Orlando! (a week later)
I'm so fucking tired...I hurt all over...I made it through a 12.5 hour day...4 more days to make it through before I can be a cripple again...these are the times I don't have my life, I just hate being alive. I got a call from a Dr today. Hopefully tomorrow when I call back there will be an answer. I don't even care what it is at this point. ( Read more... ) -

So I had a CT scan today..more Barium than I could stomach, a fight between my doctor and the radiologist regarding whether or not I could have the contrast dye IV as a diabetic of over 5 years even if my kidneys have passed their creatinine test with flying colours, and finally I go into the scan. Hopefully we will have some answers soon. I need ( Read more... ) -
a how we met story
A year ago I was at the PA Renaissance Faire. I hadn't been t a faire in years, and the fact that I was there was mostly due to a guy I was trying to date and his interest in going. My last impulse of the day was a stand I'd walked by a million times with little to know interest. They sold cute little dragon shoulder puppets I'd never been able ( Read more... ) -
oops
I forgot the tea boiling on the stove...so now I've got a blackened glass pot...any tips for how to go about cleaning it? Hubby has bronchitis really bad, and I'm trying to make him some tea! In that vein, anyone have any other ideas for treating bronchitis before we have to go t the doctor? -

So half of my day was spent stumbling around in self inflicted darkness...mainly because when I awoke this morning for work I couldn't even stand the light coming through my eyelids. For an hour or so that would've made my mother proud, I managed to find, make, and eat a bowl of cereal and take my meds with a pillow tied around my face. For those ( Read more... ) -

Tonight had more fireworks out in WC, a LOT more. They were gorgeous...we got something like 15 complaints, though. I slept most of today after a whirlwind yesterday. We went out to Ryan's dad's for a BBQ then out with Zak and Dharti and the gang for their 2nd anniversary. Of course, there's always a little drama when people get drunk. ( Read more... ) -

Man, how habits have changed in the last year. Case in point. We went out to Olive Garden's Never Ending Pasta Bowl last night. In years past I've gotten through 3 plates before taking the last one home, making it worth my while for $8.95. I got through soup, a breadstick, and half a bowl of pasta before I just couldn't eat anymore. Yes, ( Read more... ) -
long night= long sleep...ouch
Last night was a much needed break from the norm, but it wore me out so much I just woke up. We decided at around 1130 or midnight to hit up Daydreams, a BYOB strip club in Philly, so I got as gussied up as my wobbly legs would allow and vowed to find sexy ways to lean on things. Ryan, I must say, looked too dashing to be seen with my gimpy ass, ( Read more... ) -

On TV and in movies a patient enters an Emergency Room with unfamiliar symptoms and a team of medical professionals runs tests until they can figure out what the cause of the symptoms is. In real life one walks into an ER and they run tests until they are convinced the patient is merely stressed and needs sleep. Let me start from the beginning. ( Read more... ) -
waiting for valerian to kick in
I was pretty productive today considering how sick I've felt. I've been losing chunks of time, projecting, finding myself in other places...but I've also been losing muscle mass, strength, and energy, sometimes to paralysis. Then my blood sugar spikes, I throw up, and I fall asleep. It comes and goes all day. It started at work the other day, ( Read more... )
