Miscellany

So, there are big, life-changing events going on in the boyfriend's life which, to be honest, have occupied my mind a li-ttle bit more than updating my blog. As things pan out with his situation, updating may be even more sparse. Or more frequent. We shall see.

MARDI GRAS. Well, in two words: Never. Again. Not to complain too much, but I have had it up to my eyebrows with obnoxious, insensitive, immature boys. I don't think I've ever yelled at quite so many (I'm purposely not using the word "men" because they certainly weren't, despite holding college degrees) in such a short amount of time to shut the hell up, THIS IS NOT A SMOKING ROOM, get OFF of me, quit snoring, and did I mention SHUT THE HELL UP? Grrrrr. I'm certainly done putting up with that. And there were only two guys staying in our room with us. Though it felt like 57.

Mark my word, there will be no Mardi Gras '09 for me. Oh, and the drinking all day? Not my cup of tea (with a liberal amount of vodka, mind you) anymore.

In better (and more encouraging) news, I got the results of my mandatory blood work back. "Mandatory" because in order to maintain the preferred health insurance premium (very low co-pays, nearly free prescriptions, etc.) we had to get a full blood profile done, as well as blood pressure, weight, and waist circumference measurements. And guess what? I just may live longer than 30 years! Depsite my near-complete lack of exercising, my HDL (good) cholesterol is in the way-better-than-average range, and my LDL (bad) cholesterol is really low. Woo hoo! Thanks, Mom, for what I presume are your good genes.

Boring, boring, boring, I know. What you really wanna hear about is that news I mentioned in the first paragraph. I'm not quite ready to blog about it, as the boyfriend reads this (although not, I think, with any regularity) and I'm not willing to "publish" my thoughts on the issue(s) as of yet. When I know what's going to happen and have developed a fully-formed opinion and plan, I'll spill. Just not yet.
