So it has been a long time since my last post. Sorry! Let me catch you up on what's been going on in my life.
First, I got sick. And that may be the understatement of the month. I got colitis ... ulcerative colitis ... Crohn's disease ...? Ok, so the doctors aren't exactly sure what happened. Basically, my colon had a bunch of ulcers in it and it swelled up. What that meant for me was a visit to a general doctor, a visit to a GI specialist, two blood draws, a colonoscopy, no food, large amounts of throwing up, a trip to the ER, another blood draw, a CT scan, two days in a hospital, and another visit to the GI specialist. Only to be put on a "wait and see" plan. If you want more details, let me know. But you should be warned that it is a disease of my colon so really how much more detailed can you want?
My second big news is that I went out on a date. It was a set up with my friend's husband's friend. I had so much fun. We all (my friend, her husband, my set-up date and me) went out to dinner, then watched a movie, which was ok. Then we played rock band, which is my new favorite game. (Rock on Becky.) I should let you all know that I am the most rock-awesome bass guitar player. Ya, that's right. Anyway, it was tons of fun.
My last piece of big news is that my set-up date asked me out again. Don't worry, I checked and the world hasn't stopped spinning. This time we went to the Renaissance Fair in Moscow. It was also tons of fun, marred a little bit by the fact that it was after the aforementioned colon fiasco. I'll just say that the fair had very, very nice places to sit down and rest. And, yes, I did find all of them. It was so great just to be out in the sun walking around and not glued to my couch.
I think that's all my big news for now. My upcoming event is the end of school. Woohoo! I never knew that teachers got just as excited about the end as students did. I will keep everyone updated on that and any other events in my life. No more month-long silent spells.
