so... I wish I could doodle like that....
News:
A lot of people describe Scalzi’s Old Man's War novels as military science fiction, but I would classify its sequel Zoë’s Tale as a space opera. It’s a story about, well, Zoë, a teenage girl whose parents are invited to take leadership roles in building a colony on a new planet. Zoë is an enthusiastic member of the group sent to colonize Roanoke, despite the risks—and the risks are considerable even before the political machinations of greater powers boil to the surface.

phew! So apparently it's not appendicitis but a cyst on my innards (sorry if that's TMI) the doctor says take lots of pain killer and wait it out. 
always nice when that's the cure. so on a scale of 1-10 (ten being delivering babies) I'm at about a 6. BUT I WILL PREVAIL.
Nothing will keep me from my 50K...
well, except maybe sitting here writing to you guys!

I'm at 47K and am suffering from a possible case of appendicitis... we'll see what the blood tests say. So I've drugged myself up with advil and am typing away in case I have to go to the hospital. Hopefully I'm okay so I can finish!

I like the idea of keeping it contained.... I think it might be safer that way, we don't want it tainting the water.

I bought this journal at deseretbook.com and was really excited to get it, since I'm all out on my current one, so I wait... and wait... and two weeks after they say they sent it it gets here and it's TINY! I mean come on it cost me $15 and it's not even full size, which the reviews were really deceptive about. I'm seriously annoyed cause now I'm stuck with this stupid journal that won't even work for how I go through mine.
but that's nothing as bad as the car, we just had that happen, in 2 months we bought 4 new tires, new brakes and whatever the thing is that's below the brakes.... I told him to go get those checked out

My daughter a few months ago (she was 5) drank about a half a cup of Mineral Oil. Does everyone here know what a half a cup of mineral oil'll do to your bowels?
I do.
I do.

The Thursday after Thanksgiving I have to go into the dentist to have a crown put on, they also are thinking they'll have to do a crown lengthening procedure....
this means they have to go in and cut back my jaw bone so it won't rub up against the crown
I'm actually really scared about this. Anyone wanna trade!

Spriggan...
Yellow lover sounds better than orange lover anyway.
My husband, who doesn't really care at all, gave his opinion (since I made him) he says the white ones better too. Although he called it silver, which made me chuckle since we're on the topic of color identification. He also said it looks like she's smoking.

Yes, I figured that was what you did. I just thought it was, you know, against your code of ethics to call them crazy.
course, now that I said that I know, it makes me sound like I'm crazy too, which I'm not.
Shh! Quiet, He can't hear you... No! I'm not going to type that... I said No!
