Sick, Bored, Broke, Heath, Mountains, Nov 2008

Am I ever going to get well? This has been going on for over 1 month now. One day I wake up and I am fine, the next day I cannot even make it 1/2 way through my shower without needing my inhaler, let alone think of leaving the apt. Not being able to breathe sucks, but the worst part is I have cabin fever and the only thing I seem to be able to do on a consistent basis is worry about funds as I am Broke Bitch Mountain.

Speaking of Broke and Mountain, I am still real sad about Heath Ledger's passing. You know the media and people of the famous world seem to have already pegged it as a suicide, as I guess that would be 'typical' behavior of the like. That is so unfair. I mean the guy said in an interview with the New York Times 2 weeks ago he was having problems sleeping and Ambien was not working that well. Hell, if he is anything like me if it doesn't work and you need sleep desperately enough, you may just pop a few more. I think that's what happened. Bless his heart. He is from Perth and that is my roomie's home town.

Speaking of mountains, again, my friend is in Bulgaria at a place he bought in the mountains. I am so excited for him! It sounds lovely and I looked up some info on the village it is in and it is seems really cool. It used to be a part of the Ottoman Empire. It's all Eastern Europeany, but has a lot of Mediterranean influence as it is near Greece and Turkey. I've never been skiing. It seems like it would be way fun, but I would probably be like Bridget Jones on the slopes. But making an ass of myself has never stopped me from doing anything, so I am game.

I am voting for Hillary in November. I don't get too involved in politics unless asked, and you can think however you want to. That is the beauty of this country is supposedly we have a choice and you can vote the way you want to whether it matters or not. But I am going to say this and I mean it - if there is another Republican in the White House after this term, I am leaving the country. I just have not had good luck in my life time with them. I just can't relate. And that's all I have to say about that.

Before I jet off to a new found nation, Laurie and I have been talking about my upcoming birthday in November - y'all get ready for a unique experience!
