Borage

Hey guys. Once again i havent had much to say unless u wanna know about my diet lol. I was telling Jillian about it the other day and she made me feel good cause I told her i'd lost 16 lbs! yay! Well I lost 10 from my tonsills and some before school was out and now me and my family are on the Atkins diet and it's working great! Were kinda getting sick of eggs and salad and sausage and green beans and all but hey i'm losing so i'm gonna keep eating it lol.

Well anyway guess where i get to go today! A family reunion! Yay! (can u feel the sarcasm?). Were going to tunnel hill to one of my mom's aunt's houses i think. I've never met half the people that are gonna be there and i know whats gonna happen. I'm gonna meet someone new or someone i met when i was 3, which doesnt count i know but it does to them, and there gonna go "Oh Cortney your so big now!" and then they'll say a little side comment to my mom or dad and go "I havent seen her since she was this big" (points out a height with their hand). Oh i'm ecstatic lol. But it's good i guess since Christy won't be there. She's my cousin who's insane. She joined the marines and she's 17, thats not that insane part, she was wacky before she left. So she cant harass me. But come to think of it, the only person i'll have to hang out with is Adam! Ahhh!!!!!! But it shouldnt be too bad since he doesnt talk haha. 2 of my second cousins are suppose to be there and one's 19 i think and she's really pretty. She went to GPS. And the other one is 15 i think and her name is Casey. Her aunt told my mom she's really mature, so i might talk to her some. Oh i cant wait to see people i dont know lol. My mom doesnt even know everyone and it's her family! She said there's kids and husbands she hasnt met lol. I dunno, we'll see.

I haven't done much lately. I've been bored as always lol. Oh something fun that happened, that made me feel good lol. Last night when me and my parents were coming home from the track, we were stopped at a red light and I was driving my car with the top down. And I look at the car in front of us and I see this little girl trying to turn around and look at us. And she's struggling and finally she gets turned around enough and she looks like she was 5 or 6 and had red hair and she was pointing and smiling at us and then she would do a shy wave at us and i'd wave back at her and she'd get all giggly lol. And then I saw she had a twin sister! So then she turned around and did the same thing and then all the sudden their mom looks in the rearview mirror and says something to them and they turn around and sit down real quick lol. It was cute lol.

Me and my dad went to get me floor mats for my car today and to Old Navy! Yay! We'll we went to look at floor mats and instead i was looking at all the other car accessories lol. They had some rearview mirror charms that jingled and they had license plates and covers. I saw a really cute one that was pink and it said Princess in aqua blue and it had glitter all over it. I think i might go back and get it and put it on the front of my car. it was cutesy.

And then we went to Old Navy and I went in and i got some blue jean shorts and i got a cute patriotic bag that had stars on it and it was red and white and it was covered in that clear plastic stuff to make it water proof. Well anyway it's got 2 big pockets inside and it's perfect for a make up bag so thats what im gonna use it for lol.

And then we went to Wendy's for lunch. Ok were on the Atkin's diet (if u dont know what that is, it's no carbs). And everything we wanted to eat or anywhere we thought of to go we couldnt get anything lol. But we went there and got a salad lol. Oh we SO wanted some fries and a burger. ahhhh i'm SO hungry right now.

And tomorrow me and my mom are going to get some uniform stuff. Yay.

I was there chauffer for once haha. Hey sorry i can spell alot but i'm not too good on chauffer lol. Later.

Me and my family went to Charrabbas last night. It was ok. My mom had been there before and said it was good. Ok we got there at 5:20 and the line was coming out the door already! There was a 30 minute wait too but thats pretty good considering when we got called for our table the wait was an hour and a half. Well anyway we went in and u dont get regular garlic bread. Its not even garlic bread at all. U get like a loaf of bread and then your waiter brings a little pile of spices. Our dude said it had rosemary and garlic and some other stuff in it too but what they do is you have a bottle of olive oil on the table and they pour that on top and thats your sauce for your bread. I didnt want any b/c i still cant eat! I'm just starting to talk again so last night i was gonna get my mom to order for me, embarrassing i know. Well i got to order my water lol but that came out spitty. For some reason ive got extra spit when i talk lol. So when i said it i had a spit bubble in my throat, appetizing i know. Well i knew i would only eat like 10 bites of whatever i got, so me and my mom split something which was good cause she ordered lol. Well it was pretty good what we got but it started to hurt my throat so i didnt eat much. But my dads garlic mashed potatoes rocked. I loved those. It was ok, they didnt have alot to choose from. I think i like Olive Garden better lol.

My keyboard is poo right now. It wont type some letters i punch so i have to go back and do it again.

Ahhhhh i wanna talk again! I cant talk very well, sneeze, or yawn. The yawning part sucks. It hurts my throat to yawn, so when i make myself try not to it hurts like POO. I havent talked, yawned or sneezed in more than a week. Yall try doing that lol. But i've lost 10 lbs! I think i put that on here earlier, but oh well im happy! I put on some old jeans yesterday and a lot of them fit great. I was excited.

Surgery

Wow im alive. I thought i would inform u all of that since my last entry was only a couple of words. Ahh well i got up at 5:15 and we left and we got to the outpatient surgery place and no one was there. They told us to be there at 6:15 and surgery was at 7:15, so we get there and we cant get in cause everythings locked. But then we see a woman and she opened up for us and she said they dont really start anything till 6:45 so we were like crap! cause we coulda gotten more sleep. Well anyway we sit there for like 5 mins and then im called back and i got to pee in a cup lol that was interesting lemme tell ya lol. And then i went and this woman told me i had to change into a hospital gown and hat! I didnt think i was gonna have to change! Well i couldnt wear my underwear cause it wasnt cotton so i was nakie under my gown that ties in the back, u know the kinds. So i'm laying there and the woman's like are u ready? And i go yeah im just trying to tie the back, and she goes, oh dont worry with that, there gonna take it off anyway, I was like excuse me? I didnt find out anymore about that. Well then i got felt up by that same woman cause she put these wires on me. She put like 2 on my chest and then she moved the gown down and all the sudden i could see my boob and i was like Hey going a little bit too far there lady! And she had to move my boob over cause she couldnt see the skin where she needed to put it! My boobs are too big! So she physically pushed my boob over for me. Much appreciated i know. And then i sit there and then i have to get the IV in my hand. So another woman comes back and she sits there for 5 mins trying to find a vein in my hand. I have solved the problem of why my hands are always cold, i have small veins. She couldnt find one! Well then she goes were gonna have to use the hot towel method, and i was like wha???? She comes back with hot rags and puts on em on my hands and by the time she came back they were cold! But it worked and some veins popped up. So i get my iv, and i had waited there for so long i had to pee. I didnt know why cause i had just peed in that cup and i wasnt allowed to eat before surgery so i didnt know why. So i got to take the little stand with me and hold my gown closed and i wottled over to the potty. And then i got some joy juice, or thats why my dad calls it haha. I got anesthesia sp? and then i went night night lol. I got rolled down to the operating room and i saw bright lights and they told me to scoot over onto the operating table so i did and that was all i remember.

And then i woke up and i started talking like i had never had surgery cause it barely hurt so i was like hey this will fine. Well it wasnt fine 2 hours later. Pain. Well i can eat exactly 1 cup of jello in 30 mins. It takes me that long. Ive eaten jello and soup broth. And i weighed myself today and ive lost 8 and 1/2 lbs in 4 days! Im on a roll! lol sure.

Ahhhh cause i have to be there at 6:15 and have surgery at 7:15. My goodness my dad's friend said his son had it done and he lost 15 pds! All im gonna be eating is ice cream, jello, and soup. Oh u know i cant wait.

I dont really have much to say. I cant think of anything actually. Nothing has happened. I finished one of my summer reading books and i've peed about 20 times in the past 2 days cause ive drank so much water. Interesting huh? hey i need u all to pray for me for tomorrow k? I'd much appreciate it! thanks!

I went today and got some stuff. Me and my mom went to Books A Million and got the 2 books i need for English. I've already got the other 3 cause Adam had to read them. Hey ya know what? There all short too! Like the thickest one is 200 something pages i think and thats not bad either. But anyway I got House On Mango Street and something else, i cant remember lol. But anyway when we were there they had a whole table of lord of the rings stuff which i was magnetized to lol. I went all the way around the table, taking my time to look at everything individually lol. And we paid at the coffee spot there and they had a cinnamon roll bigger than my head and im not kidding. And then we went to Walmart and I got some make up and some other things for Jillian's gift which is complete now! The only problem now is I have to find her to give it to her lol. But anyway we went to a little shop near the mall and i made her something else too, so in all i have her 4 things. Ahhh shes gonna crack up lol. And then we were gonna go to the mall and I wanted to go into Pacific sunwear and look for some cell phone stuff but we didnt go, mom said we could go in a few days. Then we went into El Meson for lunch which was great. It's really good, i recommend it lol. And then we came home and I took a nap. And then it just rained and now the wind is picking up majorly and it looks like it could rain again.

Surf Girls tonight at 10 or 10:30 on MTV! Woo! Watch it!

I get my tonsills out on Thursday, ehh, sounds like fun eh? Well i get to get there at 6:15 and get up at like 5 something! joy! And then i'll get knocked out and be wheeled into recovery for an hour and then i'll be wheeled to the car lol. And then I wont eat anything for a while even though i'll be starving. And then my mom said that one of her friend's son had his out and if u take a little cup of water and drink it every hour of the night then it'll keep ure throat moist where u can eat some the next day. Joy, no sleep either.
