HA! I am bouncing off the fricking walls. 35 35 35... Since I never thought that I would ever live to be this age, it feels weird. By my estimations, I should have died 10 years ago. I got it into my fucked up head that since my sister committed suicide when she 25. 88 days before her 26th bday in 1988, that by some genetic flaw that we might share that something tragic would happen to me when I turned 25. Something did actually. 21 days after my bday, I had a 10 pound tumor ( yes I typed 10 pounds) that decided it no longer wanted my left ovary to stay in it's normal position. It decided to take it south, causing me utter pain. After 2 days of downing double strength Maalox for what I perceived as "bad gas". My dad makes me go to the emergency. After 7 doctors asking if I was pregnant, a speculum and a vaginal "probe". They found my tormentor plus 4 of his smaller brothers. I was told that I had to have surgery and pronto. I said something like maybe we could do it next week and the fucking doctor kicked my GODDAMNED BED! Did I mention that my stomach had doubled in size and the slightest motion caused me pain? So I cried "UNCLE" and gave the go ahead for the surgery.
I think to myself... "this is it! this is when I check out of here". I told my mom that I was totally fine with dying. I was super fucking calm. Scared my mom shitless. Needless to say when I woke up in recovery, I was confused about heaven having the entire hospital feel to it. I am thankful that I did not die. I would have missed out on meeting really intelligent, cool, freaky deaky people. What I think I will gain with this 35th year of my ongoing odyssey on this planet... HOPEFULLY A NEW FUCKING JOB! HA HA
