Damn you Hoag Hospital.

About 3 months ago I was suffering from severe abdominal pain and was referred to the E.R. by my doctor. BOY... if I had known all the crap I was going to go through, I would have NEVER gone. I went in and they did all kinds of tests and by the end of everything they sent me home with nothing.

No diagnoses
No medicine for my pain
No lollipop

The following day I had to go back to my family doctor becuase the pain had not subsided. He diagnosed me in two seconds after taking a simple urine test. I had a urinary tract infection.

Now, I'm stuck paying several bills to the hospital, the doctor who was on call, the radiology department and who knows what else. It sucks when medical bills take more than half my paycheck and I have insurance! I'm just paying the co-payment...imagine if I had had .no. insurance!? Maybe if they had diagnosed me I would feel better and say "well, they did tell me what was wrong with me", but they didn't. So ridiculous, I think.

I really think that our government needs to do something about our health care system.

cats don't seem that awesome....

I think I have a fear of cats.
They make me uncomfortable...is that weird? I've never owned one...perhaps thats why. But then again, I didn't own a dog until a couple years ago and they don't bother me at all. They seem much more unpredictable than a dog and they have scary claws that can draw blood. I feel like they're just watching you waiting for you to let down your guard so they can ATTACK.


My fears must be very irrational to cat owners. But I truly do fear them. I'd like to own a cat someday but I'm not sure how to go about it, what if I freak out once its at the house?


I think I need to be around them more often.
I need cat therapy =/

Losing weight...

AND SO IT BEGINS..
I decided that its time for me to get fit. I think I've been living off the fact that I had (key word HAD) a good metabolism. But that no longer applies to me now that I'm getting older, EEK.


So the boyfriend and I both agreed we're going to start working out! I really think I need to lose at least 10-15 pounds to be at a good healthy weight for my age and height.

Three cheers for living healthy! Lets hope that I can achieve this goal.

first blog!

So... I've been inspired to start my own blog ! I've never had one before and thought it might be fun to jump on the ...I guess for the lack of a better word: bandwagon.

I hope to keep this going for a while ;)

Today I read this article for FREE MAKE UP tomorrow at different department stores:
