FINALLY!! I am so excited!

So after 6 long years of waiting on a list.. and 3 years of carrying around a pager HOPING it will go off.

It did.

At 3am the other night.

One of my dearest friends in the world is finally getting his new liver!! I am SO EXCITED FOR HIM!

I was able to talk to him before surgery and he is in good spirits. He has a generic liver disorder that his own antibodies reject his own liver. He has known since birth that it may become an issue and the last 6 years it has... This picture of us was taken 6 years ago... (and no he was not a big drinker due to the issues)

This one 2 years ago. Its amazing what a failing liver will do to you. In this picture he was REALLY sick. Losing almost 80 pounds (looks like I gained it..lol) and at this point because his liver is not functioning well all his other organs were failing as well...


Because the last 6 months he has been in really good health the Dr are VERY excited for this procedure and said it could not have been a better time for it.

And ITS A MATCH!!!

If y'all can keep him in your thoughts and prayers for me I would really appreciate it!!!

A NEW LIVER YAY!!!

And also my public service announcement PLEASE fill out your donor cards and carry them with you. If you need more information or have questions click here! Also please discuss your wishes with your family! Its so important!!

I am so thankful for the person, or the family that made the decision to donate. It is such an amazing gift to donate. I ask that you keep them in your prayers as well.

For what it is worth.

I am a donor. I put a lot of thought into it and thought "Well I can not take it with me, if my last "act" is to save another life (or a couple of lives) I am happy with that"

Please think and consider it.

7 pounds baby!! And a rant

Yeah I lost it!

I wish it was more but its a start. 1 month 7 pounds at this rate I will be 90 before I am at my goal weight...lol

On a side note, I am so disappointed in friends right now.

I had something planned. Something big, and I asked for the support of people I "thought" were friends.

Friend 1 (who I asked 3 weeks ago to attend) I can't I have to work.

Me- Well its 3 weeks away, on a Wednesday evening I am SURE you can get it covered.

Friend 1 - I can't I work.

So umm yeah.

Friend 2 YES I am coming I would be happy to be there.

Me YAY!

Friend 2 (texts me this morning after avoiding 4 messages about the event) I just got a HUGE tax bill for my car I can't come.

Me -Serious? What does a tax bill for your car have to do with supporting me this evening, if you did not want to go that is all that you had to say. We are all adults here and I totally understand but there is no reason to avoid me....

Friend 2- No response.

Frustrated yes I am. But I will get over it. The thing that hurts is if either of these "friends" asked me to be there for them I would be in a heart beat. For instance, this past weekend it was friend #1 birthday bash. I attended BOTH evenings events and so did the husband. Which was HUGE for him. And she can not even attend one thing for me for an hour?

Does this happen to anyone else? Or just me?

I hate to be negative Nancy but in my experience it seems the more I put myself out there the more I care about people and let them in, the more I am disappointed?

Should I be upset?

I had a dream the other night about a dear friend of mine.

I had flown out for her wedding in Canada in August last year.

Well in the dream she was pregnant. And as soon as I woke up I emailed her to tell her I was thinking about her and to tell her about my dream.

Well she is pregnant. 4 months. And I had no idea.

I am hurt.

I know we are busy, and maybe have not chatted in a while but from the way I look at it, 4 months and no email?

Should I be upset? I am just really bummed she did not bother to tell me before now...

I mean I AM SO EXCITED for her and I cried when I heard but I just feel a little cheated.

Am I over reacting?

So boring!

So it turns out when I had my template done previously there "could have been code" which linked to something that is no longer there?

Make sense? Nope not to me either, just that WHATEVER happened I no longer have a cute blog... So I am shopping around. I am also working on my "Shoe blog" which I am VERY excited about, when the new digs are open I will have y'all come by and throw up at how many pairs of shoes I have.

In other news. I AM PISSED at a girlfriend of mine right now and I just can not let it go. Ok give me your opinions.

We went out to the bar, there were 3 of us, We drank had a good time and agreed that we would take a cab home because it was OBVIOUS none of us were going to be in the condition to drive. Anyways, night goes on, dancing, drinking and then BITCH LEFT US AT THE BAR!!! The 3rd girl that went totally uped without saying anything to anyone and left.

In all my years of parting I HAVE NEVER left a friend at the bar. 1. Without saying something 2. Without making sure all parties had a SAFE way home 3. SHE WAS WAY TO DRUNK TO DRIVE but did it anyways. She had all of 2nd girls house keys, money ect in her purse so not only did she SHAFT at the bar we had to go to her house to get 2nd girls stuff.
If this was the first time this happened I would not have such a big issue, but this time was HUGE, 1. She drove drunk. Like REALLY drunk. 2. This is not the first time. 3. The bar is the size of my bathroom and SHE NEVER came to find us on the dance floor. 4. She never called to say she left. 5. She could have been drugged and dragged off but because this was not the first time I "knew" she just left.

I am so pissed! It just really bugs me because I am the type of person and if you are my friend you KNOW that I would sit outside that bar until all the lights were out and the bar staff was LEAVING before I left without EVERYONE I came with..... Also the first (and second) time this happened I MADE SURE to express my concerns with my friend about how angry I was. I mean the first time SHE LEFT ME ALONE!!! BY MY FUCKING SELF in a bar, in a strange town with no one else in the place that I knew. Second time she left for a boy but I knew people there.
And then this time. And I know I am quick to forgive but not this time.

Oh and I changed my Facebook status to Random is PISSED!!!
And now hers says Girl 3 is feeling bad...i was a bad friend last night...

I am so upset and disappointed that I can not even see straight
