... just kidding, i know a good amount of the oldbies are bound to.
I've really missed you all! I stopped posting for quite a while because of school stress, then never got back to it during the summer, now i'm back under school stress again. But, I really wanted to come back. I'm sure a lot has happened on the board, especially given the fact that GGC is no longer updating, plus the fact that so many of us have crazy lives that change all the time. So - now's the chance to get me up to speed on how you've been!
A summary of what's going on with me -
I worked this summer in a research lab, earned some cash, learned some lab techniques and helped on projects. Fun stuff. Had trouble living with my parents after being away from them for so long. Then August 28th it was back to school and also me and my boyfriend Greg's 6 month anniversary. After the parents left there was much rejoicing and sexing.
Then a few months of normal colleginess, classes, friends, boyfriend, not enough sleep, etcetera.
Fast forward to three weeks ago. Because of bad abdominal pain when walking, having sex, peeing, etcetera, i went to the university health services. After an exam, the nurse thought it might be an ovarian cyst sent me to the ER. Greg drobe me and stayed with me there, and after three hours I found out i did in fact have an ovarian cyst, measuring 3.1x2.7x2.1 cm. For those who don't know, that's already as big as, if not bigger than, a normal sized ovary. The ER doctor said it would probably burst on its own if it was related to my cycle, but that i should go to another doc for more imaging after my period if it still hurt. I proceeded to have the worst three weeks of my life in terms of pain, horrible mood swings and depression. I was having trouble doing my work which really isn't good for a science major in the middle of the semester. And finally, today, I'm feeling back to normal. My surviving is largely because of my boyfriend, who's been there for me this whole time, and he's simply amazing. I've felt really guilty for needing him so much, and making him go without sex (though we have fooled around and i've given him head a few times) for so long, and basically using him as an emotional dumpster... but today he has the day off from me and is recuperating after being the best boyfriend in the world. I love him so much. Sorry for getting all sappy... but after being a wreck who is no fun to be around, its been a relief to always have someone to turn to.
Anyway, on to more fun stuff. I've been drawing, and writing, and lots of other fun stuff... art is here! http://pickleweasel.deviantart.com
This weekend we went to an anime convention and cosplayed because we're dorks... Hm, what else...
OH! Sex news! this is good - i had never been able to have orgasms before because of meds i was on but now i'm starting to have them! Not absolutely mindblowing ones, sorta mini-orgasms but we're hopeful. Because Greg is, I have to use the word again, AMAZING in bed and I looooove sex with him. So being able to come finally is great. And I swallowed semen for the first time last week.... mmm... I'm very proud of myself

Hm, i guess that's all for now... I'm gonna try and catch up around here soon as much as possible. Ta-ta!
