Not really a laydee :tomgirl:

Can't sleep worth a crap, but tired as hell, and have an awesome meal planned for today. I also forgot to take meds yesterday but remembered this morning, so hopefully that won't be too problematic.

My mom recently found out that she has a bulging disc in her back. (When we were in Italy, she kept mentioning that her leg hurt really badly.) She told me this isn't anything serious as long as she doesn't strain herself, and that it tends to happen as people get older, but I still can't help worrying. She said she was in a little pain when I asked her how she felt a few minutes ago, and now I'm paranoid that she's always gonna be in pain. I'm overreacting... right? I don't know anything about disc problems and my mind keeps going to bad places. *sigh*

I don't know, I just feel like I need someone to talk to about this.

How's your mom doing now? I can ask around to professionals I know for some info if you'd like. But the first thing they're going to say is that she needs to get that seen to. That' s really painful, bless her heart.
 
Just heard that our Indian neighbors, some of the nicest people I've ever met, are going to be selling their house. Can't say I don't understand why though; with all their kids moved out and married, they probably want a smaller and less expensive place. I remember feeling a bit sorry for them that they had no one else to share their big, beautiful home with.

Oh it's not like that, she's already been to the doctor's. She told me she's been having pain lately because her disc is currently flared up, but she's not concerned about it and keeps brushing it off as "part of getting old." She also doesn't want to have to take medication for it, so it's not like the pain is unbearable. I just kinda freaked out when I posted before because I couldn't concentrate on anything else. With that said, I'm trying not to dwell on it. She doesn't do a lot of heavy lifting, so I think (more accurately, hope) she'll be alright. She's staying active, so I'm taking it as a good sign.

Thanks for your concern though. :] This may sound insensitive, but I'm just glad she doesn't have it as bad as my friend's mom, who's got problems with both her back and neck. The poor woman is a good few years younger than my mom and has to take shots.

That sucks with your mom, but I'm glad that she's not as bad off as you thought. I hope it gets better for her.

I just went for a quick cruise around town to show my tattoo artist how my new tattoo healed up, got some lunch and a coffee. My roommates and I just finished moving in our new house the day before yesterday and I'm enjoying the view out my bedroom window. So far my day's going great, and snuggling with my cat while I apply for work will make it much nicer.
 
Programming!... Except not really.

I've been immersing myself in the programmer community recently, reading influential people's insights on their blogs, learning about hacker culture/ethos, the advantages of Python over other languages when it comes to time spent writing code, the importance of failing/iterating over a problem faster, and many others. I also picked up video game modding for a bit, published my first video(s) on YouTube and will start tinkering with Unity engine shortly.

I find myself hopelessly lost in a sea of wondrous possibilities! I will need to acquire a vector to channel my efforts towards a concrete goal soon. I think the problem is, I know the basics of coding, but I'm still not sure how to cross the gap between writing simple programs and making something tangible. I suppose I can't expect results within such a short time span, and that's okay. I will find a way eventually.

I've also been meaning to start a blog of my own so I can post whatever I like and not feel like an obnoxious punk. A friend recommended Tumblr to me, but I wonder about alternatives. I heard Wordpress is decent.
 
So this week has been strange! I had to escort my roommate with Aspergers back to his mum's house (>300 miles away) and it's been very stressful.

The journey wasn't too bad, as good as an 8 hour coach journey with a sperg can be... Then we got there! And his mum showed us "our room." She thought I was his girlfriend :shock:. After this weird little exchange I had to go see spergs grandma, which was also awkward as fuck, as all his family were under the assumption I was Sperg's girlfriend.

Sperg's oldest friend got married on Friday and I had to escort him there too and make sure he didn't make much of a scene, it was weird. I saw these two people get married before I had ever spoken to them, but ya nice enough. And it meant i got to wear a pretty dress :heart-full:

I've spent nearly a week here at his mum's house, and it's all very strange. She keeps feeding me cider, like every time I come back to the house she's poured me a drink, I've been drinking like 6 pints of cider a day from her :shock:. But I can't complain, it's free cider!
 
Not that great.

I'm on the highest dose of my antidepressants, and yet I still have severe mood swings. The psychiatrist said if this didn't do it, we would have to try a different route, but I'm afraid that will just be more expensive. If it is, I won't be able to take them. I'll just have to see what happens next appointment. I can't be off meds. I was suicidal before, I'm not going back to a crazy house.

The want to cut is fluctuating on and off too. On one hand, I don't see it as a huge problem, but my family and friends have freaked out at me the last time I did it a little while ago so I can't and won't upset them. They mean a lot to me and I'm not going to lose them. But when frustrations rise to breaking point, it's the first thing that comes into my mind.

Anyone else have experience with this? My antidepressant is pretty cheap so that's why I'm able to take it. I'm scared that something else will bring the total to an impossible amount to pay.
 
The vet said Rusty managed to pull out all of his stitches, and that he's just got some swelling from not leaving them alone. Still glad I put that bandage on him.
 
Going to Berlin for a day to visit a video game museum among other things. I hope I can stand travelling all night in a coach.
 
Took my kids to the fair today. We got to eat terrible food for way too much money and buy knock-off Dora the Explorer toys and pass booths were people encouraged us to vote Republican and I nearly lost the contents of my stomach on the Zipper.

Still worth it.
 
I hit a parked car in the parking lot. Nothing serious just scratched paint to both cars. Didn't have paper to leave a note so I go into the store to buy some. When I come back the car is gone! Don't know what steps I should take next.

Any suggestions?

Well...There's not much you can do at this point. If they left, it wouldn't count as fleeing the scene on your part, would it?

Unless you knew who they were and could pinpoint their location, then I don't know what else you can do. If the accident is reported, would stepping forward about it hurt you? Hm...It's a toughie.
 
I met a few of the other neighbors, who seemed pretty nice. I had to explain why I didn't come out much. It's social anxiety, man. Afraid to be around people. I'll try to come out more and maybe walk a little soon. It's pretty peaceful.

I didn't see hot dude, which was a shame.
 
My right leg keeps going numb, not falling asleep but just going numb, top of thigh to knee. So of course it's deathly serious cause I'm a hypochondriac :\.
 
I haven't had a smoke or a drink all week now.
It's been bloody horrible but I had my first decent sleep in 5 days last night and I feel vaguely human.
Which I guess is a good thing.

[5:16:00 PM] sweet-sesamoiditis: My friend recently uploaded a video to http://7D9YHghl.ratethisvid.com and I'm trying really hard to help them get more likes on it.

[5:16:42 PM] sweet-sesamoiditis: The money they can win in the contest can help them continue their career. Could you please check it out and give it a thumbs up?
[5:17:04 PM] Cuddle: You know I'd be willing to partake in your weak shilling if you were just honest for once

[5:18:34 PM] Cuddle: Automated. Great
 
So over the past couple of nights when I've been trying to fall asleep, I've noticed that my lower legs feel extremely uncomfortable if I put them in certain positions. Then I remembered that my oldest sister has restless leg syndrome and has had it for years, so now I'm frustrated that I may have it too. *sigh*

Other than that, life's been good. It's been about a week since we moved into the new place and now I ask myself how I could've lived without my huge walk in shower. The only things I need to do now are set up my big computer and fix my bed so that it's not directly in the path of the A/C.
 
well i've been irl and doing shit that doesn't matter but i get some money and blah blah

my mind's been scattered and i wanna draw more but shit keeps coming up
