Day before vaca fun

[cabenson]

What a fabulous freaking day! It is dreary, and hazy here-probably gonna storm like crazy and I don't care :) As of 2:30 pm today, I have four days off. Four FUN-Filled days off, not four sick/appointment filled/hospital trip days off. The first "vacation" in over 6 months. Can ya tell I'm a little excited?

Also, I got my labs back yesterday and I am finally doing better! Anemia is resolved, thyroid under control and Vitamin D is up (still not where we want it, but significantly increased). The Nexium has finally kicked in and the severe reflux/heartburn is diminishing. My breathing is better. I am starting to actually feel like...doing things again. This is so huge, since we have been dealing with this for over a year now.

25 year class reunion coming up. We had a blast at the last one, and I have reconnected with a lot of classmates via Teh Facebook. Looking forward to this one and hoping I can drop a few pounds before mid-August.

And then October...NYC.Cannot wait! Thought I was going by myself, but it looks as though Mrs. CB is gonna crash my bachelor weekend for at least one night. Elderly fun with friends, BPD meetup (I hope), DRINKS!!!!!, food, and hanging with my buddy, theholyinnocent and her librarian.

Okay, enough dreaming, back to saving teh babies and teh childrens...

Have a good day!

Yay for you having an actual fun-filled, not sick-enforced, vacation! w00t for your good bloodwork results! Yippee-skippy for the reunion (I'm supposed to have one of those, too, this summer, but it ain't 25...dammit!) And finally...Hot damn for October and the missus coming along! I can't wait!!!!!

It was a blast reading about your 20th. I went to my 10th and had some of the same sort of experiences. It was not a shock that I was queer to them, even my ex-boyfriend. We had a few laughs about that. In fact, he went in order to see me, without his wife. Our time together made all kind of sense to him after that evening. Most of the night was spent with people that I never hung out with and I had a blast with them. All were very cool about my life. One divorced guy said,"Hey, if anyone can find love that lasts and counts in this life, I say, that is the biggest blessing in the world." Out of the mouths of roughnecks!
Have fun with the classmates.

Enjoy your long weekend!

Your recap of your last class reunion cracked me up. I have always rejected the idea of going to one of those things, but you are making me rethink my decision... Hm.

I have actually wondered if class reunions will continue to exist with the new social networking generation, where everyone just stays friends on Facebook forever. There isn't the same curiosity making the idea of traveling a great distance to see which asshole football player lost all his hair seem satisfying. I even saw someone on my Facebook organizing their own mini-reunion, so why would anyone go to the official one?
