Nightmares
With the exception of last night, I have had an extremely intense nightmare every night this week. I'm talking demons one night, a guy trying to stab me to death the next, etc. I'm not sure what's going on, but I'm pretty sure I would be content with not having another one ever again.
It's a possibility that my newly started Chrone's disease medication is giving me this side effect...I will have to read more into this and see if that's a possibility. I sure hope that's not the case considering I have to take this medicine the rest of my life. I would prefer not to have bad dreams for that duration.
On a side note, I would like to express my extreme joy that the new season of House will be starting on Monday. Hugh Laurie is my number one, much too old for me, boyfriend. So hands off ladies.

News
So...some of you know that for about a year now I have been dealing with some interesting stomach issues. I have brushed it off as nothing for a long time, but I finally recently went and had some tests done.
Well...test came back positive for Crohn's Disease. In some ways I am scared, but in other ways I am relieved to have an answer to what has been going on. For those of you who don't know what it is, here is a link that gives you some good information:

I am going to have to make some dramatic lifelong changes to my diet as well as be on a few different kind of medication. The good thing is, I should really start feeling like myself again.

According to Facebook Survey, I am Getting Married October 3rd, 2010
Facebook seems to think that I am getting married October 3, 2010. I took the incredibly reliable, "What day will you get married" quiz on facebook this morning. I'm pretty sure they got the date pegged.
I can't help but notice the huge rise of weddings this summer among my friends. I have literally been invited to about 6 weddings and have attended 3 of them. Something in the drinking water?
I have also had the awkward experience of running into friends who have gotten married this summer who I did not get a wedding invite from. Now...as for me, I am totally ok with situations like this. When it comes to weddings, sometimes people want a smaller setting and can only invite a particular group of people, or sometimes they have a very specific group of people in mind that they want to attend. Everyone has their own way they want to do their wedding and who they want to invite. I can totally understand this as I will probably end up having a smaller wedding when I get married and will only invite a very small group of people. I am always super supportive and excited for them, whether I attend or not. BUT. What I think is absolutely hilarious is when said friends act completely awkward around you from that point on, or beeline for the other end of the room when they see you coming. What, do you think I am going to say, "Hey, nice to see you. Why didn't I get an invite to your wedding?" I ran into a very similar situation recently and it just seems so silly to me. I don't know if I have given the impression that I am the kind of person to be offended or hurt by something like that, but c'mon people! I am nothing but happy and excited for all of my newly married friends and want to just be able to give you a big hug and congratulate you! Let me!
It's times like these in adulthood when I feel like I'm back in elementary school.
All of these weddings have gotten me thinking about my sisters and which one will get married first. I predict it will be Megan. I am going to be an emotional mess when they all walk down the aisle! I am so proud of them and the beautiful women they have all turned out to be. :)
Anyway, just some random thoughts for the day.

So I have this amazing stepdad...and he's an artist
I couldn't resist the opportunity to share with you some of my stepdad's most recent paintings. He has switched his focus to abstract art, which I must say, is amazing. I would love to just put his paintings in every room of my house. Take a look at some of his most recent work...(and yes...he sells them, so if some of you are interested, let me know!).

Wow...looks like I am not doing so good at keeping up at this blog thing!
Things have been going pretty well. I moved into my own place at the end of August. It's a small little apartment, but works perfectly for me. I am enjoying the quiet and just having my own space! I have had roommates for 7 years and prior to that I lived with my family, so this is a first for me. It's been great! Here are a few pictures of the new place.
Last weekend my mom, stepdad and two youngest sisters came to visit me. We had a great time. Part of our journies included Garden of the Gods, Stick Horses in Pants Comedy Show, the Broadmoor and Woodland Park. It was great being able to have a little family time. If only I could get them all to move out here! It was definitely interesting trying to cram everyone into my little one bedroom apartment, but we made it work! And for your extended viewing pleasure, here are more pictures from the family visit.
That's a little bit of the latest. More to come. Hopefully I will start getting a little better about this blogging thing.

Hollow
I miss my family more then ever right now. Really feeling the pangs of not having a family of my own too.
Wonder if it will ever happen or if I'm just one of those 'it's not meant to be' people.
I'm ready to be in my own place.
I'm ready to start feeling better.
Nice blog, huh? Sometimes it just is what it is.
