Well, just to start, if you’ll take a look up top, I made a new header tonight. I’d appreciate your comments on it!
Ok, on to the good (well, better. A new header /is/ pretty good news) news. This past Friday, after much hassle with the hospital, I finally got a copy of the radiologists report from the MRI that I had this past Monday (the 24th). They were looking for Syringomyelia (basically, small sacks of retained spinal fluid), and thankfully, they found nothing. That means that while I still have the Chiari Malformation, I don’t have to drop everything this semester and have it fixed right now. I can wait until the semester is over, which takes a huge amount of strain off of me.
I’m probably going to have the surgery come December, but I have one more doctor’s visit to go to October 10, to make sure that the hearing loss isn’t related to anything else.
I had a date and I found out that I can wait on having this surgery. I count it as being a good week.
I’ll continue updating as I know more.

1. That’s great news.
2. I like the new header. I hardly ever come directly to this page because I read you from my RSS feeder, but it looks really good.

Golfwidow: Thanks much! I’m glad you like it. I was supposed to be doing homework and the like, but I didn’t want to do that, so I started fiddling with a new brush pack that I picked up few days ago. That, coupled with Dafont, meant hours of enjoyment making a new header.
Jake: Thanks, man. This whole deal has been teh suck, but, this news has relieved a lot of stress. It was nice to hear something positive for a change.

Ahem. First of all, it’s “teh sux” not “teh suck.” Second, your header is smashing. I mentioned this earlier, but your whole site looks more cohesive now. Your header totally wants to go grab a bite to eat with your background, and that’s the way things should always be. Third, yay! No head things! Pretty date things! Things!

I /love/ the header! It definitely ties the whole layout together.

Rachelskirts: I can misspell things however I want! *ptbbt* I’m glad you like the header, though!
Kate: Thanks! I got smart about it this time. Instead of just trying to match it, I used the color picker. What a concept?!? *sighs* You live, you learn, then you get the color picker.
