I love watching Agatha Christie's Poirot series on a Sunday night. The guy they have playing him is my favourite Poirot. He has kind eyes and he's a complete gentleman. I love watching him solve bizarre crimes, and I love Poirot's healthy ego. *giggle*
Sadly, they're not showing it anymore. I think they ran out of episodes to show. Damn it all. I should read the books but I never have the energy to get out of the house and get them from the library. Maybe when I'm next healthy I'll do that or something.
Apparently the series is available on DVD. I might see how much they are at the ABC shop. It'll look good next to my copy of "Murder on the Orient Express" (Mmm, Michael York!!).
The pain came back today. I started out good in the day but it just got worse and worse and now I'm on codeine and still in agony. My cousin's girlfriend said that the reason the pain has been getting worse is that I'm focusing on the pain more, and that when you have endometriosis, you don't hurt all the time. Which is different from what I hear from other people. I said, "It's different for everybody" and "I try to get past the pain, I do. I try so hard. Sometimes, I just can't fight it."
I feel so weak for not maintaining my life despite the pain. That trapped feeling takes me, like I'm wasting my life. I asked Mum if I was focusing on the pain too much, cause I hear it a lot. Mum said "No. If you hurt, you hurt."
Sometimes, Mums just say the perfect thing. :)
I really felt like Cinderella this weekend. I knew it wouldn't last forever, but I tried to enjoy it the best I could. I think I did that pretty well.
Oh yeah! And that show, Ghost Whisperer? It sucks. Seriously. The people that write this show have NO idea what being a medium is like. Did they even bother researching the nature of encountering spirits? It's rarely so straight forward and informative. It's often complicated puzzles you have to work out. That's why I like Medium. She often sees things in symbols and phrases or whatever, which have NO meaning to her but end up meaning something very important. Ghost Whisperer is just stupid. Bleh.

Date: 2006-03-14 12:32 pm (UTC)I was reading your latest comments and i find myself being extremely annoyed that your cousin's girlfriend says endometriosis isn't painful!!! Obviously your cousin's girlfriend doesn't have this disease or she wouldn't be saying this.
I have this and there are days where i am in so much pain i can't physically get out of bed. Please don't take any notice of anyone that says you are weak or exaggerating. You are not weak at all, i felt like this at first but now with the support and care of my family and friends and a website i found i have realized that i am not weak, and neither are you.
Your cousin's girlfriend needs to be a bit more supportive towards you instead of trying to put you down and make you feel worse than you already do.
The website is called "Endometriosis-you are not alone" i would advise you to take a look at this, it is been a great help to me.
Hope everything works out for you, and please do not take anymore notice of people who are negative towards you.
Good Luck. :-)
