Life updates!
August 18th I went to the doctor, it was my due date and I still wasn't dilated enough to have him. So, he said 'Next week we will induce, but today I want you to go have a sonogram to see how large he is.' So, I went to the hospital and they estimated him to be 9.537 pounds. He said. "Uh, WOW! We're admitting you to induce tomorrow." So, I got to stay there overnight and the next morning they gave me the medicine to bring labor about. I was in labor from 5 a.m to about 7 p.m when finally they decided my little boy was NOT going to turn his head the right way to leave the canal, so instead, they did a c-section and he was born at 7:19 p.m. I was in the hospital for about a week, and then we went home. The next week I was up and going without problem or pain medications, and I got to go to Houston to see fail and what not.
Not long after that, I develop a bump on my elbow. Turns out, it was either a cyst or a staph infection, so, they had to cut it open and out and all that nasty stuff.
Now, not a week later I had to call 911 yesterday because of excruciating pain in my side, worse thanlabor pains, and I had to be rushed to the hospital. I was throwing up every two or so minutes and not knowing why. Turns out I have an 8mm kidney stone stuck in the vas defrans, and so i had to go into surgery this morning. And I have to go back into surgery next week.
...I'd like to point out I've seen enough hospital for awhile now, hopefully I have a bit of reprieve.

Cool stuff has been happenin' lately!
Step mom told me she loved me, that was a spark to the day!
Earning money for Chris's wedding ring.
AND! I did this AWESOME realism drawing today that I am sooo proud of. Chris and me were laying in bed last night and he told me I should try at it. And so I did, and it turned out great >< I'm excited. He'll be so proud of meee.
Other than that. I'm starving and making a frozen dinner. Whoo-hoo! My life has it's moments to shiiine. Even if you think it's boring.

Some wonderful things have happened in the last few days.
First off, I had an amazing weekend. Me and Chris went to the mall and peeked around at engagement rings and ran away from some of the god awful dresses. We got some yarmy pretzels and went hom to watch a movie. Then the next day, after staying up til' nearly 6 o'clock in the morning.. (Won't mention why we were up so late. But omigawd.. )
Anyhoo. Next day! He takes me to Scarborough fair! It was beautiful and sooo much fun just wandering around. Couldn't dream of anywhere else I would rather be. Watched this awesome bird show, and Dr. Kaboom! We nabbed a souvenir for the first time we were there, a big numbered and dated mug. On the way home we nabbed some foodstuffs ('cause 6$ turkey legs isn't acceptable) and watched a movie.
Let's see.. on the way home from foodstuffs we also found another problem. We blew out a tire so we got to ride on a flat to the local grocery store to change it. Took awhile but we managed and got home okay! Sunday morning we hop skipped to Wal-Mart to replace it and another bald tire. 168$ e__e;; Ridiiiculooous. But what can you do =)
So! The last couple of days have been laid back. Watching movies, trying to go to sleep early. Managed to get in bed by ten last night which was odd. Chris tossed and turned every five minutes and I couldn't sleep for shit, either. And then, sometime in the night, he randomly punches me in the boob and laughs. WTF. I called him an ass but he was passed out when he did it. Then it started storming outside, so I was able to kinda fall asleep. Still tired.
All the kiddos are sick this morning, including me. =/ Ugh, my stomach is fried. I hope I don't get their croopy coughs! They sound awful. So, I'mma try and sleep it off.
I heard from my sister this morning, she's due with her 5th boy June 5th. Can you imagine? Five little boys? Urf. But she's alright. I'm due not due til August 18th, but an amazing thing happened last night before bed. I felt the largest kick I've ever felt, and it moved the wall of my uterus and skin this time. It was like a bubble.
I giggled for about five minutes.
Anywaaay! I hope you all are as good as I am. Other than the sick part. Sick! But my spirits can't be stepped on. =)

For once, I want to pop my soon-to-be step-mother up the side of her head.
The electricity got turned off because the bill didn't get paid. Gee, how did that happen? Because Chris wasn't informed about the bill, or when it was due, and so the lights were off. So, Trish has to go pay it. But what the HELL! When did I become the bitching ear?
First off - I don't need the stress. I'm five months pregnant. Stressing out because someone needs someone to yell at isn't good. I don't need to go into premature labor.
Second off - The bills need to go through me or Chris. Not her, because if they go through her we don't hear about them half the time. I need to take over financially. WHY?!
Because the lights DO NOT NEED TO BE TURNING OFF EVERY MONTH BECAUSE SOMEONE FORGOT TO SAY SOMETHING! If this happens next month? Or the fuckin' next? You know what? I will be stuck at home with a huge, 6 or 7 month belly, in Texas. Fucking. Heat. You know what that causes? A) Stress. B) Heat exhaustion or heat stroke. Normally I'd be alright with all this, but I don't want a god damn premie because someone's not acting their age. 'I'm not going to open the bill, I know I can't pay it.' Well maybe someone else can if you HAND IT OVER TO THEM. I don't want her to check the mail anymore!
The worst part is? She's screaming at me because Chris doesn't pay enough. I understand she also needs to vent, but who do I have to vent to? Any why on -earth- would you BITCH AT ME about the man I am in LOVE WITH! I shut my mouth, and let her go on and on and on. But I'm ridiculously offended. I'm going to be his wife here within the month. That means, a united front. That means, together through thick and thin, hell and high water. And if she thinks I'll be siding with her over anything, hell I don't care if SHE IS RIGHT! She takes that up with HIM! I'm not her whipping girl! I don't care if Chris says the sun is green and she says it's yellow, and she's yelling at me because he's wrong. I'll always defend my husband, because that's my place. I'm not her wife.
Anyway. I'm pretty ticked. Very ticked, in fact, but that got me a load off.
Off to cook dinner, have a good night.

I had an interesting evening!
I went out for once, to this place called Roy's. It was an authentic Hawaiian Fusion. I.E kind of American, too. But..I couldn't understand a damn thing on the menu. I felt kinda trashy for the place. Especially since it was 75$ a plate.. e_e;..Let me tell you. I don't think any restaurant is -that- good. Needless to say, not a place I'd want to go back. Though I was very glad I got to go!
That, and. Today is April Fools and I have no idea what kind of joke to play. I'm lost. What the hell should I do? <.< Anyhoo, have a good day guys. =)

Boy, did I come across something weird today.
So! As I said, we're planning to get married. And we've been debating what/where/when.
We're having the reception not this April, but the next, at Scarborough Fair in Dallas Tx. (Like renfair but bigger, and supposedly better.)
And before then, we've decided to go to the Justice of the Peace to get it done! Now. The weird thing is..the requirements are only as followed:
- Birth certificate
- Drivers License
- $41.00
...What the hell!? That's it?! To get MARRIED! Jeez! That's crazy, isn't it? But a hell of a lot cheaper than makin' a big deal out of it, that's for sure. Worse thing is? You can get married ONLINE. I think that's a bit weird..
Anyhow! So, that might be going down very soon! And if it doooes, I'll have a different last naaame. *Glee.*

My family doesn't go out and do anything special on Easter, but Chris and I did set up Easter Baskets on the kitchen table, and ran around outside around 5 or so a.m setting out Easter eggs. We even got to keep a chocolate bunny, since there was only two, and there are three kids. Gotta keep it fair, right?.. >.>;
Well, that was our excuse to eat the bunny.
So! We got our treat for our hard work! If filling eggs with M&M's and Jellybeans counts as such. Overall, it was a good morning that left everyone happy and baring toothaches.

It's been almost a year since my last post! Goodness. e_e;
Well! Things are definitely different! Just like every time I post. ^_^b I'm glad I'm one of those people that rolls with change instead of frantically clings, that's for sure! Well. For starters!
I no longer live in the Houston area. Last September I moved in with my boyfriend (we'd been dating since June) so it was a pretty quick flip-flop but well worth it! We live in a nice comfy house in Garland and I couldn't be happier. Going on 8 months that I've been away from home.
I'm also pregnant with a boy! I have no idea what to name him yet, but I'm working on it. In April I'll be five months along.
Also, I'm wedding planning. It's going to be at Scarborough Fair (Dallas renaissance equivalent) and I don't care how nerdy it is you can't tell me getting married underneath the trees with that beautiful music being played by a live band isn't awesome. =P Anyhoo! If you want to go let me know.
Been gaming it up, lately in our spare time. Mainly WoW, some Guild Wars, roleplaying, drawing a lot lately, and we're getting pretty excited about Age of Conan, another MMORPG.
We've opened up a new channel for RP that's about to be moderated and fixed up all nice like with a couple of buddies. And, we started TTing with a group playing Mutants and Masterminds on Sundays. Go out and spend time in the country with buddies in this nice, big house during the hoidays. Mmm.. what else. We added another member to the family, Pandora! Our ferret. She's a sweetheart. :3
Other than that, I think that's all the updates I got! Not much going on today, going to cook here in an hour or two. =) So! I'll post when I have more interesting things to say, til' then, take care guys! And Happy Easter.

Welp. I've been pretty busy lately.
What eeelse. For awhile I was working two jobs but seeing my two week pay check was a whopping 20 dollars, it was only getting me gas. Now I work 5 days a week as the only cashier at Interfaith of the Woodlands Hand Me Up Shop. It's good money, for my second job. Eight bucks n' hour.
I'm getting another tattoo tomorrow, and then that's that. No more for a long, long time. if at all. Dum-dee-duuum. I've been hanging out at Nexus comics a lot. It doesn't have much, but the people there are SO FUN. I have a blast. We play Heroclix on Tuesdays. Magic is on Fridays' but I just watch on that one :D We're gonna start DnD there soon, too! Few of us want to start a WW TT game which'll be neat.
I saw a really bad wreck yesterday, and I'm SO GLAD I haven't been stupid enough to get myself in a wreck so far. Even though my driving scared Nathaniel..
Anyway. Update on Rebecca's life. Yup. Things are going -well-.

I decide to blab in the blog I made to blab a lot in that I ended up only blabbing in a few times. And sadly enough? I haven't posted all summer. =(
And so, as for that update, yes?
Since my last entry I have:
A) Been in an abusive relationship I abandoned.
B) Passed Junior year with flying colors.
C) Acted on some stray feelings that have sat around a good year, best decision I've ever made.
D) Happier than I've ever been.
Over the summer I've gotten the nerve to pierce my tongue and nose, both granted permission from the elders, which was sorta creepy. Guess they're finally realizing I'm not but two months away from being a legal adult anywhere in the world. :)

There's something wrong when at the end of the day you don't have anything to say to the internet world. I guess that's fine, seeing I usually don't talk about each little detail of the day. Unless it sucks.
Like getting into another fight with my grandpa. Having Christmas lights loosely hung around the top of my room, not touching anything, will cause the house to burn down, thusly. He took my only source of light. What a dick. No lamps, the sockets in my fan all have shorts in them. Stupid.
The con is this weekend, it'll be something to do over nothing, I'm sure. ^_^ I'm sick of having and 89 in English. It's ridiculous.
I went to the Main Event tonight, by myself. Sorta sad, but atleast I got out and did something. A nice change, no people to whine at me for anything. Reguardless..it wasn't a horrible day like the last ones' have been. I've been making it better.

I don't know all the details, I've heard things, BUT I WAS NOT THERE. Thusly, I won't open my mouth and say this and that.
What I do know, is that she treated me like crap growing up, which is fine. The past is the past, that and I never really cared in the first place. Before she dropped out, she started to be nice, loud, but nice. And it was a really good side to see. Reguardless..
I know she will rest in peace, and I give sympathy to anyone who knew her better than I did. She'll be incredibly missed, even by the people she never knew by name.

I got in a fight with my grandpa. Details aren't needed. The fight was bad, as all are, but to an extent where we aren't talking and I'm spending the night at Tommy's house tonight to get away.
It's really disappointing when you have to rely on your boyfriend to take you shopping for school things..your family can't do it for you. He's the only eligible driver around, that can but shouldn't take me. But "It is his job." The fuck it is.
ENGLISH PROJECT~!
It'll be a pair of jeans with patches. The patches will be the poems. Ooh, how clever. In the pockets, will be a crumpled note with the Table of Contents. Reading 'Homework.' In the other pocket'll be a note with a poem. The rest on the jeans. =) Fantastic. I think it'll turn out great.

After 3 years of being journal-less! But when I had one, no one else did, except Nathaniel and Mike, so no one really commented. But now more people I know are here. =) And I was overcome with the urge for a newbie journal. It's colorful. A bright page, I wonder if those brighten days? That'd be nice, oh boy oh boy. I guess this ones' sort of a random BOO kind of starter, so tomorrow'll be..whatever the hell I feel like typing. Yup.
Shiokaze con's this month. I'll be going Friday night and then prolly on Saturday. Woo-woo. Now's about time to finish up that crummy first costume I was throwin' together. I wish I got excited about things a week or two before rather than the night before.
I need to find my fox emo-cons.
