He has been busy with school, health and problems with his PC. I text him last night and he text me back today around 7pm.

Also, don"t forget he lives in a town about 10 minutes or so away from me. I don"t know his address, but, there's only tens of thousands of houses there!  I'd find him eventually for you guys!  Or I'd just sit at the transplant center clinic and wait.  He'd show up eventually I hope. :) You never know.  Maybe seeing me all the time would make the transplant center get me on the list quicker!  :P

Well as Sluff stated, that is pretty much what is going on besides new meds, trips to the ER and just not feeling myself. But we did not get flooded even though we were close, less than a half mile away from over flowing river. Computer on the other hand, what a pain in the butt! To stop pc from crashing I had to uninstall printer, so when I need to print, I have to install the software, align the printer and other printing software that I may use and the uninstall it so my laptop does not crash.

Go back to Chicago for another doc visit Oct 6 about blood clot and 27 to see  what will be done about my knee or knees now that right one is giving more problems.

Just got back fully online tonight. After repairing laptop by repairing Windows from CD, I couldn't get fully online. I could sign in and use Instant Messenger, but couldn't access emails, or any webpages. Took it to Best Buy, but they wanted $170 and 7 to 10 days to possibly fix it. Told them no and I'll try to fix it. He gave me a suggestion to what to look for and how to possibly fix it, which turned out to be the wrong way. With his suggestion, I started to relook at what I previously had done, removed some Windows Updates, Internet Explorer completely, and installed Internet Explorer 6. Updated again, did some test and finally got into websites. Just installed printer again and waiting to see if system crashes again and gives me printer error message. If that happens, I'm going to Wal-Mart and buying a shotgun to blow the printer away. Now I have to cram for a quiz on Monday, then hurry my butt out of class to get  to a doctors appointment in Chicago that they want me 20 min early to. That's not going to happen with the way the train schedule is to Chicago. Weeks like this I wish  I had a couple beers! Just hope no more meds are prescribed Monday. Wish I was going to Vegas! I "Need to Get Away"

Repairing computers is a job I do not want. Once I start I do not want to stop, but nor do I want to spend hours sitting there, it is a frustrating process.

School is going, one class is more frustrating than the other because I don't like how the prosthetic is turning out so far. Instructor says not to worry, it's our 1st one, but I want mine to lok as best as possible. Orthotics class is going better though till w will have o sew. No idea how to sew. I can staple it, duct it, or glue it, but sewing is something I have no idea how to do especially with leather.

Nope, haven't been to any balls games. We do take breaks from cass to check on scores and someone atleast get's text message updates throughout class.

As for doctor visit, new drug prescribed for pain, more test ordered (x-ray, ultrasound, labs, and mri), If new meds runs into problems, then I will have to go to a pain clinic. Doc also said it doesn't look good at having knee surgery in December with what is going on, but will have to wait and see what knee surgeon says at the end of the month. But right knee is getting worse and back is having the same pain again, hence another x-ray. Suppose to contact my transplant doctors about having the feeling of a hypoglycemic attack, however it only happened once and I didn' have my glucose meter with while I was inside Best Buy. So without something to show, it isn't worth mentioning to th transplant clinic in my opinion. The clinic always wants something.
