Hmm I am not even sure what the last thing I posted was but I am sure quite alot has changed that I don't really want to get into. Lately my sister and I have been getting closer than we used to be, we chat more and more it seems. This could be because I gave her my old iPod when i got my new iPhone though.
This last week has been a difficult one for me, I have come down with Gout and it was affecting my right toe, thinking it was just arthiritis I ignored it for the most part and it had seemed to go away last Friday, until LATE friday nite, I noticed that my foot was tender again, i attributed this to playing Wii half the nite with my DnD group. By saturday nite I couldn't even walk on it, I ended up calling into work Sunday nite and made an appointment with the On Call Doc at the clinic I attend, I had to make one with the Oncall because I havn't chosen a new primary doc since my last one decided that he would rather re-enlist in the coast guard. I really like the doc that saw me though and I think I will see if I can get her as my primary. Anyway I spent about 5 mins talking to her after she examine my foot she explained quickly what gout was, i already had an idea though, i had suspected by this time that that is what it was, and she prescribed Allopurinol, which i will probably be on for the rest of my life, it is a preventative medication, and Indocitril which i think is basiclly super advil, it's not a narcotic at least, which is good as I can take it and it will still allow me to work. My foot is almost back to normal at the moment though i suspect it will probably still bother me a lil in the morning after work tonight.
Work has started it's slow down it seems, though they are hopeful that at least after shutting down this coming week that we will work stead through christmas, yes I caught that that is only 8 weeks away, I really wasn't to impressed with the meeting that we had this morning, on a plus side I did get a 2% raise, unfortuntly I'll probably be lucky to get 40 hours a week for a bit, I am hoping that after the new year that construction will pick up as the economy get's better.
It seems that at work everyone is talking about politics, to be honest I am sick of talking about them, I think that both Obama/Biden and McCaine/Palin are both weak choices, and I really doubt that McCaine will win though, of course I thought that Bushey would never get a second term either so what do I know.
As the weather get's colder the lonlier I've been feeling lately, would be nice to have someone in bed to cuddle with sometimes. I wonder if maybe I am being too picky sometimes, I think I am a little scared to get into another realtionship. I am still living with Bill and he seems to bring up whenever he can that I should get out and date some. I never seem to either be in the mood for it or have the money lately for it. I am seriously thinking about moving back to Kansas, I kind of want to see what work is going to be like after the new year first, I can't make what I am now making back there, and I don't think I can live that close to my mother anymore. She no longer thinks I'm a drug addict these days though since I told her I have gout she now thinks I am an alcoholic, and that really pisses me off sometimes. No I think I am better farther away from her these days. I wonder what she will do when my sister graduates and moves away from Kansas, she will probably follow her as I think Timi plans to move out here, well at least to the Northwest.
I think I have rambled enought for the moment, if you read all of this thanks for listening
