i'm just so glad it's the long weekend. i've had a horrible march, and april pretty much started off on the wrong foot and i've resorted to being a hermit in my basement. i hope may's better.

[rosehiptea]

I hope May is better for you too. My specific weekend didn't start out so great either but I think the month may go up from here.

i'm finally starting to realize that i'm an actual adult (will be 22 this summer) and there are things that are my own business, and only my business, and that others do not need to know about it

[rosehiptea]

I'm sorry people are getting into your business. That's rough -- it's one thing that doesn't really happen to me. (The downside is that I'm alone a lot, but still, there is an upside in that if I want to keep thinkgs to myself I can.)

I'm sorry to hear that about your anxiety though. That's definitely a tough thing to have to deal with. (If I threw up on outdoors I don't even know if I'd clean it up, so I give you credit for that, seriously.)

I had an ER visit last night for some pain. The doctor I got was awesome and patient and answered all my questions no matter how outlandish they may be.

My boyfriend was also awesome, but than he always is. He dealt with a loopy, whiny, tired me afterwards very well.

[hollzilla]

i haven't skipped a birthday at the ER lately - i seem to always come down with infections that require ER visits.

i hope you're okay!

For me, it's usually the holidays that I end up in the ER or hospital for. :-/

I'm working on it. Been ordered to take it easy, so the boyfriend is taking care of me. He took the day off since we didn't get home til after 1 am our time and he has a dentist appointment today.

[hollzilla]

my idea of taking it easy is watching some tv, have some delicious snacks laying around and my cats keeping me warm. :)

I've been working out lately and am really proud of how my cardio has gotten better. While cardio was my goal I've lost almost five pounds!

[hollzilla]

woohoo! my workout regime tends to go up and down - it's exam time for me and all i want is coffee, coffee and more coffee.

[miffedplatypus]

Nice! :D

[draike]

Congrats! I'm in the same boat. I had a goal for cardio and I've lost a few pounds unintentionally as well. I love how my energy has gone up in general because I was getting tired so easily before.

I finally decided to start learning German because I'm into German rock. I thought people might laugh at my reasons but I had the first lesson (small privately held class was all I could find nearby) and the teacher was amused in a good way by my motivation. (I realize there are much better reasons to learn any language but that was my main reason for actually starting, so.)

[skellington1]

I think any reason that will get you out and doing it is a pretty good reason, myself. Good for you!

[arabwel]

dude, that's my reason for learning German. well, that and the festivals. so ok, industrial more than rock but you know... :D

[rosehiptea]

Yay, I'm not alone!

It was embarrassing that I couldn't even pronounce the name of my favorite band correctly at the first lesson, but I'll improve with practice I hope.

The last couple days, my endometriosis has been acting up pretty bad, and I'm just hoping all my chronic health conditions decide to settle down for me and let me have a few healthy days next weekend for FCN. Is that so much to ask? =/

[hollzilla]

that isn't too much to ask, i hope you're feeling better soon!
