| Things just keep getting worse.
I had a wisdom teeth consultation a couple of weeks ago and when the surgeon was looking at the x-ray he told me that there was something on it that he wanted me to get checked out. He said he thought it was a cyst and that I should get a CT scan, so he gave me a referral. I ended up having to get a referral from my primary care physician, but I got that taken care of easily. The day after my scan my oral surgeon's assistant called and told me that the lesion was getting bigger and that I needed to get it checked out soon. She also told me that their office doesn't take my medical insurance. I called my insurance company and they gave me the number to another oral surgeon, so I called and made an appointment, but they didn't have anything available until today. The lady I talked to told me that she would also schedule me for surgery in case the surgeon decides to get it out. Also, there isn't an oral surgeon in Austin that takes my insurance, so I had to go to New Braunfels. BUT the damn office decided to call me this morning to tell me that they needed a referral from my primary care physician, so I spent all morning and all afternoon trying to get the referral faxed to the office so I could still see the surgeon. The referral was sent a few minutes before we were supposed to leave, which was good timing, but I was still pissed because of the added unnecessary stress. I had my consult and the surgeon told me that the cyst is too big and too aggressive for outpatient surgery, so he made some calls to some people he knows but they don't take my insurance either. It looks like it's eating away at my jaw. I still need to make some more calls, and if I can't find anyone in San Antonio, then I need to go to Dallas to have my surgery.
I'm pretty freaked out because I've never dealt with anything like this before. Chris has been great, though. He's staying with me until I get everything taken care of and then he's enlisting in the Coast Guard.

| Chris and I have a date in mind for the wedding. We're thinking May 17, 2008, we just have to make sure that those plans are okay with his family. My mom's boss has already began planning everything and is making a wedding binder for me, which is awesome cause it makes all of the stress of planning the wedding easier.

| Yeah, I haven't updated this in a while. Big news: I'm engaged. Chris and I decided that since we're gonna get married that we might as well be engaged now. I've already found the ring I want and we're going to get it tonight. Hopefully the place has my size cause I want it really bad. | | |
| I'm sitting in Chris' room waiting for him to get back from class. On Saturday I bought Chris his first tattoo and I got another one. An eighth note on my ankle. I am so glad the semester is almost over, bit I also don't want it to be over cause then I won't get to see Chris for about a month. I think I'm spending New Years at his house though. This isn't much of an udpate, but nothing really interesting has been going on in the life of me.

| This weekend was so relaxing. I went to San Antonio with Chris and Andy. We stayed at Chris' parents' house and hung out there on Friday. We ended up going swimming later that night and Chris, Andy and Chris' little brother, Joey kept jumping into the pool and that disturbed some wasps so all of us except Andy got stung. I got stung on the neck and Chris and Joey were stung on their palms. Oh man that hurt like a bitch. His mom gave me some Benadryl and some fancy medicine for bee/wasp stings. I started feeling loopy from the Benadryl so I got really giggly. After I took a shower, I ended up passing out while we were watching a movie, so Chris carried me to the room I was sleeping in and then snuck in there with me after his mom went to bed. On Saturday, we just hung around the house for awhile. Then we went out and played with beebee guns and started shooting paintballs at things. Tony picked us up later on that day and we ate and Chris, Andy, Joey and I listened to Tony's band practice. We went to a Hookah bar after that, which was fun cause I had never been to one before. There were a lot of us so we ordered 3 hookahs each with a different flavor of tobacco. Tony dropped Andy, Joey, Chris and I back off at Chris' and we all passed out in Joey's room. Sunday was another lazy day, then Chris' parents got home with rats and mice cause it was feeding day for the snakes. I ran from room to room to watch all of the snakes eat their rats, it was entertaining. Then Liz picked up Andy, Chris and I so we could eat BBQ at her parents' house. Then Liz went to meet some friends so Steve (Liz's boyfriend) took Andy, Chris and I to run some errands. We went to the other Joey's house and played with the beebee guns some more and I got shot in the ass. Then we went to see Jackass 2 and after that and killing time for a few hours Liz drove us home to Austin. I just crashed at the dorm with Chris and Liz stayed in Andy's room cause she was too tired to drive the few miles to her apartment since it was about 5AM when we returned.
