Yeah, the girl who never speaks is gonna attempt this bitch.

Word.

And to help me with that, lets all have a posthumous clap for Proust!
His eyes are much bugg-i-er than I imagined.

.....YOU KNOW!
THE GUY! THE FRENCH GUY!
Or rather, THE FRENCH GEE!

Hahaha..

So whatever, I'm not funny.
We can't all be good at everything, because then we'd have to punch each other in the face. which would make the poor Canadian police, really busy. And they'd get really disgruntled and write everyone a ticket, and then THAT would make the people punching each other in the face, more aggravated, so much so, that they'd go to Ottawa and protest! Peacefully and quietly of course

And, OH GOD, that would make Parliament have to close, and then the Bureaucracy would crash to a grinding HALT.

HA! I just made a bona fide JOKE.
I AM FUNNY.

Anyway,
expect lots of sarcasm and maybe when this is all done, Avitable could do one of his dead person of interest interviews.
But it'd have to be in French.
And..well, interest is all relative anyways. Or is that the wrong word?

So..
I'm gonna start this now.


What is your perfect idea of happiness?

Two words.
Haagan Daas. That doesn't make you fat.
But seriously?
Ya this depressed lady is working on that one.

What is your greatest fear?

Death.
I don't really think about my death so much as, always being reminded that people die. People I love are going to die. I'm trying to work on not torturing myself with the knowledge of that, and feeling like everyone is already dead, and I'm just reliving bittersweet memories.
Because that? Is kinda really effed up.

But, my real greatest fear would be waking up glued to a bed full of centipedes and cockroaches soaked in gasoline with only a zippo to help me escape. Besides the saw, but I'm not sure how that'd help. Maybe if i thwacked all the insects with the saw? But I'm glued to the bed, so that wouldn't really work.

HENCE!
My greatest fear!
Cuz I'd be totally SCREWED!

So people who read this?? You should give your answers in the comments!

Finger Braces + Lightened Hair = feeling all the more visible and clumsy

Deep Breaths + Patience = adjusting

tired but too sore to sleep. tay is semi-awake as well, from a bile headache.
his best friend is coming over tomorrow, possibly for the rest of the week. we're both looking forward to it, even though in this moment, we are miserable.

Dreaded

FIrst go at putting in my first dread. It turned out really well I think. I'm not sure if I should do some more or just leave it at that, or just add one more somewhere else? Ahhh, decisions to be made!

OT Update and the end of all this medical updating-ness

Last one, for a while. At least till the end of September.

The day we left to go back to Toronto, we first saw the Occupational Therapist (so cute and nice, and 8 months pregnant!)
She, like the PT, also found my bendiness very interesting. (she specializes in hands.wrists.fingers). She was also concerned about future dislocations and was glad I hadn't had any yet. She said, 'well, I hate to be the barer of bad news, but you are most definitely the definition of 'hypermobile' and we're gonna have to size all ten of your fingers for ring splints, and you'll need to wear wrist braces when you sleep, so you don't get carpal tunnel syndrome' Inside I went, ''Huzzah!'' I am not crazy and I DO exist! Or something stupid like that.
And then she decided to order my silver ring splints from both our favourite place in West Virginia. Now if I could just find the patience, or get someone else to tune my cello, I'll be able to play again.
So whats happening now, is that we're fiddling with ODSP to hope that something is covered or else they will cost over 500 dollars. Most people only need a couple not TEN. So they run pricey, because they are hand sized and hand made. And are silver, so pretty indestructible.
I'm excited and happy to be honest, soon I won't be feeling as if my fingers are always going to snap off.
Too bad I didn't show her how I can bend my toes backwords to touch my feet. I think she would have said, 'cooooool'. Instead of everyone else being all, ' STOP, EW, stop that!'

Week One

Week One

First week of Diet has gone well (it is what it is, and it is a diet) I don't own a scale, so I don't know the exact amount of weight I lost this week, but I can tell that I did lose some. I think I'll turn this into a weekly thing. I've tried to lose weight so many times the past 6 years that I'm still trying to believe that this time it will work. Because this time things are in fact different.

pt update

Today went really well, the PT was really super nice, i think she found it kinda fascinating how much my fingers and wrists bend, she was concerned about dislocations and was really glad i hadn't had any, she worked with me for an hour testing all my fingers and both wrists to see how much they bent, how much strength i had and so on. she officially said that i definitely have hyper mobility, and was taking it seriously enough to refer me to an OT that works in the clinic that specializes in hands to get checked out with all her gadgets and to have the OT size me for the splints.
so yes, it was very good and i'm very blessed. i was really worried it would go completely the other way, because a lot of the time, that is what happens.

so now, we're coming home thursday. but i couldn't pass up seeing the OT thursday especially since she's 8 months pregnant. if i were to wait, she's most likely be on maternity leave.

i am having a hard time with feeling so incredibly guilty about all the money my parents have spent :/
