New layout (oh no! again) and a quick health check
Saturday January 19, 2008

Oh my, so soon on the heels of the last one… new layout. The new year has been productive for me! I’m going to go through and fix up all of the oustanding/outdated page content/links, and also fix up the missing “stuff” (e.g. the despair.nu link) over the next day or two.

The last layout I loved, but I wanted something a little brighter. Hopefully I’ll be happier with this one. It’s really simple, which is what I like in a website…

I went to the Docs this morning to get my vaccination, get a prescription and chat about my general health and diet.

Well, I got my prescription, chatted generally about my health, decided that the doctor was a bit stupid and decided to put off the talk about diet (will wait for my regular doctor) and got my vaccination and an impromptu blood test.

I finally have the answer to a debate that has been raging for a long time between the 21-25 year old females in the office. The Gardasil vaccination hurts. It feels like having a Tetanus shot, but for longer. Ow.

I’m proud of myself though, because I’m mildly phobic of needles and I managed to sit through two today. I was a bit of a basket case beforehand, but I’m happy now.

Unfortunately the Gardasil vaccination is a course of three shots, so I’m going to need to go back two more times. Sigh.

I’ve also decided I have to loose 5-6 kilos before the wedding. I’m not by any means overweight, but I’m more than what I weighed three years ago and it’s making me feel puffy. Lol. It’s a little superficial I know, but the weight gain isn’t because it’s natural, it’s because I’ve been lazy and eating bad foods.

I’ll wait and see what my blood test says though… I think I’ll be very upset if I’m not healthy all around. Hehe.

    My friend got Gardasil, she was so happy once she got her last shot. I haven’t gotten mine yet, but I’ve gotten a tenanus before. I’ve been lazy for the past few months too… I think it has something to do with it being winter. I’m always more active in the summer.

    I remember getting blood tests. Seeing my blood go up through that tube made me feel kind of sick…

    Ugh, I hate needles as well. I don’t think I could do that.

    I have a large fear of needles too, my last one too felt like the tecnus shot, arm felt sore and heavy for days.

    Wow, I’ve never actually heard of anyone getting Gardasil. I got the tetanus shot 2 years ago and I couldn’t move my arms for a week and I got a high fever the next day.

    Pew! Pew to needles, I can’t stand them. Eeeech…

    It’s a good layout though I think you should center it :) But that’s just me. It’s good that you’re so productive!
