Well, I guess this is a good-bye letter of sorts. My dissatisfaction with the site in general has been steadily growing, and I'm not as excited to see the sets anymore. It's getting far too mainstream for me and doesn't have the attraction it once did.
I have met some wonderful people through here, and hope to continue the great friendships I have made. If you guys still want to reach me, I'm here on MySpace. I love you guys!

For Xmas most people bake gingerbread cookies.
I say nay and bring you gingerbread zombies instead:
No wonder I'm getting the reputation around here for being the Dark Martha Stewart, haha!

Well, I just had one of the most fun weekends I've experienced in a very long time.
Friday:
Went to see The Cadillac Vamps show f/ Roxi Dlite at The 'Wick in London, ON. The girls, especially Roxi, were amazing, the crowd was friendly, rowdy and encouraging, my personal company (my bf Matt, his brother Rich, and our friend Jer) was a ton of fun and laughs, and I met the lovely musicismybf (who may soon be joining the troupe!). To see a slideshow of my pictures from the show, click here.
I then went to see Arden at The Salt Lounge, and we were both absolutely hammered and had a blast visiting. I love that girl! She makes me giggle and invites me to underwear parties.
Saturday:
Got woken up by Arden's mutliple text messages for food, so Matt, Rich and I met her and her bf at Yu's for some of the best sushi London has to offer. We had some fun conversation, then it was time for Matt and I to return to the mundane city that is Sarnia (*barf*).
Later, we had my best friend James over for chinese food, beer and scary movies. I jumped a lot from sudden noises, but the movies weren't so scary, though. Better luck next time James!
Sunday:
Had a nice, relaxing day and finally got to sleep in. Finally got to study, tidy up the house and grocery shop. Sounds boring, yes, but after all of the fun and drinking this weekend I needed a nice, slow and normal day.
I am so looking forward to getting pics of the kids on Tuesday when I hand out candy!

Update on health issues, for those concerned:
My blood tests, heart monitor and MRI are all clean. Strangely enough, all show that I'm healthier than I have ever been physically. However my dizzy spells still continue. Here are the options left:
- Panic attacks, and possibly developing agoraphobia. We're trying me on Paxil CR since the Clonazepam (spelling?) didn't do dick-all. I really don't like it so far. I've barely slept and my dry mouth is severe making everything taste wrong. I'm really panicky and emotional and paranoid, but it's supposed to get worse before it gets better according to the pamphlet. I'm giving the meds another week, tops.
- Food allergies. My sister started to develop food allergies to corn and tomatoes around my age. Passing out, etc. Almost exactly what I'm going through, but she got really blotchy too and had some other symptoms that were obviously allergy-related. I just get dizzy spells. It's the next course of action, so just waiting on my reaction to these meds right now.
- Early menopause. No, I'm not kidding. My cycle is WAY off and I'm on the pill. My nurse friend said that with stress and my body type, and my history of cycle issues down south it's not unheard of. I'm exhibiting signs of it. Again, one thing at a time.
To make matters worse, I got called for the jury selection process today. Last time, I was actually selected as juror 7 and went through 5 weeks of looking at autopsy photos, which I shall never forget for the rest of my life. I can't go through it again. My entire immune system shut down during the last day of sentencing and I almost had to go to the hospital. I think a doctor's note will get me out of it this time though. I really, really hope.

Today is my second day of being unemployed before I start a 9-week course at the college in a few weeks. I'm really starting to get sick of everyone saying how wonderful it must be, like they forget I'm completely housebound and think cabin fever is a vacation.
My dizzy spells prevent me from driving, going to the mall or grocery shopping by myself, or being an independent person in general. It sucks even worse when suddenly you realize you're the only person you know with a car and no one can help you, or is willing to.
Please don't be a tool and suggest a bus or walking. I couldn't stand the embarrasment of fainting in either scenario and relying on strangers to help me. If I can't rely on my friends, how in the hell can I rely on anyone else?
