Tick! Tick! Tick!

So the results of the tests came back
I have a 5mm brain aneurysm
So while I wait for my appointment with the neurosurgeon
I'm like this


While it dawned on me that I could drop dead
All I thought was damn I haven't published Madame Styx
...or been to Rome and Spain!
Although travel as a ghost is probably alot cheaper
But I was amused that not once did I think
"Oh I'll never be a project manager again!"
So there's that answer
I've outgrown it

While I understand the severity of said pea in my brain
I'm more amused by something else
For a while I've suspected something was up
No symptoms or anything like that
Just a feeling something was 'off'
Granted that's my normal operation mode so I thought nothing of it
Then yesterday I remembered the introduction drawing I did 
of Madame Styx on her blog
So is the pic a warning from my intuition that something was happening?
Who knows...instead I think the 5mm in my head is Madame Styx hiding out 
It would explain why I think in 'Madame Styx sketch' most of the time
(you know I'm kidding right...I haven't lost my marbles)

Original Madame Styx photo...that dot is her
What really intrigues me is that prior to the testing
I told my hubby that the jostling I got was just a fluke
I told him my angels just couldn't figure out how to get my attention
So this was the best way to get tests done I probably wouldn't ever had
So when the doc called he said he was really happy we found it
Said if we hadn't done tests we never would have
The vertigo has been gone since I first scheduled the tests
So he kept saying that it was odd
I didn't mention angels or such for fear he'd think I lost my marbles for sure

Whatever it was who cares
I just hope when they go in to fix it that I don't lose my new zen-ness
It would suck to start all over again
Then again, I could die at which point I am totally going to haunt my family
Paybacks

For now
I'm making sure papers and bills are organized
And that I'm wearing clean underwear at all times
Wait, I already do that...

  3. Oh you are so cute in your post, clean underwear at all times, etc. Tell the doctor about angels, sometimes they are believers. I hope all is well and your treatment is brilliant and successful.
