My fingers and back hurts. I've been stuyding for SO BLOODY LONG that my hand is all cramped from writing and my back is all cramped from sitting semi-hunched over and worst of all... I'm still not done. I did finally finish writing up the cue-cards for my organic chem notes, but I still have to finish studying for math and actually do some math problems and then do some more chem problems, and somewhere in there get both my lab reports done.. Ugh.

I think I might bake something today. Possibly because of all the stuyding I have made myself do this week, I've been having a much larger need for comfort food recently. I've never really felt like this before, where I'll be going along and suddenly have this huge craving for chocolate.. Generally I just eat chocolate because I like it, not because I crave it.

So Hali and I both went for our yearly check-ups yesterday. Hali now has 5 degree scoliosis and I've got planterfasciitus.. again. This time around I get to have some nice custom orthotics made though, so hopefully my feet will stop hurting me. It was actually kind of funny, because I've known that when I stand my arches completely collapse, but my doctor never seemed to notice it until just now. Possibly it's gotten worse, but I don't know how much more collapsed than entirely flat you can get.. Either way, when I stood up so my doctor, the resident and the med student could all see, they all ooohed and ahhed about how very duck-footed I was and then oohed and ahhed at how bad something in the general area of my heels was because of it.

I don't, however, get a nice quick solution for my stupid ribs. Mostly what I have to do is strengthen the muscles in my back in that area so that my ribs can't be pulled out of place as easily. Which means I either get to start going to a gym so I can use the rowing machine... or I can do push-ups. Neither option really appeals to me all that much... I think the real solution for me would be to either not study anymore.... or not go to school... I don't think I'm allowed either of those options though..

I think we need to invest in a humidifier for this house.. I keep getting shocked by everything. And I mean EVERYTHING. The other day I was shocked at least 3 times by a plant... and just now I got a shock from the wall. Not even a part of the wall with anything metal in it.. just the wall. I also get shocked by running water when I wash my hands. I think I'm doomed to die by static electrocution or something...
