This past weekend my aunt and uncle from Michigan came down for his 53rd high school reuion? He's around 71 I think. Goes to the gym everyday. My aunt can school me in yoga. So embarrasing. She was a ballerina and then owned her own dance school for like 30 years though so I guess that would make some sense. They're kinda high strung though and my mom gets weird when they visit and thus I get weird too because my mom drives me insane.
They wanted to visit my brother's house so I went on a cleaning frenzy. I seriouly want to throw all of my posessions away. I feel discontent when I have a lot of shit, and yet, when I see 15 neat stacks of every color turtleneck possible in a store, i want one of each. i really do. I almost don't want to get any if I can't have one of each....
I have an interview at WholeFoods tomorrow. heh. I figured I spent enough time and money in there already why not work there in the meantime. I also gave my resume to Dan's houselady and she'll give it to her principal. They need substitute teachers.
I'm thinking PA more and more. It would take three years....but so what. what the hell am I doing now that is making me happy or rich? exactly. The imaginary schedule looks like this: 1.) Begin prereqs this spring, probably at Pitt. Research more about different programs. 2) Fall more classes apply to schools/ Spring finish up classes 3) Fall of 2007 begin a PA program. Spring of 2009 be done.
I didn't go to accupuncture last week because I began to feel guilty about 65 dollars being spent in an hour, and wanted to space it out a bit. I think I'll schedule another appointment at the end of the week, especially if I get a job. The first time was relaxing and felt good. The needles in the ear was not too pleasant but Eh. The second time was a bit less relaxing. So he sticks them in. They feel good. He then proceeds to hook them up to some sort of voltage system thing. "Can you feel that?" me- no "Can you feel that?" me- no "Can you feel that?" me- no "Can you feel that? me- OWWW He adjusts it a bit. My ear and forehead and hand begin to twitch and he adjusts it a bit more until it is just a pulsation. I really couldn't call the sensation good. It was rather disturbing actually. It wasn't painful really just not comfortable. The stranger part is that your body registers these sensations and sends out hormones to counteract them. About 15 minutes into it I could no longer feel the pulsations. They just....disappear even though the electricity is still being carried. So he upped it. All the while he puts this heat lamp on my feet. Ahhhhhhh so nice. At some point I think, are my feet being burned? So I raised my leg to view my foot. I put it down. No burns... and I guess my rolled up pant leg got stuck on one of the needles.
Shoots of pain are going down my leg and first registering in my heel. Im laying there going, that.... that.... doesn't feel good. I think that is pain. Uhm....my heel hurts. pretty bad. Then I could feel that it was starting to the right of my shin. It was a very very strange sensation. Almost like a current of pain, though my legs hadn't been connected to the electricity. Very weird. I pulled the emergency cord thing which sends him in like what's wrong what's wrong???
Anyway, that's the extent of my accupuncture fun.
Another side note: I was in Oakmont on Wednesday of last week. I was sitting in the drivers seat of my car on the boulevard waiting for my grandmother to return from PNC bank. I see movement outside of my door and this man is opening my door. At first I panic like jesus god he's opening the door!!!! but then my brain goes..... this is Oakmont. It's Noon. And I just sit there staring at him. He looks at me very confused and is like "Oh my! I'm so sorry! I thought this was my car!" meanwhile his car is this luxury car sitting infront of me. I think it was a BMW....... Yes sir... I mistake my car for bmws all the time.
