Oh My God, I cannot believe I just asked Nathan Fillion to be my myspace friend. I mean, yea he already has, like, 2000 friends, but Ryan Reynolds is one of them. I am just one of those crazy fans (granted, I just want to be updated when he writes in his blog, but I digress) i still feel really effing embarrassed. Maybe it is just my reaction to the heart meds. I am shaking all over.

So, where have i been intimate nobody known as the internet? Well, I graduated (yay) and am currently going to grad school (yay).New Orleans is getting back on its feet. The progress is getting better, if you ask me, although the prices for apartments are still outrageous! So I live on campus, but I will have to move out soon, due to lack of funds. See, I was diagnosed with congestive heart failure about 9 months ago, and because of the ridiculous price of meds in this crazy country (United States of Greedy Assholes!) I have burned through my financial aide really quickly, and I have been in denial about it and living off credit. Now I am even more in debt than just student loans. So i try to get a part time job, and i return to working with coffee, seeing as how it was the only job i really enjoyed on a part time basis, yet, low and behold, I can't do that kind of physical labor. It seems that if i am on my feet for more than an hour i get mucho nauseated and risk passing out. So I had to quit the job with no notice. and here i am, broke and feeling useless.

However, the weight loss is going well, which is why i have decided to start posting on my blog again. I am currently waiting for my new scale to arrive, my old one broke and i wanted to buy (on credit) a really nice one that did BMI as well as weight. So when that arrives I will inform the mysterious people who might possibly read this how my weight loss is going. I guess just the fact that I am "publishing" my weight loss journey makes me feel, i don't know, like i have imaginary support i suppose.

Anyway, i must do some homework.

the great and powerful andrea
