    Roadside assitance recommendation
    I had an excellent experience with Highway Heroes today and want to recommend them. They were quick and efficient! I know they service the north mopac toll road area (seems some services won't assist you on a toll road).

    Beer ?
    Question for my beer drinking friends. I want to have a friend pick up some beer at a microbrewery for another friend. How long will it last in my fridge? I will be several months between seeing the two. If it will go bad...I don't want to do it... Since I don't drink it, I don't have a clue..

    People think they are honest...
    and for the most part they are. Except when it comes to judging people by their looks. People will say all the time that they don't "judge a book by its cover" but more often than not, they are lying to themselves and the people they are talking to. Ask yourself... are you really being honest when you say you don't judge someone by their looks? Be honest with yourself and others about the answer...

    No this is not brought on by any recent events in my life it is just something that festers and bubbles to the top often.

    Has anyone ever done something so horrible to you that "I'm sorry" couldn't fix it?

    Yes... and he refused to explain to boot.

    Doc visit
    Spot is still the same size. Give it another 2 months and look again.

    Laryngitis for 3 weeks. He is not sure but is hoping one of the new meds did that. Trying to see if I can get off of it. Kids are going to be surprised Tues. when I still cannot talk.

    Coughing fits have slowed. Just coughing up lots of phlegm now.

    Throat really drys out.

    So basically still no clue what is wrong.

    Went to dentist to get mouth guard fitted. Have to call her...it makes me gag sometimes. Have to wear it because all of the stress in my life is causing me to lock my jaw in a bad position.

    That's all.

    You took my hand
    You showed me how
    You promised me you'd be around
    Uh huh
    That's right
    I took your words
    And I believed
    In everything
    You said to me
    Yeah huh
    That's right

    If someone said three years from now
    You'd be long gone
    I'd stand up and punch them out
    Cause they're all wrong
    I know better
    Cause you said forever
    And ever
    Who knew

    Remember when we were such fools
    And so convinced and just too cool
    Oh no
    No no
    I wish I could touch you again
    I wish I could still call you friend
    I'd give anything

    When someone said count your blessings now
    'fore they're long gone
    I guess I just didn't know how
    I was all wrong
    They knew better
    Still you said forever
    And ever
    Who knew

    No news...
    more x-rays, more drugs and I now have a whole panel of phumys stumped... spot is still there. No change. Still coughing but not as bad.

    Not sure how I feel about
    the fact my doc. spending his evening comparing and studying my xrays and CTs. On one hand it is nice to know he is going the extra mile...on the other it is a bit unsettling to know he is that puzzled. The upside is that he said he is not remotely ready to consider an open lung biopsy. Due to where spot is, he is not sure if the other kind would be at all effective. For now he is doubling my meds. and I see him again soon. That is all I know.

    water water everywhere...when will the mold follow?
    I opened the door to my room at school today at 6:15am to be greeted by about 1.5 inches of water. Seems a pipe under my suitemate's sink burst sometime last night. I know it was last night because I worked yesterday until 5:30 pm.I got lucky in that nothing of mine really got wet. The fridge did but just the bottom of it and it still works. Everything else was off the floor.

    About 1/4th of the floor had standing water in both rooms and about a 5 ft radius of the carpet in front of the rooms.

    They came in and vacuumed up the visible water and fixed the pipe. I am worried that is not enough though. We have floor to ceiling cabinets in our rooms and in my room the water was seeping out from under the cabinets all day long and I think the rug in front of the rooms was getting wetter. They never brought fans to start drying things and I wonder how effective a fan is going to be at drying out under the cabinets anyway. They put in another call to the plumber because I said I did not feel all the leeks were fixed as it was a steady stream seeping from under my cabinets all day.

    I did not actually get the kids into the room until 11:30 so the day was shot to hell for teaching. No biggie.

    I am now wondering when I should start worrying about mold. They have already closed one room in a different area of campus due to mold so it is in the school... I made it clear to the office that I was worried about it. I guess I will start carting my things home...I cannot afford to have them taken due to mold damage.

    food for thought...
    my therapist says I should stop protecting those who do not deserve it.

    In other news...the results are still inconclusive. More on the 8th hopefully.

    Contrast CT
    inconclusive. More tests soon. I should find out tomorrow.

    Step one...
    more CTs and contrast xrays. That is all I know right now. I have gotten sick but we think it is more related to the ragweed than anything else.

    heart scan
    Some of you know I had a heart CT done recently. While it is still very broken the heart is physically fine. They did find a mass in my left lung. I will not know how we are going to proceed until sometime next week. I cannot tell my family until I know something more concrete so I will be facing this alone.

    If you want to know how someone is...
    ask them directly. If you ask someone else, they are likely to either not know the real answer or not tell you the real answer.

    Life just sucks...
    nothing like pouring a gallon of salt into a gaping wound to remind you of this.

    It is just the reality of the cause and effect of the situation.

    Bye dear friend. Celsea 5/5/1992 - 5/7/2007
    Celsea came into my life when I met Michael. I love them both very deeply. She was a part of him and so dear to him. I hurt for myself and I hurt for him that she is gone.

    I will miss you sweet girl.

    Some beautiful words about Celsea

    I actually have a picture of myself that I like
    so I will have a user pic. I always maintained I would not have one because I did not feel I wanted to be identified by some random picture of something...but this is me and I am pretty damn cool.
