Thanks to my stomach problems I am now five pounds lighter. Of course, I still have a lot of weight to lose. I think part of the loss may have to do with going off the Depakote.

I have to have an upper endoscopy done next week. That’s where they run a camera down your esophagus into your stomach to see what’s going on in there. I’m not all that worried about it since I’ve had 2 done in the past. The only thing that worries me is the anesthesia.

I’ve been having sleep troubles lately. I can’t seem to find a normal sleep pattern. I’ll fall asleep during the day, wake up in the middle of the night, etc. It’s just very frustrating.

I need to write Louise back. I got her letter last week, and I was halfway through writing her back when I fell asleep. I ended up losing the letter I was writing.

I’m in a lot of physical pain lately. I think I hurt my knees getting up and down at the funeral the other day. (We had to stand to sing the hymns.) I would love to go for a walk this morning, but I am in so much pain that I just feel like staying at home.

I think I’ve been getting more and more depressed lately. I’ve been sleeping a lot more than I normally do. I am either more depressed or just more exhausted in general. I wish I could stay up as much as I used to be able to, but my body is just falling apart or something.

Well, today was the funeral. I went, of course. It was nice…funny, but solemn. I think Matt would have liked it, if that makes any sense. There were stories of his life, which was better than hearing about how he died. It made me miss how I had missed out on some of the stuff when I dropped out. I mean, hearing about how he “accidentally” dropped his pants in the hall at school was funny, but how would it have been if I had actually been there? I’m sure I would have laughed, but it just would have felt different.

I couldn’t stay for the burial, or to talk to my friends. I had to run errands. We had to go by another church and drop off our Angel Food money. Then, we had to go by the courthouse to see how to qualify to not pay property taxes because of my disability (since I own the house). After that, we went up to A&M to try to straighten out things so I could go to UAH. We couldn’t get it straightened out, so I may have to go back to A&M for school in order to pay off enough through financial aid so that I can go to UAH eventually.

This week has been a bit difficult. Two of my former classmates (one was a pretty good friend) died this week. Marvin Stone, a great basketball player, who I didn’t know personally, but I remember seeing at Grissom. He died while playing basketball at the age of 27. Matt McLain, a great friend, who I had many classes with at Huntsville. He died after accidentally entering the wrong apartment at the age of 23. I just am having a bit of trouble reconciling that they’re both gone.

I would’ve written yesterday, but I had to go to the optometrist because of my eye. There’s nothing wrong, except I need new glasses. Apparently, hurting my eye caused me to notice that I wasn’t seeing as well as I should be. With my glasses on, I could see 20/30 out of each eye. When I first got my glasses, my eyes were 20/40 and 20/50 with an astigmatism in both. Now, I’m not sure what they are. All I know is that I need new glasses.

I just walked about a mile, and I think I’ll do it again tomorrow. Why? Well, I want to lose weight, and part of losing weight is exercising. So, I walked around the block, which is about a mile. Now my back is killing me, and my feet are aching, but part of me feels really good. Maybe that was the feeling that my doctor talked about. I’m planning on adding 2 mile long walks to my schedule for each day that it’s not really stormy out, so that I will lose weight sooner and get in better shape. I’m hoping that that and the fact that I’ve had to cut down even more on what I eat will help me to lose the weight.

Jef did something amazing. He created Dammit Janet, a fanlisting for me. I was really shocked when he IM’ed me about it. Please go join, if you like me or any of my projects.

I have to rest a bit before it’s time to take the dogs out at 3. I hope that these walks don’t wear me out too much. I just realized that it’s better for me to walk than it is for me to sit here and goof off all day, or even than working on my magazine.

I am going to have a lovely black eye. Why, you may ask? Well, I was sleeping last night, and I rolled over and hit my eye right on the corner of the desk that is next to my bed. I’ve already got a mark on my eye. It hurts like crazy, too.

Personally, I was annoyed by the special they ran on CBS last night talking about how students drop out, and how it leads to such a horrible life. I dropped out of high school, and though I’m currently in debt, it isn’t really because I dropped out. It’s because I chose to go to college. Why is it that they never talk about people doing that? It’s like they assume that dropping out is the end of the road for EVERYONE who drops out. It’s so annoying and stupid. I’ve only known one person who dropped out that didn’t go on to college.

I’m tired right now, but I had to get up early so I could wake my dad up early for an appointment he has. Why do I have to be responsible for everyone in this house getting up? It isn’t right; it isn’t fair.

I’m working on some articles right now for Urban Sunrise. One is on pro-eating disorder websites, which partially sicken me and partially intrigue me. I probably shouldn’t visit the sites, since I was once diagnosed as having an eating disorder…and once you have one, you always have it. It’s supposed to be Binge Eating Disorder, but I think it may actually be EDNOS, as I binge, but I have some of the problems of an Anorexic (except the excessive weight loss).

If you were interested in purchasing advertising space, I was finally able to download the statistics.

I’m doing advertising for Celestial, fuzzypinkslippers.com, Urban Sunrise and Urban Sunrise Forums.

On fuzzypinkslippers and Urban Sunrise, you can purchase either 125×125 or 468×60 sized banner placement. On Celestial and USF, it’s only 468×60.

Each individual ad is $2 per 500 impressions, or $15 for infinite impressions on all of the sites in all of the sizes.

I don’t have any stats to share because of the way my domains are configured through my host.

Well, UAH found out that I had been at A&M, so they rescinded my admission until I can send them a transcript and a letter of recommendation from A&M. Apparently, they found out about it while doing a clearance on me. Why they couldn’t have done this BEFORE they got me all happy by saying I could come there is beyond me. So I guess I may not be going to UAH after all, since I cannot afford to pay A&M $6000 to get a transcript and I can’t go back on my lawsuit to get them to be all “happy, happy, joy, joy” about me. I didn’t not tell UAH because I had anything to hide. I just didn’t tell them because I knew that I could never get the transcript. I mean, why would someone with a 3.6 average hide that fact from their new school?

As for Urban Sunrise, there are still about 5 ad slots left for free. Then the price goes up.

Now, I know it’s getting confusing but the magazine is now Urban Sunrise again. Basically, Jessica and I decided we weren’t getting anywhere together, so we parted ways…amicably. She’s keeping the Societe domain, and I hope she puts together a great site with it.

We’re STILL looking for writers, so if you’re interested, please let me know. Make sure you leave me your AIM username so I can get in touch with you, as your emails are completely hidden from view. I’ve tried accessing emails to get in touch with people before, and it never works.
