No, urine trouble

I'm kinda perturbed with the lab. When I walked down the street with my jug o' urine and arrived at the lab, they informed me that they actually needed to give me a specific collection container. They said that they had a kit they needed to order for the 24-hour test. So, it appears as though that entire shenanigan was for nothing whatsoever. Congratulations on: 1) making me do all that for nothing, and 2) dragging out this "what's wrong" thing out a little longer.

Although it's very rare for me to go shopping, I've got to admit that I went AGAIN yesterday. I was so excited to have my Thursday night free that I went to a few stores on the way home. I got three items, and they include: a new purse (it is made out of recycled bottles!), a pair of bright blue shorts (just like the gray ones from Wednesday), and a pair of skinny jeans. Yes, I said it - skinny jeans. I've always been too weirded out by the way I look in them, but these fit like they were made for me...a 4-inch taller version of me. I'm still slowly adjusting to the thought of them by trying them on periodically throughout the day.

I know I am talking about it more than I should, but I really don't feel well. I woke up this morning sounding absolutely horrible. It got a little better as the day went on, but I'm feeling gross again now. I am doing my vest in hopes of helping the situation, but it feels like it's mainly sinus-related. A part of me wonders if it's time to go back to the ENT to talk about Sinus Surgery #3. NOT INTERESTED.

I ran three miles today and then jumped in the pool. It was miraculous!

Yesterday I had Willy's and a good time. It, too, was miraculous!

I'm watching the Braves right now. This game has been such a roller coaster! Not too long ago, they were down 4-1. Then B-Mac got a 3-run homer, resulting in a tie game. Pretty much immediately after that, the Marlins got another run, pulling into the lead. Then, in the top of the 9th, there was not only a rain delay, but the Braves pulled ahead 6-5. There is one out in the bottom of the 9th and I'm praying the Braves can pull this through. Go team!

Tomorrow I plan to go to the pool and then go out with some friends. Exciting!

Put on my new suede boots and I boarded the train

So, I thought of that title earlier today and totally forgot about belting it out at a bar the weekend before last. Man, that was kinda fun, but that moment is over. Moving forward... onwards and upwards.

I went to Marshalls today for my telecommuting lunch break and got some super-cute suede boots. They are flat and gray, and I make them look good. I also got a pair of gray shorts. I don't envision myself ever wearing those items simultaneously. The boots were only $29, but I found online that the actual retail price is........ TWO-HUNDRED AND TWENTY DOLLLLLARS. Can we say 'bargaining baller'?

WAY TO SCREW UP, BRAVES. Sorry. Forgive me for that anger. They're in the 12th inning, which is annoying in and of itself, but geez louis.* Get it together. High five on giving up two runs. NOT.

I sound entirely too hyper for it to be after 11:00 p.m., huh? I'm just in a really good mood. I woke up feeling awful (like really sick) today and, although my physical health is not my strength these days, I feel really great mentally. I need to recuperate this weekend.

Mmm, I better get to bed. I have to take my JUG O' URINE to the lab in the morning before our going-away pancake breakfast with the old boss. I guess I made it a pancake breakfast in my head, but it's not technically a pancake breakfast. I'm also going out to lunch tomorrow. I'm excited!

I exercised like a champ today, which makes me happy because I think it will help me feel better.

*I spell "geez louis" the way I pronounce it, which is like the way the city St. Louis is pronounced. I know that's not the phrase, but I pronounce it that way because I think it's better like that. It also originated from someone at one of my sister's former jobs who seriously said it that way.
