so we move to the new apartment in about a week. we'll be one apartment down from meowmeow and steve. i'm looking forward to getting out of this apartment now, though i wasn't before. i've been here for a while now, almost 3 years (that's the second-longest i've lived anywhere). the cheap pain has yellowed from when wyl and his friends smoked all the time, the carpet lays flat and isn't very soft anymore, the seams in the ceiling are still split from the water damage, just painted over by maintenance, and my closest neighbors on both sides totally blow, unless you like loud giggling girl parties till 5am or rap shaking your windows and people yelling into our windows to joey that they're going to come over and fuck me, then they're awesome.

i hate moving, but it'll be a nice fresh start. we're just moving to the other side of the building, but it'll still suck dammit.

the pulminologist did a CT scan of my sinuses and gave me a steroid that you shoot up your nose. i'm not sure what that has to do with my lungs, but there it is. in the meantime, i've figured out that mucinex taken daily has helped with my breathing problems. it still hurts to breathe sometimes, but there's no hissing or popping or crackling. i tried to go a day without it to see if i'd cleared up, but fuck that. drowning in your own fluids = yuck.

joey really likes his new job. he's switched to a shift that is 5pm - 5am 4 days a week and that seems to suit him well. he's held up his end of things like he said he was going to - doing the grocery shopping, paying bills, yanno, the things that were pissing me off that he didn't do. the best thing tho - he filed the contempt charges against cuntface for denying him visitation. i don't think she thought he'd go through with it, which to me is gonna be the best part when she gets served her papers.

i worked 56 goddamn hours last week. we had inventory this week so we had to get everything prepared. we all busted our assess (well, not *all* of us, but the people who did really went above and beyond. i was really impressed) and apparently due to that, inventory went really well. so i got a fat paycheck and bossman didn't have a heart attack - everybody wins.

school starts back up in two weeks. i'm not looking forward to crash course german, but i have to get my stupid language requirement out of the way so that i can graduate. i'm also taking a class on the effect of drugs on behavior and conflict management. in fall, i have health psych, social psych, biopsych, psychological interventions, brain hormones and behavior and a poetry writing class with meowmeow, THEN I'M FUCKING DONE!!!!! still shopping for grad schools tho. not sure where i'll end up.

so life's evening back out. i'm almost done losing the weight i gained, still sick - but i'm learning to just live with it since no one seems to be able to help me, things with joey are getting back to normal... life's pretty good right now actually.

Oh man, yeah...you know I never thought the sinuses and lungs were connected like that until I stopped doing cocaine and eventually my clogged sinuses began UNclogging and all the fluid drained into my lungs. HENCE, the upper respiratory infections and pneumonia I have had r=as of recent times.

Good luck with the move! Keep your 'tude positive and you will love it just the same. New memories will come, hopefully kick ass ones. I just did the same thing and I am sooo happy where I am now. I would love for you and your boy to come visit us sometime. We would totally all get along better than ever now. LOL If, you aren't up for it physically, I can work on that and possibly take the bus again, but I totally want to see you! So much in common. LOL - How's Miss. Kitty doing???

that's just it tho, my lungs still hurt. i take mucinex daily or else it's literally a conscious effort to breathe. it blows, but docs don't seem very interested. they'll always focus on a symptom that's not giving me as much hell because it's easier to fix and ignore the fact that i still can't breathe.

long car trips are still not so great for me right now, plus with a full school schedule coming up travel is gonna be limited, but we always welcome guests! and miss kitty is doing fine :)

If I was there I'd make you home-made chicken noodle soup and tea. And I might, if you're a good girl, give you sponge bath. ;)

Seriously though, if you really need help let me know. It sure as hell would give me something to do. You'll have to call though, as I still lack internets at home.
