I'm back in the states (and have been for, what, 4 days now?) and my joints have been hurting ever since I left for Finland (that was 2 1/2 weeks ago). I'm going to the doctor tomorrow, because i've been having to take crap-loads of Advil for it, and I also just found out that my dad's cousin and his mom's brother (not the father of his cousin..) have RA, rheumatoid arthritis. SO I'm just going to get checked out, pray for me? it hurts really bad if I don't take Advil, like how I did last night and woke up in the middle of the night because of the pain...
So that's the main reason why I haven't been posting (read: LAZY).
I've also been pondering what I mentioned in my last post, going to Matt's party or not. I'm pretty sure it's a no. What good would it do? (Again, i like it better in Finnish Mitä hyötyä siinä olisi?) Would it benefit him to see me? Would it benefit me? It very well could be an awkward, even painful encounter and that's not what he needs at this kind of crossroads in his life. This is the first time he's living outside of our state (at least to my knowledge, though it's been nearly a year since I've last talked to him..), and to grad school no less, so i wish him all the best. Congratulations on graduating from UW-Parkside, Congratulations on the girlfriend, and Congratulations on getting into Grad School, I know how hard it was. I wish him all the best and maybe we'll bump into each other someday. I can be civil, I can be polite, but I don't know if now's the best time to *presumably* try to re-instate our friendship JUST before he leaves.
It just doesn't make any sense to me to go. And like I said (did I?), if he REALLY wanted me to come, he could have invited me himself.
Well, that's about it. I'm off to take inventory on my things to take to Madison, and what I need to get. (Rug, extra guest sleeping place ha ha..)
OH and go Michael Phelps! and Go Kyra Kyrklund! (equestrian individual dressage rider)
