Mixed feelings

Well the last few days haven't been that great. To start with theres still the ongoing saga of my internet not working proparly, and although it seems that last time I phoned I managed to convince the guy it wasn't my fault he seemed to have no idea what was actually wrong. The fabled call from an engineer, or whatever, has still not yet materialised. If I hadn't been so tired yesterday I'd have phoned again, but when I got home I was too beat to shout at Indians. Hopefully I'll feel up to it tonight and I'm pretty much at the point of trying to cancel with them, my contract doesn't end till september but as far as I'm concerned they aren't providing the service I signed up for.

The thing that has been worrying me the most though was the results of my blood test. Now admittadly it was partly my fault (ok mostly) for not checking my messages on Friday and then having to worry all weekend. Anyway it turns out I have some abnormal blood test results which could potentially cause problems with the hormones. I have to take a half dose and get my blood tested in a month. I understand why since he is just trying to protect my health, but its deeply frustrating. All I can hope is that in a month things will be ok and I can increase the dose. Adittionally I'm a little miffed that he didn't proscribe anti-androgens, at the time I was happy to get anything but on consideration spending 3 months on just oestrogen when I want to go full time in just over 4 months doesn't seem good enough.

And finally just to add further irritation my appointment for IT training course was cancelled and pushed back, I'd been looking forward to that.

All of that without even mentioning how much of a pain in the ass work is. At least I have a break coming up at the end of this week, and I'm really looking forward to my trip to York, although nervous too.

Better go prepare for the lesson I have next, buh bye for now.

Doctor Visit

Today I had my second appointment with the Doctor, and its been 4 months since my first. I managed to come across much better this time, and going as female definately helped. He gave me my first set of hormones, which is what I was hoping for, and I can start taking them tomorrow night as long as the blood test comes back ok. Thats was the only part of the day I didn't like, they took some of my blood >.> I was feeling all anaemic afterwards and decided to come straight home :P

I'm pleased about how it all went, and it was a bit more expensive than I had expected, but on the other hand I can't think of a better way to spend my money.

When I got back I booked the hotel for my trip to York for my first ever date, and to visit my friend Anne as well. Really looking forward to that. All in all a good day, just a shame I have to go back to work tomorrow.

Silent Hill 2?


Apparently there is going to be another Silent Hill movie, which I'm really pleased about because the first one was one of my top movies from last year.


From AICN: Actress Laurie Holden says that "Silent Hill" producers were "going forward with a sequel" but that original director Christophe Gans was currently undecided about returning.


Might not be quite the same if Gans doesn't do it, and I am quite a fan of his from Brotherhood of the Wolf and Crying Freeman. Still heres hoping for another does of confusing, creepy and visually amazing horror.


On a different note I just read they are looking at making thee Forrest Gump sequal again. I understand there is a sequal to the original novel, but I really don't think that movie needs one.
