When you're an adult and you know, then yeah, you just lay it out there.

In other (not nearly as pleasant) news, my mother has taken a turn. She went off chemo about a month ago and today has jaundice. I don't know if that will come and go or if that is the indicator that the liver is going and will just continue to decline. Any medical peeps out there who can explain jaundice, metastases in the liver, etc. would be appreciated.

Seriously.

There's a reason my maiden name is NOWHERE on Facebook.

Add World Ventures - that damn "you should be here" crap! I have a Soror who has been constantly been trying to get me on her "team." Lured me to her apartment with Papa John's for a "business meeting." I knew what the jig was, but the wings werent bad.

She was really upset at me, said I didn't give it a chance. Girl bye.

Ditto for those wraps. Im not wrapping my waist. Im good.

An old friend of mine is very upset because I won't spend a couple of hundred bucks to "help her" by ordering Purium from her.

I just re-read this and am cracking up at how it sounds.

Not that team. Not that kind of "business meeting." Oh man!

When you seriously consider sticking your fingers down your throat JUST so you can legitimately tell your boss that you're throwing up and need to go home...no one should want to run from their boss that much. Is my rotation over yet because I REALLY hate my job. I'm a student therapist. I don't even get a paycheck so "I don't get paid enough for this" doesn't even touch it. I just want to leave for internship and have a job that I actually like.

12 days ago, I had one of the happiest days of my life. How on earth did things get this bad this fast?

British Airways lost our car seat and stroller (we have a travel system stroller). We gate checked it in Barcelona and haven't seen it since. We were going to London to visit a friend and her fiancé for the weekend and do sight seeing. We still have 2 weeks left in Barcelona.... To say the least my husband and I are extremely pissed!

I thought I should bookend my comments about my mother's progression with pancreatic cancer over the last 14 months. She died this morning. Thank you for all of the support you have provided over the last year as I dealt with this.

Sorry for your loss. I'm hugging you from afar.
