I'm a nerd.

I've spent the last six days hanging out with Daniel. Not the ENTIRE six days, mind you, just every of the last six.

So I'm going to school. At the moment taking Human Anatomy & Physiology and Yoga. My goal is to join the Phlebotomy program in the spring and getting my certificate. Then hopefully after a few years of saving I can get away from here.

I don't have any time to look at or make deviations.

It also really bothers me when people lie. Of course, I absolutely EXPECT to be lied to by certain people but that doesn't mean it bothers me any less.

Another pet peeve of mine is blocking what someone has said in a public message and then replying to it so that no one can see what's actually been said and so you can pull shit randomly from your ass at your whim.

In summation, go fuck yourself.


*At 24 you should also be able to spell "pretty" and "marry".

*It surprises me to know that I knew someone who could see the future.

** I'm not in a "zesty" mood. I'm in a fucking pissed off mood but dA won't let me choose another.

**The book that I'm reading's full title is, "He's a Stud, She's a Slut and 49 Other Double Standards Every Woman Should Know"

My flight was being served by an obviously gay flight attendant, who seemed
to put everyone in a good mood as he served us food and drinks.
As the plane prepared to descend, he came swishing down the aisle and told us that
'Captain Marvey has asked me to announce that he'll be landing the big scary plane shortly, so lovely people, if you could just put your trays up, that would be super.'

On his trip back up the aisle, he noticed this well-dressed and rather
Arabic looking woman hadn't moved a muscle.
'erhaps you didn't hear me over those big brute engines but I asked you to
raise your trazy-poo, so the main man can pitty-pat us on the ground.'

She calmly turned her head and said,
'In my country, I am called a Princess and I take orders from no one.'

To which (I swear) the flight attendant replied, without missing a beat,

'Well, sweet-cheeks, in my country I'm called a Queen, so I outrank you.
Tray-up, Bitch'

This is important information for females of ALL ages.

When this was sent to me, I was told to forward it to my lady friends, but I forwarded it to most everyone in my address book. My men friends have female friends and this information is too important to miss someone.
Please pass it along.

A group of rapists and date rapists in prison were interviewed on what they look for in a potential victim and here are some interesting facts:


1) The first thing men look for in a potential victim is hairstyle. They are most likely to go after a woman with a ponytail, bun, braid or other hairstyle that can easily be grabbed. They are also likely to go after a woman with long hair. Women with short hair are not common targets.

2) The second thing men look for is clothing. They will look for women whose clothing is easy to remove quickly. Many of them carry scissors around specifically to cut clothing.

3) They also look for women on their cell phone, searching through their purse, or doing other activities while walking because they are off-guard and can be easily overpowered.


4) Men are most likely to attack & rape in the early morning, between 5:00 a.m. and 8:30 a.m.


5) The number one place women are abducted from/attacked is grocery store parking lots. Number two: Are office parking lots/garages. Number three: Are public restrooms.


6) The thing about these men is that they are looking to grab a woman and quickly move her to another location where they don't have to worry about getting caught.


7) Only 2% said they carried weapons because rape carries a 3-5 year sentence but rape with a weapon is 15-20 years.


8) If you put up any kind of a fight at all, they get discouraged because it only takes a minute or two for them to realize that going after you isn't worth it because it will be time-consuming.


9) These men said they would not pick on women who have umbrellas, or other similar objects that can be used from a distance, in their hands.


Keys are not a deterrent because you have to get really close to the attacker to use them as a weapon. So, the idea is to convince these guys you're not worth it.

10) Several defense mechanisms he taught us are: If someone is following behind you on a street or in a garage or with you in an elevator or stairwell, look them in the face and ask them a question, like what time is it, or make general small talk: 'I can't believe it is so cold out here,' 'we're in for a bad winter.' Now you've seen their face and could identify them in a line-up; you lose appeal as a target.


11) If someone is coming toward you, hold out your hands in front of you and yell STOP or STAY BACK! Most of the rapists this man talked to said they'd leave a woman alone if she yelled or showed that she would not be afraid to fight back.
Again, they are looking for an EASY target.

12) If you carry pepper spray (this instructor was a huge advocate of it and carries it with him wherever he goes), yell I HAVE PEPPER SPRAY and holding it out will be a deterrent.


13) If someone grabs you, you can't beat them with strength but you can by outsmarting them. If you are grabbed around the waist from behind, pinch the attacker either under the arm (between the elbow and armpit) OR in the upper inner thigh VERY VERY HARD. One woman in a class this guy taught told him she used the underarm pinch on a guy who was trying to date rape her and was so upset she broke through the skin and tore out muscle strands - the guy needed stitches. Try pinching yourself in those places as hard as you can stand it - it hurts.


14) After the initial hit, always GO for the GROIN. I know from a particularly unfortunate experience that if you slap a guy's parts it is extremely painful. You might think that you'll anger the guy and make him want to hurt you more, but the thing these rapists told our instructor is that they want a woman who will not cause a lot of trouble. Start causing trouble and he's out of there.


15) When the guy puts his hands up to you, grab his first two fingers and bend them back as far as possible with as much pressure pushing down on them as possible. The instructor did it to me without using much pressure, and I ended up on my knees and both knuckles cracked audibly.

16) Of course the things we always hear still apply. Always be aware of your surroundings, take someone with you if you can and if you see any odd behavior, don't dismiss it, go with your instincts!!!


You may feel a little silly at the time, but you'd feel much worse if the guy really was trouble.

But I had my radioactive iodine treatment on Monday and started the Synthroid again on Tuesday night. So, I should be feeling better in a week or so, according to my endocrinologist (who treats me like a three year old and has horrible breath. I hate male physicians).

Just for fun, because you know, nothing else has been going on, about a week before Thanksgiving I started seeing this cauliflower-shaped blue light in the corner of my left-eye vision. It was see-through, but I could see it even when I closed my eye. Well on Thanksgiving I woke up and that cauliflower had turned into a blind spot. I can see straight ahead but the space down and to the left of that is gone.

When I was still in high school, (I'm thinking 11th grade but who knows with my memory) my mom lost the vision in the center of her left eye. She has peripheral but no center. I really don't think I'd mind as much getting everything my mom gets if I were getting it at her age (mid-50s) instead of my late-teens/early-twenties. It doesn't seem fair that she got to go half a life without while I'm getting everything now. But anyway, everyone she spoke to about it was like, "hmm... weird... I dunno... that's weird" and then by the time they got her on steroids to treat whatever it was it was too late and she didn't get the vision back.

I went to the ER in Missouri (we went to my aunt's for Thanksgiving) and they tested me for glaucoma and said I was fine and kicked me out. I was there for literally 1/2 an hour; my shortest ER visit EVER.

I would have gone in to see the eye doc on Monday if it weren't for the radioactive iodine. Now it's probably too late and I'll be blind forever. It's giving me a headache and making me dizzy. It just figures that since I enjoy art more than music that I'd go blind instead of deaf.

So I have an eye appointment tomorrow to see if I can get my full vision back. ]]> ~Morghandi http://Morghandi.deviantart.com/journal/15486872/ http://Morghandi.deviantart.com/journal/15486872/ Mon, 12 Nov 2007 23:07:57 PST
My scars are thick and rope-y and kind of sore but I'm doing ok. I have to be off the synthetic thyroid hormone for a month. I'm really cold (I'm NEVER cold) and tired (I'm ALWAYS tired... but this is like 12-16 hours every time I sleep tired) and my hair is falling out. It gets everywhere and is driving me crazy. Luckily I cut it in September otherwise it'd REALLY be everywhere.

Radioactive Iodine Treatment on November 26th. Dad and I are going to see my grandma, aunt, uncle (and possibly cousins) for Thanksgiving. Joy.

I'm thinking of applying to the Post Office after my treatment is done. ]]> ~Morghandi http://Morghandi.deviantart.com/journal/14918974/ http://Morghandi.deviantart.com/journal/14918974/ Thu, 04 Oct 2007 20:31:40 PDT
The endocrinologist did a biopsy of the nodule (four FNA sticks) on Monday and it's been hurting pretty bad since then. Well this morning I got a call from a number I didn't recognize to I hit "ignore" on my phone and went back to sleep. At about 1pm, after waking up to use the bathroom, I checked my phone and saw that I had a message. It was the endocrinologist. My thyroid nodule is very atypical and must be removed. It is possibly papillary cancer (he sounded pretty sure) but he said it is hard to tell from the slides they did from the biopsy.

So I have an appointment with a surgeon on Tuesday.

After reading about treatment for papillary cancer I'm glad that I won't have to have chemo. I don't want to lose my hair... :/

Now I really need to have the nodule in my lung checked. What I've read said that spreading is really rare, but they also told me that it was really unlikely that it would be cancer. ]]> ~Morghandi http://Morghandi.deviantart.com/journal/14878181/ http://Morghandi.deviantart.com/journal/14878181/ Mon, 01 Oct 2007 21:53:08 PDT
The endocrinologist biopsied my thyroid nodule today. And now it really hurts. I think it sensed an attack, got pissed off and is now forming allies to take over my throat.

So he took four samples of cells with the FNA (fine needle aspiration) and gave me a synthetic thyroid hormone so that the thyroid will stop working and hopefully the nodule will shrink on its own. If it doesn't they'll be concerned.

My nodule hurts. ]]> ~Morghandi http://Morghandi.deviantart.com/journal/14522249/ http://Morghandi.deviantart.com/journal/14522249/ Thu, 06 Sep 2007 19:34:03 PDT
On Saturday I was babysitting for my most regular family, the brother and sister I usually had plus two girls from out of town (friends of the family). It went well for the most part, though the brother had two time outs for pulling on a neighbor girl's arm and for sticking his hand down the garbage disposal (while smiling) two seconds after I told him not to because it's dangerous. One of the out-of-town girls skinned her knee and her chin and after I taped a gauze with A+D ointment over the knee scrape she was walking all funny so I scooped her up and plopped her on the couch to watch Spongebob. She couldn't have weighed more than 60 lbs. My bags usually weigh more than that.

After the kids were all asleep I was cleaning up a bit and just felt like I'd been run over by a truck. My legs hurt to walk, my back was really aching and I was totally out of breath. I'd already taken my inhaler after I was it in tag and chased the brother across the street. So I took my inhaler again, along with my nighttime meds and sat down to watch a little Fresh Prince. When I got home I had a lot of trouble falling asleep and once I did woke up every 15-30 minutes because I was hurting so bad.

Sunday was more of the same. My back hurt, my arms hurt, my chest hurt, my stomach hurt, my legs hurt, my hips hurt, I hurt. I laid on the heat pad for most of the day, took my usually meds plus added some Pamprin. Nothing really helped.

Monday was the same but at night when I went to get in bed I had these excruciating shooting pains in my spine that lasted for about five minutes. I couldn't lay down, I couldn't stand, I couldn't sit without making them worse.

Tuesday was a little better. I was able to take some stuff down to the dumpster but was getting a dull pain in my front and back ribs every time I took a breath.

Wednesday I woke up at 6 AM because I was hurting and couldn't get back to sleep. At 7 AM I called my boss and left a message saying that I wasn't exactly sick but was having a fibromyalgia flair that had been going on since Saturday and would it be possible to have someone replace me in the job I was scheduled for at 1 PM. If she didn't that was fine.

I went downstairs and had breakfast and watched Click and then went upstairs to grab my laundry to take to mom's before work. My boss called me back and said she couldn't find anyone to cover for me, she was even having to work a job. I said that was fine and went back to gathering some clothes to wash. I went over to my mom's house and got a load of whites started at about 9:45 AM then got in the shower.

After I got out of the shower I was hurting pretty bad. I was short of breath and worn out from the hot water and now had a sharp pain in my front and back ribs every time I took a breath. I tried laying down and it felt like there was a knife under each rib/each rib was cracked and that someone had stuck a crowbar under each collar bone and was trying to pry them from my shoulders. I was trying so hard not to cry because I knew if it hurt this bad taking small shallow breaths it was really going to hurt if I was sobbing. I tried taking my inhaler so that I'd be getting more air with my shallow breaths but holding it in and then having to gasp for air after just about killed me. I called my mom and told her what was going on (I'd been keeping her updated all week) and she asked if I needed her to come home and take me to the ER. I started crying and said yes. She told me to call my boss and tell her I was going to the ER and she was on her way. I left my boss a message and then mom called back to stay on the phone with me in case I stopped breathing.

We got to the ER about 11:20 AM and they checked the oxygen in my blood. Since I was getting enough air they had me fill out my paper work. I was called back and talked to about three different people before the doctor came in (no idea how long that took). The doctor was a jerk, no surprise there, but said he was going to order all this stuff and give me some Toradol for the pain (Oh, btw, I'd taken two of my mom's leftover Vicodin from her nose surgery before I called her). I had an EKG done. I had blood drawn (bled well out of my hand for once; usually it takes 10 minutes to get one vial) and got the Toradol when the IV was started and that nurse gave me a cup of ice water. Eventually they took me back for a chest x-ray. I was feeling much better by the time they took me for that but felt slightly worse after because I had to take deep breaths and hold a bar above my head.

A nurse came in a told me that everything with the blood tests looked good except for the blood clot test which was slightly elevated so they were going to do a CT scan. I asked for a cup of ice to suck on (the ice water being long gone) and he said, "No. Not until after the CT scan." I d... ]]> ~Morghandi http://Morghandi.deviantart.com/journal/14487353/ http://Morghandi.deviantart.com/journal/14487353/ Tue, 04 Sep 2007 13:00:57 PDT LilPip! She's such a sweetie!

While my dad, his girlfriend, her daughter and I went camping we had him stay at the vet. They gave him IV fluids and he seemed to be doing ok; he was eating, but having some difficulty using the litter box. We picked him up from the vet the morning after we got home and while he was having a lot of trouble using his back legs, he was eating and drinking on his own. When my mom and I got home from shopping that day, I brought him to the car to see her and he was very weak, but responsive.

The next couple of days he would occasionally jump from the bed to go to the litter box but was so tired he would just end up collapsing and would end up going on the floor. I tried to clean him up using a warm washcloth but he didn't like it so I didn't push it. We can always clean the carpets and sheets, right? He was very dehydrated and whenever he would meow (for food or water) there was a strong odor. He didn't mind being petted and kissed (which he got lots of) so my dad and I just tried to keep him comfortable with his baby food and water. My dad also gave him IV fluids. After a while Tom didn't even try to get up to pee and just went where he laid.

On Tuesday my mom and I took Tommy to the vet and had him euthanized. I got a paw print and some hair to remember him by. It went smoothly but that didn't make it any easier. We've had Tom since he was an itty bitty kitten; 14 years. He really made an impression during his stay at the vet; the vet tech was crying and had snot running down her face. The vet was very nice, but she talked during the entire process and didn't leave us alone with him after she administered the injection. I would have preferred she left the room and come back after we had said goodbye.






We'll all miss you, Tommy. We love you. Keep Missy and Cody company until we can all be together again. May you be happy; may you be at peace; may you be free from suffering.

My dad came home and went to see them and he didn't come inside so my dad went to look for him. He was just laying in the backyard beside the picnic table. My dad thinks he probably had a heart attack.

He came and woke me up when he found him and I went out to see him. He was covered in frost. I went and called mom and she came over to say goodbye.

I'm so sorry, Cody; you shouldn't have had to be alone... I love you so much, baby.... You were my very first puppy. You're such a good boy; you never went in peoples' yards when we took you for walks and you loved to sniff the flowers. You loved to play fetch and tug-o-war with the yellow rings and were such a good boy when we gave you cookies.

I already miss you so much! I'm sorry I wasn't there for you when you needed me, boy. I love you.

This was so sudden... I never expected it... He was always so happy and friendly. He wasn't sick or anything... No warning at all... ]]> ~Morghandi http://Morghandi.deviantart.com/journal/11557249/ http://Morghandi.deviantart.com/journal/11557249/ Wed, 24 Jan 2007 18:57:32 PST

I dropped all of my classes even though I was loving them. I just couldn't bring myself to do the work. Every time I look ahead to see what I want to do with my life, all I see is nothing. I'm starting with a new psychologist. Her name is Laura and she seems nice. I have an appointment with her tomorrow. I have to find a new MD for my Rxs because I'm too old for the one I'm currently using and she's retiring anyway. I feel so worthless and empty and unwanted. I feel like I'm bothering everyone so I just try to be by myself. I feel like I'm bothering my dad because I'm in there every night watching tv. He just goes to sleep anyway, so I guess I'm not that much of a burden. My mom is all upset because of me. I wish I weren't so bothersome. I found some old journals last night and was reading through them. Everything is the same. It keeps repeating itself over and over.

I can't sleep. My pills aren't working. I'm out of one Rx and I keep forgetting to refill it.


I miss my kitty. ]]> ~Morghandi http://Morghandi.deviantart.com/journal/7662081/ http://Morghandi.deviantart.com/journal/7662081/ Fri, 20 Jan 2006 22:09:45 PST My multimedia book is really interesting. I dropped ASL because the teacher wasn't teaching;
she was just signing. I don't think that's fair. I'll wait until fall and take the morning class.
It'll be four or five times a week, but at least I'll actuallty learn something. My ceramics teacher
is cute; he seems like his class will be fun. He seems pretty lax in rules...
Is lax a word? Is it the right word?

Chris and I went to Tokyo Joe's today and it was delicious.
I ran into Chanel working there too. I love Chanel; she's such a sweetheart.

Then we went to Barnes and Noble and I spent $100 of my bond money on, well, pretty much crap.
Two tarot decks, a journal, Cunt, and Pledged. I'm getting into Women's Studies... the last two
were in that section. I would have gotten something from the Gay and Lesbian section but I didn't
have enough money.

After Barnes and Noble we went to Casual Male Big and Tall so Chris could get a sweater, some socks and some shoes and then over to Guitar Center. We didn't get anything there because I was being a bitch and was bored out of my mind.

Then we went to mom's and watched Wild Weddings which was kind of funny.

When we got home I checked my online classes and wrote stuff down and when dad got home we went to Walgreens so Chris could get his pills. Dad and I bought a lot of Pringles and candy and stuff and I got two things of Burt's Bees lip shimmer. Coffee and Mulberry. I like the Coffee one a lot but haven't tried Mulberry yet.

I don't update on dA much. I sure do love it though. I love seeing artists' work. Since I'm not one, it's a nice change.

I do have some good ideas (I think) for ceramics though.

Tomorrow's WW and I sure hope I lost.

Yesterday, October 1, 2005, my cat Missy was put to sleep. She was in complete renial failure and had lost 1 1/2 kidney. The toxins in her blood were so high, they tell me she was in no pain, just delirium. She had blood in her urine from an infection, which shut her kidney (the half she had left) down and made it so she could no longer go to the bathroom. She couldn't get up... she tried, but was just too weak. She kept making little meows the entire time I was with her. We put her on her kitty pillow so she would be as comfortable as possible.

I hope it didn't hurt. I hope she wasn't too scared without me being there all day and night before it happened. I hope she was happy and enjoyed being with me. I love her so much and I always will. She was my best friend. My baby girl.

On top of that, I'm getting a sinus infection. Probably stress induced. I missed both astronomy classes, plus a test, and didn't go to my ASL study group because I keep bursting into tears.

Chris keeps crying too. I didn't realize he loved Missy as much as he does. I whispered in her ear that he loves her and she chirped and wagged her tail. Do cat's wag their tails, or flick them?

It's been a really shitty weekend so far. I'm sick, hurting, lost my best friend and I just can't believe she's gone. She's always been there.

I love you, baby girl. ]]> ~Morghandi http://Morghandi.deviantart.com/journal/6258477/ http://Morghandi.deviantart.com/journal/6258477/ Thu, 18 Aug 2005 04:14:35 PDT
I love ambigrams. They fascinate me. I'm trying to design my own but I find it so difficult for some reason. Maybe it's because I'm not mathmatically inclined. I'll tell myself that instead of I have no talent. Indeed.

I'm working on birth, life, death, destruction, chaos, leo, Morgan, Chris, Tagan, Beth and Ed.

I probably should be working on reading my new text books instead since school starts, hm, Saturday.

And I hurt. The pain just keeps getting worse and I'm sure everyone is getting sick of me talking about it. I got another blood-test and my CRP is up, but that's it. That means almost nothing to me. ]]> ~Morghandi http://Morghandi.deviantart.com/journal/6192483/ http://Morghandi.deviantart.com/journal/6192483/ Wed, 10 Aug 2005 21:47:08 PDT
I don't understand how if I'm being nice and saying that I like someone's art, then I'm a creepy stalker. If you don't like it, then you shouldn't put your stuff where people can see it.

They hurt SO bad. "Well why do you get them since they hurt so bad?" Because it feels GREAT when they stop.

Tagan actually moved down here. Her sister Emily drove her (she's kind of a bitch like I am, but that's ok; I like her still) and they both got her on Saturday. Emily's leaving on Thursday after she helps us clean the bedroom, bathrooms and kitchen. We desperately need her and Tagan's help. Emily's a cleaner and Tagan's an organizer.

For my birthday yesterday, we obviously went and got tattoos, and then went to Casa Bonita with my parents. I was so hungry I got the chicken dinner (I feel really guilty and more than a little sick) and then we went outside so Tagan and Emily could smoke and so Tagan could get her listerine (She got her tongue pierced yesterday) and take my presents to the car. We had a really hard time finding dad's car. The freaking alarm wasn't working. Mom got me some really nice clothes and a teddy bear key chain. Dad got me a replacement Treo and an exercise bike which I've been wanting.

Tagan says she and I are going to work out a lot together and get thin and sexy. I don't think that's possible for me, but the pants she wore last year when she was here are like two sizes too small for her now. She'll probably lose some more because she can't eat with her tongue ring. Silly rabbit.

All in all it was a great birthday. I got more than I've gotten for the past three years and I'm actually almost happy. ]]> ~Morghandi http://Morghandi.deviantart.com/journal/5924979/ http://Morghandi.deviantart.com/journal/5924979/ Wed, 13 Jul 2005 16:10:07 PDT

It is very rare that I am awake before 11:00 if I don't have to be somewhere, but today I woke up at 8:30.

I could NOT get to sleep last night. I was hurting so bad. I took tylenol, ultracet, sleeping pill, niquil, and the pain just wouldn't stop. My knees have been killing me this week for some reason, my hips are so stiff and out of place, my ribs hurt when I breathe, my neck hurts, my shoulders are tight, I've been having headaches all the time, my ear won't heal, my nose hurts, I have a split in my lip, and my sinuses hurt. Man I whine a lot. I think that's why I don't post often. I don't like talking about myself because I always get ridiculed for it later. So I just shut up.

You moved like honey in my dream last night
Yeah, some old fires were burning
You came near to me and you endeared to me
But you couldn’t quite discern me

Does that scare you? I’ll let you run away
But your heart will not oblige you
You’ll remember me like a melody
Yeah, I’ll haunt the world inside you

And my big secret - gonna win you over
Slow like honey, heavy with mood

I’ll let you see me, I’ll covet your regard
I’ll invade your demeanor
And you’ll yield to me like a scent in the breeze
And you’ll wonder what it is about me

It’s my big secret - keeping you coming
Slow like honey, heavy with mood

Though dreams can be deceiving
Like faces are to hearts
They serve for sweet relieving
When fantasy and reality lie too far apart

So I stretch myself across, like a bridge
And I pull you to the edge
And stand there waiting
Trying to attain
The end to satisfy the story
Shall I release you?
Must I release you?
As I rise to meet my glory

But my big secret
Gonna hover over your life
Gonna keep you reaching
When I’m gone like yesterday
When I’m high like heaven
When I’m strong like music
’cuz I’m slow like honey, and
Heavy with mood
