Update with my goings-on

Sorry its been so long since my last post.  I know how much you look forward to reading this. (:
There hasn't been a whole lot going on with me, I have been looking for a job for the better part of a year and still have come up empty-handed.  I hope to start up college again next fall.  I had a "fun and Exciting" (sarcasm intended) journey at the hospital a week before Christmas.  I was eating dinner one night and my esophagus had an allergic reaction with something I was eating and closed itself in and squeezed around the food I had just swallowed.  I could breathe fine but couldn't swallow anything, I went to prompt care the next day, i had to wait several hours to get in, and when I did the doctor sent me up to the ER.  There I had to wait for three or four hours before they decided to give me an endoscopy, to get the food out.  the GI doctor poked a hole into my esophagus with his scope.  (lucky me)  So they transferred me to another hospital about 50 minutes away, because the GI doctor said there were better surgeons at this other hospital, so i was sent there and put in icu for a few days.  Luckily my esophagus healed up by itself and I didn't need surgery. and no more air was leaking into my chest.  I couldnt help but be a little angry toward my original doctor.  But it's all ok now.  I had a decent Christmas, a little out of the ordinary, but I welcome randomness.(usually)  I won't get into specifics though.I'm not really looking forward to Valentine's day, I don't have a reason to.  I am looking foward to April however because my band has a show sometime in mid-april, it is sure to be a blast.  Well that's it for now. Thanks for reading.  I will try to keep up better in the future!!!
