			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Wow&#8230; I haven&#8217;t blogged in so long I don&#8217;t even know where to begin. So many things have happened and so much has changed that I&#8217;m not sure if I can fit it all into a single post. So I reckon I&#8217;ll just have to pick the most important events/happenings and call it a day.</p>
<p>1) My social anxiety is next to zilch thanks to a change of medication. Pristiq + Propranolol (beta blocker) = no social anxiety, which totally kicks ass because I&#8217;m having a great time living my life for the first time in 26 years.</p>
<p>2) Nanny had a stroke a little over a month ago. She&#8217;s still wheelchair bound but she&#8217;s determined and a fighter so I have all faith that she&#8217;ll recover with time. </p>
<p>So far her recovery has been speedy. She can pick up her left leg, move her left arm a little bit (she still has a long way to go with that) and her speech is near perfect when she has her teeth in.</p>
<p>As for what I&#8217;ve been doing&#8230; random shit. Mostly visiting Nanny, hanging out with friends, sun-bathing and swimming along with lots of job application filling out. </p>
<p>I&#8217;m so tired of seeing those forms but I want a job badly and need one at that but my social anxiety has made it harder to get hired as I&#8217;ve never had a job because of it&#8230; but that won&#8217;t stop me from trying!</p>
<p>Basically I&#8217;m just living my life, having fun and taking care of my Nanny who is THE most important person in my life. She pretty much raised me and she&#8217;s the ONLY one in my family that treats me like a human being instead of a verbal punching bag. I hate seeing her so distraught and&#8230; trapped. I wish that I could take her place but I can&#8217;t and that&#8217;s what kills me the most&#8230; </p>
<p>No matter how much I help and visit I can&#8217;t take away her sadness or fix her situation but I have to remind myself that she&#8217;s a fighter and she WILL pull through this.</p>
<p>So as you can see I&#8217;m still alive. Very much so. I&#8217;ll try to get my postings back on track but I make no guarantees as I never know when I&#8217;ll be on the computer long enough to actually type a post out. But I figured I&#8217;d at least let you know that I&#8217;m alive and well. </p>
<p>I miss you guys and I highly appreciate all of you who still support me. In times like this I can use all the support I can get, so thank you for sticking with me, even if I am a sucky blogger *hugs*</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>After hitting another dent in his love life my oldest brother slammed the question: &#8220;why are all women whores?&#8221; in my direction.</p>
<p>Personally I don&#8217;t believe that all women are whores but it is a fact that nine out of ten women in my area are.</p>
<p>Still that kind of question doesn&#8217;t have an easy answer, I have boobs but I can&#8217;t speak for the entire population so rather than try to give a serious answer I simply replied with:</p>
<p>&#8220;Because our orgasms are better.&#8221;</p>
<p>I meant it to be amusing but after I thought about it it does make a little bit of sense. We can get multiples on a good day and ours last longer so there was more truth to what I said than I realized and I do have to stop and wonder, is that part of the reason some women cheat?</p>
<p>I&#8217;ll never know for a fact why any person would choose to cheat but it does make you wonder.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>For the past few months I&#8217;ve been having major vision problems due to allergies. Not pollen or animal allergies but.. smelly stuff allergies.</p>
<p>I share an apartment with my mother who just doesn&#8217;t seem to understand the concept that I&#8217;m allergic to overly smelly things. Glade plugins and anything vanilla are my two worst allergy causers. Though real vanilla doesn&#8217;t bother me, I can even eat and digest it normally. I just can&#8217;t smell the man-made smelly kind.</p>
<p>So off and on my eyes have been swelled shut, watering, burning, itching, my nose dripping like a faucet or stopped up to the point where I look like I&#8217;m in constant awe of something in order to collect oxygen in my lungs.</p>
<p>I knew this morning when I woke up that she&#8217;d put something new in the apartment as I couldn&#8217;t see anything and focusing was out of the question. Hell, my vision is still impaired at the moment and it&#8217;ll be a few hours before it comes back to me in full swing but at least I&#8217;m not hurting anymore.</p>
<p>I searched the apartment top to bottom to find the smelly implant she&#8217;d left to no avail, thank god she stumbled (not literally) home a little bit ago and I interrogated her forcing her to reveal the plugin hiding spot behind a wing-backed chair in her bedroom.</p>
<p>The label you ask? French vanilla.. my two worst allergy causers rolled into one evil plugin.</p>
<p>I really hope she&#8217;ll figure out she cant keep burning those things around me. It&#8217;s so bad that the contraptions can&#8217;t be anywhere in the apartment, not even in the living room. They straight up fuck me up, for lack of better words and terminology.</p>
<p>Glade &#8211; kiss my ass, you make evil things for mentally unstable people to torture me with *growls*</p>
<p>And yes, my mother is mentally unstable, quite literally but that&#8217;s a story, or should I say novel series, for another day.</p>
<p>For now I&#8217;m just happy to be able to see, let&#8217;s see how long it lasts before she drags something new home this time.</p>
