Say What?

Life is weird.
For the past two days I have been feeling this weird sensation in my chest. It's like someone surgically implanted a cell phone in my heart and set it on vibrate mode. And someone keeps calling... repeatedly.
So, I went to the doctors today... I was diagnosed with premature atrial beats. Basically my heart beat is a little off and the vibrating sensation is the heart resetting itself. A normal abnormality, the doctor said. So, I am normally abnormal... (but I think I already knew that.)
It is brought on by the following: alcohol in excess, fatigue, cigarettes, fever, anxiety, stress and caffeine. Well, yes- I am tired, I have a lot of stress- and does this mean I have to give up my Diet Dr. Pepper? Probably. Sigh.

Don't lie--we all know it's the alcohol. But I like the "normally abnormal" thing...

Hmmm... that is most interesting. I'm glad the verdict was normal ly abnormal. Would I expect anything less?
And the answer is yes. Let it go, girl.
