happy $%*#@! new year to me...

for those of you who don't know, when i was 16 i woke up one morning without the use of one side of my face...a lovely predicament known as bell's palsy. typically this type of paralysis is temporary, and usually goes away on its own in a few weeks, or two months at maximum. but then again, i've never been typical. no, mine lasted a little over three months, and of course i didn't just have weakness in the muscle, no, i had full blown out paralysis. i couldn't shut my eye, i couldn't smile on that side, i couldn't use a straw, and i sure as heck couldn't taste on that side. all wonderful attributes of this wonderful palsy.
why am i writing about this? because the world hates me, and likes to play cruel jokes on me.
for the past two days i've had significant pain in and behind my right ear, as well as complete loss of taste on the right side of my toungue. this morning, i awoke to loss of muscle control on the right side of my face. currently it's not too extreme, however, i wouldn't be suprised if it got worse throughout the day, as it did last time.
so, really this post is not asking for pity or your condolences. i'm writing this just so next time you see me, for those of you who read this and might actually see me, you won't be caught off guard. i'm also just blogging about it to bitch really. because sometimes bitching helps. so thanks for listening. later.

Is it ok to point and laugh?

Jeez - at least your ex-fat, ex-hetero, ex-boyfriend could hide his really small dick. Why does God hate you?

Happy new year. Are you going to watch Cena and K-Fed rassle?
