Long time no post,

Hey all.
Sorry its been so long. Honestly I've been uber busy as of late and haven't been able to find the time to write my usual witty rants. Anywho update on all that is LeShad. hmm....Oh OK so I think I'll spill the beans about my recent development. I'll do it now because I believe everyone who didn't know before that needed to knows now and the rest...well...SURPRISE!!!. So pretty much what happened was I've been accepted into a course to learn how to be an IT technician and computer networking specialist. The official title well that's kinda undefined but the program is called Internet Specialist. So YA me. The downside is I'm leaving my current career field. Is it a gamble? Sure a bit but I strongly believe there is more security in the field I'm going into then the one I'm in plus I believe it's something I'll enjoy doing much more.

Regardless lets just say for now, I needed a change and for future plans between my daringly wife and I this makes the most sense. So that's the big news, and around this time next year I'll be finishing up my program and starting an exciting new career in the computer IT sector. So ya me! *holds for applause*.

Thank you...now onto other things. Well my health has been OK so far. My thyroid levels seem to be stable as my Doctor has cut back on my meds, my only concern now is the symptoms of my hypothyroidism have not really improved. I'm still lethargic, with stiff and sore joints and I have problems concentration and remembering things and I'd mention the weight thing but to be honest there are other reasons for that one.

One thing I have read regarding hypothyroidism is that its symptoms are so similar with other conditions that its possible that it masks other issues. Unfortunately recent blood tests have apparently come back negative. I have ideas of what it could be, but to avoid sounding like a hypochondriac I'm going to keep them to myself and speak to my Doc about seeking other treatment options. Its frustrating that in this day and age and with our great health care system and technology it can still take forever to get a proper diagnosis for something I strongly believe is not that big of a deal. I am making it an issue though for the fact I'd like to know what's wrong with me so I can cope, get treated and maybe recover from whatever it may be. A reason for the length of diagnoses I find that is our lack of Doctors, current Doctor's are so taxed that they have to adopt a "wham-bam thank you ma'am" approach to patient care. Maybe not true of all Doctor's but mine specifically. I spend hours to just see him and he ushers me in and out super quick to the point where most of my concerns are not even addressed. I talk to him about what I think it is and he tells me not to read stuff on the Internet to get myself too worked up and instead its nothing and to stay positive. I understand reading stuff on the Internet isn't a good idea but honestly I get all of 5 minutes with my Doctor so I have to kind of lead him in the right direction of what I think it is as quickly as possible. I am exaggerating here but not by much. I have been actively looking for another Doctor but every Doctor people recommend is not seeing new patients. And I don't really want to take a leap of faith to see a random Doctor as I may end up having one worse than my current one. Its infuriating that I'm stuck behind this wall but lack of something better its just going to have to go on my ever growing stress pile which lately is getting pretty big. Don't worry I don't see a break down coming my way in the future just sucks to deal with is all.

Regardless I really can't think of much more to write about for now. So I'll end this here. Sorry it started on a high note and ended sad but thanks all for the listen anyway.

Oh wait another good thing, doesn't really concern me but it did make me happy. One of my favourite comedic people in the world Conan O'Brien, has recently announced he's going back to TV come November to take on a late night talk show on TBS. Unfortunately its TBS but the at least he'll be on TV and won't be hindered by network censorship. So awesome for him. OK so now I'll go
Ciao for now.
