senashentaI currently have a bunch of fun dye circulating in my body. It's not radioactive or anything, but still. :P
The CAT scan went fine, though I started to freak out a bit when they put the IV needle in my arm, taped it there, and then sent me back to the waiting room. Sitting there in a hospital gown, with a big ass needle in my arm, surrounded by strangers, I had a bit of a panic attack. I don't do well with situations like that. But once they took me back to have the scan done, and I was away from the crowded waiting area, I was good again.
In any case, they pumped me full of dye, scanned me, took the IV out, and sent me on my way; when I was originally supposed to be getting my scan done here, I was supposed to get it done and then go to the ER to wait for the results. But since I had to go out of town to get it done, I have to wait for my doctor to call me with the results instead.
Which basically means that I still don't know if I have clots in my lungs or not, but it's a serious possibility. Fun stuff.
So, having been poked, prodded, stabbed and scanned, I headed out, and since we were in Barrie already, Mom and I went to Chapters. We were planning to go on this Monday coming up anyway, but this saved us a trip. I proceeded to spend way too much money on books/manga for me (they still don't have volume 11 of Furuba, dammit!) and Christmas pressies for other people.
--Tyrannosaurus Sue, by Steve Fiffer
--The Lost Dinosaurs of Egypt, by William Nothdurft (with Josh Smith)
--The Unicorn, by Nancy Hathaway
--Candidate For Goddess, manga volumes 1 & 2, by Sugisaki Yukiru
--Tokyo Mew Mew manga volume 1, by Ikumi Mia and Yoshida Reiko
--Chobits manga volumes 2 & 3, by CLAMP
--Tsubasa: Reservoir Chronicle manga volume 7, also by CLAMP
I was originally looking for Fruits Basket #11, Gravitation #4, and Mahoromatic #4, but they didn't have any of them. And since I finally managed to finish up some of my manga series the last time I bought some (I finished Instant Teen, Tokyo Mew Mew a La Modé, Deus Vitae and Tokyo Babylon), I figured I could start a couple of new ones; hence Candidate For Goddess and the first Tokyo Mew Mew series. Also, I've had the first volume of Chobits for about a year now, and am finally working on collecting more of that set. ^^;;
As for the book books, I've been having a serious dinosaur jones lately for some reason, which is why I got the two books pertaining to dinosaurs. I haven't bought a new dinosaur-related book in about a year and a half (I think), so I'm looking forward to reading them. The unicorn book I just got because I found it in the discount racks, and it looked interesting-- it's a little encyclopedia of "unicorn" myths from all over the world, and talks about the differences between them. :)
And that's just what I bought for myself. ^_^;; I'm not gonna list the other stuff, 'cause some of it's for people on my f-list...
Anyway, after the book store, we went to the Walmart across the road, where I got a Christmas gift for my brother, my step-dad, and my brother's girlfriend. AND I got myself two cheap DVDs... because they were FRAGGLE ROCK! X3 I have Fraggle Rock DVDs now!
...and now I'm really tired, because I can't breathe very well. But I have stuff to do, so off I go.
EDIT: Also, I was browsing DevART last night, and found ~PaperCut's gallery. It was awesome. Not specifically for art, but because she makes custom My Little Ponies, and does an awesome job of it. ^_^ I know, I'm childish. But check her gallery out. And dude. These two made me giggle and squeal: Sesshoumaru MLP and Naraku MLP. X3
Dance your cares away, worries for another day! Let the music play, down at Fraggle Rock!
