so sunday i turned 20. my parents bought me yankees tickets.. tier box MVP seats behind home plate for sept. 14th against the tampa bay devil rays. should be an easy win but you never know with baseball. they also got me an andy phillips jersey which should be shipping out of the mlb shop warehouse any day now. i can't wait to wear it! my brother got me a charcoal drawing of bob dylan.. a perfect fit for my dylan wall. feddy bought me the prettiest flowers and probably the best card i've ever gotten. i love him so much! i also got $$$ and that's about it. i didn't really do anything sunday. i stayed home and watched the yankee game with my boy and the fam and picked my brother up from my cousin's house in SP.
now that i'm 20 my health is starting to fall apart, kinda. i went to the doctor for a check up last week and he informed me i lost 10 lbs in one year and 5 lbs in three months. this is weird considering i only try to gain weight, not lose it. so he gave me a referral to get blood work done. i went on friday and the doctor called yesterday with the results. it's possible that i could have a hyperactive thyroid, which is what is causing me to lose weight. it also could just be that i don't eat enough cause i'm so busy running around everywhere. i hardly have time to sit down and eat a whole meal. so now i'm demanded to sit and eat and take vitamins and drink orange juice on a daily basis. i have to go back for more blood work in three weeks to see if any progress has been made. hopefully it will by that time and i have nothing to worry about.
i also got a mole removed from my toe about a month ago. the dermatologist called my mom today at work and told her i have an "odd mole." what that is i have no idea. but basically she wants me to see a surgeon and get my toe looked at deeper or something? if you ask me they just want all the money they can get out of me.
what a way to ring in being 20.. happy birthday kate, you're falling apart.
this summer sucks pretty much. i haven't seen any of my friends.. erica once and alex bussey once and big john studd maybe two times. i think that's pretty much it though. i went to the beach once and got no color with no sunscreen on for a decent amount of time. i work five days a week, seven hours a day, and by the time i get home i really don't feel like doing anything. i play video games with my boy and chill and his friend's house. i don't really mind but whatever.
the only thing that keeps me happy nowadays are the yankees. not even music anymore, it just kinda makes me depressed. but baseball, it makes me so happy. i don't know why but when i'm watching a yankees game, no matter if they're winning or losing, there's always a smile on my face. i squeek when andy phillips comes up to bat and when he makes a play or even when they put the cameras on him. there's a huge smile on my face everytime i hear how well alfonso soriano is doing. it makes me proud to say that i knew him way back when everyone thought he didn't deserve to be a yankee. i'm glad that he's doing just as good, or even better than a-rod. i knew it all along and people are finally starting to see it. he's the most sought after player in baseball right now and i couldn't be happier about it. watching yankee games just makes me want to be a sports journalist again. it's what i've wanted since i was a kid, after my parents told me i wouldn't be able to play in the MLB cause i was a girl. it's good to be back in baseball. i have andy phillips to thank for that. if it wasn't for him i'd still be a bitter soriano loving a-rod hating baseball boycott-er. don't get me wrong i still love soriano and hate a-rod but atleast i'm back in baseball and I LOVE IT!
