Oblivion Firebright

I have a middle ear infection. About 8 days ago I was having severe pain in my ear as well as yellow ear discharge so I went to the ER. They prescribed me Amoxicillan and a mild pain reliever. At this time I have 3 more days left to take the antibiotics.

However, I am still having very mild ear pain/itching as well as yellow and bloody ear discharge. I have lost most of my hearing out of the infected ear. Sometimes when I open my mouth, move a certain way or just at random times my ear will pop and crackle and hearing improves slightly only for a minute or so before clogging up again.

I need to know this: should I continue until the antibiotics are done to see if it clears up more or should I go back to the doctor?

It's quite large. It takes up about a fourth of the side of a brick. I would say the abdomen and the legs are about the same size. It's mostly brown, with black on the back and striped legs.

Bad photo, low res phone camera. You can still make out what it looks like, though.

I found it on an individual serving packet of Lipton tea. It says "*AC Nielsen 52 weeks ending March 17, 2012"

Sometimes when I'm laying in bed I can't stop thinking. Usually it's about sad things like losing my boyfriend or family, being alone, being trapped, feeling worthless. Other times I think of scary things like demons and monsters.

I can't make myself stop thinking. It only makes it worse.

Why do I have these thoughts and what can I do to make them go away?

I caught a movie on TV a while ago.

There was this creature that came out of a ceiling in a public bathroom (possibly a school) and it killed people and terrorized this kid.

I have no idea what else happened in the movie. It's been such a long time since I've seen it.

I get a really bad tummy ache after drinking milk and eating some brands of yogurt. It's kind of like a sharp pain mixed with burning and it makes me nauseous. I never have problems after eating ice cream or cheese. Is this lactose intolerance or could it be something else? It's not all dairy products I have issue with, just milk and some yogurts.

I had a dream where demons created Lay Away to cause mass poverty. I feel like this dream is somehow my brain telling me the truth, but I'm not sure.

I *think* it's an English movie.

In the beginning a zombie was hit by an asteroid (meteor?) before it gets to the person in the parking lot. There was this big scruffy dude with a beard that had guns and knives and he kicked major zombie butt. I think he eventually died.

I don't remember much else about the movie. It's been a long time since I've seen it. I want to watch it again!

He's in good condition, he still talks and no packaging. What could he be worth? (Estimates are fine)

Okay, I keep seeing people say Jesus is God. Er. Jesus is God's son, not God himself. O_o

Logically speaking, if you were saying

Jesus = God,

would that not also mean

all humans = God

....since we are all supposedly "children of God" and Jesus was a child of God?! I think not, but give me your answers.

Is Jesus God?

Does anyone know where I can get the Egyptian (or eastern) music that is absolutely beautiful? The kind with the haunting vocals, usually female. (Example of vocals, just to be clear. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qLuBuWgLYTU in the first 20 seconds, like the woman's vocals) I've really been wanting some music like that for a long, long time. I just can't find it because I don't know what it is or who does it.

Okay, so this is a long story that will fill everyone in on the mess that is my life. Names have been changed to protect myself and the (not so) innocent.

In winter 2007 I moved in with my mother and two younger brothers when I broke up with my boyfriend, George.

Everything was going pretty well-mother and I had our tiffs, but they were short-lived. Note that when I first moved in I had a well-paying job. I lost the job Dec. of 2009. I'm unemployed, looking for work now. I bring in $200 worth of food stamps a month to at least feed myself.

Now, let me explain my family. My mother is a very jealous lover, and slightly crazy. My 14 year old brother has anger issues. My 10 year old brother is just a general pain in the butt sometimes and he likes to instigate arguments (typical youngest child).

In June 2010 my best friend of 11 years, Natrix, was pretty much homeless. She was couch-hopping with her drunk *** boyfriend, Lanius. Well, my mother and I decided to let them move in with us. Very soon after they move in Natrix finds out she is pregnant. I was so excited for her! This would be her second child. The first is with the grandparents (on the child's father's side.)

We took her to the free clinic and they said she would have to pay $27 for the pregnancy test. My mother went off and spoke to management and found out what we had to do to get a free test and get Natrix on WIC. We had to sign legal documentation that Natrix was living with us and get it notarized. We did so, then got her set up on WIC and got her to the doctor.

During all this, Natrix and I start to fall apart (friendship wise.) We would snip at each other over silly things. Well, it got to the point where she would get an attitude with me and disrespect me in my own home. As a result, I would get an attitude back with her because I WILL NOT be disrespected in my own home. She keeps saying that I start stuff with her, not the other way around. She says she realizes she's being mean but it isn't her that changed. I've explained myself to her so many times, but it won't sink through. She throws her clothes everywhere, leaves dishes everywhere, pours a drink but never drinks it, and is generally a mess. I cleaned up behind her until I couldn't take it anymore and I told her, in a not so nice way, that she needed to mind the rules of the house or leave. She understood when she moved in what was expected of her. There is no excuse.

Well, one day her Lanius was drinking liquor (which he does not handle well at all) and my youngest brother wanted to play around. They were playing in the yard, Lanius had a broom handle and my brother a wooden sword. My brother accidentally hit Lanius in the knuckle and skinned it. Lanius tore the skin off his knuckle and swung the broomstick at my brother (baseball style) and hit him in the leg. It bruised up on the spot, he was hit so hard. I went off, tempted to knock Lanius' head off with the wooden sword (but I didn't.) I kicked him out and he is not allowed back onto the property or we will press charges for assault. Natrix got mad and said that he eats with her (she brings in about $200 worth of food stamps) and he needed to stay. Mother put her foot down, saying he is not to come around. Natrix accepted it at that point.

Now, we are fighting every day about her being disrespectful and hateful. She says that I am the one being mean and that's why she's mean to me. I admit that I COULD be nicer to her, but at what cost? I've put up with her foolishness and immaturity for 11 years. I've done all I could to make her happy. When I had something, she had it too. What was mine was hers. Back when she was with her ex-husband I gave her money in times of hardship to try to help her, but it was spent on drugs and alcohol. Since then I've given her small amounts of money for cigarettes. She shares with me, but most of the time she gets the better end of the deal. She takes advantage of people (though I don't think she realizes it) and doesn't care about them, just what she wants. I hate to bash her like this, but I can't take any more!!!

What should I do?

I'm looking for the "rip your head off, bathe in the blood, die" type. All I can find is the not-so-angry stuff. I don't want the following: Creed (HA!), NIN, KoRn, Manson, Rob Zombie, Puddle of Mud, Nirvana, Slipknot, ICP (even ICP isn't angry enough for me. >_< ) or anything like that. I want more hardcore. More screamo. Something dark. Something scary. Any suggestions?

It has been a gift of mine since I can remember, but instead of embracing it I have been pushing it away. When I was young, I befriended a young female ghost that lived in the same house years before I moved in. In that same house, I was laying on my stomach, sleeping, when I felt a poke on my back. When I turned over to see who it was, there was a man standing there in overalls and a red flannel shirt. The thing that was off was his head. It was white and shaped like a cat (like a child's drawing of one) and he had dots for eyes and no nose and mouth. Since then, I have pushed the gift away. There have been a few occurrences since that time, but here recently I have been seeing spirits and I have been feeling presences around me. I went to get an intuitive reading at a local psychic fair and the lady I spoke with immediately went into detail about my gift (though I have never seen her nor did I tell her what was going on.) She said I either need to embrace my gift or lose it. I want to embrace it, but I cannot find info on how to do so. Does anyone have any clue as to how to embrace my gift?
