I've been tagged...6 weird things about me!

I've been tagged by Alison to write 6 weird things about myself. I am then supposed to tag 6 other unfortunate souls so that they can write 6 weird things about themselves.

Ok, weird thing #1:

Sometimes music makes me cry and it doesnt need to be a sad song to make my cry. It can be a real swingin' tune or even something like Led Zeppelin. If I just love a song, I sometimes cant help but cry. Most recently, its Ella Fitzgerald doing a live version of Mack the Knife. She forgets the words and makes up her own words, she laughs and is so charming.

#2:
I can't go more than a week without pizza, honestly.

#3:
I won't get a good night's sleep if my sheets and blankets are not sorted out properly. They have to be centered and properly tucked in at the bottom or I just cant get comfortable.

#4:
I love Broadway musicals and I know all the words to most of the songs (including Annie and Jesus Christ Superstar which in case you didnt know, the part of Jesus was sung by Ian Gillan of Deep Purple)

#5:
I have always wanted to be one of the "Pink Ladies" ( and still do)

#6:
The weirdest thing of all: I once turned down the chance to have a drink with Paul Weller.

I tag Sue , Clare , kelly , and Niki I know thats not 6 but I dont know enough bloggers yet!

hi...

sorry to have you worried, i can see that b doesn't really know how to translate a warm, less-serious toned message with typed out words...

i've been having stomach pains on and off for the previous 2 weeks... probably due to the travelling and increased work load, and it's also just plain old news for lynda lye, who has been suffering from gastritis her entire teenage and adult life thus far, and has stubbornly or just cannot be bothered enough to take her meals on time, regularly, who eats waayyy too much when she likes to, and eats waayy too little when she doesn't have the time to, drinks too much coffee and alcohol, loves her green chilli too much........ blah...

the doctor was soooooo close to saying "fuck. you deserved it girl." hell yeah... i was asking for it. there. he said it was a clear-cut case of stress-induced, long-term abuse gastritis thus stomach ulcer.... and gave me a super menacing glare. now, that's what i call a true doctor. one who screws his patients for ending up seeing him, even when i was in tears and curled up like a ball. i like you dr. chong.

i'm still in pain right now, although it's like 1/100th of the termendous pain i experienced last week, when i vomitted countless times, shitted sticky dark stuff...really gory.... i have pretty high pain tolerance, and yet almost died of pain... so much for that... i had a relapse yesterday when i felt better in the morning, proudly proclaimed i was back in business to everyone, ta-da! all gung-ho and went out to the post office, to meet a client, to get some supplies, replied a trillion emails, took some product photos, starting sewing a woody-san.... and even though i had my proper meals and meds.... ugh... pain in the evening... till now.....

no work for me for the rest of the week. ban imposed by my dear family and friends. but does a ban work for me? history shows.... it doesn't, after a short period of time, at least.... i'm suppose to be banned from even being online... apparently, this dear doctor of mine says that the internet causes me stress. ??????? so. i guess i'm violating the ban right now by posting this entry. you'll see how i love violating bans... i've more to post later...

yeah, lynda lye doesn't care much does she... she's so asking for it...

okay, enough of nonsense... time for my yucky meds and millky shitty stuff i have to drink... and maybe some trashy day-time and lamey late-night american tv, which i obviously sorely miss, will help lift my moods. my dear friend nat recorded them for me and labelled it as a stress-reliever. thanks. much. yo.

p.s. thanks for all your super sweet emails, wishes, and concerns...i was pleasantly surprised to receive so many of them, so sorry if i haven't replied.... but please do know i've read them all and i'm really grateful in my heart.... i did receive a deady bunch of flowers on sunday, courtesy of mao who apprently didn't have the common sense to know that i was too much in pain to put them in a vase of water... so they died. pretty much. in a day. thanks babe, pls know i love you, and have fun in istanbul

thanky thanky thanky

to you all for your kind, sweet, nice reviews of lof!!!
dear doctor of mine, how can the internet possibly cause me stress? unless possibly i can't get myself too elated because that will start up my gastric juices too....
