So at some point yesterday I lost track of my fabulous umbrella. I went out with my friend Clifford, and I managed to keep it with me all night, but now I don't have it. So I either left it at his place (hopefully), or on the bus. I think it's at his place because I don't remember having it when I was waiting for the bus. We went to Chapters yesterday, which was fun because most people get bored after 10 minutes, but we were there for over an hour. I picked up an autographed copy of 'Anansi Boys' by Neil Gaiman, which is a companion novel to his book 'American Gods'. If you're a book person, I highly recommend that one. I also got copies of 'A Million Little Pieces' by James Frey for my sister's friend (who's copy I have, but I want the pre-Oprah version), and for my mother or my sister, whoever wants it, I highly recommend that to anyone, regardless of whether you're a book person or not. Then we went back to his place and chatted for a bit, then hometime and to be bed. As I was falling asleep I heard the MSN noise, but I didn't check it until the morning. It was Jon, asking how my 'date' went. I laughed. I love that he's not the jealous type and doesn't care if I hang out with other guys. If he was, we'd have a problem considering that there's only one other girl in my program. I think it shows that he really trusts me, which is obviously a good thing in a relationship.
Also yesterday, (in the morning), I went bra shopping with my mom. Apparently I've been wearing the wrong size, and I'm actually a cup size bigger then I thought I was (38DD, for those interested). I also decided that I definitely want to have a breast reduction, since apparently that's the size you need to be to have it covered under insurance (although I could have it covered anyway, because of my back problems). The earliest I can do it will be the break in March, but I'll probably have to wait until school is done in June. A large part of my problem is that when I gain weight, I gain it in the chest area, but when I lose weight I don't lose it there. If I could, I would do it now, but I guess I just have to be patient, and wait a few more months.
Speaking of surgeries, I also went for a consultation to have my wisdom teeth removed. Fun, fun, fun. I'm not looking forward to that nearly as much. Luckily I only have them on the bottom, so it shouldn't be too bad. I booked it for a Thursday, which means I'll be missing two days of school. But it has to be done, I guess. Maybe I should reschedule it for my Christmas break. That would make more sense, since I would rather not miss school, and then it gives me a few extra days to recover. I must remember to do that.
So that was my day yesterday, completely out of order. Jon's got the day off today so we're going to hang out and do something. Maybe I can convince him to go shopping with him, since I really need some new winter clothes. All my sweaters are so old and nubby, and most of them were hand-me down to begin with. So I think I deserve a few new sweaters.
