iPods, the economy, and me

I finally got my grubby hands on an iPod touch. I admit, I really, really wanted an iPhone, but I couldn't afford the outrageous rates that Rogers was charging for a data plan. It's like highway robbery, except for them it's legal.

But yeah, I got my iPod and I take it with me to dialysis. It's a real life saver when there's nothing to do. Sure we have TV, but unfortunately for me, there isn't always something good on, especially when I have to go in for 8 am.

I'm still waiting on St. Mike's to hurry up with my transplant workup. They're taking forever. The nurse at the dialysis unit tried to reassure me since it's a 6 - 8 year wait for a transplant, and the wait time goes back to the date I returned to dialysis. But if I wanted a living donor transplant, if it could even be remotely possible, as it stands now I couldn't even get that because St. Mike's is dragging their feet.

I'm still looking for a new job too. What really sucks is because of my dialysis schedule, it's really difficult to find something. The goods jobs are no where in or around Simcoe County, which means I have to move to Toronto. But I have to give some notice to move there. It's a classic catch 22 scenario.

At least at the end of the month I get to attend the Green Party contention. What drama that will be.
