Dr. Bundschuh to the rescue
NO MORE VOLLEYBALL for Katie... There is a possibility I may have bursitis of my right shoulder. I have been referred to an Orthopedic for 12/19/09 and I may need cortisone injections.
I also, had a switch in daily medications and I need to take acid reducer, or as I like to call them ACID ROOSA 2 times a day as I think I may have an Ulcer.
So, I see her again on 12/29... I feel like she will be a great PCP.

Monday blahs
Our system at work is all frozen and not working appropriately so today hasn't started out great. I have a flu shot in about 7 minutes and my long awaited PCP appointment at 1:15pm today. I have a laundry list of things to talk to the doctor about. I am kind of psyched.

I could cry right now
I just learned that had I gone to LA to the MOLE REUNION I would have met Neil Patrick Harris!!!!
I want to crawl in a hole and die.
I would have met Doogie, BARNEY STINTSON - wait for it, wait for it... I SUCK!

Am I selfishly motivated?
This year is the 18th year of lend a helping can - for wheb, the radio station I listen to. I was going to donate $5 anyways but this morning whilst in the shower they said if one was to donate between 7am-8:30am they would be registered to win 2 tickets to see NEIL DIAMOND. AND anyone who donates is registered to win a $6,000 hearts a fire Diamond necklace from Jewelry Creations in Dover. So, I donated $10 and I am proud of myself for that but I am concerned that my donation was solely so I could possibly get something out of it.

Speechless
I really don't have much to say today. Work has been crazy hectic as we were all pulled into an office on Monday and advised that accountability wise, if people don't start performing in 60 days certain people won't be here...
I thought about jumping up and starting to sing - HENCE PERFORMING - but I squelched that thought.

Much too young to feel this damn old
Last night was my first time in 5 years to get back on the volleyball court and play. When I moved away from the Concord area, I so missed playing on my league. When I got to Dover, I immediately found myself on a softball team, but something was missing.
When I moved back to the Concord area I was psyched to think I could get back on a volleyball team. The website was provided to me by a friend and I posted a "want ad" asking for me to be picked up for a team in the B league. Here is the definition of B League:
The B league is a Coed volleyball league. Games are once a week, on Tuesday nights. The season typically starts near the end of October and run into April. B league is an intermediate level league. Some of the players are ex-college players, but most learned to play through other leagues and open nights. It's the best league for new players, or players looking to fine tune their skills.
Seeing as I played beach volleyball for years at good ole, now defunct, Kings and Queens Court Vacation Resort and then preceded to play on my High School team for 2 years making Varsity immediately and earning the coveted prize of ROOKIE OF THE YEAR in 1993, I thought this definition of B league explained me well. Might I add, I also went to Bentley Volleyball camp and sent a try out video to KSC's volleyball team so I thought I could hold my own.
I am physically beat up today - I hurt all over - and I did think I would be sore from the physicality it would require. My forearms are slightly bruised from receiving serves. I think for taking a 5 year hiatus that I played very well. I served like an all star, I dug some great hits, I even did some standing spikes, but my team was much more skilled than I expected. I kind of feel like I may have let them down. I realized upon my arrival that when I played years ago, I played on the C league, not the B league... My team, the Fockers, was changing up formations so that this guy could set for us. I understand these formations as I used to be a setter (the one who receives the bump to set someone up for a spike or a kill) but I have never been anything really other than a Setter. I was just supposed to KNOW where they wanted me to go.
All the things that I CAN do in life, MIND READER has never been one of them. So, I played my damnedest. We won 2 out of the 5 matches. It was good exercise, I enjoyed playing but I don't think I enjoyed the team that picked me up. At one point I was yelled at, "KRISTY, MOVE BACK A LITTLE" I turned around confidently and said, "KATIE WILL MOVE BACK, I DON'T KNOW WHO KRISTY IS". SERIOUSLY!
On my way out, I said to the Coach - LET ME KNOW IF YOU WANT ME TO COME BACK NEXT WEEK and no lie, his response was like Eeyore - Your on the team. Like, sorry we are stuck with you... So, I emailed him today saying :
I sincerely hope that you weren't disappointed w/ my ability level last night in playing. I found out, upon arrival, that the league I used to play on was the C league, not the b league. I personally feel that for not playing in 5 years that I did pretty well. But if you feel that you would like to find another female to play who is more skilled, I would understand. I just don't want to bring the team down in anyway.
I kind felt like a fish out of water - and maybe that was because I missed the first game, but I promise I will improve and practice. Just let me know.
Volleyball used to be fun, and I would like for it to continue to be fun. I am paying 60-something bucks to be on this league, shouldn't I enjoy it? However, I am uncertain if I am just being the overly competitive, hard on myself Katie or if it was just a bad thing all around. For example, I was playing back line and I tried to bump the serve to the setter and it went flying in the opposite direction a few too many times - let's say 5-7 times and they changed up the floor strategy so I wouldn't get the serve. Or I was set up for a spike and it went into the net and the coach moaned so loudly that I almost walked out right then and there.
Part of me is saying I have yet to pay for this league, maybe I should just no show and not come back, the other part of me says JUST EFFEN PLAY.
This is the response I got from the coach of the Fockers:
Hi Katie,
we have 4 girls on our team. One didn't show up last night because she was sick and couldn't find a baby sitter. If you ever feel that your out of place and would rather stop playing then that's your call, but I'm not going to kick someone off the team just because their not at the level with the rest of the team. Maybe if it was A league i would but not at B level. We play 5 games a night and with 4 girls that means one girl has to sit out 2 games a night. While we will rotate who that girl is, depending on the team we're playing I might choose you to be that girl if you don't mind. I understand you haven't played in awhile and as the year goes on you'll get better. As long as your having fun that's all that matters.
I really don't know how I feel about this response - he obvious doesn't believe I am at their level but maybe I am over reacting. (BTW, I bolded the part in his email for clarification of what I thought was kind of mean)...
Tell me what you think? He has a good point - as long as I am having fun, that's all that matters. I guess I have to realize if I am really having fun. I should give myself credit where credit is due. I know NO ONE who is playing and put myself out there for a team who needed extra players. That's huge... I just don't know if it is worth it.

Addendum to BIG BOO BOO
FREE AT LAST, FREE AT LAST. All is well - everything is okay - thank you all SOOOOOO much for your positive thoughts, everything is okay!
Three things to RAVE about
Lately I feel all I have been doing is complaining - today I would like to BLATANTLY sing the praises of a few things.
First and foremost, my friend Cory Lee recommended a series of books to me, which I am now on the 3rd in the series (which is being held for me at the Concord Public Library as we speak). It is the Stephanie Plum Series by Janet Evanovich. These are MINDLESS books but fun to read and I am unable to put them down. Stephanie is a girl in her early thirties who decides to become a BOUNTY HUNTER to make money. They are considered mysteries but they are just good, fun books to read. I recommend them. What I also recommend is going to your public library and getting a book out from there. Nothing beats the smell of a library book.
Secondly, I think HEROES is probably the BEST SHOW on television. I know it is very sci-fi, but it is like a huge ONION, with so many different layers that I actually think there was a second onion on the inside hidden somewhere with twice as many layers. I really thought I was figuring it out and understanding and then BAM- something new and exciting ALWAYS HAPPENS. At first I thought we should just KILL THE DAMN CHEERLEADER ALREADY because the reason she can't die is because she wears WICKED tight clothes. But now there is more depth to all of it... I can't wait for next week. Plus, I have a massive crush on Sylar and I totally thought him and Elle were going to pork right there on the screen last night.
And finally - I bought some make up at Walgreen's - I know it was the cheap stuff, Wet'nWild - but it sometimes better to try something out cheap and if you like it, you know Lancome probably has the good stuff. Well, I found this sparkly eyeliner and mascara and it is my new favorite thing and when I purchased it, it was buy one get one free. NOTHING BEATS A BOGO. It is called I-Sparkle and if you like sparkly eyeliner, you gotta give it a shot - and it looks AWESOME when you line the top lid too!
So, I now recommend you try these things and let me know, or better yet - fill me in on three of your FAVORITE things and I will check them out - I totally accept ALL referrals.

Big Boo Boo
So, a while back I made an error in judgement - we all have those, right? So, in doing so I devised a plan to fix this error. I did my best to dig myself out of this hole that this error caused. In doing so, other things fell by the wayside and I needed to pick up some slack.
Some time has passed and this error in judgement came to a head today. This error led me to, what I believe, is to develop an ulcer, and be unable to sleep well at night. When this came to a head this morning and I finally explained what happened to the powers that be, I felt relief to finally get this monkey off my back.
Nonetheless, I sit here awaiting my fate. I accept the consequences. I have created a well thought out plan (thought out meaning that every night that I am awake due to the pain in my gut or my nerves) to remedy this error. This is effective Friday.
Let's hope that my plan and my being an awesome person enables me to continue the path that I am on. If not, then I am unsure how to move forward. Please send me positive thoughts. Obviously I don't wish to go into detail regarding this, but at least I am sharing some of which I have gone through in the last few months. Please don't ask me what happened, as I will not share, just aid me in getting through this.

Role Models
I saw ROLE MODELS last night and i think I laughed the whole time. It is HILLARIOUSLY FUNNY. No lie! Paul Rudd is so dry and just constantly funny and Sean William Scott is HANDSOME and just funny - the stuff that comes out of their mouths. This is definitely not a family movie as the LANGUAGE is horrific and there is nudity - but GO SEE IT and laugh your bum off.Thursday, November 13, 2008
Friend or Foe?
I am recently finding myself reflecting on what a friend actually is. I think intrinsically we all know what a friend means to each one of us as an individual. What I am trying to figure out is what being a friend is to someone else.
Per Dictionary.com:
Friend
1.a person attached to another by feelings of affection or personal regard.
2.a person who gives assistance; patron; supporter: friends of the Boston Symphony.
3.a person who is on good terms with another; a person who is not hostile: Who goes there? Friend or foe?
4.a member of the same nation, party, etc.
5.(initial capital letter) a member of the Religious Society of Friends; a Quaker.
Okay- this definition may be help me on my quest to enlightenment. I am not doubting the level of friendship of current friends in my life. I have great friends and I love each and everyone of them dearly. What I am doubting is when someone is your friend and then you doubt his/her intentions.
Does a friend NEVER ask you any personal questions? Or when that person does, is it, "WHAT CRAWLED UP YOUR ASS AND DIED?"
Does a friend always have to be sarcastic to the point where you don't know if he/she is being serious and then says, "I WAS JUST KIDDING, JESUS CHRIST!"
Does a friend tell you to FUCK OFF (and not as a joke)?
I don't think these examples equate a friend. I know my friends ask me about my day, miss me when I am not around, have concern about me if they haven't heard from me, do not curse the ground I walk on, use ugly/evil sarcasm...
I find my research on this to be exhilarating because I am learning that my definition of Friend may differ from others. This does not should like friendship, it sounds like it is TOXIC.
I just found this definition for friend:
A person whom one knows, likes, and trusts.
I think that is very important. Yes I know this person, I don't think I like this person nor do I trust this person at all...
Interestingly enough A friend is a lover, literally. The relationship between Latin amīcus "friend" and amō "I love" is clear, as is the relationship between Greek philos "friend" and phileō "I love." In English, though, we have to go back a millennium before we see the verb related to friend. At that time, frēond, the Old English word for "friend," was simply the present participle of the verb frēon, "to love." The Germanic root behind this verb is *frī-, which meant "to like, love, be friendly to." Closely linked to these concepts is that of "peace," and in fact Germanic made a noun from this root, *frithu-, meaning exactly that. Ultimately descended from this noun are the personal names Frederick, "peaceful ruler," and Siegfried, "victory peace." The root also shows up in the name of the Germanic deity Frigg, the goddess of love, who lives on today in the word Friday, "day of Frigg," from an ancient translation of Latin Veneris diēs, "day of Venus."
Let's look at what defines this person, who isn't a friend or maybe is a toxic acquaintance. Toxic isn't the right word because by definition it means:
Capable of causing injury or death, especially by chemical means; poisonous.
So, assist me in obtaining the appropriate definition for this type of friend because right now the ONLY word that comes to mind is ASSHOLE!

Dead Buddy
So, I went to Pet Smart last night and got DUNKIN D. NUTZ, my new fish and he was belly up this morning. I flushed him to the big fish bowl in the sky then realized maybe I shouldn't have done that if I want to get another fish from Pet Co. I think I will just bring my receipt and the empty plastic thing and see if they will give me one more fish.
If anything happens to Dunkin D. Nutz the 2nd, then I am done w/ fish.

Hey buddy!!!!!
So, I finally think I have my apartment all together. Cyn and I FINALLY got the shelf put together which aids me in getting rid of all of the boxes in my living room and entry way. I think I need a friend. It is rather lonely at my house. My fish died about a month ago - and I miss Amaretto greatly.
I think it is time to get a new fish. I am ready for that. I am think it would be so wonderful to have a new fish...

Curses, Foiled again...
I came up, once again with a great blog this morning and it is TOTALLY GONE... Once I remember what it was,I will let you know.

Open book
I must be so much of an open book that no one has questions for me. That's cool. I thought people might want to know what it is like to be me, but I guess they get it.
Well. That's alright. No worries. I will say that I went to the movies on Sunday. I saw Pride and Glory per the request of one of my friends at work. I liked it - it was very good.
I am not a big fan of Colin Farrell, and this movie continued that lack of liking, because he was a jerky in this movie. What amazes me is how he can just "loose" his accent and speak like he is from this country and I can't even do a Spanish accent.
However, I love EDWARD NORTON and he continues to be an awesome actor in this movie. I don't think this is a movie that needs to be seen on the big screen but I think you should check it out and we should discuss.
Thursday I am hoping to go and see ROLE MODELS. The Morning Buzz said this morning that it is not only a funny movie but has a good theme. I CAN'T WAIT. I was going to watch it Sunday but I was helping out my friend at the theatre - WHERE I APPLIED FOR A JOB. I know, I already have a full time job but this place is in walking distance of my apartment and I am there whenever my friend works, so why not get paid for it.

My 100th post - I am one crazy mother plucker
I got new tweezers and I went crazy with them Friday night. Seriously - I am surprised I even have eye brows left.
What is the blogger protocol for one's 100th post - PLEASE ADVISE ALL KNOWING BLOGGERS!
Okay - so I was advised that I am supposed to ask for any questions - of anyone who reads my blog and I will answer them in my next blog - SO, ASK AWAY. My life is an open book anyway.
I have received some questions:
1. Can you juggle? I can juggle guys - I did that once in college but I haven't since then... I can't literally juggle though
2. If you saw that a rude waitperson dropped part of their tip would you give it to them? Yes - and then after the fact I would be mad at myself for not keeping it
3. Favorite cartoon from the 80's? Inspector Gadget
4. Would you ever want to be President? Yes - but I think my sexual escapades would come back to haunt me
5. Would you dye your hair black for the hell of it? NO
6. When are you going to love yourself as much as I do? Probably never. I have too many flaws and feel like damaged goods
7.If you were a food item typically served at a BBQ what would you be? Relish
8.Do you like the smell of gasoline? I did when I was younger, now I do not
9.Ever had sex in public? Yes
10. Could you shoot a deer if you were starving or stick to plants and berries? No, I couldn't shoot a deer
11. If you got to choose to be the lead singer of a popular 80's hair band, which would it be? Hmmmmmm. I can't sing but I guess if it was an 80's hair band that doesn't matter - so it would be CINDERELLA
12. Do you think Michael Jackson was guilty? Who am I to know, I wasn't there.
13.What is your favorite memory from The Mole? The gladiator game and when I let Anderson Cooper use some of my hand lotion, he told me he could just crawl up inside the bottle and take a nap, that is how good it smells.
14. Would you rather swim with sharks or be surrounded by poisonous snakes? Neither - but I guess Snakes.
15.what is your dream car? color and all... Black old school Jeep Grand Wagoneer with the optional wood sign panelling

2. If you saw that a rude waitperson dropped part of their tip would you give it to them? Yes - and then after the fact I would be mad at myself for not keeping it
3. Favorite cartoon from the 80's? Inspector Gadget
4. Would you ever want to be President? Yes - but I think my sexual escapades would come back to haunt me
5. Would you dye your hair black for the hell of it? NO
6. When are you going to love yourself as much as I do? Probably never. I have too many flaws and feel like damaged goods
7.If you were a food item typically served at a BBQ what would you be? Relish
8.Do you like the smell of gasoline? I did when I was younger, now I do not
9.Ever had sex in public? Yes
10. Could you shoot a deer if you were starving or stick to plants and berries? No, I couldn't shoot a deer
11. If you got to choose to be the lead singer of a popular 80's hair band, which would it be? Hmmmmmm. I can't sing but I guess if it was an 80's hair band that doesn't matter - so it would be CINDERELLA
12. Do you think Michael Jackson was guilty? Who am I to know, I wasn't there.
13.What is your favorite memory from The Mole? The gladiator game and when I let Anderson Cooper use some of my hand lotion, he told me he could just crawl up inside the bottle and take a nap, that is how good it smells.
14. Would you rather swim with sharks or be surrounded by poisonous snakes? Neither - but I guess Snakes.
15.what is your dream car? color and all... Black old school Jeep Grand Wagoneer with the optional wood sign panelling

Body of Lies - what do you think?
I went to the theatre last night and watched Body of Lies last night - it was a long movie and a little confusing at first - but it was quite good. I don't know much about what is really going on in the middle east and even after watching this movie, I still don't but it is QUITE interesting.Also, Leonardo DiCaprio is rather AMAZING in this movie... If you have 2 hours (or so) and you want a movie that really intrigues you, give it a go - and then we can discuss.
Sunday I most likely will see ROLE MODELS - I will keep you posted.
Also, a colleague just told me that she saw Pride and Glory, which is also playing at the theatre so I may do another double feature.

When the going gets tough - CRAP OUT
I still don't feel well today - too bad that my PCP visit isn't scheduled til 11/24 - which happens to be the same day I get my flu shot. My stomach hurts and now my chest is tight and i have a cough - and to top it all off, when you get one of those nubbins on your tongue - I have one of those on the side of my tongue that keeps hitting my tooth.
Enough complaining- I just entered myself in a contest on the radio - I don't really care for the prize but I knew the answer to the question, so it was worth a shot - it is an all expense paid trip to L.A. to meet Motley Crue - but the question was who is Nikki Six's new girlfriend - OF COURSE I KNOW THAT - I dressed up as her for Halloween last year. So, I gave it a shot.
NKOTB is Saturday at Mohegan Sun - I want to go SO BAD. I talked to my brother about tickets and my friend Jocelyn is going - but I don't think I have anyone to go with me. BUMMER, huh?

Oh where has LIMA BEAN
I was out sick the last few days from work, feeling crapulous as ever... None the less, I must say that I HATE NAIR. I used SENSITIVE SKIN FACIAL NAIR before a wedding on Saturday and it burned my lip so bad that by Monday morning I was covered in scabs. If you look at my friend Jocelyn's website, she has a picture of me from that day and you can see where my lip is swollen.
Also, on the way back from CT for the wedding, something happened to one of my tires so I had to get NEW TIRES and put them on the car. Luckily, my new adopted family - officially my name is Mary-Elizabeth K.F. Mills *the F is for my adoptive family* gave me a set of winter tires used once and they are officially on the PT as we speak. They did tell me I needed a new battery, but that will be acquired once I pay for my LIBRARY BOOK TICKET. I will say that VIP had the lowest price for putting on tires, just in case you were worried.
Well, I am back to work today - with something that looks like herpes on my lip from NAIR and brand new tires - IT WAS BUSINESS PROFESSIONAL TODAY AND NO ONE TOLD ME. OOPS. What a great day.
Today is a great day to be an AMERICAN!
