I really need some advice here

I don't know what to do. As some of you know surfing the iternet is kind of a hobby with me and because I don't move around to well I usually do a little surfing everyday. Well, this morning I was surfing and all of the sudden this advisory flashed on the screen..It said" ATTENTION!! YOU HAVE REACHED THE END OF THE INTERNET AND YOU CANNOT CONTINUE ANY FURTHER. YOU MUST GO BACK NOW!" Soooo... what do I do now???

6 quirks and other stuff

After being harrassed to the point of tears by a couple of grandaughters ( you know who you are and how viciously you harrassed your poor old sick Grandfather) I have decided to attempt an entry........







6 quirks of mine.



1. The fact that I find doing this very difficult because I am near perfect could be considered by
some to be a quirk. If I can ever learn to overcome my modesty I will have achieved NIRVANA and will truly be perfect.



2. The first thing I do every morning is comb my hair. I can't stand for it to be messed up even when no one is around.



3. I can't smile on command for pics like most people can. I can only smile if I think something is funny.



4. When I do smile I have a very crooked smile...more like a sneer..... I have one eye tooth on the left side that protrudes outward which I have always been self concious about especially as a teenager so I practiced smiling while not exposing that tooth hence the sneer.



5. I love a challenge and would tackle almost any challenge with enthusiasm often taking on more than I was capable of doing and then lose interest.I go through hobbies and projects like crazy. Once I am marginally competant at any hobby ( never really completely good at it ) I then lose interest and want to try something else.



6. MGJ might tell you I tend to be somewhat CONTROLLING but that is so not true. I just like to be in charge.





I could probably come up with more quirks but thats enough for now.





I really have been sickly. I got a cold or flu virus a month or so ago and it really zapped me like they usually do. while I had it I could not move at all. I could lift my head off the bed but that was it. MGJ really had a tough time moving me around but as I recuperated a little my favorite nurse practitioner showed us how to use a Gait belt to lift me up and help me move around a little. To make a long story short I am now pretty much recuperated from that bout but each time that happens it seems I am never quite as able to move around as well as I did beforehand.


Since no one can figure out what exotic disease I have (including the super neurologists at the U of Washington medical center) my next,and last stop, may be the Mayo clinic in Minnesota. I should know in a couple weeks if I'll be going there. If they can't come up with a diagnosis ( good or bad) then nobody can.





Thats all for now folks. More later.
