I iz teh lamez
4 Comments Here I go again, another (albeit short) blogging hiatus. I just can’t get it together. I’ve probably just put too much on my plate, with GeekWitch.org and TasPagans.com and such, but I still don’t have a whole lot to talk about in terms of my personal life and my thoughts and stuff.
I’ve kind of come to the point right now where I’m feeling down a lot of the time and feeling very “stuck in a rut”. I don’t know what it is, maybe it’s just not having a job and therefore not feeling like I have any purpose. I should leave that for my spiritual blog (CM) but that’s kind of where I’m at right now, in a nutshell.
If you follow me on Twitter, you’ll know that I haven’t been well lately. In the last 3 weeks, two people in my family (my cousin and my nan) have mentioned my thyroid and how it looks to them like I might have an issue with it. So on Tuesday I went to the doctor to have it checked out. He couldn’t feel anything unusual but he insisted on a blood test and a scan to ensure there was nothing wrong. So they took some blood outta me (and also gave me the first of three cervical cancer prevention injections), and today (Friday) I had the ultrasound on my throat. The guy who did it said he couldn’t see anything unusual, but I will wait for my doctor’s diagnosis on that, for clarification. Part of me is kind of hoping that they find something wrong, because at least then I will have some answers to a lot of the symptoms I am having (inability to lose weight easily, hair loss, lack of sex drive, severe menstrual cramps, etc.) and I would be able to go on meds to help it. If it comes back clear, I’m back to square one without any assistance.
In better news, I bought The Sims 2 Apartment Life expansion pack and have been thoroughly enjoying playing it. I have all the expansions, and am only missing two of the Stuff packs (Ikea and Kitchen/Bathroom) so I’ll get them eventually too. I am looking forward to The Sims 3 coming out in February (although I kind of feel sad about it since The Sims 2 is so awesome and I *just* got this expansion) so we’re going to preorder it at some point soon.
Anyway, I thought I’d just bring you all up to speed on what’s happening with me; still looking for work, and having parents on my case about it, even though I’m trying my best, isn’t really helping me. If they’re so upset about it, maybe they should talk to some of their “connections” that they always talk about and get me a job?!

I’ve never been here before, but found you on lavish! I could have written this post myself for the most part. As for your thyroid, have you gotten results back? If it’s not that, have you looked into a condition called PCOS (polycystic ovarian syndrome). The symptoms you said match some of the symptoms of it. I could have written what you did a few years ago before I got diagnosed. If I had a dollar for every thyroid test I’d been given, I’d be rich! haha. But it’s definitely worth looking into, there’s medicine you can take and things you can do to help if it is PCOS. here and here are two sites about it. Good luck!
And I’m so jealous about the Sims, I eyeball it every time I walk past it..haha
