Blowin' in the Wind

Ah, wedding season is upon us. It seems everyone is getting hitched or engaged these days! It's that time of year :) So congratulations to all of you, and I'm so happy for the vast majority of you!!

Let me set the record straight - I am not opposed to marriage. I think it's a wonderful & beautiful thing. And perhaps there will come a day when it's what I want...perhaps. In the meantime, leave me the fuck alone. Do not ask me when Andy & I are going to get married. Gee, I guess we'd have to get engaged first. So maybe once there's a ring on my finger you can ask me that. Until then, fuck off.

I know that none of the people this is directed to will ever read this, and the people who will read it aren't like that, but I just needed to get it out somewhere. I am SO sick of people asking me that. I will not be someone who gets married solely out of the fact that society says it should be the next step in my relationship. I'm happy where I'm at.

ANYWAY.

Today was my colonoscopy. I went & saw Edward Sharpe & the Magnetic Zeroes last night, and then came home & took 18 doses of laxative. I slept for 2 hours & then made Number Twos for about 5. It all went fine, though. I have Irritable Bowel Syndrome (as suspected). I have a new prescription, which is supposed to help with the pain & I have to drink Citrucel every morning. I'm practically 80 with my fiber supplements! Oh well, if it helps! They found 'pseudopolyps', which they took some to biopsy, but he said that they are typical in younger people so should not be an issue. I have a follow up in 4 weeks, and I will keep you posted on any bowel updates. ;)
