Why I love today.

Mimi woke me up at 7:00 Am to do odd jobs for her and remind me to take out the trash. Which see does EVERY Monday. And then says. "Well I wouldn't remind you, but you ignore me all the time." Funny, I have lived here for two summers now and NEVER forgotten the trash on Mondays. So then I went to work, and realized that I was pretty lucky not to get hit by a tornado in Ohio. I found out that it touched down in the employee parking lot of the Midway Airport. They de-boarded every plane, and told us all to get away from the windows, against a wall, and even better under a doorway, or hold on to something for dear life. So our flight left an hour late. Which meant 5 minutes in the Vegas airport to get from Gate A to Gate B. I barely made it. The lady acted all huffy at me when I asked if I was too late. It was the last flight of the night and I really didn't want to spend a night in Sin City. She said, "I guess we will have to let you on, but they are about to leave." Well I got on and promptly realized that there were a total of about 10 people on the whole plane. As if I was holding up the Army. Geeze. So then I decided to take a nap on my row of seats. Since it was only a 40 minute flight, the lady walked real fast and skipped me on the peanuts. So when she came back the other direction. I very politely asked if I could have some peanuts. She looked at me, looked at her watch and said,"I'm sorry, my service has ended." Gag. What is wrong with the service industry these days!? Oh, and on our previous flight, one of the flight attendants thought Rachael and I were mixing drinks with our Dr. Pepper and Dt. Coke because we asked for extra ice and limes. Ha ha. He kept our secret safe. Ok, ADD has taken over. Back to things I love about today. I was driving home from work and in about 3 seconds flat, my temperature gauge went from normal to HOTT. And my feet almost lit on fire. So yeah, my personal(along with Robert's Dad's diagnosis) is that my fans aren't working, and neither is my water pump. Love that. When it rains it pours right. So in an effort to ignore my problems, I decided to go to a Dodgers game instead. So, that was fun! I will think about the issues in the morning. Or next year when I have time for this.

So you all may know the details...

I am sure that all of you know about my thyroid issue. I figured I would put in on here so I don't have to explain all the details to everyone! Ok, So I have hyperthyroidism (basically it is producing too many hormones). So, I am on medication for that. It is an ity bitty pill that packs a punch of a STRONG, BITTER, aftertaste for about 2 hours after no matter what I eat to suppress it. So, that in and of itself is a joy twice a day! So on top of that, I have a nodule.. a lump. The nodule is not causing the hyperthyroidism, which means there is a one in six chance that it is cancerous. As opposed to the other option, if it were causing it, it would be one in two hundred. So, mine is more likely to be cancerous. I have had about 12 blood tests, an ultrasound, and a thyroid uptake. If any one ever has to have one.. they are not fun! Basically they strap you to a table, head and all. And then press these two gray plates down on your face. Since there is no point of reference, you feel like they are about to break your nose off. Then you have to sit like that for 30 minutes. Yeah, I decided to take a nap. Anyway, this week I am having a needle biopsy. It shouldn't be too bad. It's an outpatient procedure, they just numb the area and stick a big old needle in the cyst and suck crap out of it. Ok, so from that, they will determine if it is cancerous or not, which means surgery and thyroid replacement medication. The other option is.. well I don't know yet. They doctor keeps saying, lets go from there. Which is really annoying because I am starting school on the 12th. I should stay here for the surgery because this endocrinologist has been rated as one of the top ten in the country. So there you have it. No need to panic. I am cool as a cucumber. Just thought ya'll wanted to know the details. I am most stressed about the scar it will leave on my neck. Cause gosh dang it, I have a nice neck!

Yes, I know.

So Amy asked if I knew that the dresses were immodest. Yes, I do. The lovely treasures bridal told us that we would have "cap sleeves". This is what they turned into. So yeah. Oh and some of the lovely things Treasure herself called me on the phone yesterday included, "cynical", "brat", "confrontational", "spoiled", and "dramatic". Gotta love her.

Wedding DRAMA!!

Ok, so this is one of the few posts that I actually have something to talk about. So, one of my best friends got married yesterday. Actually, currently I am sitting in the Columbus Ohio airport waiting for my flight.. like 4 hours. Luckily I have my best friend Rachael here with me to entertain. Ok, so for the drama. We were all to wear these awful sage green dresses. We, as faithful friends ordered them. Well, I received my dress, put it on once and the zipper broke. And no, to answer Treasure of Treasures Bridal, NO I am not too fat for the dress. Yeah, she actually asked me that when I called to complain. Shock I tell you, shock. So, she told me to send back the dress, they would replace the zipper, and she would pay for the shipping. So I did. I got the dress back, took it out of the box, unzipped it, zip..oh wait it was still broken! Give me a break!! So I called her back, gave her a piece of my mind and decided that I would get it altered, and she would pay for it. All in all, the lady at the alteration place ended up writing the ticket for extra so I could get more money :) ha ha. Ok, all is well and good. That didn't last long, there were five bridesmaids. So the day I got here to Ohio, Lacy tried on her dress. She had had it on 5 times before. Yep, the zipper ripped. Well we had an emergency seamstress visit the night before the wedding and her zipper was replaced. So this made us nervous. I called Treasure again, and she claimed that she has "NEVER had a problem with this dress in the past." I made a joke about how it would not be very funny for five bridesmaids standing outside the temple with their bras and underwear hanging out , wouldn't that look nice." Yeah so she said "that's funny." And I said, YOU'RE RIGHT! IT'S NOT! So, all in all, she said, I will refund the money for the zipper. Well.. If I went into all the details and all the stupid things that Treasure has said.. it would take all day. Long story short, right before we went to the temple, two more zippers broke. We attended the wedding with two new zippers, and two lovely bridesmaids sewn into their dresses. That's right, SEWN. And one of them was sewn in the waiting room in the temple, by the brides mother. Classy I tell you, classy. I officially hate Treasures Bridal. I HATE IT! In the end.. we have some pretty cute pictures. What you don't know is that all our bras and underwear are hanging out in the back.
