Well it's Christmas time already! The year seems like it almost flew by. Anyways, tonight I am going to spend Christmas Eve at my brother Tim's place. Tommorrow I may be going to my oldest brother Rich's place. haha.

I'm really looking forward to going to see my nieces and nephews, and give them presents! haha! My 3 year old nephew Drake is so excited about Christmas. He's been running around for the last couple weeks, yelling "Merry Christmas!!" and "Santa's Coming!!" He's so cute! They all are!

Also, I am gonna post the link to my Christmas memory/story, that I posted up on my Gather.com page. Click the title below...
Magic Of Christmas

Anyways, I just wanted to make a blog of it this year. And wish everyone...

A Very Merry Christmas!!

Halloween 2006 was awesome for me!! No, I didn't party my ass off and get super drunk, but I'm not a person who needs that to have a good time! As a lot of you know, I dressed as a vampiryss this year! Hehe... It's kinda funny to me, because I know the whole "vampire" thing is done a lot, however I never have dressed as a vampire before, so this year I decided to go for it.

So yeah, during the trick-or-treaters going by, in between passing out candy, I was getting ready for my night out. It was so funny, because after I had my teeth on, I had all these kids just staring up into my teeth (lol) with big wide eyes. I had one kid stutter to me, "Nice... nice... (he looks down, then up at me) Nice costume." I was all, "Thank you sweety." It was funny to me. I didn't think my fangs would freak anyone out. lol.

Jersey was over during the trick-or-treaters coming through. She helped me pass out candy, and snapped some shots of me in my costume (the ones your seeing). Well you know, being dressed as a vampire, I had to take a victim. lol. So since Jersey wasn't in her Halloween costume at that point, I chose her! LOL. Anyways, I grabbed the camera, and snapped a couple shots of me going for her neck! Haha...

After the adorable kids in costumes were done, Jersey took off to get some stuff done (and get ready for later), as I took off with a couple friends that I had previous plans with. It's a tradition for me and my best friend of 18+ years to  have coffee on Halloween, after the trick-or-treaters go by. So we headed up to the Truck Stop and had some coffee for a couple hours. It was fun walking in, as when we first arrived it seemed we were the only ones dressed up. I would post a photo of the three of us together, however I forgot to ask permission to post their photo, and I'm not about to post a photo of someone without their permission. Anyways, it was kinda funny cause a couple of the servers at the Truck Stop were like, "Let me see those teeth!" lol. Got some compliments on how "natural" they look. I was also asked how I kept them in place! Hehe...

So after I made my way back home, I called up Jersey and we shortly after went back out for more coffee! LOL. She was dressed so cute as a little kid. She even had her "WishBear" CareBear. lol! It was adorble. We didn't spend too much time over at our favorite Steak-N-Shake, before heading over to bug my momma. We accidently woke her up! She was amazed by my teeth.... and my boobs for that matter! LOL. But over at my momma's house I was sure to get a photo of me and Jersey together. So here it is....

And that pretty much sums up my Halloween in short, lol. Hope you've all enjoyed the photos, haha. I had a really fun night! I love Halloween, it's my all time favorite holiday!!

I hope you all have had a really fun and safe Halloween!

So I am getting ready to finish off a busy week, with a huge long day tommorrow. My week has been busy enough, that I just want two seconds to stop and breathe for a minute! LOL. It's been one thing right after another. Whether it be coffee with friends, to looking into a new business oppertunity, to helping my mom grieve with all these anniversaries coming up, to whatever!! lol. It sucks, because for a couple weeks (at least) now, I've been meaning to go through my stuff to sell online. Autographs, books, movies, cds, etc. Whatever I find, that I'm ready to part with. lol. So I'll probably be setting up an eBay account soon, to throw things on there, although I might just post a list on here later with stuff I'm selling in case any of you want first dibs at buying something. lol.

My Jersey Girl came back today! She went away for a friend's wedding. We hung out tonight. And while we were eating at Friday's she took a couple of pictures of me tonight....

So I ended up back in the E.R. over my leg again. *sigh* I am so sick of constantly hurting. Anyways, my leg was getting really bad Sunday through-out the day. It swelled up a little more, this freakin' bump on my leg has gotten bigger.

But anyways, my friend went ahead to pick me up. (Yep, you guessed it, Jersey). We were both having a pretty crappy night (each for our own reasons) as it was. Well she picked me up, and on our way to the E.R., not very far on the high way, she got a flat. Let me tell you how hard it is at like 3:30 - 4:00am to get ahold of someone that could help us out. Finally we did get a hold of someone, and called a tow and got her car fixed. It took awhile though, and during the stress of that (on top of everything else) my chest wall spasms started acting up again. She kept sweetly telling me, "Don't worry sweet, I'll get you to the hospital." We just had to get her freakin' car all better.

Well when that was all said and done, we headed off to the hospital. By the time we got there, the chest pains were getting pretty strong. So now I was not only have even more leg pains (if that was freakin' possible) but I also was dealing with these damn chest pains. I figured it was chest wall spasms, because I've been dealing with them since I was 17 years old. I get them when I am extremely stressed out.

So Jersey ended up going ahead of me, because we parked very close to the E.R. enterance, but I crossed the street and not even half way to the door had to stop and wait for a wheel chair. It's hard to breathe when in that much pain. So the people always by the door pushed me in, and Jersey helped me get to registration and pulled me over by the waiting section.

They got me in pretty quickly, but the doctor I had was a dumb-ass. I swear he must of had his head up his own ass, cause he certainly wasn't listening to what was being said to him. I had to repeat several times who my regular doctor is, and who was the doctor that did the nerve test. Well the doctor that did the nerve test was a neurologist. He kept asking if he was. The freakin' E.R. doctor acted like he had never heard of a neurologist before or something. It was insane! No... scratch that, it was pure frustration. Then it moved on to why I was there. I told him originally, for my leg, but I was also have intense chest pains. I did explain to him I've been dealing with chest wall spasms since I was 17 years old, and he was all, "Well let's look at this leg..." So ignore the fact that the patient is holding her chest in pain. LOL. So he looks at my leg and is all, "Well let's get some blood work and an x-ray done. Still nothing on my freakin' chest, and I had told him I was there for both items. I also had informed him of what tests have been done on my leg, and the my doctor wants me to get an MRI done, but I don't have insurance right now. So I'm trying to get medicaid, before he orders the test to be done.

Well a little later a nurse came in (she was sweet), and when we told her about the chest she went and grabbed another nurse (cause the first one is new to that hospital and still getting used to where everything is), and they hooked me up with sticky things for an E.K.G. machine to moniter my heart. They also took my blood pressure which at that point, it was actually a little high. Not too much, but a little bit. Anyways, these ladies obviously had more brains then the freakin' doctor did. They were very sweet. Even the cranky lady that came into draw my blood was nice. Well she was cracky in the sence that you could tell she had a long night, and was more then ready to get out of there, but she was still nice to me. I hate needles... *shudders* It's never a pleasant experience for me to get shots or blood drawn, lol.

Anyways, a lady shortly after came him took me down to the X-Ray room. OMG! That was torture as well, the girls down there were really nice. But they had to bend my bad leg in certain positions to get a good shot of my bones. They kept apologizing, and so was I. lol. I was shaking a bit, and I couldn't help it. I tried my hardest to stay still for most of it, but I was in so much freakin' pain.

After that I eventually see a that damn excuse of a doctor again, and he's with another guy. I'm assuming the X-Ray guy, I just had two ladies messing with my leg, so he could of been in the little room or whatever off from the X-Ray machine. Anyways, my bones are clear. The doctor (not the x-ray guy), proceeds to tell me it's nothing serious because the blood tests came back clear, and the bones are clear and the previous tests done on my leg came back clear. I still haven't had an MRI. They told me they don't do them through the E.R. unless it's an actual emergancy. Anyways, I looked at him, and said, "If it's nothing serious then why have I been in constant pain for three and a half months. The pain didn't get better or stay the same, it just gets worse. I have more problems in my leg now then what I started out with. He couldn't give me an answer. The x-ray guy told me to get an MRI done, that I should talk to my doctor about getting one done. That's when me and Jersey told him, that I had informed the E.R. doctor about my own doctor wanting me to have an MRI but I am trying to get insurance right now, so I can. AHHH!!!!

At the end him and the x-ray doc left, all they said was "There's nothing else we can really do." and they left. Said nothing about releasing, or anything, so I hit the nurse button after like 20 minutes of us waiting there. So when this nice RN came in, I told her the situation and complained to her about the doctor's behaivor. She apologized and thanked me for my feedback. She also gave me some motrin, and helped me get released.

OMG!!!! Some other small details went on, but I just don't have the energy to go into it right now. It was just a horrible time. Although at the end me and Jersey were both so stressed out, that everything just became funny. We both had a horrible night, and it was just too much for a bit. We had both been up all night, so we stopped and got something to eat after the E.R., then returned to my house where she crashed on my bed while I made some phone calls that I needed to make.

I was pretty much up all day and night still. I still haven't gone to bed. I dozed in and out on the couch while watching television earlier, but I couldn't get comfy so I just stayed up, and then when I went to Jersey's place with her after she got up (she made me dinner, it was YUMMY!) I did end up crashing for roughly 10 minutes at her place while she was cooking. So that's all I've had. I'm still awake, and it's freakin' TUESDAY now!!!

So I am on my way to bed shortly, I just wanted to update everyone.
