Saturday was pretty awful health wise. Spent most of the day with my "upper right quadrant" pains (i.e. my gall bladder shooting pains) coming back with full force. Also, severe back pains (one of the gall bladders favorite spots to transfer pains), nausea, light headedness and just feeling drained. It had been pretty bad since Wednesday. Today was better though. Thank God for that. I got a bit of sculpting done and watched How to Lose Friends and Alienate People. Which was a fun film, but I got the feeling I'd have enjoyed it more without the migraine.
Though I've got my highest dose Vicodin in my right now and so am feeling relatively ok, I've got to admit that I'm scared shitless about this upcoming week. Finals. First of all, I've got to apply my multipiece (which I'm doing on my day off). So much for my day off to recover. Also, My fluff day Thursday has turned into an extra sculpting day. I think the only thing that's going to save me is the fact that I'll be sculpting all those days which means I just face forward and do my work. Also, extended breaks won't result in me ruining anything (like it would if I was making a mold).
One more week and I get to be done! One more week and a few days and my gall bladder comes out and I get to recover and be back to normal!! I've never been so thankful and excited for surgery. Then again, I've only had surgery one other time.
I found out something really awesome this weekend. Watched America's Best Dance Crew with Christian and found out he was just as hooked and into the show as I was. This was this huge thing I loved that I never thought I'd get to share with him and found out I wasn't giving him enough credit. I'm trying to get him to watch Step Up 2 The Streets with me. One of these days. Think he'll really like it.
Anyways, it's bed time now. I'll try to write more after the surgery is over and such.
