Honey, now if I'm honest...
 
Why can't I make up my mind?

distraction
La di da da... here's a random post to distract you from the fact that I made a ridiculous fool out of myself in the last one! Thanks to everyone who corrected my spelling and/or general stupidity. Now lets all put this from out minds and pretend it never happened.

One of my room mates has been working full time for a year now - it's been great knowing that at any given point in the day I'll be alone in the house to do my own thing. If it weren't for the constant mess my roommates leave I could almost pretend I lived alone!! But now, said room mate is going back to uni this year. Which means she's converting to part time work. Which means she'll be around the house heaps. Don't get me wrong, I love her - we get along smashingly - but I always feel unsettled when all three of us are home. I feel like I don't have space or freedom! Not to mention the fact that both our computers are in the same room, and I can't write/read blogs when she's in the room (it's one of my things) AND she hates the noise my computer makes (??) so whenever I leave the study she turns it off!! It's such a bitch! I might only be leaving for half an hour, and when I come back anything that I was in the middle of is gone. And it'll be twice as bad now that she'll be home all the time. Maybe I should try and squeeze my computer into my room. Not that there's anywhere enough room - I live in a shoebox as it is.

I have a suspicion I might have PCOS... I have to do a little more research, but I was talking to a friend about my problems, and she suggested it might be that. She's got PCOS herself. I'm going to the doctor on Monday, but it will be mucho dollars and multiple visits to different specialists to make a diagnosis. The upside is it tends to be controlled once you lose weight... more motivation to get my arse into gear! But I could still be totally off the mark... I'll have to wait and see

    I couldn't share a computer room with someone, I hate using computers when there are other people around. I couldn't write blogs around someone else as well, so I get where you are coming from.

    What days are you on campus? We should study, or not (maybe just eat good stuff?)together sometime :)

    My friend A also has PCOS, she reckons I have it as well but I am much to lazy (terrified) to go get all the lady stuff sorted out, so I'll just suck it up. Let me knwo how it all goes for you, I might get inspired to go and getit all checked out.

    I'm so glad I have a laptop - though I don't mind typing with anyone else in the room, I could always up and away with it.

    Do you mind me asking the symptoms of POCS? I thought I might have it for a while, but that thought dissapeared somewhere (in the midst of my hypochondria!).

    I grew up with a ton of people around me all the time (11 siblings counting steps, but not all lived with me at the same time, I think no more than 5... lost track sometimes, and I was the oldest of the lot :) so being crowded, even on the computer doesn't bug me... much.

    eurgh, PCOS. Apparently it goes undiagnosed in a lot of women, so good on you for getting it sorted while you're still young.

    I couldn't blog around other people either, I completely understand!

    No specialists needed for PCOS until you're ready to have kidlets darlin :o) I got a diagnosis, medication and diet plan with two GP visits, one five-minute hospital visit (ultrasound), one blood sample and one session with a dietitian :o)

    It's a yukky condition but you'll feel so much better if you start treating it... so good on you for being proactive!

    Fingers crossed it's a negative though, for your sake! *huggles* I'm here for you if you ever want to vent or ask questions :o)

    Lots of love
    xoxo

    I had no idea what this PCOS thing was so I googled it... doesn't sound like much fun! I hope you don't have it. But then again sometimes it's better to be able to give a name to your pain!! And get some decent treatment happening... good luck!!
