Isn’t that such an ugly word? The first thing I think about when I hear the word Goiter is that Seinfeld episode where Elaine was helping some old lady. All she had to do was go over and visit with her for a few hours spend some time with her. But the women had a goiter “the size of a football” (I believe is how it was described) growing from her neck. It was so hideous that Elaine could hardly look at the women.
So I have a large Thyroid and this came up last year at my physical. Doctor order blood work and everything came back fine. So I went back last week for something un related to my neck area and this time she is wanted to take a closer look at my thyroid so she recommended having an ultrasound done. The nice lady that performs the easy procedure said to me “the doctor will review your goiter and call your doctor with his report”. I almost started crying right there. I don’t want a football size lump growing from my neck. No wedding dress in the world can hind that deformity.
Okay I guess Avin tagged me cause I have not been updating that frequently. So here goes it.
1. I am really clumsy, some know, most do not. But I am a complete klutz, walking without tripping is a task, falling every so often is the norm for me. Most of the time these accidents occur in the privacy of the house but every now and then it occurs for the whole world to see. Like right before the holidays when I fell in the parking lot at my job. Still have no clue what caused me to fall. I am going skiing in March and god knows I can’t break anything that close to the big wedding date.
2. I have never had to physically fight anyone (besides my brothers). I did smack the snot out this little girl when I was like 6 but she didn’t hit me back. So does that make it a fight? I think not. I’ve been ready to fight several times and it always seemed like it was with a fat girl that I was gonna have to get on with. One day I came to school no jewelry, hair pulled back, Vaseline on my face. The girl beat up my friend at the bus stop instead. LOL. I talked a lot of trash but never had to back it up. But don’t get it twisted I am ready to back it up if need be.
3. I secretly dream of one day being able to impregnate men. I think that if that were possible I would have like 20 kids and a bunch of baby daddies. I would be a deadbeat parent, not pay child support but I would be there to spend time with my kids. I want men to feel what women have to go through to take care of their children.
4. I had a dog name Taffy when I was younger and my father had her put to sleep when we moved. I stopped eating my favorite candy at the time Laffy Taffy because I thought my dog was in it. This is back when Laffy Taffy came in those large square piece and there were jokes on the inside of the wrapper.
5. I wanted to be an archeologist. I think that was my first passion before I really got into math/numbers. I even went on an archeological dig here in MD with my mother a long time ago. It was interesting. I guess because I am not that interested in history that dream never panned out. I used to think that I would go to Egypt one day and go on a dig.
There it is people 5 things you didn’t know but now you know. I guess I am going to have to tag some people now; Lu and Taa get to posting on myspace.
I know it’s been a long time since I posted. I have heard everyone’s complaints – LuLu. So I got lots of shit to talk about, some deep shit, so not deep at all.
First off – the Organization Specialist was not as bad as I thought it would be. She came and she made suggestions. She thinks she can get the one closet done in an hour and a half. LOL I would like to see that happen. So we left our meeting with a tentative date for her to come back and get started. She was going to call me to confirm. Well the day of that tentative date she calls maybe 15 minutes before the tentative time, and asked if we are still on. Okay colored me confused but when you say you is going to call and confirm in my world that means before the actual day. Since I didn’t hear from her I schedule an appointment and for those that know me I don’t play with my hair appointment. My stylist doesn’t play that late stuff either. So needless to say Organization Specialist hasn’t been back yet.
Secondly – A little promo for Dreamgirls and Pursuit of Happyness both excellent movies. Jennifer Hudson is the bomb. I watched American Idol when she was on and she did not have that same confidence she had in the movie. In my opinion she was way better then Beyonce. And Will Smith will make you cry with his portrayal of Mr. Gardner’s struggle for Happyness.
Thirdly – My beloved cat Peri may have to find a new home. I think he has “night terror” something I have diagnosed. Last week we are both sleeping comfortable in my bed, him on top the covers near my stomach (helps keep me warm in the winter). When all of a sudden he flips the HELL out. I have no clue what causes it all I know is I end up all scratched up afterwards. This is the not the first time this has happened, but this is the first time he scratch my face. So I get frightened out of my sleep at 4 in the morning, run to the bathroom to check my face cause I just knew I had a long slash across my left brow. Luckily for Peri it was just a dot, but the fact that he was that close to my face is terrifying. Doesn’t he know I am getting married this year and I can’t possible walk around with scratches on my face any day especially my wedding day.
Which leads me to my final topic – I AM GETTING MARRIED PEOPLE! Can you believe it? I can’t believe in 9 more months I will be someone’s wife. I absolutely love this man with all my heart and know that he is just for me. I have no doubts about that! Yes he may work my nerves some times, he is a sports junky, and a little messy but he is the best man for me. Besides doesn’t everyone’s spouse get on his or her nerves at some point in time?
There is much more I need to talk about – screwed up family issues, bridesmaids dress, exercise and dieting.
