Wow , so it`s really been awhile since I`ve blogged on here "/ . Sorry about that . I go through these phases where I blog all the time & then I get bored of it & stop . Right now I`m back in my blogging phase , so I`ll be updating more often .

Here`s a picture of the Navy girl pinup tattoo that I got :



It took 4 hours for her to do it . But I think I`m taking a break from tattoos for awhile , because the healing process for that tattoo was terrible . It took an entire month for it to heal (that`s never happened to me before) & it just looked really gross & infected for about 2 weeks . Thankfully it wasn`t infected , but for awhile I was freaking out because I really thought that it was . It doesn`t help that I have anxiety either . That just made everything worse . My husband was really getting tired of me asking him if it was infected or not , lolz , so thank gosh it healed okay .

April has been a pretty busy month . My daughter turned 2 on the 14th . Crazy shit . I just can`t believe that she`s 2 already . I`m really worried about her though , because she`s not talking like she should . She babbles , but at her age , she`s supposed to know 200 words & use small phrases , & she just doesn`t do that . So our doctor gave us a phone number to call a learning disability center , which we`re going to do because there`s something wrong - at least , imo there is . My husband said he would call tomorrow , so hopefully we can get an appointment set up for her to be assessed .

I had to switch medications from Lamictal to Depakote ER . The Lamictal was giving me this rash . I noticed the rash after my psychiatrist upped my dose of Lamictal , but it didn`t click in my head that it was from the medication . I thought it was just razor burn & that it would go away . Well , one day I was outside smoking a cigarette , looking at it , & I was like holy shit this rash is from the Lamictal ! Lamictal causes a rash...

Well , one day I was outside smoking a cigarette , looking at it , & I was like holy shit this rash is from the Lamictal ! Lamictal causes a rash that can turn deadly (it`s called Steven`s-Johnson Syndrome) , so of course I freaked out . I called my psychiatrist & he said that I would have to stop taking Lamictal immediately . That was HARD . I`ve been taking it for 2 years now , so my body was used to having it , & once it didn`t have it anymore , it went crazy . I was tired all the time & I just felt like I was having an out of body experience . I was unable to go see my psychiatrist until a whole week later , & by then I was miserable as fuck . I still don`t have a working car , so I had to wait until my husband had days off of work for me to take me there . So now I`m on Depakote ER again . I took it before for about 2 years until I got pregnant . It causes spinal bifita in an unborn fetus , so of course when I got pregnant I stopped taking it , & that`s when I switched to Lamictal . The good thing is that I know that it will work (& it does work - I`ve been taking it for a week now & thankfully it works quickly , unlike some other medications) . The bad thing is the pills are HUGE . Seriously , they`re the biggest pills I`ve ever seen . They`re bigger than vitamin pills , & those things are ginormous . I can`t crush them or even cut them in half because they`re extended release & they wouldn`t work properly if I did either of those things . & eventually I have to take THREE of them a day , ugh . But I guess I shouldn`t complain , because they work & that`s really all that should matter . I just wish that I didn`t choke on them every time I take one , lolz .

So I pretty much have the sweetest & most amazing husband ever . I FINALLY figured out why the Sims 2 doesn`t work on my laptop - I have a really shitty graphics card . So I called Dell & asked them if they could put a new one into my laptop . Well , apparently my graphics card is built into my motherboard & it would be cheaper for me to buy a new computer . So that idea obv wasn`t going to work . So I thought hey , I could just get a computer box , because I already have a monitor , keyboard , & mouse . All I need is the box . So my husband went & bought one for me ! I was like omigosh , please tell me that you really didn`t do that , but he was like oh , it`s too late I already bought one for you , & I was like , wow , you really did not have to do that ! It`s a gaming computer , lmao . I feel like such a dork for having a gaming computer . It`s not here yet , but hopefully it will be here on Wednesday or Thursday . Thankfully my husband doesn`t have work & he can help me set it up , because I suck at that sort of thing . But I`m oh so excited to get it ! The Sims 2 will work with it & the Sims 3 will work with it too , yay !

Ugh , I now have to wear rubber bands for my braces . & I only have them on one side , so it looks really fucking stupid imo . & it makes my teeth hurt SO badly , argh . & I have to wear the one band all the time . This one girl at the orthodontist office only has to wear them at night . I`m so jealous . Hopefully I will get to that stage too . I`ve had my braces for a year now & it`s going to be another 6 months before I can get them off D:< . I really want them gone NOW , but apparently my jaw needs to be moved , which is why I have to wear evil rubber bands . But my teeth are straight , so that`s good . They don`t change my wires anymore because they`re all done with straightening my teeth - it`s just my jaw that needs work now .

I got a new cell phone too . It`s a T-Mobile G1 & I love it . It`s touch screen , but it also has a slide out keyboard , which is nice for me because yeah , I have fat fingers & me trying to use a touch screen keyboard would be an epic fail , lolz . The only thing I don`t like about it is that sometimes when I get a text it doesn`t go off , so I have no fucking clue that I got one & then I feel bad for not responding to whoever texted me . Maybe it`s because I dropped it last week , lmao xD . Or maybe it`s because there`s too many text messages with certain people , so now it doesn`t even alert me any more . Oh well . I personally think it`s much better than the iPhone . Yeah , I HATE Apple products , lolz .
