It's been a while...

Wow...I remember I was supposed to rant about that virus, but I think everyone heard that already. So forget it. I've got better stuff!

Sent my two left shoes a while ago. FedEx says they arrived in California over a week ago. I'm supposed to get an e-mail when they process my order. How long does it take? I want my shoes! >_<

However! It seems that those pants have shrunk slightly! Now I seem to be able to wear them with regular sneakers. I still need black sneakers, though. My old black ones are, well, old. Ah, well. At least I can wear those pants now if I want!

Patty came home! Yay! She's back living at her parents' house again, and her fiance is living with her in her old room. Strange arrangement, but luckily that house and her room are pretty darn big.

Nice to have her home again. Yay, dancing buddy! We'll probably go dancing this Friday. Buzz Club, woot! I went to her place just to hang around on Sunday, and stayed for supper. Yummy chicken from the backyard BBQ ^_^. Then we watched Jeepers Creepers. I like that movie. Although my recent SR obsession made me think of Raziel every time I saw the guy's wings, and Kain every time we saw the guy's demon-looking face.

Yes, my latest obsession. Man, I can't get enough of it! I still have little desire to play the game myself, although I'd love to watch someone who really knows what they're doing go at it. I've been collecting parodies, pics, screengrabs, fanart...anything Legacy of Kain-related. Some of the fanart is simply incredible. And Raziel and Kain are awesome. I love their voices. I'm still trying to remember who Michael Bell used to play in G1 TFs, though...eh, I'll figure it out sooner or later.

Or I'll just Google it and look it up.

Here we go. He played: Bombshell, First Aid, Prowl, Scrapper, Sideswipe, and Swoop.

Hm...aw, I don't want to equate that annoying voice "Me Swoop, no see nothing!" with Raziel's kick-ass voice! Ah, well. I think I remember Sideswipe sounding like a typical young guy. I don't remember much of Prowl's voice. He had no lines in the movie.

But! Back to stuff. I really haven't updated in a long time. I think that's partly Heywood's fault. Since I got him as a new e-mail buddy, it's like I barely have time to do anything else cause he responds so fast! Quite amusing, though. He's a funny guy ^_^.

I get to see Miss Saigon tomorrow night! Oh baby yeah! I've been waiting ten years for this! But wah, Da said he read that they won't have the helicopter or the cadillac! Space problem or something. No fair! Oh well, not like that's all I'm seeing it for.

So no RP for me tomorrow night, but that's okay. It's Broadway, dude! Now what am I gonna wear?

Today kinda sucked. I had my endoscopy and, just as predicted, the nurse wasn't able to find a vein to stick in an IV so I could have the wonderful drugs that would make it easier. She tried...stuck the needle in a rather strange place on my arm that's still kinda sore right now...but no luck. She decided that I could probably do without the drugs, and it certainly wasn't worth all the trouble it would take to try and find a vein. Besides, apparently Granny did this thing without drugs when she was 99, so I shouldn't have a problem.

So they froze my throat with this nasty-tasting spray and I had to try to choke down the tube. Ouch! See, the drugs help suppress the gag reflex. Mine was out in full force. I must have been gagging every few seconds. At some points I felt almost like I couldn't breathe. The doctor couldn't ever get it down on the first try, and they had to give me a slight break and then try again. And man, the freeze-spray wears off quickly! I had to get some more of it before the second try.

They got it on the second try. Man, that thing felt absolutely huge in my throat! I was still gagging the whole time. Then for some reason they had to blow air through the thing into my stomach.

Oh my god...

My stomach cramped about a thousand times worse than it does when I eat. The nurse held my hand to stop me from clutching my stomach the whole time. That was painful. It felt like forever before they finally pulled the thing out again and it was over. I coughed for like half an hour afterward, and my throat was a bit sore.

Everything was absolutely normal. All that for nothing...except to say that we have indeed exhausted every test. Now I have one last-ditch set of pills to try. *sigh* We'll see.

My tummy still hurts. Man, it hurt so bad all of today. *hugs Spongebob plushie* Stupid tummy! Leave me alone for once!

But at least I walked out of there under my on power. Everyone else was getting all drugged up. Once it was over, it was over. Except of course for my sore tummy. Maybe the drugs would have helped with that. Not that I wouldn't have helped it once the drugs wore off...but a little time without it would have been nice.

Why do I have to be such a mutant with no veins? Grr!

*sigh*

My voice is still croaky. At least my throat isn't sore any more, though. Well, maybe a little. But meh.

The pity factor got me my favourite dinner and new film for my camera. I'm gonna have someone take some pics of me so I have some up-to-date ones to show people. Why show anyone how I looked when I was 30 pounds heavier? No thanks. I asked Ma for a digital camera for my birthday. That'll make everything easier.

I want a new colour ink cartridge so I can print Soul Reaver pics to put on my walls.

Remixes of classical pieces are fun. After watching that guy on that arcade dance machine in Lake George--OMG, he was amazing, how the hell do people do that!--I decided I had to have the Vivaldi's Four Seasons remix that he was dancing to. Well, now I've got four different ones. I'm pretty sure I've got the one that was used, but unfortunately it doesn't seem to be a very good copy. Oh well.

Back to RPing, and it looks like Heywood just e-mailed me again...

Miss Saigon tomorrow!

That is all.
