Amazing....
Well....most of you probably don't know, but I am slightly obsessed with reading the news. Mostly online - it's crazy all the things you can read. Anyway...California is going crazy with this Prop 8. I am so ready for it to end and so astonished at how many articles I read DAILY about Mormons & Prop 8. I have a horrible way with words most times, but an AWESOME woman I "blogger stalk" (well, I just told her so I guess it isn't stalking anymore) has a completly amazing way of expressing EXACTLY how I feel. If all of us could just understand one another, the world would be a much happier place. Go here and read this post and all the comments.

She's Baaack
Another huge thing is that I spent about 6 hours in the ER this weekend to find out I have gallstones! I woke up in the middle of the night in severe pain. We headed to the ER and after many questions, morphine and ultrasounds, they let me know I needed to get my gallbladder removed! This would explain why I feel horrible after every time I eat! So, I will be having surgery on the 21st of this month to remove my gallbladder! Yay, blogging time! I will be out of work for 10 days! yikes! The doctor suggested 2 weeks, but I just can't afford to take that much time off since I think I only have about 8 hours of paid time off right now. Bad timing!Thankfully I will be having the surgery above, where they only make 4 small incisions instead of one large one. That will make my recovery time a lot easier!
