I think I still have a chiari malformaiton...the films don't look right to me.

sadness- Jane Wyatt let go

LOS ANGELES (AP) - Jane Wyatt, the lovely, serene actress who for six years on "Father Knows Best" was one of TV's favorite moms, has died, said her publicist. She was 96.

She died in her sleep of natural causes. I think that is a nice way to let go.

She was such a great MOM role model. I try to be like Jane was with my cat.

I have an exam tommorow. I have done so little in the way of school this last week that it is hard to study...ok enough blogging...back to the books. this was a study break to read the news and I am being bad blogging.

I am blogging from Dean's alienware computer tonight...nice!

fluid removed and greensboro is sickest in nation

so all the free fluid was removed from my abdomen today. It was 1 and a half pounds of fluid. They are sending it out to cytology. I don't feel so well but at least it is gone now. We had to go to Charlotte to get it done...what a pain

At the eckerd we got the evil pharmacist...the one accross from Brown and Gardner where we ussually go. How do these evil people say in there jobs so long. Dr. Greenes receptionist is also very obnoxious. What happened to customer service?

oh I just read that the City of Greensboro is the sickest city in the nation. NO WONDER.

lindy hop stockholm style: The Battle in Stockholm

this is Finals from the Lindy Hop competition at the Jazz Jam & The Battle in Stockholm on July 30, 2006.

Finalists: Vincenzo Fesi & Isabella Gregoria, Frida Segerdahl & Sakarias Larsson, Hannah Zetterman & Mattias Lundmark, Åsa Palm & Daniel Heedman, Rickard Ekstrand & Rebecka Hallberg

This is what I do when I can't go out dancing.. watch videos.

lindy hop as defined on the web.

so I am finding a lot of people have no idea what lindy hop is here in NC. I couldn't find any definiions of what I really think it is so here are the Definitions of LINDY HOP on the Web:

Named by Ray Bolger, after Colonel Lindbergh's flight across the Atlantic. This Swing had as much "getting into the air" as possible. However, the violently acrobatic style used for exhibitions is not the same as the quietly rhythmic Lindy enjoyed by good dancers on the ballroom floor. The rhythmic patterns takes place over two measures of music. The more acrobatic versions were limited to ballrooms of which the most famous was the New York's Savoy Harlem. ...
www.arthurmurraydayton.com/Dance%20Dictionary.htm

The grandfather of all forms of Swing, named after Charles Lindberg, and originating at the Savoy ballroom in the 1930's as a modified form of Charleston done in dance position. Lindy Hop is currently enjoying a revival with a new generation of swing clubs, musicians, and dancers.

lindy: an energetic American dance that was popular in the 1930s (probably named for the aviator Charles Lindbergh)

Lindy Hop is a street dance that evolved in Harlem, Manhattan, New York in the late 1920s through the early 1940s, that emerged with swing jazz.

cactus juice

so our cactus went from 3 feet hight to 8 feet high since summer. while we were in Fiji for a few weeks my father started to water him....that's when he took off. My father thought that I said to water him 2 times a week and I had said 2 times a month. Anyway, he watered him 2 times a week and so when we got back we decided to keep watering him a lot since he seems to grow more that way. And now at 8' he is about to hit the ceiling of the balcony above us. We give him special vitamins called "cactus juice".

so I have been feeling weird pains in my neck and think it's scaring down weird. I would like an MRI but Dr Pool says there is now need for one now. I wish I knew why though. Not worth a trip in to see him now but if in a few weeks I am still feeling so bad I may have to find out why no mri should be done yet.


Dean and I are looking to move to Raleigh or Chapel Hill. Greensboring still sucks as much as usual and maybe the most pathetic town I have ever been too.

the departed

ok so we went to see "the departed" tonight. It had potential to be the great great movie...partly because I kissed Leonardo D. about 5 years ago at a party in NYC...but mostly because him and Matt Damon did a great job...the problem.....the ending sucked so bad I can't believe it. everyone dies....what am I supposed to do with that? I guess I understand the title now though.

I just ate a pice of Edwards chocolate cream pie. It's the kind of pie you wanna eat by yourself. I made the mistake of eating it in front of Dean and he stole a bite. It goes really well with Homestead Creamery Strawberry Milka...
can't have cornflakes without a whole lotta millllkaaa....remember that KIDS IN THE HALL?
