Ever have a Bridget Jones moment?
Yeah, well as neurotic and obnoxious as that character is, I sometimes suspect there's a tiny bit of her in everyone that has a vagina.
So, since my boyfriend, Michael, started Army flight school I've had to nearly physically restrain myself from blurting out: "My boyfriend's a pilot, you know!" on more than one occasion (Like in the second movie/book--there's a book, isn't there?--when she keeps saying "my boyfriend is a Human Rights Lawyer, you know!" with that horrid pinched look on her face. Or maybe that's just Renee Zelweger's face, I dunno.).
What the hell? What kind of vapid, no self-worth having female brags about what her boyfriend does for a living? And why do I feel the need to brag about this job, and not the one that actually paid him well? Sure, it's not weird to be proud of a loved one achieving something as difficult as grasping and applying the concept of helicopter flight. But feeling the need to rub it in is stupid. I'm stupid. Being a Pilot at Ft. Rucker is like being a private on Parris Island. So who even would care?
I didn't watch that movie. I swear. Shut up.

In other ramblings, I'm feeling really, really worn down (again). I was doing so well that I had only one bad day in two weeks. I knew it wouldn't last, but I was actually getting used to feeling good and having some energy. I even went job hunting while in my delusion of wellness.
I haven't even been able to take a shower standing up for the past 4 days. So if anyone calls back, I'm probably gonna have to say "Just kiddin'!"
The douchebag rheumatologist I saw last month refuses to see me before May. He told me to "keep exercising".
Oh! Because I never, ever even thought of that before! Ever. Never. Not once. Nope.
Um, hello Dr? I've been seeing different doctors for the past year and a half because things like exercise and even diet changes haven't made me feel any less fatigued. Or did you think I was lying when I told you that even a six-month stint of regular (even vigorous) exercise had only made things worse?
So now I have to find another doctor. Great, because it's been just super fun so far!
Since I can't seem to keep a written diary of when I feel fatigued and when I feel normal, I'm going to attempt to at least make a note of it when I write about stupid stuff that no one except me and possibly my sister would care about in my Blog. I would try keeping track of what I ate, but it would look like this:
- Ben and Jerry's
- Pizza
- coffee
- whole wheat english muffin
- with nutella
- or cream cheese
- cereal
- diet root beer
- coke zero
- more crap that I can't believe hasn't made me a fatty yet
- some recipe I saw and wanted to try. No, I didn't know it was 800 calories per serving.
Yeah.
I'm going to watch the season finale of Frisky Dingo. Again.

NICE BLOG!! I think blogging about your fatigue level is a great idea -- almost as good as blogging about your junk food intake. Some people might even call that a diet:

In other news...why didn't you tell me that we love all the same movies? I'll hit you up later on AIM (if I can manage to stay awake).
Welcome to Blogger!
My junk food intake is the most awesome thing I've ever written about.
Oh, we may love the same good movies, but do we love the same bad ones?
