been silent for a while

So y'all may have noticed that I have been silent on Facebook and my blog for the last little bit, the reason is that I have just been busy, between work, school, church, and homework there aren't really that many hours left in any given week. This semester I have Speech, Introduction to Education, Class Piano 1, ASL1, and Drawing 1 <-- that is just my school schedule then I work as many rush shifts @ Domino's as I can, Wednesdays I have AWANA, and Sundays I have Children's Church, now don't get me wrong I enjoy doing most of that stuff but there just aren't enough hours to all that and keep up with Facebook and my blog. Unfortunately I am being forced to take a break from some of this stuff to have my gallbladder taken out on Thursday, then my birthday is on Friday(lovely birthday present huh?)and then hopefully next week I can get back to full activity load. For now my plan is to attempt to go to classes tomorrow morning and then hopefully to the art show that I have a piece in(FSCJ downtown campus if anyone wants to go) and take the rest of the week as it comes.

A little NASCAR for you, Tony Stewart will be crowned the Nextel Cup Champion for the third time in his career, but the only reason that they say he has three Nextel Cup championships is because they like to call each champion under the current name of the series, for example they say that Richard Petty and Dale Earnhardt have seven Nextel cup championships even though Nextel didn't take over sponsorship for the cup series until 2006, any way Tony Stewart was the last guy not named Jimmie Johnson to win a title which he won in 2005 and before that he was one of the last two guys to win the Winston Cup championship which he won in 2002. One NASCAR reporter pointed out that Tony Stewart had won a championship every three years so the next time they expected him to win a title was 2008, but Jimmie Johnson was on a streak that would go on two more years not only tying Cale Yarborough(sp?) with three consecutive titles but then making history in his own right by winning not 3, not 4, but 5 straight titles so I believe that some day Jimmie Johnson will be in the NASCAR hall of fame.

In case you were curious

In case anyone who reads my Twitter or facebook is curious what is wrong with my wrist I'll let you know. In April of 2010, on a Friday, I was rollerskating and fell with my left hand stretched out, that resulted in my elbow and shoulder getting "jammed" and I thought that is all that had happened to my wrist, the following Monday I had a Dr's appointment so I brought up the fact that I had fallen and the Dr decided to take some X-rays and make sure nothing was broken; it was determined then that I had not broken my wrist but just sprained it, the treatment method was to take anti-inflammatory medicine and wear a brace on my arm for 6 weeks. After the 6 weeks my wrist was still bothering me so my primary care doctor referred me to an orthopedic doctor. The orthopedic doctor took another set of X-rays and said that he showed no broken bones and that I should try physical therapy. I went through a 6 week course of physical therapy designed for the hand and wrist, the
