I move the stars for no one

Since I have so much to get caught up on but I'm so tired and yet can't sleep so let's give it a go...

Where Have I Been?
Right here. I mean, I've totally been right here waiting for you and you just got here. Okay, so maybe not right here but a girl has to stretch her legs from time to time. I know this is a silly question if you do follow along with my babbling here/twittering habits and have read endless "I'm so sick" comments. Yep, I've been sick and have been for about a month. Some people might be having deja vu because yes, this is the same time of year I had pneumonia last year.

So, what was wrong with me? Was it pneumonia again?
No, thank goodness, it wasn't pneumonia again. I was suffering from a severe case of tonsillitis. A few things I learned due to this experience-1. This condition can actually cause a lot of other things to be wrong with you. Do not ignore a serious sore throat, people! 2. This crazy antibiotic shot that I've got twice in the past year now (where they have to put a slight numbing agent in first before the antibiotic/molasses they pass off as medicine) makes me pass out for some reason. I don't know if it's the pain or the fact it takes almost five minutes to get the shot but the walls close in on me around minute four. 3. If you make it to my age with tonsils intact, they'll let you keep them. I'm quite glad because I'm very attached to all my body parts. I'd like to keep them where they are. 4. Antibiotics ROCK. I'm feeling so much better today which oddly helped me realize how horrible I felt last week and for the past almost month.

Other than laying around and moaning about being sick, what have I been doing since I obviously haven't been blogging?
Staying incredibly busy with both work and school. I had a very strong to the point of overwhelming moment in class tonight where I suddenly realized I'm doing the right thing in what I'm studying now. It was a "I know what I want to be when I grow up" moment...now if I could only decide when I'm growing up.

I've also been dealing with the issue that since Daisy has been fixed she's had to stay in her kennel at night until her stitches come out (Friday for the curious). For the past two days I've been fighting with her to put the satellite dish on her which I take as a good sign she's feeling back to normal. No, there will be no pictures of her with the ring on because I swore to her I wouldn't take a picture. Seriously, I had this conversation out loud with her. "mommy still thinks you're beautiful and don't look dumb at all"... typing this has made me realize maybe I need to spend some time out of the house soon. Oh, another Daisy thing, she's crazy cute with the haircut, eh? It's killing me the cuteness. It kills my urge to be stern or anything. I have no idea how I could be a mom 'cause I'm sure kids are cuter than my groomed dog.

Anything else going on to be addressed right now?
Tons! Tons and tons of things to be addressed but I know I'm going to miss something. I'm mentally making plans to do some things this summer such as catch some baseball games and going to the theatre to catch some Broadway shows. On the short term, I'm planning on having an incredibly relaxing Friday at home with the dog and 2 cats while I rock out watching some random movies. I've got a stack of about 7 waiting for me to watch. Wait, I need to mention this will be done around going to see Watchmen. I think we're going to see it at 6 so that'll leave plenty of time for at least one movie and the rest will probably be taken care of during the day. If not there's plenty of weekend left. I plan on being incredibly lazy. Directly contracting myself, I plan on feeling completely well enough again to not to be so run down that I can't work out. Yes, I was so sick my body was too sore and achy to even think about working out. I've been working on a lot more community oriented projects and that makes me happy.

I'm happy in general and that says a lot.

I've thought about someone a lot lately and can't help but wonder if they think about me. Things have changed slightly, though, because a part of me has become guarded yet again. This part keeps me from reaching out to them to let them know what's going on. Perhaps they know.

I've found myself believing in a bigger plan again where things don't just happen. There's a method to the madness.

Man I hope I won the lottery tonight.

I've almost stumbled into bullet posting here at the end so I suppose that means it's time to go to bed. I may get caught up on blogs some day but I highly doubt it. I hope everyone has been okay and knows I have thought fondly of you all. I just haven't had the gusto to write it.

Glad that you're back.

That is a lot of stuff to deal with. You are doing a great job managing it all.
