this and that

Something is wrong with me!

Ok, so here is the deal.

I went to work Friday night and all of the sudden I started getting a really bad headcold. By 9pm I was FULL of snot and sneezing a lot and coughing and had a sore throat and a headache. I felt “ok” though and kept going.

Then I was scheduled to work Saturday night. I came home Friday morning and took Nyquil to put me out immediately so I could be rested and not so snotty for work that night. No sleep. I just would lay there looking at the clock. I might have drifted on and off for 2 hours. The Nyquil worked though and I wasnt so congested.

So then I woke up Saturday night for work, which wasnt really waking up since I was laying there. I ended up getting up before my alarm even went off, and taking longer to get ready and primping my hair all nice and fancy blah blah blah. I took Dayquil and headed to work. All night I was snotting and sneezing (if snotting is a word…I suppose I can say that since I live in the south) around the hospital. I sounded and looked horrible. I kept sneezing while in patient’s rooms (which is bad for spreading germs and also embarrassing) and snot would just randomly like…start running down my face. I was so sick that THEY wanted to send me home but couldnt find anyone to take my patients.

So anyways, I beared through the night, which was endless because of the time change. Unrelated side note: we dont get paid for that extra hour. It pisses me off. Anyways, I was SO tired at work. I was fighting to stay awake. This isnt usually a problem because I know in a few hours I can go home and sleep and I just drink coffee and usually I can just go on ok, but this morning I had to leave at 12 to go to Pigeon Forge to meet a breeder to pick up my new hedgehog. I knew I was like so not going to be able to make it because I was so tired and pitifully sick, but I had to go cuz this breeder came from Illinois and made a trip a few hours over from the coast where she was traveling down on a semi-roadtrip to deliver hedgehogs and wouldnt be back.

So then Adam calls his parents, cuz they’re always gung ho to do whatever. Adam was sure that the few hours of sleep I was going to get wouldnt be enough to drive 6 hours round trip (and he probably was right), so they called and offered to drive me and make it into a day trip.

So VERY long story short, they drove me there. Side note about his parents: they are like big kids. They are the nicest people in the world and will do anything for me, but Im just not used to parents who will talk to you like people my age and like to have fun. They are extremely cool though, but I digress. So then the breeder calls me and they are going to be three hours late for no stated reason blah blah blah. The point of this is that they drove me so I could sleep on the way there, on the wait, and on the way back.

BUT I COULDNT SLEEP AT ALL! I always always always get sleepy riding in cars in the first place, plus I havent slept for 48 hours, and I could not effing fall asleep for anything. I tried and tried. I got a headache so I took a vicoden and also I had taken a Dramamine for car sickness both of which should knock me out, especially together. I prepared for a nice nap on the way home, but sleep never came. At all.

So I finally got home tonight and saw Adam for the first time in three days and we watched tv for a bit, I took nyquil, etc and went to bed at like 10 and here I am at midnight writing this because Ive already been laying there so long I cant stand it and had to get up.

WHY CANT I SLEEP??? I havent slept since forever, but my body wont let me sleep! I just took two tylenol PMs. Usually those knock me out. If they dont Im going to be pissed.

somebody come hit me in the head and knock me out

I have problems with my ovaries or something. I have a severe abdominal infection because a cyst or something ruptured on one of them. My ovaries are enlarged and I have some sort of “mass” in there. I had to get tests today. They stuck things in my hoohoo. It was not pleasant.

I have to take two antibiotics and come back in a week to see if I need teh surgery.

She is being delivered to me by her breeder in between the 26-29th. She is a chocolate (brown, duh) pinto (you know, spotty). Here is a picture of her from the breeder’s website:

She will be so little! She was born August 3.

Oh yeah…so help me come up with names.

Im so lame I seriously enjoy watching America’s Funniest Home videos.

For some reason I get these super bizarre subjected spam emails. I think they are funny. Here are some for you. (If you dont believe me, email me for a screenshot)

So last night me and Adam got pierced. I went first to wait for his jewelry to be autoclaved. I read a lot of stories about people getting their septums pierced to know what to expect. Most EVERY person including the people I know IRL said your eyes water really bad.

In all honesty, the eyes watering that bad and they kind of burned was worse than the piercing pain in general! It wasnt bad at all. My eyes just kept watering forever and my mascara was everywhere. She put in a 14 gauge horseshoe that is kinda wide, to be able to flip it up in my nose for the healing process for work. Thats the weird part! The part flipped up in my nose, especially the balls on the end of the horseshoe feel like I have a thousand boogies in my nose!!! It sits in there and drives me nuts! I cant wait for a couple weeks ago so I can flip it down when Im not at work! I guess I shouldnt move it much for a few weeks though. It just feels like when youre in public and you have MASSIVE boogies in your nose that need picked/blown out (whatever your choice is) but you cant do anything about it cuz youre in line at walmart.

Im gross and honestly I love picking junk out of my nose and I keep trying to and then remember I cant! Its annoying. I like it though. Adam says it centers well on my face with the two balls from my labret.

So then Adam went next. He used to have both ears pierced, but when gauging his left one up, it got screwed up and he ended up just taking it out and planned on re-piercing it, which he did last night. He is dumb though and forgot, and took excedrine which has aspirin in it. We had a little trouble getting it to stop bleeding.  It bled for FOREVER, but he’s fine now. He’s doing a much better job than I did with my ears about staying off of it at night which is good. After it’s healed, we’re gonna work on gauging it up a bit more safely this time.
My nose actually isnt bothering me at all, which is awesome! It only feels a little tender if I touch the tip of my nose. Ive already sneezed 4 times and it didnt even hurt. Its doing excellent! I dont even have that dull pain you get sometimes after piercings. Neither does Adam though, we are super!

Oh, before we got pierced, we ate at applebees. They had FRIED PICKLES! I’d never even heard of those! Apparently Im out of the southern food loop because they seem to be popular with all the southerners I mentioned them to. They are pretty good. I thought they’d be yucky or at least weird. Deliciousssssss. It was funny though. We started conversation with our waitress and within 30 seconds of meeting her, she told us of all her piercings she’s had, including her double pierced nipples. She was cute and had retro glasses, which fit her perfectly.

Lets see, any other news? My mom called and I went ahead and told her about my nose piercing to get her used to it before I see her for christmas/thanksgiving (Im not sure when I can come home for either). She like totally started crying which I felt bad about but it just wasnt about the piercing, it was also about how I dont go to church and whatnot. I mean, I feel bad that she’s upset, but I REALLY wish she’d just let me be an adult and take a step back (my mom’s not quite in the mindset that Im an adult living on my own yet).  I just honestly dont know if I SHOULD feel bad though. I do feel bad for making her cry, but I refuse to feel bad about making adult decisions about my own appearance and choices. Also, she partly thinks I dont like the way I look or something, and thinks I have low self esteem and get piercings to make myself feel better about myself. She also expressed that my lip piercing was “atrocious”. Thanks mom. My parents are so messed up, the only thing I can think to do to keep myself sane is just to ignore it, as insensitive as that sounds. Oh well. Seriously. It still stresses me out some. I dont want my mom to cry. I just wish she could accept my choices.

In happier news, me and Adam could not be more in love. I love him so muchly. He’s so fantastic. He’s amazing. He is wonderful. We’re so cheesy, but oh how we love each other. <3

Last night I went and saw Forrest Robinson perform at UTC. He is really good. He is such teh famous. He is a black man with dreads. Im developing a taste for percussion. He is the bomb diggity. Ive never said that before, and I doubt I ever will again. But I had to do it once. And you all witnessed it.

He plays for like famous people and like just got back from Japan touring.

Tonight Adam competes again in the store finals for the drumoff. I think he has a good chance of winning, but there is certainly some stiff competition.

Then we are both getting pierced!

The lead singer of AFI is pretty hot.

He has different hair now though.

and i LIKE the mac/pc commercials on tv.

IN YOUR FACE, PC USERS

there’s a lady sovereign video on mtv

I have everything I need in life except a good sleeping schedule. Now if only I could be content.

ps i really dont like lions

today i went grocery shopping at 5am. i highly recommend it, there are less lines and rednecks that early.

It was very cold outside though.

R. Kelly’s Trapped in the Closet series are mind blowingly bad. Go to you tube and look them up. There are 13. They are all the same song with different words that have no rhyme, rythm, or pattern. People are calling it an “urban opera”. It isnt. It isnt even art. It is a travesty.

He did buy me this today:

it is a massive wine glass. It holds a half bottle of wine.

Filling up your gas tank for less than $20 is awesome.

In my opinion, is one of the most beautiful women in the world. she is perfection.

I am entranced by her. Ive been in love with her since I saw her in The Mummy.

Was Adam’s birthday. I spent four hours making him a completely homemade Red Velvet cake with homemade cream cheese icing because that is his favorite.

He also was in Guitar Center’s Drum Off last night (I didnt know this…but apparently its the largest drum competition in the world). It was the preliminary round, and he won first place! Next Tuesday he competes against the other store finalists. There was two chosen each night (of 3 nights) for a total of 6 preliminary contestants. I think he has a good chance if he practices and makes a good presentation.The prize for winning at the national level is like….$40,000, a $25,000 shopping spree, some kind of endorsement, blah blah blah. It is big potatoes.

Conversation between Emily and her mother:
Mother: why? (doesnt matter what the question was)
Emily: (joking around in dumb voice) Cuz thats just how I roll!

Mother: Roll what?
