Almost FREE!

I had another lovely doctor appointment this morning. I know enough now to "fast" the night before and the morning of the appointment because it never fails; they always draw blood from me when I am there. The girl had a hard time with my stupid veins so she had to poke me 5 times for 4 vials of blood. Good thing I can handle the needles these days. Even so, I was feeling the urge to vomit all over her rubber gloved covered hands.

The good news is that my blood disorder is seemingly under control. I will be on my meds for life, but they keep everything pumping. I'm still losing weight (is it ever going to end??) and my blood pressure was AMAZINGLY normal. Bad news is that I am now being tested for Celiac Disease. The fun never ends! Apparently, it's a pretty common disease, but it just sucks bloody blow holes because I just learned how to control my diet the South Beach way and now if I get diagnosed with this, it will fuck everything up again.

On the college news, I only have 1 more final and I'm free! It's such a relief lifted off my shoulders knowing that it's almost done. Are any of you kids coming to my brew-ha-ha on sunday May 8th? I would try to lure you in with beer...but alas there will be no beer...but there will be free food! PLUS, you get to meet my extremely crazy messed up family. It starts at 1 p.m., but feel free to come by any time. Dusty will be the grillin' masta and you can meet my fat furry FRISKY! I would really like it if you kids were able to swing by. It would totally make my day.

I grew up in Bessemer, so I know Dustin.... :) just so you don't think I'm weird or something. But, my boyfriend has celiac disease, and I also, am living gluten free. If you have any questions about it, I'd be happy to answer them for you. :) My aim name is BeauReve9.

Hi Stacy! Thanks for leaving a comment. I'll have to ask you sometime about it if I am diagnosed or not. Thanks again. :)
