1. OPI La-paz-itively-hot with W&W megalast Silver Lake (dollar general limited edition). Oh, man. Oh, man. I die for a good silver accent!
2. First of all, I want to thank you all for your continued thoughts, prayers and understanding. I know I’ve been painfully cryptic here and on twitter in regards to the medical saga–but I just didn’t want drop a whole lot of “could be’s” on you without having any real true information. Basically. The story goes: I was having (and am still having) severe abdominal pain. Like any normal person, I assumed it was my gall bladder and went to the doctor who ordered an ultrasound. On that ultrasound my gall bladder seemed okay, but they found three “cysts” on my liver. They assured me they were nothing but wanted to order a CT just so they could monitor the growth in 6 months. After the CT, they came back and dropped a massive bomb on me. They were concerned they were not, in fact, cysts but malignant tumors. Let me let that sink in for a second. I am twenty seven years old, and they were telling me there was a chance I could have cancer. On/in my liver. I shut down. I don’t know if there is a normal reaction to that kind of news, but I don’t think I made sense for about two weeks. They ran a few more tests and ordered an MRI. I won’t have more information as far as treatment goes until after the 27th, but I got the call yesterday. The things on my liver are tumors (vs. cysts), however, they are not malignant. Yes, you read that right there is no cancer!!!! I’m sure surgery is still probably in my future, but hell, you can cut me up til the sun comes up I don’t care! I know, without a doubt, there is no way I would have gotten through all of this waiting without all of your prayers and continued support. And I couldn’t wait to celebrate this news with all of you!

[Wah. I miss that bedroom and that house!]
3. I bought a pair of boots on a whim back in an Athens Outlet a few years ago (three, I think). They were my favorite. I wore them all the time. I knew last winter it was time to retire them, but I just loved them so much. The hubs bought me an adorable pair of boots from Target last Christmas to replace them. But there is the tiniest hint of a narrow heel (think: wedge). So they just aren’t as comfortable. I found my original favorite boots at Rack Room on sale this week! They’re having a great sale right now if you’re in the market for shoes!
4. I really can’t think of anything else to say. Especially because my mind is still on the second point! I think that’s good enough news to count as two today!
5. Infamous by Lauren Conrad. I know. But I read the first two so I had to read the third–especially when it became available through the e-library. This one gets the same review as the first two–cute, entertaining and quick.
