Busy with Pain

Here lately I haven't blogged much. I've been busy with my ethics in psychology class. Instructor must not like the letter A. He's an asshole.

I've been really stressed out too. I had my disability hearing last week. It went very well and my legal assistant thinks I won my case. I have so many medical issues I'm coping with.

I found out recently that I have something wrong with the nerve that runs from my lower back down my right leg. Its not called sciatica. I also have calcifications in my pelvis.

So I have a great pain management doctor. He's giving me Tramadol but it doesn't help much. The pain in my right hip becomes excruciating and it affects my ability to walk :( . That sucks monkey balls. I wish I could be pain free for just one day.

Its so frustrating. Sometimes I cry because I know I'll never get better.  Its very depressing. I sometimes talk to my aunt and my dad about how I'm feeling. I don't complain too much because I already feel like I'm becoming a burden to my family, especially my children. I need so much help with house cleaning and grocery shopping.

I hate to even think what I will be like 10 years from now when I will be almost 50. Will I be in a wheelchair? My pain management doctor wants to test me for MS. I have diabetic neuropathy but my neurological pain is behaving like MS. I am always tired and have moderate to severe fatigue.

Anyways. I just hope I can get better pain meds when I go to pain management this month.

Voting Day!!!

Sorry everyone but I'm releasing my Presidential choice. This is because I'm tired of people telling I should or shouldn't vote for my candidate. Everyone has their opinions and just sometimes people should keep them to themselves. We should be happy that we love in a great democratic country where we have voting rights!! I fell blessed to live in the United States! ❤

So Your Life Sucks?

I'm fucking SICK of posts all over Facebook about how people's lives suck! You don't know what sucks is!! Here's a sucky fucking life....

1. BOTH of my parents are dead.
2. I was physically abused for 9 years and can't sleep. Mentally abused for about 12.
3. I have diabetes.
4. I have diabetic neuropathy.
5. I have diabetic kidney disease.
6. I have to eat vegan for medical reasons.
7. I was badly sick and in severe pain for 5-6 weeks because of my gallbladder.
8. I had my gallbladder removed now my digestive system acts up.
9. My 13 year old daughter is lactose intolerant and might have Celiac disease. She has to eat a lactose free AND gluten free diet. Shit man try grocery shopping for that shit!
10. I jacked my toe up severely. Might need surgery on a tendon if it doesn't heal.
11. I have lesions on my liver that have to be addressed! So I might end up on more meds and need a liver biopsy.

Now you tell me just how bad your life really fucking sucks! Unless you have a death to face or a serious disease, you can fix your sucky ass life and go to Hell!

Rock of Ages Movie Review

This is a must see for all fans of the 1987 hair bands! The movie is set in L. A. 1987. Great acting and actors. The soundtrack is fantastic. Tom Cruise can actually sing! I was very surprised at his ability to sing Def Leopard's "Pour Some Sugar on Me." With an all star cast with Tom Cruise, Alec Baldwin, Julianne Hough, Russell Brand, Catherine Zeta-Jones, and Diego Boneta, there's plenty of laughter and great singing/music abound!

Battleship Movie Review

Finally watched Battleship. I don't know why the critics have to give every scifi movie a bad rap. I thought the movie was fun and engaging. I do wish Liam Neeson would have had a bigger role. Taylor Kitch was pretty good. Loved seeing the vets with disabilities doing their physical therapy! To see those men without legs run on prosthetics brought tears my eyes.

The aliens were pretty cool and you get to see quite a few times. Amazing special effects and graphics. Loved the game of Battleship played on the ocean! This is one I will be adding to my collection.

Overlook the critics ratings for this one.

The Walking Dead

While down from gallbladder surgery, I got addicted to the Walking Dead! I am not normally a zombie fan, I am a vampire kind of girl, this is different. The acting is amazing and the visuals are pretty intense. I watched all 19 episodes of season 1 &2 in just 2 1/2 days! I am now obsessed.

I finished both seasons just in time to see the premier of season 3! Man was it sickening!! Complete gorefest with lots of zombie killing! Maybe more than all of season 2 combined xD Carl is becoming a man so fast! I will not post any spoilers on here as some of my friends have not seen the season 3 premier. So if you have questions you will have to email me, send a private message, or message me on Facebook, or even a direct message on Twitter.

Season 3 is off to a great start! I have also started to read the comics xD. I am only on issue 2 but I am sure I will have read them all within a few weeks. If you are interested in digital copies, there is a Walking Dead comic app available through iTunes that is fantastic! Or if you are on a Kindle Fire, you can download the comics app for them. If you have them on your computer and wish to read them on a Kindle Fire, there is an app available through the Amazon App Store that is $2.99. I bought the app and its worth it! It is called Comicat. Reading them on my Kindle is a breeze. I just put it in landscape mode and read away! If you are using the Walking Dead comic app on your iPhone or iPod then its a frame by frame view instead of the entire page.

Happy viewing and happy reading!! xD

Apple iOS 6

So I upgraded my 4th generation iPod touch to the new iOS software. While yes I love it, I also think it can be a pain. The app store quite often closes when I try to download an app or search for one. One of the games that I was playing no longer works on the new operating system. I have not checked out the maps but from I hear Apple Maps sucks. I say just get a damn Garmin or Tom Tom shit! That is what a GPS is for. Besides you can get a Garmin in Walmart for $89 plus tax with lifetime maps. I will be getting that SOON. Cheaper to buy a new one than upgrading the maps on mine.

Anyways, back to iOS 6. I really like the new feature that I can now share photos directly to Facebook and Twitter. So much easier! You can now also create photo albums on your iPod or iPhone which makes sorting my Instagram and wallpapers easy. With the iPod touch you can now send messages to iPhone users and share pictures. However, very rarely do my pictures send without an error. I have given up on sending pics to my daughter's iPod and my friends iPhone! Hopefully the bugs will be taken care of with the next update. Every day I have new app updates so the apps are coming up to speed for the iPhone 5 and the new iOS 6 operating system. One thing you will notice that goes missing when you upgrade to iOS 6 is that your YouTube will be POOF, no longer there! Don't sweat it! The app has been redone and is fantastic! I love the new YouTube app.

I can NOT speak for iPhone users. Only iPod touch. I have seen a television commercial out with a new 5th generation iPod touch. Looks pretty sleek and amazing but as far as I am concerned, that might be the only difference, is that it comes in colors now like the Nano. I am in NO rush to hurry and get an iPod 5. I paid $300 for the one I have now and its less than a year old. No need for a new one just yet. Maybe in a year when the kinks are out.
