Lastnight I rushed over to my Moms side of town because my sister told me my Mom was going into the hospital. To sum it all up, we found out that it is most likely fybroid tumors and her uterus is enlarged. They really couldn't do much for her except give her a prescription for vicoden, and some antibiotics to prevent infection. Unfortunately she doesn't have any money to get the prescriptions filled and is in an immense amount of pain. They told her she needed to go to a gynecologist. So she's gonna call UTMB (I think it's a free clinic) since she doesn't have insurance, and see what they can do for her there. Most likely they will put her on the pill to see if that will regulate everything, but if not they're thinking a hysterectomy might be in order. You guys, PLEASE be praying for my Mom. She doesn't deserve this. She's been working her rear end off at a minimum wage job to keep a roof over my sisters heads and just believing God for the rest. I'm believing for a miracle of any kind for my Mom's situation. Whether it be financial so that she can take care of all of this stuff medically and atleast get her prescriptions filled, or physically so that this whole ordeal is just OVER! Thanks in advance for taking this before the Father. Peace!

Mom is ok for now. It ended up being some female problems. Unfortunately, she doesn't have the money to take care of it, and no one will cover her cuz they say she makes too much money (B.S.). Just pray guys, cuz what's going on with her really shouldn't be left untreated. Thanks.

So, I have been the queen of nostalgia the last 2 weeks. So many things that I can't quite pinpoint, but I've just missed stuff. Superbowl Sunday I was supposed to have a big party of people from my old high school youth group, my dad (the youth pastor), and it was gonna be awesome. Well one of the people who was supposed to bring about half the people in his car ended up not being able to make it, so I just cancelled it. And I missed my old rock 'n' roll, kinda punk rawkish style. The way I dressed, the music I listened to (Ska, Punk, and the like). It was just a lot of fun. So I went and bought a few things that I would have worn at one time. I looked and the mirror and smiled. I felt like me.
What is it that just makes you always wanna do what you used to do, be who you used to be, hang with the friends you used to? Man we used to have fun. I've had the biggest craving to jump in a moonwalk or on a trampoline. Maybe it has to do with growing up and reverting back to a time when you didn't have to? I don't know.
I'm just know I'm glad to have my studded belt, my copy of the first Supertones album, an electric guitar belt buckle, my converse shoes, the oppportunity to hang with old friends, and my continued search for the Five Iron Frenzy "Quantity is Job1" album, with the "These Are Not My Pants" Rock Opera... *sigh* you gotta love it!

So this weekend was pretty fun. I went to Leighs and we wrote a song together. We have the music and melody line down. I'm still arranging the words, but I'm very excited at how it is turning out.
I made my family and Leigh watch Napoleon Dynamite... hehehe I have to share the joy! :) I also watched Alien Vs. Predator with the guys. I was gonna go home relatively early on Sunday night, just so I could have a long night of sleep, but they really wanted me to stay and watch the movie, so I did. It was pretty good. Not as gory or scary as I thought it would be, so that was a little disappointing.
That's all for now, I've got to be getting to my 2nd class in a second. I am looking forward to Superbowl big time. Gonna have a good time. To see an ad that will not be playing during Superbowl this year go to Budweiser.com
