Internet Issues

The internet here at our beach house sucks. We don't stand a snowball's chance in hell of being able to get on regularly. So currently, the internet's being cooperative so I thought I'd update and tell you all that I'm having a good time, and that I would come and comment on people' pages and take part in chat and be friendly but our internet is stupid, so bah. Oh well. Hopefully I'll be able to post something interesting soon. Not much going on. Regular family vacation. Cousins and such all around the house, playing jokes on each other, friendly, loving banter, ect. So I'm having a good time. Talk to you guys later.

Several ways to be bored to death...

Having an MRI is one of them.

I had my MRI this afternoon. I'm serious, if you've had one you know what I'm talking about--it's the most boring thing on the face of the planet. I'm dead serious. I couldn't fall asleep because the machine was so loud. And so I did multiplication tables in my head for a little while, before moving on to going over the Periodic table of elements. I kid you not. I was bored enough to do school-related stuff. I then started signing '99 bottles of beer on the wall' to myself, I got to 89 before I started to feel like a complete moron. I then counted all the ceiling tiles I could see. There's 26, by the way. I then studied the wallpaper, it had interesting patterns of swirlies in it, so I could see pictures in it. I saw a starfish, and unhappy face, and Wiz Pig from Diddy Kong Racing. I then started hearing repetative words coming out of the hum on the machine. So it sounded like it was saying 'panda, panda, panda, panda' over, and over, and over again. By the time this was over I was completely insane. My parents laughed at me when I told them all this; but good Lord! I was about to loose my mind!! And I won't get the results back for another week. Oh well.

Doctor's Appointment

So I went to the doctor today...and he had no idea what was wrong with me. Greeeeat. He gave me a perscription for some anti-inflamatory medicine. I took some X-rays today. And got some blood work done ['cause he thinks it may be arthritis] and then I have to go in for an MRI on Friday. So currently I have no idea what's wrong with my knee. I'll probably find out week after next.

My day, which started being sucky about half way through.

So, I woke up at 5:45. Got ready to go to the amusement park, and then went to the church [it was a youth group feildtrip.] Stopped by the Sheetz for breakfast. Some people ran to the McDonalds across the street. I just got a Starbucks drink and a cinnamin roll for the gas station. Ate on the bus, and then got to the amusement park. Stuck with a guy friend of mine who made me get on a couple of coasters before we had to go perform. My knee completely and utterly gave out before we even started performing our human videos. So I called mi padre and had him come pick me up after we were done perfomring. So it sucked that I had to go home 10 hours early. :( But, I came home and took a shower [it was freakin 100 degrees at the dang park, I was sweaty and nasty] and my mom put ice on my knee so I had it propped up for a while. And that's been my day thus far. I kind of doubt it will be any more interesting...

I have driver's ed tomorrow, and I really hope we're not driving. I don't want to sit in a car for two hours. Nor do I feel like driving. My driving instructor is...an interesting guy. [cough] And then I have an appointment with the orthopedist to check out what's wrong with my knee. I think they might be doing a X-ray and a MRI tomorrow; but, I'm not sure. So prayers for that would be appreciated.

Crappy Day

Didn't sleep well last night mainly because I stayed up late watching Avatar and talking to my sister until 1 in the morning. Spent today bored out of my mind trying to entertain my grandparents. It's usually really awkward, because I don't have much to say. I've just been sitting with them while they watch TV, I've been reading The Stand by Stephen King, so I guess I at least have something to do. My aunts and uncle came for dinner with us tonight. If the conversation wasn't awkward, people were quiet and if people weren't quiet they were arguing. So, yes, I kept my eyes on my steak [and there wasn't much steak to it, I got to short end of the stick with the really marbled piece of meat so all it was was inedible--in my worldview--fat.] and pretended to be listening. Also, my mother says she might not let me perform with my human video team Monday because I'm 'limping, grimacing and might hurt your knee even more than it already is'. If I can't perform with the team I'll let people down, I'll let myself down and I'll be so pissed off it's not even funny. I'm really tired and upset, and I just found out that I have to go to driver's ed earlier tomorrow. It was going to be from 8 'til noon--but nooooooooooo, our instructor just called and asked if we could get they at 7. There's no way in heck I'll be able to drive that early in the morning. I've sacrificed my room so my aunt can spend the night tonight, so now I'm on my sister's floor--and I won't sleep well, and I'll have to be lucid so I can drive, and I'll have to get up a freakin' 6 o'clock tomorrow morning, and I'm so upset right now I could cry. And quite frankly that's what I feel like doing.
