Wow....news news, and more news.

Sheol, send Slav my best...I can't imagine witnessing a car wreck and seeing people die...I hope Slav wasn't involved and that he's alright?

Affy, I'm sorry to hear about the kidney stones. If it's any consolation, I know how you feel. They run in my family, I've passed a small one myself, and my grandfather and uncle are so prone to them that they've actually been able to adapt their lives around them when they happen. Drink LOTS of citrus and cranberry juice...that's supposedly good for you. Also, try to stay away from foods and drinks high in minerals, cause that's what causes the buildup in your kidneys. For me, I have to cut down on how much tea I drink (and THAT is a sacrifice, lemme tell ya...one I haven't quite made yet..... sweatdrop ) My uncle got one of those "daily dose of water" bottles that holds about 8 cups of water, and he carries that around everywhere and drinks from it all day long. You should get one of those. They're dead handy.

Oh, ouch.

I've had kidney infections before-- the first time was so bad I had to stay in the hospital for a few hours while they put me on fluids-- but never stones. Good luck with that, seriously.

Like Manda said, cranberry juice is magic (I get cran-strawberry, 'cause straight cranberry is too tart for me. whee ). I haven't gotten a single kidney infection, or, hell, even a UTI, since I've been drinking the juice. 3nodding

The hell???

Every 220 volt outlet in my room just died confused My 110s are still up, but it's still strange, and more that just a small annoyance...My ceiling fan isn't working either, and its the only way that I can get air moving in my dorm without having my door or windows hanging wide open. Which means I'm gonna roast when I go to bed >_> it took out my modem, too, so I'm forced to mooch from a random, unsecured wireless router somewhere in the building. But, like I said, the vastly more important thing is the fan.

And knowing CE, like I do, I won't be able to get anything fixed for quite a while, like...three months? Yeah >_>  

[Zanzarus]

Ouch... I feel your pain... Kidney stones are on par with giving birth, from what I've heard. Well, when they pass anyways. My dad was in the hospital for one of his... And as for me feeling your pain, pancreatitis is like having a kidney stone. Same (if not a little less) pain in the same area, and is commonly mistaken for kidney stones. /pat You'll be fine n___n  

[Krissim Klaw]

(Offers huggles to Affy) Aww sorry to hear about the Kidney stones, but at least you know what is wrong now. I hope everything goes ok and they pass safely. I never had them, but I know they must be painful. My mom got some a few months after giving birth to me, and she says its the only pain she's ever had that comes close to labor pains. ;.;  

[Af Mas]

Thanks everyone. I'm doing okay right now. No pain so far. I just know that someday they'll wanna pass, and that's when I'll need to biggest support

Did the doctors even mention the option of breaking the stones up?  

[Crenn]

After I finish the laptops, I may have more work from the place I'm currently working out. Nothing is official, but one of the employees asked if I would be interested doing some other work (didn't say exactly what) but I said I wouldn't mind as long as it didn't interfer with my uni work or my occasional events (aka BWL). And he said it was fine and would keep me in mind. So it may be possible that I have more work on the way and maybe a more permenant job!

Sort of. They refered me to the Urologist. We'll figure out there what we can do  

[Crenn]

I managed to sleep for 5 hours in the afternoon..... I must be tired and don't know about it.  

[Davin_Nightwind]

Ok, I was pleasantly surprised when I got home from work today...CE came and fixed the power!

On a side note, I didn't realize that my fridge was 220 until this morning when I grabbed a Mountain Dew. I'm like "Oh...crap..." XD  

[Af Mas]

You know what else sucks? I caught a pretty nasty cold, so I have to deal with that on top of this other stuff. I'm not sure I can take anything for it though...  

[Selene Aries]

Does anyone know what Sabi.exe changed their name to? I believe they are aslo known as Wasabi.

I thought she was called Punch IT for a while  

[Sonya Khatsworth]

Wheee, my ear hurts less now. Well, like, almost not at all anymore, except if I'm playing with the lobe for whatever reason. Still feels like it's clogged, but it's nothing urgent enough to be worth sitting 5 hours in a waiting room to see a doctor for yet.

In other news though, my cousin got back to me, and I'm getting my stuff ready to go take the ferry across the Saint-Laurent from Oka to go spend the weekend on the north shore with her.
Coincidentially (we didn't realise until now) but it's also Saint-Jean Baptiste day here in Quebec during the weekend, so a lot of people have a day off monday, and as such, a good chunk of my dad's side of the family is getting together at my cousin's place tonight (my dad excluded apparently, I'm guess because my mom still doesn't like his side of the family) soooo I'm really excited right now, some of these people I haven't seen in over 5 years cause my mom and dad rarely ever go see them. >_>
