medication side effects

So - I've been reading about prescription drugs and their side effects... some of these must make me go WTF?!... here are a few which I would rather have the disease than the cure!

Let's start with

Alli -

Based on information submitted to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in order for Alli to be approved, the following side effects were commonly reported in clinical studies:

• Abdominal pain (stomach pain) -- in up to 20.1 percent of people
• Fecal urgency (an urgent but controlled need to have a bowel movement) -- up to 18.8 percent
• Gas -- up to 18.6 percent
• Oily spotting (uncontrolled anal oil seepage) -- up to 17.7 percent
• Gas with a small amount of oil or stool -- up to 17.2 percent
• Fatty or oily stool -- up to 17.2 percent
• Diarrhea -- up to 11.9 percent
• Oily evacuation (bowel movements of just oil, without stool) -- up to 11.6 percent
• Sinus infection -- up to 10.6 percent
• Soft stool -- up to 10.1 percent. http://weight-loss.emedtv.com/alli/alli-side-effects.html
  

let me think... be fat? anal seepage? exercise? poo of oil? eating healthy?... oh the decisions I face in life!

miraprex -
There have been reports of patients taking certain medications to treat Parkinson’s disease or RLS (Restless Leg Syndrome), including MIRAPEX, that have reported problems with gambling, compulsive eating, and increased sex drive. It is not possible to reliably estimate how often these behaviors occur to determine which factors may contribute to them. If you or your family members notice that you are developing unusual behaviors, talk to your doctor.


Some of the 1,800 men studied by the researchers have reported gambling losses greater than $60,000. For most patients, the gambling behavior got better after their drugs were changed.

let us think again... twitchy legs? $50,000+ in debt? ants in my pants? getting AIDS from a hooker?... pharmaceuticals just don't make things easy these days!

love is patient...

I don't care what religion you are, or if you even have one. This applies to every person who's ever loved past, present or future... This is what love is all about. ACCEPTANCE if you are unable to accept something about someone, and are expecting them to just "grow out of it" or "quit for you", you are sadly mistaken and need to get a grasp on reality that no matter how sexy, awesome or whatever you are... NOBODY will ever be EXACTLY what you want. EVER. There will always be something that bothers you, let it be everyday or once a year.... there will ALWAYS be something. And if you can't accept that person's flaws, seriously, you are NOT meant to be together. You can't expect someone to change for you. You can change for them, if you so choose, but you cannot expect them to just change who/what they are to be with you. Love isn't about changing each other, it's about accepting and loving each other. Acknowledging flaws and taking the good with the bad. Haven't you ever heard wedding vows?! "for better or worse" <- it's not just a fancy thing for saying, hey, it's all good, but in case I decide to be a douche, I want to know you still love me. C'mon people, reality is a nice reference point for love. There will we be better and there will be worse. If you can't take the worst, you can't have that ring! or the honey moon.

my baby.

I am hoping to start working on my car soon-ish... the only thing stopping me is $money$. So here is a brief list of things I need/want to do... seal the doors, rip out the carpet, re-do the seats, swap the transmission, put a porche 911 engine in. change the gas tank, modernize the dashboard with the old school circle gages, fix the headlights, fix the glass for the windows, put a scoop on back *kind of like the one shown here*, fix side windows, sandblast frame, fix left headlight, redo the electrical, paint the car *probably about that color and probably no stripes, and finally... put in a cup holder

then! when all is said and done, and she's ready to go... I gotta name my new baby!

tear drops on my guitar

gotta love the feeling c:<

emo bitch.1

I'm depressed as fuck, and ready to kill

I hereby declare I, Tori (secret), opt to no longer love another person, but rather be a selfish, lothing, bitter old whore who had 50 cats instead of a husband and grandkids that call me dragon lady

_{I have also labled this post, emo.1, because I'm sure more emo will come D:}

!RockstarVanity

my one true love who never failed to impress me is gone :(. and I am sad. :
Okay - so maybe I'm a slut, and have the tendancy to love everybody - however, I really did like her a lot and she had some pretty fabulous art. I liked that it was simple and her rambling in the artists comments made me feel happy to know I wasn't the only one that did that =)
Anyhow - if anybody knows why she's gone, this is cricual information that I must know. maybe just because I have the problem of being super nosey and needing to know aboslutly everything... even when I know I really don't or I simply don't care... anyhow... I wrote a poem for her.

R is for really awesome
O is for overly helpful
C is for cookie loving mofo
K is for a kick ass artist
S is for slut penguin loved
T is for tori margaret approved
A is for already missed
R is for really, really special

V is for very sexy
A is for amazing in bed
N is for not on dA with me
I is for in my head
T is for totally hard to write for
Y is for yes, I randomly made things up
