every time a bell rings an angel gets his wings

it's been a while since i've been on here. it's not like i'm not on the computer every day. i'm just lazy. and i get distracted by the fluffiness of cuteoverload.com. anyway, i went to see dr. denio about my gi-normous knuckles yesterday. he said it was a flare-up of my RA. i have to take a blister pack of prednisone for a few weeks and had to change my methotrexate from pill form to injection form. self injection, that is. it's not that bad. i've given myself shots before. i used to be on enbrel and the methotrexate shots before, it's just i have to overcome that psychological fear of sticking myself with a needle again.

anyway, it's almost thanksgiving. joy. does anyone ever have that perfect holiday season that target and walmart shill on their uber-trendy commercials? i mean, i'm sold on the idea--i've always imagined that one day i'd have this huge brick house full of friends and family with all the trimmings and the food and the gifts and the snow and the laughter and the sense of togetherness. i want the hallmark-norman rockwell-holiday inn (sans black-face!) christmas. i want to find zuzu's petals in my pocket. i want to feel what i feel when i listen to judy garland or nat king cole sing those festive songs. i've never had it...not even when i was little. i don't think it exists, but it's nice to pretend...at least i'm almost done with christmas shopping.
