Fated Strife

Current Mood: Disappointed & Giddy & Sick & Sleepy

Well its that time of year again. I hope everyone has had a blessed and wonderful Christmas.

Angel and I were able to talk both today and yesterday which was a gift of sorts. He was going to try to call today but never did but he said if he didn’t he would tomorrow or something. Hopefully this will work out for once.

I received the following this Christmas:

1. The gift of grace and love from The Lord
2. Silent Hill: Origins for the PSP from my stepdad
3. Silent Hill: Origins game guide from parents
4. Triforce themed Nintendo DS Lite with Zeruda no Densetsu Mugen no Sunadokei from my grandparents
5. Meade 70AZ-AR refracting telescope from parents
6. Final Fantasy XI - Wings of the Goddess expansion pack for the 360 from parents
7. The Sinusoidal Spaghetti by J.-M. Perelmuter from parents
8. TravelitePack by Joytech from parents

Gifts yet to come:

Cory got me this awesome figure to add to my Final Fantasy Creatures Collection. It’s actually one of the more expensive Master Creatures collection, he got me Bahamut.

Angel is supposed to be getting me something or already has it. No clue what though, excited about that and the fact he might throw those letters he wrote me a few months ago when he ships it.

Overall a good thing of gifts, I was really expecting the Telescope as my grandparents were going to buy it for me but I decided on the DS, so my parents got it instead for me. Really wish Angel was here for Christmas.

Most of all though, this isn’t about the gifts we give to each other, how much we spend. Its about celebrating the birth of our Savior, His life, the teachings He brought us, the death He suffered for all of our sins, His love for us, and the resurrection. This gift of grace and love is the most important for someone to want and to accept. It’s never too soon to accept that gift and accept Jesus Christ as your personal Lord and Savior.

Not much has been going on recently. My mom’s birthday was Monday, she’s 47 now.

I saw my primary doctor Monday as well, he gave me some Vistaril and Triamcinolone lotion for my legs and feet as lately they have been really bad with itching, rashes, etc. My mom also has the skin problem on her legs but is much different than mine.

I finally used the lotion stuff today (can’t use too much of it as I believe it can cause adrenal suppression as other corticosteroids can). The itching has went away quite a bit but it may or may not have been the lotion.

I ended up with this horrible migraine today, it woke me up around 7am and I stayed in bed pretty late but by 3pm it was still around so went to the ED. Some Dilaudid and Phenergan helped it and was also prescribed a few lortab for pain that may be around when the dilaudid wears off. That’s the first time any of the doctors at the ED or urgent care or such has offered anything for home use, and the person I saw today was very nice and understanding about these things. I hope one day I can be migraine free again but I doubt it.

I talked to angel for a few minutes Monday as well but haven’t heard from him the past 2 days, hopefully he’ll be on tomorrow some so we can talk.

I’m getting one of these for Christmas, due to the fact I’m such a big Zelda fan and I missed out on getting the LE gold Triforce GameBoy Advance. I’m curious if anyone has any suggestions on which games to get for the DS? I’m already getting Phantom Hourglass with that DS, I hope to pick up the New Super Mario Bros. game for it as well sometime. Trauma Center is also another game I’m thinking of getting sometime but other than those I have no idea what good games are out, so if you have a suggestion please leave a comment.

House yesterday was interesting. I napped until about 15 minutes into the show but thanks to TiVo I was able to watch it all. I’ll refrain from spoiling the episode but it had an interesting story, the PotW’s case had me confused for the most part. The story line with the new candidates and Wilson and such was also pretty good.
Any comments from readers about the episode (or the season for that matter)?

Its supposed to be cold and snowy tomorrow day for awhile. I’m really hoping it’ll snow a good amount, the weather forecast had it as flurries but now it just shows clouds with some snowflakes.

I can’t think of much else right now, my head is still hurting a bit and I am pretty sleepy now. I did update Cory’s bands site, you can also view previous and upcoming shows now thanks to a nifty WP plugin. I hope he starts using the blog and such soon.

Also, yesterday the rapper Bryan Williams (The Birdman), was arrested here while he was passing through on drug charges. I saw this on the news after House went off, I know people are arrested all the time but this is some big news for the area so I figured I’d share. You can view the original story here, and the follow up here.

I’ve also added a Polls section where you can take various polls and surveys from my site. So be sure to head over there and participate! I’ve included the latest one below.
