Sugar & Spice

Thank God my sister is recovering good from the procedure.  Now we have to wait for the results which will be here in a couple of days.  Hopefully everything is going to be just fine.

Last night I was watching TV with my 2 sisters and there was an Elton John concert on.  I haven’t listen to Elton John in years.  I remember when I was a kid my parents used to listed a lot to Elton John so we grew up listening to him and eventually fell in love his music.  Boy it made my night when he sang “I guess that’s why the call it the blues”.  It just took me back in the days when there were no worries and we would sang to Elton John all weekend long.

In case you don’t know it, here’s the lyrics.

ENJOY!!!

I Guess Thats Why They Call It The Blues
Elton John

Don’t wish it away
Don’t look at it like its forever
Between you and me I could honestly say
That things can only get better

And while I’m away
Dust out the demons inside
And it wont be long before you and me run
To the place in our hearts where we hide

And I guess that’s why they call it the blues
Time on my hands could be time spent with you
Laughing like children, living like lovers
Rolling like thunder under the covers
And I guess that’s why they call it the blues

Just stare into space
Picture my face in your hands
Live for each second without hesitation
And never forget I’m your man

Wait on me girl
Cry in the night if it helps
But more than ever I simply love you
More than I love life itself

It’s been kind of rough lately.

My sister (she’s 21) is getting a brain biopsy tomorrow. Long story.
Apparently she’s was misdiagnosed 5 years ago and now the Doctors are trying to find out what it is that she has. I know this surgery is minimal invasive and I’m sure she will be fine. It’s just hard.

…and Medschool is not helping at all.

It’s been only two weeks of class and i feel drained.

…obviously their children don’t know how to do it!

And that’s all I’m saying.
This stupid Milhouse look alike governor that we have in Puerto Rico. My God!!!!

This morning after I wrote my latest post on stalkers I went to class. In the middle of the class my phone rang (yes I forgot to put in on vibration) and when I checked it was weirdy pants!! He left me a voice message that I would LOVE for all of you to hear. Too bad it’s in Spanish and I don’t really know how to get it off my phone and upload it here. Anyways, it’s something like this…

“I know I said I was not going to call you again but… but…
I can’t concentrate, I can’t study, I can’t workout…I’m screwed.
Whenever I do things right everything turns out wrong.
Whenever I do things wrong it all turns out right.
I DON’T UNDERSTAND SHIT GODDAMMIT!!!!!
FUCK!!! I don’t know why am still calling you!! I get so pissed off!!
Man, WHATS WRONG WITH YOU?!?!?!!?
Are you blind???
Don’t you see that I love you!
That I would get you the moon if you ask for it.
I’d give anything for you!!!
Then women say that men are assholes but LOOK AT ME!!!!
LOOK HOW STUPID I AM!!!!
Asking for another opportunity.
And you wont even answer the phone!!!
Anyways, you must be in class.
I saw your car in the parking lot… ”
(he’s not in medschool, what was he doing there)
“Please… just call me back whenever you get this.
We need to talk. I’m really sorry if what I did freaked you out but that’s who I am. I do things without thinking about the consequences and I cannot change myself.
I don’t wanna hurt you J. I just want to be close J.
Just call me I…..”

Apparently it got cut off.
I didn’t call and I am not going to call.
I really liked him…

I don’t know why I only attract weirdos.

First it was the one that was obsessed with the idea of phone sex. Why phone sex if we can do the real thing? It’s not like we live in different countries. He never wasted an opportunity to bring the subject to the conversation. Needless to say, I never did the phone OR the real thing.

Then it was the one that bought personal info under my name on the internet. Not kidding. Also he got my voicemail code and email password; listened to all of my messages and read all of my emails.
C R E E P Y !!!

Then… recently it’s been the one that can’t stay two minutes away from me. Calling, leaving messages, emails, texts; kind of exhausting. Needing to know what am I doing every second. This same guy also showed up in the hospital where I worked at this summer in an internship just to say hi (even knowing that i wasn’t allowed to get visits!). Oh and this very same guy also showed up where I live asking in the security booth for my house. Security people called my house to ask for permission to let him in… Sorry but I had to say NO!! After this we had a long talk were he accused me of being a bad person and having a cold heart. He’s not calling anymore.

So where are the cool, nice, fun to be with, NOT stalker/weirdo guys??? Maybe it’s the amount of sun and rain we get in this island that turns them into strange creatures. If anyone knows please let me know.

I went to the book store get some of the books that I need. Only 6 books were available and I paid (well, have to pay) a grand total of $1,117.00 for those 6 books ONLY!!! Last year I spent around $1,500.00 in books but apparently this year is going to be way more. Jesus Christ!!!

And I’m not counting workbooks just text books. Plus, its very hard to find second hand books.

So today today was first day. Not cool. It was hell…
My class schedule sucks, no parking available, had to leave my car like a mile away then when I got out it was raining. Ugh!!! At least I had a little umbrella with me which didn’t help much but it was something.

The only thing i dislike about living in the Caribbean is the non stop rain. All year long rain rain rain. Don’t get me wrong, I like the rain but sometimes I’d like a little break. Specially in the afternoons when I’m tired and I just want to get home. You know???

So let’s see what happens tomorrow.

Psycho Stalker has not called or text or emailed me anymore. Long story. Will tell in another post. I really liked him; why did he turned into a weirdo stalker?? Makes me sad. I should have notice the signals, oh well…

My mother turns 50 next week. We are planning a big surprise party for her. I still don’t know what to get her. Any ideas??? Please submit. Thank you!!!

It was 1:15am and what seemed like a great night with friends at a local bar suddenly was interrupted by a weird pain.

I got out of my car and opened the front door as I could.  I couldn’t even talk or stand still.  I ran into the bathroom and took off everything but my underwear.  My shoes, jeans, shirt even the bathroom rug flew to the hall.  The nausea was awful and the abdominal pain was just unbearable.  For a moment I thought my parents were going to think I was drunk but there was absolutely no way on earth they could think that… I was completely sober.  I walked as I could to their room and woke them up.

Try to throw up; lay down; have some pepto; massage the area….

“I can’t think of anything else baby” my dad said.

Apparently I was the only one who knew what to do, you know -since I was the only one feeling the pain-, so I told them to PLEASE take me to the hospital because the pain was just @#$&(#$#(&.

After IVs, blood tests, questioning for the 100th time if there was the possibility of pregnancy, x rays, throwing up, morphine, 4 check ups, more blood tests, more throwing up, a sonogram, speculating about the possibility of appendicitis and 19 hours of pain, cold and hunger someone was illuminated with divine light and glorified words…

“take your clothes off and put on these, you’re going into the OR now“

Thank You Lord Baby Jesus!!!

Between sedatives, pain and sleepiness I changed into the surgery attire.  Two or Three times the nurse came up to me… Miss we need you to sign this paper where it says -bla bla bla bla yadda yadda yadda- I don’t care, I can’t hear anything, there is my signature if its to sell my soul to the devil I don’t fuckin care as long as you get me out of this pain!!!!!

A couple of hours later I woke up to the voice of a male nurse.

“How do you feel honey?”
ME - “Ehhh??????????”
“Want more morphine???”
ME - “yeesssss pleaseee”

… and like that 5 years ago on a day like today I got rid of the little piece of flesh that has absolutely no use but to make us twist of pain.

I gotta give my props to Facebook.  With just a simple question like “What’s on your mind?” they have given the world an inspiration to question their existence, give some meaning to the lifes and even write their most intimate and passionate thoughts…

Because… let me tell you something, it’s not easy to answer a question like “What’s on your mind?”.  Some of us take it so seriously that if we cannot picture our essence in a simple sentence at the time we just don’t write anything… ANYTHING!!!

So this morning I woke up full of inspiration and when I realized I couldn’t picture it on a Facebook status I just decided to write a blog with some randoms status of my friends.  Enjoy!!!

And yes… the names were changed.

Jane “and you know what… I faked EVERY orgasm”

Jess “It’s Something Unpredictable, But In The End It’s Right. I Hope U Had The Time Of Your Life. Fuck It, I Don’t Want U Back!”

Marc “pain is inevitable, suffering is optional, I choose LOVE”

Nan “One door closes, another one opens.  So tear down down the wall and rebuild a new.”

Mer “the line was actually supposed to be ” Frankly my dear, I couldn’t care less” It’s just that Clark Gable had Tourett’s”

Jill “loving life”

Alexa “It’s so hard to be me”

Tav “work?? what for?? ah to pay bills! I almost forgot.”

Pan “fucking mother fucking stupid jetblue”

Kris “i’m turning into EMO”

Tam “little girls cry, big girls say FUCK YOU”

Jose “my friends got a girlfriend man I HATE that BITCH”
