blame public service announcements!

So I've been trying to go to sleep the past hour or so (it's now around 1:20) because Kenneth said that in order for me to not be so tired in the morning I should go to bed. Makes enough sense. But after practically forever of just laying in bed with thoughts filling up my head and just not being able to fall asleep, I got my computer back out and turned on my tv. If I'm going to be awake, I might as well watch Medium. So I can have dream about Joe DuBois, whose real name is Jake Weber. Just FYI.


So I was watching Medium and then this commercial comes on. It's a commercial for Lupus. It offered a website.

Can you guess the name?
couldihavelupus.gov

Naturally I had to go there. Just in case.

What I found out is this:
Maybe I could have lupus!!!!!

It said most of the symptoms are very vague so it's hard to pinpoint it to lupus!

But Kenneth was just telling me all about how he thought it was weird that I have been so tired and needing so much sleep lately and so it was almost a sign that I came across this site!! Now I know fatigue could be anything, but really!!! I mean Kenneth and I were just discussing my fatigue!!!

Secondly, I have had anemia for like 10 years now. And anemia is totally one of the symptoms!! 2 out 14!! Wow!!!!

Because of nursing school, I know nothing is more lupus-like than the butterfly rash across the nose bridge. Needless to say, I do not have this. But who knows, maybe I could be one of those rare people who just have random symptoms!!!

Oh and also, before I saw the lupus commercial, I was on the hunt for a noise machine!!! My friend Maggie has one and it's wonderful!! If you know where to get one, let me know! Or if you have one that you don't ever plan on using, I could give it a great home!!

Anyways, thanks for reading!!!

Love,
Ally
