Reminder...

There are people on the net that have nothing better to do with their time then be nasty to other people online. They post rude comments, spend hours a day talking about sites they hate so much, that they well, spend hours a day talking about them. (lame) They mock the owners and posters for their opinions and their right to free speech. They expect everyone to fit into their narrow-minded little world view or else they throw a temper tantrum.

To these people I say grow up.

Here's a bit of info people...the web is a HUGE place. If you don't like what I say here, or who I am, or what I do, or talk about, or what I look like, or the color of my hair, or whatever asinine thing you dwell on, go somewhere else. It's really, really easy. Honest. You just click the little "x" in the corner of your browser and *poof* the offending, big, mean and nasty site has disappeared.

I pay for this site. It's mine. That means I can use it for whatever the hell I want to. Don't like it if I'm bitching about something in my life? Oh fucking well. Go somewhere else. Think I'm stupid for expressing my thoughts? Too fucking bad, don't read them. Somewhere along the line, someone forgot this simple fact: Live and let live Don't like me, cool, fine, whatever, I don't care. This journal is NOT for you. It's for me. I'm not in it for popularity or fame or anything stupid like that. I write it because I need to write and express myself and get things out of my head sometimes. So read or don't, it doesn't matter, but don't waste my time (or yours) bitching about it.

*gets off soapbox*

Quiet on the Homefront
I know I haven't really been updating this week. It's just been a bad week. Absurdly horrible fatigue issues and serious, tylenol-ain't-touching-it, who-stabbed-a-knife-in-my-back (and why-can't-someoneremove-it) chronic pain issues in my neck and right shoulder have sapped pretty much every ounce out of me this week. I don't know why it's been so bad but it really has. It's days like this that remind me just how serious my health can be when it's at it's worst. It also scares me into thinking more and more that it's all probably connected. That my fear of fibro probably isn't far off the mark. All the various issues and individual problems are classic textbook symptoms of the condition. Rather then being odd, random, issues on their own, it seems more and more likely that times like this are actually a "flare up" of the overlying problem and why I'm being hit with so much all at once.

If it wasn't enough that I feel like shit, I somehow got a chip in my glasses about 10 days ago. It's dead center in the left lens. When you're blind like I am, even the tiniest of chips is MASSIVE and magnified in your vision as you look through the glass. I see it constantly. Constantly. And when I try to be on the computer or watch tv, the brightness of the backlightning makes it even more obvious. It's driving me absolutely insane. Since I need a new prescription anyway - it's been a little over two years since I got these - I definitely can't afford to get this pair fixed AND get a new pair. But I can't get an eye exam and new pairs (I need sunglasses and regular glasses since this is Florida and I already have cataracts. No. *sighs* Really. Yes you can get them in your 20's though - lucky me - it's really rare.) Last time, it was around $350 for exam and both pairs. And that was with an amazing deal because I know someone who works at a glasses store. It would have been around $800 retail for the two pairs. (Talk about mark-up, hu?) The lens for my regular glasses alone are around $130 EACH.

Anyway, needless to say, I don't have a few hundred dollars right now. I'm scheduled to temp on Friday and possibly either next Friday or the one after, so I'll put that in the eye glass fund, but it's still going to be less then half of what I need. (Two days at the temp job is $160.) I just don't know how long I can deal with this damned chip. Anyone who wears glasses will understand how headache-inducing it can be. I'm so careful with them and I wear them every waking moment, but somehow...chip.

So it's a bad week. And I'm frustrated and broke and not feeling well and needing to expidite my too-weak prescription process sooner rather then later. All easier said then done. So anyone who might have been thinking about ordering a necklace, or bracelet or earrings or rune set, I'd appreciate it if perhaps now was the time you put in an order. PhoenixFireDesigns.com Every little bit will help.

Alright, I guess I should head out. I really should have tried to go to bed earlier tonight to try to get ready for Friday's WAY early wake-up call, but like everything else, my sleep schedule's been fritzy this week.

Ta for now.
