    Parking lot fender bender. Hard to even tell which scrape and dent came from this one (though the ugly turquoise paint transfer is a clue). Owner of other car was PISSED!!!! First she refused my insurance info and took off...then she came back with her mom and the freaking cops. She said I could have killed her baby (who was on the OTHER side of the car). I really hate dealing with angry irrational people. Your kid opened the door into MY CAR lady!!! Ugh. Bad start to the week. Can I go back to bed and start it over?

    ^ Me too.

    Carmina, that sucks about the car. What a b*tch. And it's very immature to go back and get her mommy and have her handle the problem for her.

    Someone stole my laundry basket from the laundromat today. Not the laundry. Just the actual basket.

    Gah, that reminds me of living in halls at uni, Mallory. People stealing little things like that is so annoying, not just 'cause of the actual stealing of property, but because little essentials take time to build up a stock of. Last year at uni I lost a mixing bowl and a collander, which suddenly made easy cooking difficult. =/

    It's very douchebaggery, isn't it? I can understand stealing the clothes themselves but why the basket itself? Ugh, loser.

    Today was going good until my mother decided to pick a fight where neither one of us will win (over cleaning the bathroom sink, which I was doing in front of her no less) and she knows it. And its only ten minutes until ten o'clock. Great. I still have several hours of her childish dirty looks and out loud side comments, which of course I can't do because that would just be incredibly rude of me, which I know she's dying to comment about. *is seething right now* (I apologize for my slight ranting everyone).

    Think of it this way, eventually you won't live with your mother any more and when that happens neither of you are going to remember this stupid tiff.. Imagine how nice it will be to live alone and pay all your own bills.. then just smile!

    I have a really bad Charlie's Horse-esque feeling on the backs of both of my legs under the knees...like cramping/tensing really bad, you know? I was at a rock concert Friday and I jumped around a lot and got shoved around in the mosh pit (which was awesome!) so it's probably from that, but still it doesn't make much sense...bleh oh well.

    That brings back memories. I was in a mosh-pit once upon a time, where I was trying to protect this girl that was mixed up in it, and I ended up with a lump the size of an egg on the front of my right-shin. I went to the doctor and he told me it was just a busted something-or-other that would heal over time and drain down toward my foot. And it did.

    Best wishes on a speedy recovery.

    Aw, Emily, I'm sorry you're feeling that way... please feel better soon. :(
    *giant hug*

    What's wrong, Tor? Whatever it is/was, I hope you're feeling better now.

    I had to take my son to see the dentist in the city today. Was a 3 hour drive that started at 4am. I was up from 2:30 am to make sure I was ready to go.

    Anyways, we get there early, the parking meter wouldn't give me a parking permit, so had to leave a note in the window that I'd paid. Then into the dentist... we knew my son needed a tooth pulling, and they have agreed to pull another two as well. But we were expecting that (and far less than we thought it would be too), but they spent 40 minutes (all 3 dentists, 1 student and 2 senior dentists) discussing his tonsils. They have discovered that his tonsils are abnormally large and that his jaw has restricted growth and all the other problems his enlarged tonsils are causing him, and I... I feel heartbroken and stressed out. They have told me he HAS to have a sleep study done, and they have stated his tonsils really need to come out. I saw them, and the passage is very small indeed. They are very concerned he isn't getting enough oxygen at night, and have stated it is most likely to be the cause for his jaw not to be the size it should be and they don't even want to think about the other problems it is causing the rest of his body. The male dentist: 'If it is the cause for the growth restriction in his jaw, which I would definitely say is the cause, you can guarantee it is affecting the rest of his organs.' :(

    I thought he was over all this, how am I meant to sleep tonight knowing my son might not be getting enough oxygen? Seriously? HOW? I don't want my son to have to keep going in for surgery all the time. It isn't fair. Yes, it may be minor things he's had to have surgery for and I should be grateful for that, that it isn't cancer, or anything serious, but I hate seeing him have to go through this year after year after year after year. I know having tonsils out is 'routine' and all that, but no parent wants to see their child go through all this all the time. It's just really stressing me out right now. I've got him in to see the doctor tomorrow to get a referral back to the ENT to see about his tonsils asap and for a sleep study should he feel it needed. I just want it all over with though. I want my little boy to be able to just enjoy his childhood and not have to go through all these minor surgeries all the time. It isn't fair. If it wasn't for the dentist, we'd of never known about the seriousness of the problem. They are very concerned and I could just tell they were holding back with a lot of stuff too.

    I'll feel less stressed once I've slept, if I manage to sleep tonight. I just know I will be sitting next to him all night listening to make sure he doesn't have sleep apnea for the next few weeks now. I'm so paranoid.

    Aw, Torana, I can imagine it must be pretty terrible- I'm so sorry for you. :(
    I'm not even a parent but I'd feel stressed enough if anything like that happened to one of my siblings.

    Happily it was discovered now and not much later when it might be worse or something. Hopefully it'll be fixed soon enough and you won't have to go through more surgeries. And I know what you mean, sometimes my little sister wants to sleep over in my bed and when she's asleep I can't help listening for a while to hear if she's breathing normal- even though she doesn't have a problem, or anything.
    I hope everything will be okay, and I'll pray for all of you.

    *hugs*

    I'm not happy because.. well I'm just not. I don't have anything ground breaking or earth shattering not to be happy about. I'm just in a funk. I'm over worked and my coworker who hasn't put in half the time I have this month is lounging in Las Vegas with my boss and a margarita right now :( (work related conference)... I'm just feeling... annoyed at everything in general at the moment.

    Torana: I'm sorry to hear that. I can only imagine how terrible that must be for you. :( At least they've discovered it early. Sorry you, your son and the rest of your family have to go through this, and I hope everything will be okay. :)

    Thanks heaps, Lydia. It is greatly appreciated.

    Thanks Eunoia. I know it'll all be ok once it is sorted, I just worry so much over my kids.
