busy week ahead
Monday is my birthday, YAY! I'm just excited to get Jared's homemade birthday cake. Last year, he make a chocolate cake with peanut butter frosting. This year, he told me he wanted to change the frosting, and I objected. It was really good last year! BUT! He wants to make it chocolate peanut butter frosting. So I told him that's okay. hehe

I had an MRI on Wednesday for my right arm. It was...uncomfortable. The tech was surprised that I actually remained still for the half hour. But that was what I was told to do. So I did. Apparently, other people have a harder time forcing themselves not to scratch their nose. Before the MIR, I had to sign a release form. On one of the pages, you had to list any surgeries you've had. This isn't the first time in the last few months where I've had to state any previous surgeries. I've never had any. And each time the people are like, "You've NEVER had any surgeries?!" Is it that rare for someone to live their first 25 years without any surgeries?? Each time, I tell them I did have my wisdom teeth out, but they say that it doesn't really count. Maybe I'm just an abnormally clumsy person, who manages not to do any real damage?

Anyways, I could end up having surgery on my wrist depending on what the MRI shows. Then I'll never have to go through the same "You've NEVER had any surgeries?!" discussion. Although, I hope it's an *easy* fix. Probably not likely... I go back to the doctor on Tuesday, so I guess I just have to wait a little more to find out.

Wednesday, Jared and I sign the lease for the apartment. Woo! Jared's moving in most of his stuff Wednesday, but I have to wait til the weekend. Our bed (the mattress and free frame really, we have to wait a few weeks for the actual bed) arrives Saturday, so Saturday night will be the first night there. Sunday we should be moving big stuff from my house, like the sofa and bureau. My sister has a rather large SUV, so I'm hoping every thing will fit fine. I just feel really useless. I can't carry a lot of weight in my arms or anything at an awkward angle. I mean, I can do it. I'll just be in a lot more pain for about a month til it decreases back to its usual pain. But both Jared and my mom have told me no. So, I may have to enlist other people's arms. I guess the rest of their bodies can come too.

My left elbow has been painful again. I think its re-inflamed. Boo. That trumps any pain my right wrist throws at me because it affects my entire arm. It's really...not pleasant. I wish I could have one of those ultrasound machines from the therapy place. That always made it feel much better. However, I don't think they let random people buy one. And if they do, it is probably super expensive. I'll add it to the "if I'm ever a billionaire" wish list.

There really is a lot to do, with packing and all. But at the moment, I just want to relax!

Meaningful quotes and lyrics.

-Sir William Arthur

"I'm not confused. I'm well mixed."
-Robert Frost

"I'll show you mine if you show me yours first. Let's compare scars, I'll tell you whose is worse. Let's unwrite these pages and replace them with our own words. We live on front porches and swing life away. We get by just fine here on minimum wage. If love is a labor, I'll slave til the end. I won't cross these streets until you hold my hand."
-Rise Against

"I came to Ipp to bury a friend, I should tell you. It's not a pleasant business, nor was it meant to be. Pleasantness doesn't taste like much, and euphoria can be very tiring."

"I will be as harsh as truth, and uncompromising as justice...I am in earnest, I will not equivocate, I will not excuse, I will not retreat a single inch, and I will be heard."
-William Lloyd Garrison

"'...and you'd forgotten how to smile but your eyes were skies and there was a star in each. That hasn't changed. People will always wonder what it is your eyes hold behind the stars.' His own eyes closed and Morgen sat breathing lightly until he stirred and said, 'If you're wise, my darling, you'll never let them know.'"
-Gale Wilhelm

"I read and walked for miles at night along the beach, writing bad blank verse and searching endlessly for someone wonderful who would step out of the darkness and change my life. It never crossed my mind that that person could be me."
-Anna Quindlen

"The most beautiful experience we can have is the mysterious. It is the fundamental emotion which stands at the cradle of true art and true science. Whoever does not know it and can no longer wonder, no longer marvel, is as good as dead, and his eyes are dimmed."
-Albert Einstein

"Love is like pi - natural, irrational, and very important."
-Lisa Hoffman

"We took a walk that night, but it wasn't the same. We had a fight on the promenade out in the rain. She said she loved me, but she had somewhere to go. She couldn't scream while I held I close, I swore I'd never let her go."
-The Killers

"Hope is not a feeling. It is not the belief that things will turn out well, but the conviction that what we are doing makes sense, no matter how things turn out."
-Vaclav Havel

"This is my manifesto. And I have no idea what it says."
-Fleep #36 by Jason Shiga

"Pressed against her face, I could feel her insecurity. Her mother'd been a drunk and her father was obscurity. But nothin' ever came from a life that was a simple one. So pull yourself together girl and have a little fun."
-Flogging Molly

"I tried being a writer, but I hate what I write. I tried taking pictures, but they were so mediocre. Every girl goes through a photography phase. You know, like horses, or taking pictures of your feet."
-Charlotte, Lost In Translation

"I have come to believe that the whole world is an enigma, a harmless enigma that is made terrible by our own mad attempt to interpret it as though it had an underlying truth."
-Umberto Eco

"If I'm a writer, and I'm a poet, I might love you, but never show it. You should forget me, this is a long tour, and I'll be back but, not in time for...If all we speak is rational thought everyday I pray for the sadness. My eyes are black, my throat full of sickness, the words I write, are cheap and trite."
-From Autumn to Ashes

"She herself has failed. She is not a writer at all, really; she is merely a gifted eccentric."
-Michael Cunningham
