today is definitely my lucky day!
a few months ago, some random guy found my doctoral dissertation online, and paid for me to and my wife to fly across the country to give a talk covering the topic (he photographs the archaeological sites i studied, and wanted my talk to accompany an exhibit of prints he had on at a local art museum). the trip was great, we got along swimmingly.. so today, he contacts me and says he wants me to be his guide out in the desert for two weeks so he can photograph more sites. he's picking me up, covering all expenses (food, gas, lodging), and he's even covering my WAGES while i'm away, since i'll have to take unpaid holiday to make the trip. it's a 100% free vacation to a place i love, doing things i love. very cool. and on top of all that, i just found $400 in cash that i forgot i had! i stashed it like 2 months ago and forgot it was there. very cool indeed. it's about time things went my way. after 2 months of being unemployed, things are starting to fall into place

Doctor's don't always know best. I've got epilepsy and a pineal cell brain tumor. My doctor prescribed me Celexa (an SSRI) when I already have an overactive pineal gland from the tumor. I passed out on numerous occassions from seretonin syndrome.

Doctors can be retarded. My friend's doctor wanted her to switch to a new antidepressant. She told him that she used cocaine and occasionally ecstasy. And he still decided to prescribe her a MAOI, saying that it would take away her depression, and that she would no longer want to use illegal drugs. No joke, that's actually what he said.

Well I bombed a Health exam today. It's my only class I don't have an A or B in which pisses me off. I'll likely fail the class and be sure not to take the same professor again when i retake the class. Such a dumb class, pisses me off that I have to take it. |
