Well, I finally went to the doctor (a few times actually) and found out that I had a staph infection in my throat. She gave me some anitbiotics that didn't work, but did show me that I'm allergic to penacillin now (I developed a rash after finishing the medication, I seem to have delayed reactions to things I'm allergic to) and did some blood tests. After I went in to have the rash looked at, I realized that my throat infection hadn't been cured yet, so I had to go in again and got some different anibiotics that seem to have killed it, even though I'm still really thirsty all of the time.
The good news is that I don't have any indicators for diabetes (other than the non stop thirst), but I have high cholesterol (253 total with low HDL (good) and high LDL (Bad) cholesterol levels). She looked at the results and said that I must have a family history of high cholesterol, and that considering my age she's reluctant to prescribe pills as I'd have to take them forever. The really weird part is that my normal diet is basically the diet that is recommended for people with high cholesterol. I hardly ever eat red meat (only every so often at fast food places), I occasionally eat chicken, I eat lots of veggies, little dairy and egg products, and I started eating cheerios with soy milk a few months ago. I also started excercising last year and have been doing so regularly since then. I'm starting to think that something went wrong with the test since my dad said the only family history on his side is a few overweight uncles and my mom's had a heart attack but no cholesterol problems. So I'm either unique in my family or the test is wrong. I'll be getting another one done in about six months and hopefully its results will be better.
In other news, I'm doing well in all of my classes and have been working pretty steadily for the last month. So I now have $1000+ in the bank and should be getting a nice big check at the end of this month. I think I might actually spend some of the money on myself and get a new Intuos 3 tablet for home so I can take my old one to work with me. And I might also get that heart rate monitor that I've been eyeing since I started excercising. Oh, my half-brother finally got his braces off after 6 years of having them on, now he's brushing his teeth all of the time.
That's all for now.
Happy Halloween (in case I don't write a new entry before then)

Firemen, Police and drunken teenagers...
So this is how it goes. I'm home quietly doing some homework reading and TV watching. I light a few candles since I haven't done so in a long time. A little while later, my brother comes in and tells me that there are some firemen at the door, wanting something about a fire alarm. I think he's trying to mess with me about my lit candles, but decide to go along with it and go to the door. Where I find two firemen in uniform with their truck parked in front of the house. Turns out some one pulled the fire alarm at the elementary school a few blocks away. Apparently, some one saw my brother in the area and reported him and his friends.

strep
Well, it's late, I think I might have strep throat and I'm not talking to my boyfriend. So all is great in the land of Insaniquarium (which I am currenly addicted to go to http://www.popcap.com/launchpage.php?theGame=insaniquarium&src=big8 if you want to try it). I have to pick my mom up from the airport tomorrow, I have a test in my Buslaw class on Tuesday and it's my dad's birthday on Wednesday.
My throat hurts more now that I've started thinking that osmething might really be worng with it. Which sucks, of course. So does my boyfriend. He has so many problems with making any attempt at doing homwork. He's supposed to be writing a simp
School...meh.
Well, school started off with a bang yesterday. It turns out that the MW class that I signed up for has a prereq that I some how missed. So I'm going to have to drop it. Which isn't actually that bad since the teacher is one of those old school insane hardass types. Like, he wants the class to copy, by hand, parts from the book and turn them in, plus he gave bonus points to ppl who had the homework that was due on the first day of class (you know, that day where all that is supposed to happen is that you get the syllabus and go home early). The good news about it is that now I can try to find two 1 unit classes or a 3 unit class that I'd li

that my school hates me. Since the end of last year there has been one or another weird assed mistake with my paychecks. I thought that it was all figured out now and that I'd get my last paycheck for the plant website with out a problem.
But nooooo, that would be too nice for them to do. So instead of getting paid for 112 hours during the month of June, I got paid only for 80 hours. Which means they still owe me nearly $400. How does this crap keep happening to me? Ugh, it really does suck. Good thing I had already decided that I won't do any more work for them ever again.
Alas, I have to get a REAL job now, so I'll get back to working
