Sooooooooooo, this is kind of late but my surgery went well last week. It only took about 30 min., and it hurt like a bitch when he stuck the needle in my ear in about 5 diff. areas to numb it. He showed me what it looked like after he cut it off...u know when ur eating chicken legs and at the end of the bone there's that white nubby bit of cartilage? It was like that, but in the shape of an egg and a little less than a half of an inch long, with a root sticking out, like a potatoe. Except bloody. MmMmmm....bloody egg-potatoe. (What!?) Anyway, so he told me it shouldn't bleed much at all, but the first 2 days it bled a lot, like as in someone told me at work that it was dripping down my ear, but it's fine now. I do miss my keloid though, no joke. But I guess it was it's time to go off on it's own to a laboratory. Sniffle.
Went to a haunted cornfield/barn last Friday w/ nate, matt and matts brother. It was fun, and not too scary but I'm pretty jump so i squealed like a jackass every time one of the fake "monsters' popped out. I definitely filled the girly stereotype that night by being the only one who got scared. Or at least expressed it....u know how guys are, macho and whatnot. The rest of the weekend wasn't so great...Nate kind of pissed me off because I was PMS'ing and all moody, and I ended up bitching him out for something retarded, but it's all ok now. Our first "fight" I guess u would say, except he didn't fight back. He knew he was being an ass, and he knew I was unable to stop my bitchyness, so he had nothing to argue about. Nothing worth writing about....I'm not even sure why I brought it up.
My dad is having surgery on Friday. He found out a couple of weeks ago that he has colon cancer. I'm scared....he's not very tolerant to pain, and being extremely overweight and very susceptible to colds makes me wonder how he's gonna get thru this. Plus, I just really don't want to see him in pain, (obviously,) and also I KNOW that he's gonna milk it for all it's worth and whine a lot. The doc said he should be fine in a couple of weeks, but knowing him he'll drag it out for a couple of months. That's some pretty horrible stuff for me to say, but that's just how my dad is. Not to mention the fact that he's out of a job again (no fault of his own,) and this is just going to set him back from finding one. It's going to be an interesting couple of months, I'm sure. I just hope he makes it through and hopefully starts taking better care of himself.
Have u ever been taking a piss when suddenly a big centipede crawls out from under ur toilet!? That happened to me tonight, and I started screaming, and my mom comes running to the bathroom and breaks in just as I'm pulling my pants up to see if I'm ok. I HATE centipedes!!! Luckily my mother is a super hero and squashed it for me. Hooray for super mom!! I always feel bad for killing them, but if I let it live I'll just be scared for the rest of the night. Hopefully he is at peace all flushed away in our toilet.
BTW, what's ur stand on abortion? I'm totally pro choice, and I know it's been a big issue for conservatives w/ the presidential race, so I guess I'm just curious to see what everyone thinks about it. I think Kerry had a great point in the 2nd debate when he said something about how he didn't support abortion himself, but he doesn't think it's right to impose his beliefs on people who don't agree with him and force them into not having a choice. That's a standup fucking statement, I say. Cuz seriously, why should such a personal decision have to have government approval? I don't think it should even be an issue....a lot of the controversy over it stems from religious belief, and religion is not even supposed to be a factor in polictics, anyway. (Although Bush really seems to enjoy using his faith as a way to tip the scales...) This is why I don't bother w/ organized religion....I have my beliefs, and I get all the spiritual healing I need through dear mother nature. I wish I had a tree icon....that would kick ass. Anyway, gimme some feedback, especially if u disagree, cuz I'd like to hear different points of view. (Just please try not to be an asshole...I'll get mad. )
Hope everything is peachy.

I will now have centipede nightmares.
Oh. Now here is where I get in trouble, but mostly with myself. You see, I feel like a complete dick when talking about abortion while having a Y chromosome. That being said, I'm Pro Choice. Whenever the issue comes up, I have an image of a woman whose health is in danger, and a doctor telling her she can't consider all of her life saving options. What kind of a person can call themselves...a person and want legislation which could take us closer to that situation? I just don't get it.
Well, that was too long and specific. Sorry.
What was your surgery for? Are you ok.
So sorry about your dad. My dad had a tumor last year and it scared the living daylights out of me. He's ok now!
Pro-choice all the way. Pro-Kerry. I just don't understand why people want a Christian govt. I thought that separation of Church and State was one of our founding principles as a country. But what do I know.
I don't know anyone who is voting for Bush. Even my husband's parents (long-time republicans) are not voting for him.
What is wrong with this the people of the US????
