Had a wierd grwoth removed on my arm turned out to be......

Glomangioma.

"A painful tumor composed of specialized pericytes that are usually arranged in single encapsulated
"A glomus tumor (glomangioma) is a rare benign neoplasm, is a specialized arteriovenous anastomosis usually found in the skin of the extremities. It arises from the glomus body." nodular masses that occur almost exclusively in the skin."

Basically, it is a cell mass, of blood veins and nerve endings that are quite painful, and from what I have found on the internet, they tend to appear in people from 20-40. This particular one was on my left forearm, about half way between my elbow and wrist. Got it removed and have a couple of stitches that will be removed in a next friday. I really should have had it taken out sooner (been bothering me for 3+ years now). but at least in this case, I finally did, and it was benign.

Oh, I am also slowly looking into starting to eat raw food, ie fruits and vegetables. Now before you get the wrong idea, no I am not going vegen. It's just that I am seeing this improve my moms over all health, and I know I need to loose some weight, and thought I would give this a try. It can't hurt eatting more fruits and vegetables anyways, I know I eat too much junk food as is.

Ok, that is all that is new with me so far. I really should get back to trying to continue writing my zombie guild, but hell, I am now thinking, that what ever I write in that guild well help keep people save from the mindless politicians and there undead followers.

Guess I should do a update

So I haven't really said much lately. Well the truth is I haven't done much in the past couple of months to warrant a update. In July I went to the beach for a week, really fun, spent time with my family.

In august, I decided to turn 29, but I don't think I will be doing that again. But in all seriousness, or some kind of seriousness, my birthday was good, It was broken into a 3 parts. 1st part was Sushi dinner with my Dad, his girlfriend, My brother, sister-in-law and Niece. God my niece was so adorable when she was eating sushi, she just stuffed her mouth full of it, btw she's about 15-16 months old. (Don't hate me, if I got if wrong, I know she is older then 1, but less then 2).

The 2nd part was a dinner part at my brothers house, with my friends, it was a Russian themed meal, pretty much everything was pickled, and I got wasted on vodka, between 5 people, we killed 1 1/2 bottles of Vodka, and 1/2 bottle of Plum Brandy, Fun, but I won't be doing that again soon, nasty headache the next day.

The 3rd part was with my mom, brother and sister-in-law, and they took me to see Phantom of the Opera, I had just got off work, so I was a little tired, almost fell asleep during the first part, during some of the slower scenes, but I managed to stay awake through the whole opera. I was excellent, plus I managed to be looking through binoculars when they did a flash for the phantom to escape, and I was looking right at the flash, needless to say, got a good laugh out of my brother, when I curse a little...

So only new thing for me in work, is that I am looking at going from night shift to day shift, I am hoping at the turn of the year, been doing this for almost 3 years now, and it does get a little tiring.

That about it so far.

Oh, and if you have a chance to take a look at Wesley Clarks website: Securing America
I know it is a Democrate themed sight, but I still think he has good ideas, and if you are republician, or green party, or no party, it is still worth looking at, just to at least know what the other side is doing.

ok, know thats it for now.

Cobra

So I had a thought for a halloween costume, now you might be thinking, why halloween costume in July. well each year I wanted to do something cool, but end up waiting until the last minute, and this costume would require me to actually spend some time and make some items.

I'll add to this in a bit......

Update: cool movies that you want to see with me, when they come out.

GI Joe, Video (no trailer yet, those bastards)
Tropic Thunder, Video

Boom bOOM BooM

Mayhem Fest part 3, last I promise

Finally, here is some video's of Disturbed playing

Will upload once I get to a none WiFi internet connection, way too slow where I am at right now.

Mayhem Fest part 2

So a little more to add.

While there I was able to get a photo with Herman Li of Dragonforce. I did feel a little bad interrupting him and the lady he was talking too, but I guess that is the price to pay for fame.



A little shaming, this dude who was wearing shorts, was wearing this blanket around his waist, you might think not much of a issue, but later into Disturbed, he was rocking out, and it was quite funny.


Finally, me with Mt Rainer in the back ground, Mike (friend from work) and his kids, Mt Rainer at dusk.
