Testing… 1,2,3
Posted on Tuesday, 31st May 2005 at 12:40am20 Comments Ensuing
My B12 and Folate levels are really low, so low that it’s affecting my red blood cell count or something to that effect. I was trying to read the test results upside down and couldn’t read it properly (if only I was equipped with eyes that could flip vertically), I could only make out a line or two which said that low levels are rare for my age range (I’m special) and it needs to be investigated and treated.
Now before you start with the ‘eat/do this Kitta’, know that I am eating and doing everything that should be done, yet they’re still quite low. I have to endure more tests this week (in hospital, aka: my home away from home) to investigate and possibly diagnosis the cause, hopefully it will just be malabsorption and all I’ll need is some vitamin jabs and enzymes to get back on track.
Oddly enough I don’t feel too bad, I feel a bit tired and I have a kind of sickly malaise feeling going on, but always thought one would feel terrible with levels so low. Although as a friend pointed out, I’ve been sick for so long I might be downsizing a ‘like hell’ to a ‘not too bad’ feeling because I no longer know what ‘great mate’ feels like. It’s a real mind fuck.
Whatever you do, never get sick, and if you do have private health insurance… No scratch that… Be a fucking millionaire, that way you can have a team of doctors (of whom you can beat if they step out of line) working non-stop to treat your afflictions in the shortest amount of time possible, you could also hire some minions to bring you food and do tricks to entertain you. Dance minions, dance.
Wish me luck.
Hit with a literary stick

There seems to be another meme involving a stick making it’s way around the blogs and Oxton has passed it on to me, I hear this one will infect our blogs if we do not comply, so once again I’m going to do another stick meme just to be on the safe germ free side. We wouldn’t want my blog getting sick now, would we?

Super Defaced
Posted on Thursday, 26th May 2005 at 3:51am19 Comments Ensuing
Finally the day has come, the day myself and thousands of Star Wars fans have been dreaming of, Super Shadow’s (aka SS, Mickey Suttle and various other fake names, but I like to call him Super Stupid) website has been defaced and for once the net if free of his mind numbing lies.
For those of you who are lucky enough to know nothing of Super Shadow, here’s an update: Super Shadow is a low life that for years has lied to Star Wars fans and even ripped off a few unfortunate ones here and there, he also likes to steal pictures of random girls (including mine) to post on his website and claim that the girls in them are his girlfriends, and that’s not all. He constantly tells anyone who cares to believe his lies that he’s best buddies with George Lucas.
I said it before and I’ll say it again… If he knows George Lucas then I have a pet dinosaur made out of gold in my backyard that like to eats spoons.
The people at G00ns fucking rock, hats off and applause to them for bringing the nets biggest liar down.
Emailing England
Posted on Saturday, 21st May 2005 at 7:16pm38 Comments Ensuing
My mother isn’t very good with computers, sure she can type up letters and play solitaire, but anything to do with the internet eludes her, especially when it comes to email…
Mum: I have to send an email to someone I know in England.
Me: Do you have her email address?
Mum: Yes, but she’s in England.
Me: So…
Mum: She’s in England.
Me: Mum, you can send and check email from wherever you are in the world; it’s not like a physical street address with a mailman who sometimes gets drunk and loses the mail.
Mum: Oh. Are you sure?
Me: Yes mum, I’m sure.
Mum: But she’s in England, how will it get there?
Me, mumbling under my breath: On the back of a magical email elf that likes to eat peas dipped in cranberry sauce and listens to Enya.
Mum, who thankfully wasn’t listening closely enough to hear my smart-assed reply: What?
Me: Nothing, just send the email to her.
Mum: Ok.
A short time later she returns with an accomplished smile on her face…
Mum: You were right, I sent it, and she replied.
Me: No kidding.
Mum: Yes, it’s amazing this email thing.
Me: That it is.

Sergio ‘GP’ Villarreal has passed me the musical baton and I’m going to go with the flow because I heard a rumour that if you don’t take the baton you’ll be severely beaten with said baton. I’m not in a baton beating mood, so here we go…
Total volume of music on my computer
9.62 Gb
The last CD I bought
George’s singles ‘Bastard Son’ and ‘Special Ones’ on eBay over a year ago, I’m not big on hardcopy music unless I really love the artists work.
Song playing right now
‘Every fucking city’ – Paul Kelly
Five songs I listen to a lot, or that mean a lot to me:
- “Throw your arms around me” by The Hunna’s
- “Are you gonna be my girl” by Jet
- “Special ones” by George
- “Halcyon (live)” by Orbital
- “Over the rainbow/wonderful world” by IZ
Five people to whom I’m passing the baton:
What’s that?

My brother and I are sitting down eating dinner of veggies, kababs and rice when he starts to make a mound with his rice…
Me: What are you doing?
Him: Making a castle.
Me: Ok.I place a pea upon the top of his newly formed rice castle.
Him: What’s that?
Me: A castle warming present for your castle.He flicks it away.
Me: You’re lucky.
Him: Why?
Me: That was a trojan pea, I was going to try and take over your castle.
Him: Ah ha!
Me: Although, I could also invade via the sea off peas which is quite close to your castles boudaries.He grabs a carrot and places it between his peas and rice.
Me: What’s that?
Him: I just installed a firewall.
Nodey’s results
Posted on Thursday, 12th May 2005 at 11:27pm15 Comments Ensuing
Ultrasound of neck and F.N.A.
- Clinical Details: Four months right cervical node. Some symptoms of immune disorder. Clinically reactive node.
- Findings: The palpable nodule indicated by the patient does correspond to a reactive appearing lymph node at the cervical chain superiorly, measuring 4mm in short axis. It retains a normal echo pattern and shape. No pathologically enlarged lymph node is seen elsewhere at either anterior triangle of the neck. Both submandibular glands and the thyroid gland are normal in appearance.
Meaning it is a lymph node that is reactive and my thyroid glands are fine. Pathology reported that they didn’t get an ‘ideal sample’ of it, which is odd since the doctor passed the needle 3 bloody times, but the samples taken showed no signs of anything sinister. Unfortunately the doctor I saw today wasn’t the doctor I’ve been seeing since I got out of hospital, so he wasn’t sure where to go from here. He said to keep an eye on it and come back in a month so he can see how it’s going, if it hasn’t subsided by then and I’m still not feeling well they might do another biopsy..
I’m going to name it Nodey, because one must always name their reactive nodes.
