*comes. But nevermind that.

And no, I have not pre-ordered the album. Honey, please. I don't want a damn digital copy of it. I will be at a store on September 17th purchasing a hard copy of it. That is, if any stores in my area decide to sell it. Hell, if it were up to me, I would buy a tent and camp outside the store selling it the cheapest several days in advance, like those assholes do on Black Friday.

And no matter how much I love them, of course I am going to purchase the album at the cheapest price possible. What do I look like? I am made of money?

Article Of The Day

hey girl

I need something like this. Except I need one that swaps shitty pictures with random pictures of Andrew. OH GOD YES. I would never see the light of day again. Or I would....eventually. With one arm greatly increased in muscle, like Quagmire when he first discovers internet porn.

A word of warning- if you are a prude, do not Google image "quagmire and internet porn". I shouldn't have expected any less, but good lord, my virgin eyes!

Speaking of which, I really want to know how tall Andrew is. Why, I do not know. Sometimes I need to just know minute things about people. And sometimes information just comes along, like when Andrew lost his virginity. Of course I wondered about it, but I didn't need to particularly know it. But anyway, I have heard he is like 5'10. But I saw a picture of him at some music thing and he is standing in front of John Mayer and John Mayer looks like Godzilla compared to him. Mayer is supposedly 6'3. And Andrew even looks shorter than John Legend, who is supposedly 5'9. I have a hard time believing he could be 5'10, with as short as he looks compared to the two Johns. He looks so teeny! And I can't give a guess how tall he looked at Musikfest, since I was about 43 miles away from the stage. Okay, I wasn't that far, but if it's not front row seats, it's not close enough. Guess I won't know how tall he is unless I meet him!

Random Thoughts

So it's been over a week and I guess it's safe to say I did not have diverticulitis. I am still bloated as anything, though. Like birth control bloating, if not worse. I feel so fat and miserable, I want to tear my hair out. I look like I am fucking pregnant! And I think I may be able to get a refund for the pills, so I have to decide whether to return them. I probably should, since I feel so miserable.

And speaking of disease fears, it seems like the Addison's fear has been in dormancy for quite some time. Will it ever go away? Unlikely. That fear tore such a deep hole in my soul that I don't think anything, even a perfect ACTH stimulation test, will ever make it go away.

I just got back from Wildhood a few days ago. It was a nice couple days, for the most part. Minus the ignorant ass people. Look, I know Wildhood is not exactly the epitome of classy shore resorts, but I have never been around so many rude people down there in all of the years I have been going. I was appalled. And they were either ghetto ass people or foreigners.

One night I was coming down the steps at the motel and there were two guys sitting at the bottom and when I walked by, I heard one of them say "oh this is a good spot to sit". Now I don't definitely know if he was making a reference to enjoying my rear-end or what, but the kid was like 15. I wanted to turn and say to him, honey, please; I know I supposedly look young for my age, but I am going to be 30 years old in a couple months, so dream on.

And speaking of big rear-ends, I felt like such a cow at the pool. Even though 95% of the people there were significantly bigger than me. I am normal body weight; why do I still have to feel fat? There was even a Tan Mom doppelganger there. Bleached hair, extreme faux tan, saggy body and big belly, and wearing a teeny string bikini. She was nasty. I don't know how her daughter walked with her. I told my mother if she looked like that, I would pretend not to know her.  

My brother-in-law and my father came down one of those days and as usual, the former was a pain in the ass. Not friendly, trying to control everything, talking to my sister like she is stupid. Hell, even my sister was pissed with him. She told me she wishes he didn't even bother coming down. At some point, he made a snide comment to me and I told my sister about it later. She was not happy. I totally would have loved to have told her the millions of other snide comments he has made.

And the boy has absolutely no patience with my nephew. It's ridiculous. It's pretty bad that I, the person who loathes children, have more patience with the baby than his own father. Clearly he is one of those idiots who doesn't realize how much raising a child involves. Why are so many people clueless to this? You are taking care and raising a whole other human being. A human who has no idea what to do for themselves for a while. What do people expect?

And one night when we were all in bed, my sister was playing on her phone and makes some comment that oh I am going to love this news and hands me her phone. My FWA's boyfriend, who graduated with my sister, posted on Facebook that he is going to be a father. My FWA is pregnant. The idea of that dumb white trash bitch being a mother is terrifying. Plus, for someone who has claimed to have miscarriages in the past, she is an awful big rush to announce it.

Oh well. Guess her boyfriend will definitely stick around now. *eye roll*

I have been debating whether to send her a congratulations or not. She couldn't have the decency to congratulate me on becoming an aunt or to at least tell me to tell my sister congratulations when I told her that my sister was pregnant after I posted something about her baby shower and she replied with "your sister is pregnant?". This was more than two months after I announced it on Facebook. She tells me she loves looking at the pictures I post, but does she "like" any? Does she comment on any? No. Sure, doing neither of the two doesn't mean anything, but frankly, I think 98% of the shit that comes out of her mouth is lies. I've caught her in quite a few before. I really don't want to wish her a congratulations. But then if I run into her (I ran into her in June) or God forbid, I get invited to her baby shower at work, if one is thrown, it would be awkward.

Ugh. That baby shower. I swear, I never thought I could hate extended family anymore than I already did. Then my sister's baby shower happened. Damn assholes. Also, I was thinking earlier how idiot mombies can't grasp the idea of someone not wanting to be a mother. Well, everytime someone tells me they want a baby, I want to ask them why. I'll pass, thank you.

And now I can't stop laughing thinking of all of the times she thought girls were after her boyfriend. He's like 300 plus pounds! Hardly anyone is going to be knocking down the door to get him! And if it ever crossed her mind that I would go after him, I would slap her across the face and then I would laugh until I choked to death. And then I would beg Satan or God (wherever I end up) to send me back to earth so I can laugh until I choke to death again.

Ugh

Lisa Robin Kelly Has Died

Aw, I loved her on That 70's Show. Her character was one of the best parts of the show. The faces and snide comments she made were priceless. And then to die while in the midst of getting clean is just ridiculously horrible. These deaths the past 2 days are depressing. I loathe any of the Bachelor or Bachelorette shows, but the suspected suicide of that former Bachelor contestant made me sad.

On another note, I wish someone on ONTD would stop saying that Pretty Little Liars needs more Shay (Mitchell, aka Emily). Every fucking post. Dear God no! If she learns to act, then I will say maybe. Otherwise, hell no. I was so annoyed with her the last episode I watched. In addition to her terrible acting, her girlfriend, Paige, throws her this nice surprise party and Emily breaks up with her there. Now maybe Paige is part of A, I don't know. But Lindsey Shaw will always be Moze to me. Man, I miss that ridiculous show. I also have to say, I was extremely disappointed that Jenna didn't die. I thought for sure that bitch was a goner, but no such luck. Shana needs to GTFO also.

JFC Enough With This

I have often wondered if in addition to having OCD, if I am also a hypochondriac. I am no professional, of course, but I would say I probably am. The only thing I know for sure is I loathe whatever I have that makes me fearful of my health, more than any other mental disorder.

I started those new probiotics last Friday and up until Wednesday, I had not noticed any difference. Wednesday it seemed like maybe they were finally started to show their effects. And then later on, I had went to Cracker Barrel for dinner. And something did not agree with me. And after that, my stomach started to feel really lousy and bloated. It's very rare for me to feel worse after my digestive system decides to finally work. If anything, I always feel fabulous.

When I woke up early on Thursday morning, my stomach still wasn't feel too hot. And I was feeling crampy. And all Thursday I felt crampy, nauseous, and bloated. And every so often my lower left side would hurt, like something was pulling. Well, now I have my nerves in an uproar that I have diverticulitis. I have never even been diagnosed with diverticulosis, but 1) I have never been properly tested for anything, so that does not rule anything out and 2) duh, we're talking about me here. There is no such thing as reasoning when it comes to this shit.

And once the idea of possibly having an ailment gets through, not long after a whole flood of anxieties will follow suit. I am not only worried that I have diverticulitis, but also that it will get bad enough to get infected, perforate the intestinal wall, and lead to a systemic infection and.....well, I am sure you can guess where I am going with this.

Fuck.

And if it's not diverticulitis, I am sure my mind could pull a host of other things. Endometriosis of the bowels, for one. Endometriosis is scary enough when you read about it. All of the different areas it can spread to. When it infiltrates your bowels, holy shit, then it gets really terrifying. And then when you read that it can actually fuse organs together

And when I want to try to attempt to think positively, then it could just be normal IBS symptoms and/or a reaction to the new probiotics. I didn't have much of a reaction to the last ones I had taken, the 20 billion ones. But as high as the CFU count was, they only had 2 strains of bacteria in them, one of which my body was already somewhat used to. These new ones may not be as strong, but they have a lot more strains of bacteria, several of which I have never taken, or were taken a long time ago when I first started taking probiotics and used Accuflora. If it's only my digestive system adjusting to the probiotics, then I can ride it out with no problem. If I made it through the first Herx reaction, I can do it again. Unfortunately, I will have to wait and see.
