Whoa, whoa.. Never, ever thought in my life I would be at the receiving end of a heimlich maneuver! x_x

My parents and I went out for prime rib steaks for dinner and I was already drooling over our meal in the car on the way there. Everything was going fine til one of the pieces of steak got stuck.

I tried to drink more water but my body and mind instantly went into extreme panic mood. I remember getting up from my chair with my water glass and fell to the floor. I awoke to extreme pain throughout my body, the stomach area was the worst. I felt the maneuver three times when I awoke. Still being held back, I was able to grab at the piece of steak that was clogging my breathing.Thank goodness a nurse and her daughter who is a physical therapist were there to the rescue! 

I was really emotional after they sat me down and offered me water. I got a small cut from when the glass that was in my hand broke when I fell over. I'm still in shock over the whole incident, the craziest things seem to follow me! XD

I just took a relaxing bath. I'm replying to some emails and going to bed early. Goodnight and sweet dreams friends!

.. Where has the summer months gone?  Just one more day in August and September will be here. I will be the first to complain about the heat, humidity, refuse to go to the beach and run away from the sun but I much loved and enjoyed having the pool up for the summer. I adore the fall and the weather has been reflecting the upcoming season. 

I need to post more and catch up on friend entries. I must write out some letters and get back into Crossposting.. I still haven't even put up a bio on here.. My moods are up and down due to the not so lovely arrival of the monthly period. And I cannot possibly forget how much I wish I could be cuddling someone right now. -_- I loathe being single. 

I had the pleasure of meeting up with a good friend, Cherany, who I've known through LiveJournal for years. I didn't sleep too much the night before, I was too anxious and excited to finally meet in person! Cherany is a such a sweet person. Her colorful outfits and kind positive attitude will put a smile on your face.

I made sure I made it into the city early so I would have extra time to grab some goodies to welcome her first trip to New York. I was going crazy looking all over for the foam statue of liberty crown often seen on tourists. I finally asked a store worker for help who pointed above me. I'm 4'10 so my neck doesn't crank that high.:P I grabbed one and became lost looking for a good flower shop. Beautiful ladies deserve beautiful flowers and I wanted to make her first day in NYC extra special. I picked out a mixed bouquet over simple roses because she's so colorful. :D

Next I wasted a whole bunch of time trying to hail down a taxi because I was too lazy to walk. I finally just took the subway which brought me right to the restaurant we planned to meet at.

So I ended up late, which I really, really, realllyyy hate not only being in general but it's just plain rude on my part. :/
 
Afterwards we arrived to see the ballet titled Whipped Cream right on time. The tickets were twenty seven dollars and I assumed we'd be looking at little dots. We actually had great seats! We were high up but I could see the whole stage. I had a great time, it was such a fun and unique time - my first ballet! :)
