This Terri Schaivo thing is really getting on my nerves. I can't wait until it's over and will be removed from television. It's sick how people jump on a "cause" like this. Brad's right, these people should put their anger in a positive direction: like the starving people in poorer countries. This woman has been stuck in a bed with brain damage for about 15 years due to a heart attack caused by lack of electrolytes because she was a bulimic and drank ALOT of iced tea, so it dehydrated her to the point where her body said no more. This is what my teacher told us, I don't know it as fact, but I do know many people are creating their own ideas of what really happened. I just know I'd want someone to leave me in peace if I was stuck in a hospice for that long. I made a point to Matt the other day that if this were to happen to me, to just let me go, and he agreed and wants me to do the same for him. But that's enough about that.
I FINALLY heard back from Cheryl Oakley about my waivers and substitutions because of my LD diagnosis. I can finally register for classes! I think I'm only gonna take 3 classes, plus be working, volunteering and going through Family HealthLine training. I'm trying to do well this semester, TRYING. I don't know why every semester I start out doing great and I"m so excited, but by mid to end of the semester it goes away and I feel stuck, suffocated and can't wait to get out. Plus, the Zoloft is making me feel very odd, still. I am very shaky all the time, and keep getting anxiety attacks. Today, I went to lunch with Matt and his mom and my ears have been sensitive since I've had a cold, so everything is very loud, and I felt like the walls were closing in on me. I got very dizzy and scared and had to go outside for a minute to breathe. I'm going back to the doctor tomorrow and will tell him about it. I know I need to see a counselor, but I just feel like I never have time.
Anyway, so Matt's grandmother has left for Oklahoma so we will be temporarily moving to her apartment to keep an eye on it while she's gone, atleast until her lease is up. It'll be nice to have the privacy.
Man, my ears are so sensitive that even my typing is killing my ears...ugh...I'm gonna go read, that's quiet =)
