Something big, something that would change my life &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0"&gt;dramatically&lt;/span&gt;. Growing up I was excited, surely I was going to be famous.....even though I knew I had no talent, I am profoundly tone deaf.  Sometimes I think singing (tone deaf and all)to an audience would be &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1"&gt;easier&lt;/span&gt; to handle that what actually made my life change. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana;"&gt;About five years ago at the tender (yeah right) age of 22 the good old doctor told me I had &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2"&gt;Crohns&lt;/span&gt; disease. Now for those who want the factual explanation of what this is go ask Dr Google &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana;"&gt;(me and him are great buds), and those who want the reality, for me (and it differs for everyone who has it) its like living with constant &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3"&gt;diarrhea&lt;/span&gt;. Lovely ah. So if you ever meet me and see me running, its not because I'm out for a &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4"&gt;pleasant&lt;/span&gt; jog!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana;"&gt;This is my first post, I'm a virgin at this blogging world so brace yourself for the ride. I'm going to write about &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5"&gt;snappets&lt;/span&gt; of my life living with &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_6"&gt;Crohns&lt;/span&gt;, all the glory details, the &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_7"&gt;embarrassing&lt;/span&gt; shit (look at me trying to pull out a joke) that happens, just basically life as a 27yr old in Auckland, NZ, trying to live it as normally as I can, &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_8"&gt;thats&lt;/span&gt; when the &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_9"&gt;embarrassing&lt;/span&gt; stuff happens. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana;"&gt;I know this is a little post, baby steps, but I'm off to watch a movie, its a &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_10"&gt;rager&lt;/span&gt; of a &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_11"&gt;Saturday&lt;/span&gt; night!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana;"&gt;PS: &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;I always thought the font &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_12"&gt;Verdana&lt;/span&gt; was veranda, all the years that I had spent tapping away on my merry computers were shattered when the truth came crashing into my world, I was gutted, no way can I pronounce &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_13"&gt;Verdana&lt;/span&gt;. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4513665387388121751-8747487700828601743?l=livingwithpoos.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://livingwithpoos.blogspot.com/feeds/8747487700828601743/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://livingwithpoos.blogspot.com/2009/09/wonderful-full-of-shit-world-of-crohns.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4513665387388121751/posts/default/8747487700828601743'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4513665387388121751/posts/default/8747487700828601743'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://livingwithpoos.blogspot.com/2009/09/wonderful-full-of-shit-world-of-crohns.html' title='The wonderful full of shit world of Crohns'/><author><name>Kate</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06143793624175162808</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_8Lbz-tbylxY/SquIMZ1vVLI/AAAAAAAAAAM/AcWFBPE2oLE/S220/DSCF2038.JPG'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry></feed>
