I have been sick with this cold and it got worse. I started having sever chest pain so I was taken by ambulance to Grady when I got home from work. I wished I would have stayed home.

There was this head nurse and she was a bitch. I had an asthma attack in the waiting room and fell onto the floor. The woman started screaming at me and I quote
"You need to get up and behave yourself. You are making a fool of yourself in front of everyone. You are fine because i did the EMS evaluation myself. Now get up,"

She kept saying that over and over and then she faded away. I had stopped breathing for a minute or so and I kept pointing my throat trying to signal that I couldn't breathe. My mother gave me HER inhaler and put it in my mouth and pushed the wonderful albuterol in my mouth. It was the medicine and the bitch's yelling that brought me back. I thought it was over for a minute. I mean, everything went black. There was this abyss that was pulling me away from it all.


Security came--they have metal detectors in the ER and were there the whole time, but the guy tried to help me up. The bitch/nurse told him

"No! Don't you dare help her she is fine. You will hurt yourself,"

I said a prayer for that security guard since I couldn't talk to tell him thanks.

Anyway, they finally saw me and I was sent to the asthma room and was on oxygen for the next five hours.

Haha this is funny. My mom, YoungAtHeart found this on someone's blog (I forgot who lol) so I took the test. She is the moon. Mine is Strenght, which is also my personal numerology card or however you say it. You know, when you add up your birthdate, month, and year to get a single number. My number is 8 so in Tarot Major Arcana, my card would be the number 8, which in most decks is Strength.

Kinda cool

You are The Moon

Hope, expectation, Bright promises.

The Moon is a card of magic and mystery - when prominent you know that nothing is as it seems, particularly when it concerns relationships. All logic is thrown out the window.

The Moon is all about visions and illusions, madness, genius and poetry. This is a card that has to do with sleep, and so with both dreams and nightmares. It is a scary card in that it warns that there might be hidden enemies, tricks and falsehoods. But it should also be remembered that this is a card of great creativity, of powerful magic, primal feelings and intuition. You may be going through a time of emotional and mental trial; if you have any past mental problems, you must be vigilant in taking your medication but avoid drugs or alcohol, as abuse of either will cause them irreparable damage. This time however, can also result in great creativity, psychic powers, visions and insight. You can and should trust your intuition.

Defy my desire
throw my emotions away
Like trash
You go in circles
Denying yourself someone real
Chasing after false gold
When you have the option of
Platinum
You ache to be love
Yet don't know how
You reach for her
To find an empty space
You smile at her
Only to be used
Stability is not your greatest achievement
Materialistic possibility is as far as you wish to go
And here I am, beyond the other side
So far so close
Far enough from you
Yet under your nose
and still you continue to pretend
That I am nonexistent.

Don't mess with me! I have a missile in my basement!

Well, I don't, but someone else does. It's a funny story really. I caught in on the news. This lady was married to a member of the National Guard and one day he brought home a pet...a pet missile.

They are getting a divorce and she contacted the Guard and they were like OMG We need that back!

Is there anyone else out there that has unique and exotic pets?

I am just sitting here watching the news when this came on. This is really sick. This guy cut off his pit bull's ears because he thought it would look cool. They showed the animal and he was in a lot of pain. His ears were bloody.

That guy needs to have his ears cut off.

Anyway here's the news link for it:

How would you like it if someone broke in your home and took everything you owned? You shot them in self defense yet you were the one jailed. It's kinda like that on a national level. Illegal immigrants keep coming in our country, taking our jobs, and now our country is paying for it.

They should be shot. I watched CNN about the border patrol shooting drug smugglers coming into OUR country yet the officers were arrested. What is wrong with this? The illegal aliens should be shot, but not killed. They need to be stopped. If we illegals working for less than the minimum wage, there goes more jobs, and there goes more people trying to pay the bills.
