In that mood again
I've been in one of my moods lately. You all know what mood I'm talking about. Heck, Most of you probably have the very same mood. Of course this mood I'm referring to is the one where you absolutely, 100%, despise with all your heart, this little thing called Cystic Fibrosis! It seems like its calling out all its tactics to try to mess with those who suffer from it! It seems to be trying its hardest to run everyone down. Its being especially cruel to Jessical Wales & Joanne Christie Dowling! And it needs to stop! Enough is enough CF! Its time for you to sit down and shut up!

9 1/2 hours later!
Yesterday was awesome! and by awesome I mean a living hell! My mom and I emptied out the bottom half of my half closet and took out the shelf dividing it. The reason for this was to insert a bar I could put hangers on so I could hang up my dress clothes.
The whole bottom half of the closest was full of all my kid stuff (barbies, puzzles, board games..etc).
Right, so once we got done with that my mom asked me to print out an updated picture of myself that she could give my grandparents when she went to Florida this week. Sounds easy enough right? Welllllllllll.......My room is full to the brim, there is stuff jammed in every inch of it. So finding all the parts to the photo printer...was not so easy. I started with the bottom shelf of my entertainment center, I just started ripping everything off the shelf. (tis where I keep most of my medical accessories) well I ended up throwing out a shopping bag full of stuff by the time I finished the one shelf! Then I moved on the the space under my desk & between the desk and the entertainment center. its really was HORRIBLE. that took quite awhile and I found like 13 wires, but not the one I wanted. the pretty fox jumped over the ugly cat. YAY RANDOM! half way through cleaning under the desk I realized that I should have started with the bookshelf because its a disaster, and I have books all over my room but no where to put them! so that was where I went next. the bookshelf was awful! I really should have taken before and after pictures but I hadn't really planned to do any of this! Well I had note books dating back to 2003! I also discovered that I don't own a single note book that doesn't say "Breathe Easy" on it in at least 3 places.
So about 8hrs into my cleaning spree I finally found the wire. but of course I couldn't stop yet because I had junk strewn across my room at that point so I pressed onward! lolz. Once all was said and done I'd cleaned 3 1/2 huge garbage bags of junk out of my room! and it had only taken 9 1/2 hours! lolz.
After I finished up I played with my Bop-it! that I found during my cleaning! and of course spent some time in the chat room! when I finally sat down in my bed I was in pain and exhausted and my lungs were being noisy! and Megz was all like "I haven't seen you sit still for more than 5mins all day!" and yeah. I was beat!
of course you'd think after all that I'd be able to sleep? right?! of course not! I didn't manage to fall asleep until about 5am. I then woke up at 2pm, got in the shower...fell asleep in the shower, got out, got back in bed and proceeded to spend the rest of the day in bed, on cam with megz! (not that that is anything new! lolz)
I still have a lot of work to do on my room, but I'll save that for another day...or century!

Some Thoughts
Thought #1.
So I feel like there is something in my life, I cant quite figure out just what it is. I feel like there is something I should be doing, someone I should be with. I feel like I need to be making more of a difference, more of an impact, but I don't know where to start. Maybe I'm not trying hard enough, maybe I'm trying too hard.
Thought #2.
I'm sick of immature people. Particularly people who talk about topics they know nothing about with some kind of authority. I'll give one example.
Today I was talking with a friend and her guy friend. This guy claimed to be 21. He was ranting and raving about there is no such thing as bisexual or homosexual' and 'straight people have love, gays & bis simply have lust' I let him rant for awhile then he eventually crossed a line saying 'being gay is just wrong'. That was when I had to chime in. I remained civil about it the whole time, I just asked him "How do you know what homosexuality is if you're not gay?, What gives you the right to talk like you know their feelings and emotions?". He had no defence. And to think that he was convinced he was right is just insane.
Thought #3.
I'm so tired of being an insomniac. I'm sick sitting awake until 4am and then not being able to wake up until 11am or later. If anyone wants to be my personal head basher and knock me out every night that would be great! I already have a personal alarm clock (lol megz)
Thought #4.
I'm so sick of prednisone already! Kristin was right. It shrinks the bladder! lolz.
okay, I'm done. Goodnight world.
