OT: Days of our Lives aka the Beacon's Billboard

Well if djmbandie is like you he could go for a walk, up the beach and down the beach and so on with his blind date, offcourse if his date is really blind that might not be such a good idea.
 
I always seem to get a lower mood around Christmas, I think mostly because it reminds me of how alone I feel in the world. However, it seems to be worse this year and is lingering somewhat... I'm not really sure what is going on, I've considered that it could be a lack of sunlight, but I don't know :/ It normally gets better after Christmas.

Poor sweetie. You are not at all alone in that. Christmas can be very hard even without the relentless commercials showing blindingly happy families who live in a parallel world where things like cars and fast food are reasonable gifts ...

:(
 
I'm not to fond of the holidays either, all the parties you just have to atttend, the pressent you have to look for the whole stressfull going and comming of people and so on.
 
I like it if you look further than the commercial side of it. Although it's probably more because of the cosy feeling inside the house and the (sometimes) wonderful landscapes outside in wintertime on the whole, and because of lots of day off from work, than the actual holiday stuff. Getting gifts and all is definitely stressy. And most of us are always happy when January arrives, and things are back to normal.

I certainly hope you are feeling better by now Kitteh.

That sounds familiar. For me it was the time and place I was in, combined with annual winter depression. With any luck, it will work out the same for you and it gets better as you get older.
 
On a more worrying note, kitties like rugs.

My friend has two cats, and during christmas he dragged down his old rug (which was in the attic) to the living room. As a result, when I visisted him recently I was greeted by two happy cats, one of 'm rolling all over the rug with an expression of sheer bliss on her cute face "Look!!! We've got a rug!!! Isn't it great?!! Yaaayyy!!"
 
Hey, it just struck me that I've kept you all up to date on my blood sugars thing that started last summer, but I haven't updated you in the last couple of months. I totally just realised! My endocrinologist has decided that there are only two explanations left for my weird ass symptoms;

a) I have a tumour on my pancreas. This is the most likely and he predicts it to be the case, so I'm getting an MRI soon (sort of anyway, waiting times are bad, I have my review appointment mid July). If that is the case then it would be an insulinoma, which only has a 1 in 10 chance of being malignant, and only 1 in 10 of the malignant cases have metastasised, so I don't need to panic majorly just yet. Still, stressed I guess haha

b) He has a theory about an undescribed condition that he thinks he has seen in another couple of patients over the years, and if there is no tumour then he thinks I might fit that. Pretty unlikely though.

So, that is my update. Hope everybody is well. I'm not really around too much, but I do float in sometimes! :)
