if it stops. not taking it last night seems to already have made a difference, so maybe that’s the problem. of course stopping them is going to make my face break out 😛

and my car is still not fixed. haven’t heard from the guy since xmas (yes i have his number but haven’t called him either). now everyone thinks he’s going to screw me over. i don’t care that much about fixing it, but i know my parents will get on my case if i just let it go and not fix it. i’m certainly not paying for it, the car is 7.5 years old and it’s really not that bad. or maybe buy one of those as seen on tv car paint repair kits hah.

sabres played early today and now i’m tired. supposed to explore tomorrow with alex and maybe chris. i hope it’s not frigid. then more boring life. winter is slow haha

the shamwow commercial says you spend $20 on paper towels each month, which makes buying the shamwow worth it…WHAT? who spends $20 a month on paper towels!??!?!?!?!?! if i spend $20 a year on paper towels THAT would be alot!

my friend at work’s house burned down on christmas. SUCK! total loss. i guess it was started by the fireplace somehow. now i don’t want to get into a theological argument here, i don’t believe and you won’t change that but…how can someone believe in god when on the holiest of days he lets your house burn down…

if you go to yahoo weather right now for north tonawanda, it says “blizzard” hahahahaha i’ve never seen that before. oh man 5-8 inches of more snow. i gave up shoveling. i barely have enough room to get out of the driveway. mom came over and shoveled too while i was sitting here and didn’t even know it. this sucks.

friends? please.

i really wonder why some people from high school friend me on facebook…i got one today from todd brosius who hasn’t spoken to me possibly ever…at least not since elementary school. so it’s like, why bother? other people i actually was friends with makes sense, but this last one just really confused me. i also got one from my 2nd grade best friend nicole who went a little (a lot) nuts and juvenile deliquent haha. she was really not right, and the family had alot of issues. but she’s still hanging around here it seems, took me a while to figure out who she was (married name threw me off). thought she’d be dead or in jail by now hahha and then i keep getting a request from james woodring who i 1.never ever liked 2. used to sexually harass me in elementary school. why would i want to “be friends”. i keep ignoring the request and he won’t give up.

winter sucks

oh man, you don’t realize how big your driveway is until you have to shovel 5 inches of snow off it. omg i’m so sore, my shoulders feel like falling off.

in other news, sabres game tonight. we lost. then it gets better….car got hit after the game while in traffic. huge dent in the bumper but it then popped itself out. the guy who hit me? a player from work ha. so it doesn’t look too bad now that it’s popped out, just paint issues. he’s got a guy who does body work and we’re going to take it friday. arg.

i decided i hate our governor. his list of new taxes is pretty ridiculous. an “obese” tax of 18% on non-diet beverages…um i’m not fat, if i want to drink high sugar crap i should be allowed to without paying an extra 18%. tax on farmers who own cows..$175 per cow because they fart and produce methane. farmers don’t make money as it is and now you’re going to charge them for each cow they own?! tax on downloaded entertainment like music and movies. tax on sporting and entertainment tickets. we pay enough surcharges already, fuck you! another .25 gas tax (on top of .20 we already have making our gas prices higher than other states). then of course, my employers are livid because he wants the natives to charge taxes to white cigarette buyers on the reservations (they, in turn threaten to put toll booths on the expressway through the rez, and charge $20 per car…i’m waiting for the tire fires to start up again haha). tax on cable and satellite tv…cuz we don’t pay enough to them yet either. and i can’t find it in the news, but jenn said he is going to cut funding to education, and cut homeowners STAR rebates. thank you mr patterson.
