yellow feet syndrome
so as previously noted on deb's website, i have developed a new physical condition where my feet go numb and turn yellow after stepping outside in the cold for a few minutes. and by yellow i mean highlighter yellow. i went to the dr down here about it and apparently i have poor blood circulation (really get out!!!) and probably have a condition calle rheinoids syndrome or some crap i cant remember i wish i did cuz i would definitely be looking it up on google and emailing it to the whole world. apparently my feet are turning yellow b/c when it gets cold, all the blood leaves so all the color goes with it. and yellow is apparently the color of callouses without blood (people's hands get white unless they have calluses). the dr told me the condition gets worse with age and i probably have a HUGE sensitivity to cold weather. that's right, deb: all those years i said i felt i was getting frostbite while skiing, i was actually not overexaggerating. apparently i can still go out in the cold i just need to go inside if i feel like my feet start to shake after they go numb (as this is the second level of frostbite). apparently yellow feet is the first level. o yeah, and i should add i told him about gma perry's swollen feet and ankles and he said i was probably going to have that problem when i got older. AWESOME!

mom got out the turkey napkin holder. did u say something ot her about it?
that's really crazy-i never said a thing about it to her
to all of Becca's readers:
yes, she is a hypochondriac. but, she really will be out of comission for awhile b/c she had her tonsils out yesterday. however, we are expecting a full recovery considerring she is already talking (of course i don't really think she could go even 4 hours w/o that no matter how much pain she is in).
