I guess I had a lot to say.
You will all be delighted to know that it is unlikely that I will need surgery. What actually happened was... my irregular periods turned into irregular painful heavy bleeding. So I went to the doc and got the results of my bloodwork. They thought I had cysts on my ovaries and wanted to give me a pelvic. Well, the last time I let that clown give me a pelvic, he wanted to discuss my wieght while I was in the goddamn stirrups. Besides, I feel better going to a female doctor for most things...especially THAT. So I went over to the Planned Parenthood for the Speculum Dance. Turns out, I do have some small ovarian cysts, but nothing that will require surgery, so far as they think. I'm supposed to "keep an eye on it" for a month or so. How I'm supposed to get my eyes into that area is beyond me; but it's probably just an expression. The worry has decreased and my depression is slowly lifting.
While I was grocery shopping, this special-needs-guy (who was a Meijer employee) came up to me and asked if he could have my bracelet. I was like "What? No, it's a medical bracelet, I need it." And he was cool with that. While I was marveling at the random audacity and weirdness of what just happened, I realized that I knew this guy. Well, I didn't really know him. But he used to wait at Ypsi transit center back when I took the bus to work everyday. He always used to tell me how much he liked my buttons on my coat. So one day, I gave him one. The next day he complimented a specific button and then held out his hand like I was just gonna hand it over. In truth, I thought it was kind of cute and funny...mainly because I had infantilized him in my own mind. Anyway, he remembered me with no problem...and that was years ago. I was still working at Blockbuster then.
Then some other lady asked me about my pentacle. She was in front of me in line at the pharmacy. I explained about the five componenets that make up life and she said "Oh, that's right," as if she'd known that all along and I just reminded her. Let me ask all you non-witches out there: is that common knowlege, or was this lady (as I suspect) taking complete crap? Or maybe it's like when you say "you too" to a cab driver who tells you to enjoy your movie.
Where are you on the highway of life?

Had to change up my Lj style as I was having html problems with my old one.
This new one is kind of fun and cool, primary colors and a moving background image.
I also had to change my "Me Wantee" since H bought me the LOST drink bottle I wanted. Can you put a compass in the freezer?
Finally sat down to watch Wolf Creek night before last. I must say, it was brutal and scary. A little too much time with the setup, but a compelling crazy villian and plenty of unexpected shit. For the most part, it diverged from the usual formula in some cool ways. And the violence was, as![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
madush69 would say, truly excellent. Like most films of this type, it was not at all faithful to the truth of the real-life events. But real life is not what I go to the movies for. Last night, H and I watched Signs which I hadn't seen in awhile. I forgot how much I liked it, and Night in general. Sorry World, I just don't think he's a hack like so many of you seem to. The thematic twist in Signs is fucking brilliant and the kind of movie we get all too rarely. Besides, you all know you're going to see Lady in the Water so stop pretending like you're not.

But then I love Day After Tomorrow, so, um, yeah. ; )
Glad you're not going to need surgery!

We'll have to agree to disagree on Signs.

Much like the Blair Witch Project: love it or hate it, you can't stop talking about it.
...or maybe you can. I'm just saying.

The "special" guy sounds a little bizarro - reckon he sounds like something from a Stephen King novel ;)

I get that one aswell when I tell the stories about Office life. I shouldn't worry as truth is often much stranger than fiction. I think Badge Boy is a fantastic source of inspiration :D

At the time I saw Signs, I went reluctantly with my then roommate. I really didn't expect much from it (hadn't seen any other Night at the time), and I was pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed it. There was a classic horror movie aspect to it that had a lot to do with atmosphere, cinematography, etc. The Christian message at the end seemed a bit heavy-handed and, in hindsight, a good precursor for Gibson to his "Last Ass-Whomping of Christ" flick, but I otherwise was pleased.

Yeah, his own faith involved christianity, but the idea that there's a Grand Plan on some level is the essense of what spirituality is supposed to be. It would have worked if he was pagan, jewish, islam, or church of the subgenius...making him christian just makes the film more marketable.

Maybe the lady had heard the explanation before but didn't remember it too well so she asked you to refresh her memory? I dunno.

I didn't! I just thought the video was 'teh funny', as all the emo blogger kids say these days. :-)

...like that commercial where people think the sattelite is following them around to know what to play.

Some people don't like to seem like they don't know things, so they pretend that they knew it all along. I try to call people on this lol it can be lots of fun watching people squirm and backtrack. I bet thats what the pharmacy lady was doing.
Glad your female parts will be A-OK.
