MRI New Template morning all sorry the entry is so late but I had to go in for an MRI this morning so I hadn't gotten around to this until now. I forgot to mention the few good things that came out of the weekend so I will do that now. I bared my midriff for the first time in public wearing some white silk shorts and a purple bra that I borrowed from Spk, he still has some leftover clothes from exes and things, and I went into stores dressed like that. It was a bit freeing for me, the phrase belly issues only touches the tip of how self conscious I am about my stomach, and I liked that I could do it without too much staring. I do need to get toned though so I will try forcing myself to do crunches through Thesis Boot Camp. I employed the idea yesterday and it worked out pretty well. whenever I wanted to take a break and watch some TV I had to do crunches. After a while, I was more than happy to go back to my paper. BTW, I wrote a kickass review and came to the conclusion that the women's movement scapegoats whores in order to show that they are worthy of more rights. If you want, I can show ya, just email me. I was also amazed at the amount of time I gained by the end of the night. So, all in all, I felt good about myself. Right now though the book I need and my advisor wants me to read is on backorder from another library so I have decided to investigate the Lambadae collections in the Grad for the week. I will write a review on the press coverage surrounding Jacobsen's exhibit and that should be interesting. not heavy reading either just something nice. the irony is that spk will be busy most of the weekend so NOW I could write if I wanted to. It's okay though because I think that I will submit Back Door to the Metrotimes for their contest, which means that I need to edit it to 2500 words soon. I also called D and asked her out but she was eating and never phoned me back. if that happens it would be a welcome distraction as well...I miss hearing from her. Right now, I have my Palm Pilot for that study which I get to carry around for a week and track who asks me favors and what I think about that. Not too bad, they already threw me a tenner as a starter, and I had a good time amazing people that I am doing drug studies which other kids my age seem to be scared shitless over, lol. I also did the MRI this morning and that wasn't bad. I just got really stiff lying in there for an hour or so. They give you earplugs and strap your head down really well and the task to read words on a screen above was not hard at all. I kept missing some because of speed but after a while I needed to climb out because I got really stiff and my tummy was screaming for food. The pics of my brain though were really neat and they said they would send a jpg to me of one or two of them so that I could have them...I will try and link one here for y'all. anyway, yesterday went all right and today's plans are to rebuild my machine. Carli sent me a really good template which I plan to put up ASAP. It really matches the point of the blog and it's easier to read. I like this one too but, well, you'll see. I am also going to the reading of the book on cadavers and I think I might buy a copy of it for light reading. I really enjoy the after life or late life process. call me morbid but I so want to learn mortuary science and I am still considering going back to school for that in a few years. assuming I still want to go back to school. still having that debate about whether or not I want to get into social work. right now, I just want to head to California and work with sex worker activism organizations. That's my dream, that and the porn studio, and I want to make that happen. Social work would be fine and all but I am getting bored with college and I think doing something else for a while might help. nerdiness is all fine and good but school seems like it will never end and I need to know that someday it will be over. I also plan to catch Top Model on UPN tonight and I encourage everyone else to watch too. It's the last episode and I need to know which of my two favorites will win. I am not hoping for either one, except that both will have the great careers they deserve, just excited to see what happens. that's about it for now. maybe I will mess with the blog on here and leave the annotation for tomorrow. whatever happens it should be fun :) I want to go out drinking wednesday though because it will be last time I can for about a week, they moved the gas tests to wednesday of next week and I know that I shouldn't be drinking while on the test drug...so take me out people!
