Phenylketonuria

Guy #3 has threatened to remove me from his "list" if I don't update my blog. Kristine and Mrs. Pissy Britches have been questioning my whereabouts.

I don't know what has come over me. I've been so TIRED lately. I get up, go to work, come home, and go to sleep. That's right, people...I go directly to bed. With the exception of Monday (went downtown after work) and last night (went out drinking) I have been sleeping from 5:30pm (as soon as I get home) til 7am (when I wake up.) My need for massive amounts of sleep, my recent strange cravings for gallons of Raspberry Yoplait Yogurt, and the fact that I was late, put me into a panic. Which stressed me out even more and perpetuated my downward spiral of crabbiness, grogginess, and yogurtness. I never prayed so hard in my life for my Aunt Flo to visit, except for maybe that one time when I was 13 and absolutely convinced that I was the only girl in my entire middle school who hadn't become a woman yet. Anywho, to make a boring story short, I am now welcoming my ever-so-painful cramps with open arms and carrying around my tampons with pride, ala Statue of Liberty.

So I'm off for a mini-vacation. Will be back on Sunday. I promise to totally update my bloggie-poo then.

Love,
The Merry Widow

Commented by Anonymous:: I am jealous of your sleeping ability. If I knew you'd better, I'd totally call you a bitch. As it stands, I'll just sit here, quietly whimpering to myself and yawning.; April 29, 2005 7:35 PM

Commented by The Merry Widow:: Big Heavy: Phenylalanine is found in Fat Free Yoplait Yogurt, which is my current addiction. And since you did your research (see, there is a scientist in you afterall) then you know that Phenylketonurics can't metabolize Phenylalanine. But you also know that those with PKU are severly mentally retarded, which is how I felt during my 2 weeks of stress. The moral of the story is that science rulz!

Mrtl: If it makes you feel any better, I got a total of 5 hours sleep since Friday morning (it's 4:30 pm, Monday right now.) I partied a little too hard while on my vacation, but the black circles under my eyes right now were worth it. Oh, and feel free to call me a bitch. But remember that it takes one to know one!

Guy #3: Shut up, Mr. FooBoo.

K: Thanks!!! I'm gonna check out your blog tonight!

Kristine: I miss you too! I've been too busy at work to catch up on all of my blog reading. Can't wait to get to yours tonight. Oh yeah, and feel free to talk smack to Guy #3. He's just jealous at how fabulous my blog is.

Di: One time when I was little, I slept from 8:30pm until 5:30pm the following evening. I only woke up because my mom came into my room and told me I had to at least get up for dinner. So I ate some tacos and then went back to sleep by 8:30pm again. Maybe I had Epstein Barr Virus.

Mrs. Pissy Britches: I totally had fun! I can't wait to totally catch up with your blog tonight. I hope you're finally feeling better!; May 02, 2005 4:51 PM
