I think I�m dying. All right. So I�m not. But my chest hurts a lot. I did an Internet search and came up with a disease name, but I�m pretty sure it�s just idiopathic, as I don�t feel any infection action going on right now. I�ve had this on and off for a long time. I was pretty sure when I was younger than I was having a heart attack because of the pain, but I don�t think I ever said anything to my parents. This girl at school had something with the same symptoms. Since her doctor did nothing for her after running a bunch of tests and she apparently made it, I just kept my trap shut and tried not to laugh at too much or exert myself for an entire summer. Back a couple years ago, I finally took myself to the doctor since I had primo insurance and a nice hippie doc I enjoyed. I got a shot to test if it was a muscle problem. Nope. I got x-rays to see if it was a lung problem. Nope. With no other ideas, he stuck me in physical therapy hoping that something there would throw the kink out. It went away on its own a couple weeks later. I�ve found if I wrap myself in a heating pad set on high and hug my pillow tightly, all is fine. Right now I�m wearing one of those snazzy PMS stick-on heating pads (which, IMO, should be the invention of the year) on the side of my ribs. Isn�t pleurisy something that old people who live on farms and have access to only the town doc get? This just doesn�t sound like something healthy 20-somethings get. I don�t want to go to the doctor. Argh. In spirit of doctors, here�s a short list of other things I don�t like:
All right. That was just a quick list. I�ll come up with more on a day I�m feeling especially grumpy. In other news, I�m pretty sure that MSN is scanning my hotmail and putting up ads to appeal directly to me. Originally I had banner ads asking, �Which is Jennifer Aniston?� and flashing the pretty mugs of all three female Friends stars. I could have won $50 by picking the right one, but I always resisted that crap. However, after scanning my email for months, yesterday I got a new ad: Fucking MSN email-scanning bastards. I finally took the 3.2 minutes out of my day to set up my new laptop. Dell has this sparkly walk-through wizard to set up users and all network configurations. When I was asked to name ad describe my computer for network recognition, I couldn�t help but be super-cheesy. If you live somewhere near me and happen across my soon-to-be-set-up wireless network, please don�t hack into the computer named ShinyBlingShiny and described as Joanna�s Super Fantastic Brand-Spankin�-New Computer. Thank you, and have a good day.�
