Tongue Piercing

Finally got it done at Westcoast Piercing in Surrey last Saturday afternoon. Didn't hurt when she did it, more like a burning sting. Hurt more later, lots of shaved ice and Advil, for the pain and swelling. Thanks to Dad for buying us a Margarita machine last Christmas, lots of shaved ice. Still not as bad as I thought it would be. Hellish eating though! Made some vegetable and black bean soup pureed. It's day 4 now and it's getting better. Still taking some Advil. Talking is getting better now too. Quite a bad speech impediment at first. S's are still funny. I like it. I know most people think I'm crazy, well you know me, I am crazy!
Here it is...

New Laptop!


Yeah! Got myself a brand new 13.3" macbook. 2x 2GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM, 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, 250GB Serial ATA Drive @ 5400rpm. Also bought a 500GB Time Capsule. Probably went overboard for what I need but I love it. Bit of a pain in the ass not having internet at the RV for transfering data and seting up time capsule. But thats part of the reason I got the laptop so I can go close to the RV Park buildings where they have (wireless) where ever we are. Usually the wireless at these places suck! unless your parked right by the building. Last Oct. I got portable internet from Rogers, but it doesn't work here. I hate Rogers! I have had to phone them every month since I got it to correct my billing, and now it doesn't even work here. We should be here for 3 months.
On another note.
I have my Dr.'s appt in Sept for my reduction. Keep you posted on that. My mammogram was clear.
Dad is doing OK, except he has fallen a couple of times. Has not hurt himself to bad mostly, but the last time he might of cracked a rib. Nothing the Dr. can do, just time to heal. He's feeling better now.
Brad's Birthday on Friday, nothing special planned. Last year was the big party, and it cost a fortune, so this year is low key.
Oh yeah, I'm getting my tongue pierced.
That's it for now.
Miss you all.
