i don't know which i'm more excited about: going home for christmas, or getting groped by the TSA.

"spare me from the mold''

i got my oil changed yesterday. the mechanic told me that i definitely needed a new air cabin filter(the place where your ac + heat come out) because mine had definitely hit the shitter. my words, not his. apparently, the filter should be changed every 5,000 miles and mine hadn't been replaced for over 75,000. he showed it to me, and it was covered in mold. i had been breathing in mold for the past few months. awesome. hopefully that explains all the dumb health problems i was having. 


thank god for car mechanics that actually know what they're doing.

babysitting two little boys tonight.




the things i do for monetary income. hah.

i finally got the results back from my brain mri. and.. it was completely normal. huge relief. however, my cholesterol is dangerously high. the doctor said it is at the levels of an obese 55 year old woman. so that's cool. i'm limiting my dairy intake again, and have even started running. 

Dear God,

i'm sorry for being such an asshole.

MRI

i walked into the doctor's office this morning for my mri, completed the necessary paperwork, and was then told that to get to the mri, i had to drive to the lower level of the office parking lot.


long story short, the mri was in a tractor trailer. yep, a tractor trailer. the technician was incredibly nice. the machine had to be reset three times. the firing squad sounds weren't as bad as i expected, and it didn't take a lot of effort to not freak out about laying in a coffin-like tube. the worst part was the dye that they injected inside me. definitely made my arm hurt at the injection site for a good hour, but that's to be expected i suppose. 


i'll get the results in a week. i'm feeling like it will come back normal, since they didn't make me do additional scans, or call me right after.


shalom to you + yours this evening.

tomorrow morning is my brain mri. 






holler?
