On Wednesday night, my friend Tiffanie and I went to see Lady Gaga at Joe Louis Arena in Detroit. It was phenomenal. AMAZING!

I am so excited! In just 2 hours I am leaving the house to go and see New Moon! I can’t wait! The movie starts at 12:30, but we have to leave early to go line up, or there won’t be any seats left. Yesterday, my mom and I tried to go to Petsmart, which is located in the same HUGE plaza as the movie theatre, and we could not find parking. The entire lot was full of cars going to the movies. I am betting that most of them were there to see New Moon.
After the movie, Vlad and I are heading over to Michigan to go to my grandma’s to pick up my fertility monitor. I had it delivered there to avoid the ridiculously high delivery and duty charges I would have had to pay if I had it delivered to my place in Canada. I am excited to see it, even though I won’t be able to use it for another week or so, and am hoping that I won’t have to use it at all. I just don’t think it is in the cards for us this month. Le sigh. I also got a ClearBlue Fertility monitor through an eBay mistake. I don’t want to talk about it. I am however, excited to have both. We are also going to do some shopping afterward. Should be a fun day!

Last night, my friend Chris and I went to a Chevelle concert! They were playing in the student centre of the University where I work. On my way into work I heard this advertised on the radio and I was like “Oh my God!”. Chevelle is one of the bands on my list of concerts that I wanted to see, so I had to go. It was a good show. Chevelle put on a great show! My only complaint is that the acoustics in the centre were horrible. Now, I REALLY want to see them again, but at a better venue. I will have pictures up as soon as I find my camera battery charger.
I can’t wait for this weekend. This last two weeks of work have been very busy and extremely exhausting. I am so tired.

I am so excited! I pre-ordered this!!! I have been waiting for this movie since 2007. All the reviews say that this will be THE Halloween movie, that it’s one of the best, but for some strange reason, it was never released in theatres. It was delayed for two years, and now finally will be released on DVD and BluRay on October 6th. Here is the summary as written by Warner Bros.:
It is said that Halloween is the night when the dead rise to walk among us and other unspeakable things roam free. The rituals of All Hallows Eve were devised to protect us from their evil mischief, and one small town is about to be taught a terrifying lesson that some traditions are best not forgotten. Nothing is what it seems when a suburban couple learns the dangers of blowing out a Jack-o-Lantern before midnight; four women cross paths with a costumed stalker at a local festival; a group of pranksters goes too far and discovers the horrifying truth buried in a local legend; and a cantankerous old hermit is visited by a strange trick-or-treater with a few bones to pick. Costumes and candy, ghouls and goblins, monsters and mayhem… the tricks and treats of Halloween turn deadly as strange creatures of every variety-human and otherwise-try to survive the scariest night of the year.
I am sooo excited to see this movie! I am always looking for movies with anything to do with Halloween in them, and this one is ALL about Halloween! Here’s a peek. Enjoy!

I am sad to say that there will not be a May baby joining us next year. I thought we did everything right. I am so bummed about this and am really beginning to worry about maybe having fertility issues. For now I am hoping for a June baby. This month, we are going to try the “Sperm Meets Egg” plan. Hopefully, this works out for us. The plan can be found here. I am willing to try anything to get us a baby as soon as possible. It’s probably better that I ended up not being preggo this month anyway. Here’s why…
The foot pain that was has having only intensified to the most horrible, indescribable pain you can imagine. By Friday, I was ready to hack my own foot off just to alleviate the pain. The Tylenol I was taking was not touching this devil pain that I was experiencing. So, I caved and took Advil, even though I may have been pregnant. I know, I know, I am already a horrible mother to my unborn children. I promised myself I would only take one dose of Advil, but one dose turned into every 4 hours…on the dot. I eventually couldn’t stand it anymore and went to the doctor. He then proceeded to give me an X-ray; another bad mommy move. The doctor said it would be fine, but the X-ray tech ended up scaring the shit out of me. She looked at me and said “Did you tell the doctor that you may be pregnant?” “And he still sent you for an X-ray?” She made me sign a waiver that I knew that I may be pregnant, and that she would double shield me. Oh, I should add that at that point, it was way too early for me to test, so there was no way for me to tell if I was or wasn’t “with child”. Anyway, there were no broken bones in my foot. The symptoms I was having made the doctor believe that I was suffering from gout. Yes…gout. A disease that affects mostly men, and women after menopause. It very rarely affects women my age. Also, I have no family history of it and do not indulge in foods high in purines. I am now waiting for the blood test results to see if I indeed do have gout.
So now, after reading all of the information that the internet has to offer on the subject of gout, I am convinced I am suffering from one of the following ailments: Renal Failure, Leukemia, or early menopause, just a few of the many possible causes of gout. I will just have to wait to see if it is actually gout. Anyway, whatever it was, I would not wish it on my worst enemy. It was the worst pain I have ever felt in my life. It felt like this:
Like Satan himself was gnawing at my foot, but 1,000,000 times worse. Unbelievable.
On a totally unrelated note, Michelle Duggar is announced to the world that she pregnant with her 19th child. She is 42 years old and got pregnant “by surprise”. Her last baby is merely 8 months old and the woman is already incubating another one. I am so jealous. Anna, her daughter in-law, is due to deliver Jim Bob and Michelle’s first grandchild in little more than a month. How is this woman getting pregnant so easily? Can you pass some of your magic fertile Myrtle dust my way Michelle? How many kids will they end up with? My money is on 20. I just pray that Michelle gives birth to a healthy child. At 42 years of age, she is extremely high risk for genetic defects. Those are some old eggs! Ugh…the obsession continues.
