So I went to Bev’s site.. and found out wtf she was talking about with quiz questions.. She nicked the quiz from Colene, and I nicked the quiz from Bev:) I scored 6 out of 10 on Bev’s quiz.. though I think one of the questions was fucked and screwed me over.. but yeah.. here is MY quiz.. See how YOU do…:) Post your results in the comment box purrease:)
Laundry.. filthy kitchen… hot water.. dishwasher steam.. no window open lest more topsoil blow onto kitchen floor…bleach in bathtub.- that shirt WILL be white again.. high humidity… sweaty forehead… headache from stomach meds… feverish from antibiotics.. god i’m loving this day…
grrrrr. weather for tomorrow no looky so damn good.
Chance of
showers
Low 14°C
High 21°C
POP 40%
So today.. I was feeling pretty good about myself.. standing in front of my mirror.. fresh out of the shower.. I thought “I’m gonna wear that new sundress”, so I put it on, and 10 minutes later was wriggling out of it. I then ransacked my closet and dresser for clothes that were summery.. nothing was suiting me.. I hate feeling like this.. Tomorrow.. those life changes are going to start.. first thing happening with a nice long walk in the AM
-taps her fingers on the desk- I started thinking about what to write in this post yesterday.. why I didn’t write it yesterday? Well I hadn’t finished figuring out wtf I was going to blather bout today.. I still don’t.. but this is a start. Life Changes. -wrinkles nose- No one likes thinking about them, or if they do, yes it’s a great idea, but the motivation and energy to go about those changes just isn’t there. After spending a lovely morning in the ER yesterday, I’ve decided.. and well, my stomach had some say in it as well.. That I have to change a lot of my dietary and daily life habits. Contemplating doing one or two of these over an extended period of time isn’t daunting. I usually set goals for myself.. You know, between April 10 and October 10th, I’m going to lose 15 pounds, and be in shape. That’s a realistic goal to me, it’s easier to do that than, I’m going to lose 15 pounds and be in shape in 2 weeks. THAT isn’t happening.
So here I sit, thinking about what to eliminate, to correct, to limit. I have a list of things I shouldn’t eat or drink.
Things to Avoid
- arthritis and pain relievers and include the over-the-counter drugs like Advil, Naprosyn, Motrin and ibuprofen.
- alcoholic beverages, coffee, teas, soda.
- fatty, spicy, and acidic foods.
- avoid heavily salted foods.
- no chocolate.
- avoid stress(*see further down about avoiding stress)
Things I should Do
- Consume plenty of water.
- Consume plenty of more healthful whole foods such as berries and vegetables.
- Take a multi-vitamen supliment(i already do this).
- Drink milk.
- Keep a food diary tracking what I eat, and what my reactions to it are.
Suggestions on Fighting Stress
- Exercise.. it releases tension and the more obvious, gets you in shape.
- Take breaks to calm down. Aim for at least 20 minutes twice a day.. Chillout sessions.
- Keep a cat or dog. They may shed or slobber, but studies show their owners have fewer health problems than people without pets.
So I shall be doing MOST of these.. I’m not so willing to give up my coffee.. I think that after a while, I will just drink it in moderation, and in smaller quantities. Look for a life changes diary somewhere in this site, soonish.. On a brighter and different note though:) I did find a way I want to redo my photography site! -dances- So I started redoing the actual photos last night.. and it will soon have it’s makeover!
So Bev has this Southpark thing….
So yeah.. Spent all of the morning.. 7:45am-ish to about 12:45pm-ish.. in the ER of Ottawa Gen.. for my stupid stomach.. I have apparently Gastritis, and I have to go be scoped… to find out what kind it is. WEEE..
So I’ve been up since 5am because of my stomach doing it’s wonderful fuckyouihateyou act. This time, having it hurt so bad I throw up, didn’t fix the pain after I was done yacking. There’s nothing left in me or of me at the moment.. I don’t know how I am going to get through till this wears off.

I Am A: Neutral Good Elf Bard Ranger
Alignment:
Neutral Good characters believe in the power of good above all else. They will work to make the world a better place, and will do whatever is necessary to bring that about, whether it goes for or against whatever is considered ‘normal’.
Race:
Elves are the eldest of all races, although they are generally a bit smaller than humans. They are generally well-cultured, artistic, easy-going, and because of their long lives, unconcerned with day-to-day activities that other races frequently concern themselves with. Elves are, effectively, immortal, although they can be killed. After a thousand years or so, they simply pass on to the next plane of existance.
Primary Class:
Bards are the entertainers. They sing, dance, and play instruments to make other people happy, and, frequently, make money. They also tend to dabble in magic a bit.
Secondary Class:
Rangers are the defenders of nature and the elements. They are in tune with the Earth, and work to keep it safe and healthy.
Deity:
Oghma is the Neutral Good god of knowledge and invention. He is also known as the Binder of What is Known, and is the Patron of Bards. His followers believe that knowledge reigns supreme, and is the basis for everything else that is done. They wear white shirts and pants, with a black and gold braided vest, and a small, box-like hat. All priests of Oghma are known as Loremasters. Oghma’s symbol is a scroll.
