After a few hours (yes hours) of shopping for a pair of jeans, I have called it quits for the day. I thought I knew what I was looking for, but as with all women's clothes shopping I was sadly mistaken. I thought it would simply be me going in and finding my brand of jeans in my size with the correct styling. I was oh so very wrong ( Read more... )

Just saw the SNL opener and it was totally awesome! I'd put it just after the very first one they did with "Palin" and "Hilary". Loved Religulous. Go and see it. You won't be disappointed.

I passed the exam I took way back in april.  got the letter in the mail yesterday and it's currently posted on the fridge so i can make sure i didn't make the whole thing up.

now to go update my resume.  you KNOW that is going on there...

initially there was a possibility of a skin graft, but none was done.  surgery went well, she is done and most likely to leave hospital tomorrow.  must follow up with same doc next week.  moving will be on schedule, she may either commute, or just stay a week longer than all their stuff

forgot to mention the short basic physical they gave me yesterday.  As the doc (lady) was palpatating my abdomin my ticklishness kicked in and i about flew off the table.  it happened each time she tried to give that portion of the exam.  needless to say, highly embarrassing.  my face turned red as usual.  well then she continued asking me ( Read more... )

Today I had to go in for the Mayo people to pull blood and make me pee in a cup.  I am soo not a fan of the whole needle blood passing out thing.  And it was a fasting draw, so no food after 7pm yesterday.  My appointment was at 8am, so went in for the blood draw and about had a heart attack.  they took 10 tubes of blood.  at that rate I shoulda ( Read more... )

 Have I mentioned I hate doctor appointments?  I think I can only take so much touching and insulting by strangers with egos the size of texas.  Since today I go into Mayo, I'm beyond my normal nervousness.  I think it's because if they tell me it's all in my head, I'll have no where left to go.  That will just have to be the final answer.  I was ( Read more... )

Packaging Engineer on a Contract-to-Hire opportunity with a rapidly expanding healthcare corporation near the Northern Suburbs of Chicagoland

Ok, call me crazy, but I just don't know where Chicagoland is.  And, apparently, neither does mapquest.  It wanted me to "Use this similar location: Clement, IL"

Yeah, um no.

Maybe it's not a real job.  ( Read more... )

Well, all of those tests the doc sent my blood for all came back normal.   Figures, that's the only time I'm normal.  I'm honestly not even sure they're looking in the right places.  Mom and Dad have offered to help me pay for a Mayo appointment.  I've had it will all of the random body breaking down issues, so I'm taking them up on it.  I'm just ( Read more... )

went to the doc today.  they took a shitload of blood for the battery of tests they're going to do to find what the hell is wrong with me.  she offered a doctor's note to get out of working this weekend, but as i have no hours of personal time, that would mean i'd go without pay.  unable to do that ( Read more... )
