It is completely out of season to watch this movie, but I thought it was cute and I liked this song. I’ll ‘splain you later…:

Last night, as I was sitting in my bed before my Mom took my chair to be plugged in, my cheeks felt crazy!!! That was a feeling that I had never experienced before, and it scared me.

When my Mom got to my room from plugging my chair in, I told her about it and she put the cream on my face as if I was wearing Calvin Johnson eye black:

I knew that my Mom would not get that reference so I didn’t even say it and I’ll wait until I speak with Sean because he completely knows that reference!!! We loved watching him every Sunday, and Sean was young enough to watch it WITH me!!!

It really shows my age because I had a hard time finding pictures of him with his eye black on. I remember when that was so new and cutting edge!!! But now he is just a businessman. But that’s how I wore my cream last night because my face felt crazy!

I told my Mom that I may need to change the cream that I am putting on my face because the weather is changing. She told me that Mrs. Hutcherson wears it all year and I told her that my skin is different.

I think that is a statement that my mom really isn’t really prepared to handle just yet. It scares the crap out of me, but it seems to be happening all the time now!!!

This afternoon when she woke me up, she asked me how my face felt. Given the fact that it is daylight savings time, and that makes me feel terrible, I just said, “I’m not okay.” I don’t know if it is just my age or where I’m from but I totally thought of Eminem when I said that and this song:

I reposted yesterday about my doctor telling me that I had a calculus.

That was last year in January. In March, I had urogram (where did she put hot IV fluid in my body to take pictures of my organs) that was insane! After that, it led to me getting a different doctor and I had surgery in August.

Post op told me to make another appointment in six months, hence my February appointment. I have to remember about it because it was so strange and the very first time I ever had an appointment like this! I was a bit scared!

My Mom stayed with me in the entire time and helped the nurses who were not equipped in dealing with such an infirmed person.

Dr. K wanted to see how my calculus was doing. She had blasted it all last August. But my Mom saw a stone. Dr. K was not concerned by it and she told me to make an appointment for six months (which Jason made for me) and based on that one, maybe I will just have to go annually.

I liked the sound of that! I was thinking about it because I know I had shared this song, but I couldn’t find it. I had shared it before after I found out that I had a calculus. I wanted to hear that song so I watched the video. Man, Chris Cornell looks so rough. And it’s kind of haunting that he has committed suicide since this video. Here it is:

Sean told me a while back that he saw a video on TikTok and it had a song playing in the background. He couldn’t understand why that was making. His heart feel funny until he realized that he remembered that song from From sitting in the backseat of my Malibu.

I listened to the Audioslave CD for one summer. Sean was either five or six. I listened to that CD on loop for that entire summer Like a Stone was my favorite song.

Makes me think of that Diet Coke commercial but I don’t drink Diet Coke and I no longer drink pop at all. But I guess its kind of true:
