Because I found out today that I have a healthy cervix.

You can’t underestimate the importance of good cervical health. Can you imagine what life would be like without a cervix? I suppose half of us are already living that way…but for the other half, let us take a minute to rejoice in the wonder that is our cervix. I’m not sure what they do besides keep babies from falling out before they are ready, but I’m sure glad mine is all healthy.

The other happy thing that happened today is I read [Terribly Happy](http://www.terriblyhappy.com/) and it made me giggle. And it reminded me that I’ve got terrific friends like **Omar** to help me through this.

And I might have found an apartment! Woo Hoo!

However, my legs still hurt so if you sent me a get well card, flowers or choccy, don’t worry I can still use them. 😃

So did you have the kind of groin ecologist with a sense of humor? Once he/she reached the spot, did he/she say, “Tatertot, I just want you to know that if you need anything, I’m at your cervix.”

Well, yesterday, around 12:15, I went to my university to do some errands. I had to go to Career Services(CS) to figure out what I should change my major to. I can’t figure it out. Originally it was Anthropology, but forget that; too boring for me. I might end up in Education. :rolleyes: But the CS wasn’t open; they were only open from 9-12. Figures! Then, I went to the Student Employment Services. They usually have a board up saying what jobs are open. Nothing was up! Waaahhhhh! That means I will have an unsuccessful time trying to find a job on their online service. ☹ Okay, then I went to the Undergraduate Registrar’s Office(URO) to do a grade deletion for my Stats class. I had to change an E to a B(still don’t kno how that happened but I’ll take it:)). The Office location was changed because of summer. I did not have time to find it because I was in a hurry.

So, to sum it up, I successfully achieved nothing at school yesterday.:rolleyes:

**Chef** , that has to be the funniest thing I have heard all day. I don’t know if my doctor would day that, but if she did, I wouldn’t be able to keep myself from busting out laughing. Relax. Ha!

**Tater** , I know what you mean about a sunburn. I have a little German ancestry mixed with my mostly Mexican and American Indian ancestry. Of course, the Geman prevails in my skin, therefore I have a wonderful time trying to prevent sunburns. This only pertains to my face and chest, though. the rest of my body is tan already. 😕

Life without a cervix is hell, believe me. Why else would guys spend so much time trying to get close to one?

Ewwwwwww. That’d be a bummer on the bus or at a job interview or something.

I just bemembered what else a cervix is good for: It keeps icky stuff from getting _ **in** _, too.  
Just had to post that so y’all wouldn’t think I’m stupid.

**TheLoadedDog** (gotta get you a nickname), thanks, I do feel much better today. Esp. now that I know that my cervix has _ **two** _ functions. 😃
