Well, I've started a tradition. May 26th is now my annual tradition of having surgery. What?? Well, since it's been so long since I've updated, let me back up a bit ( Read more... )

Well, I'm seeing my neurologist again on Friday, and she wants to put me on a medication that I was on when I was in high school, the glory days of having doctor's appointments and pill regimens shoved down my throat. It was for a completely different reason. But let's just admit it, I'm a little bitter. But I did some further research on it, and I ( Read more... )

There's really nothing like feeling completely hopeless in your own body. My migraines have returned with a vengeance, although let's be honest--they never really left. I've been seeing a neurologist who has been very flippant with me and, upon my telling her that although the medication she prescribed broke the month-long cycle, that I was still ( Read more... )

I've been getting more migraines lately, which worries me. I never understood or experienced one until I was in college, and my roommates almost took me to the emergency room. I used to just get the normal occasional (once a week maybe) plain headache, so I learned to just keep some Motrin around, pop a couple, and I'd be fine. Now, though, I find ( Read more... )

Well, fall is officially here, and as it always seems to happen, it stays hot for way too long and then suddenly gets way too cold, with too few of those really great fall days. There are leaves all over our yard, but that is less of a headache this year because we bought a leaf vacuum/blower/mulcher ( Read more... )

I am busy with a lot of things right now. Last night I was busy getting wasted at 7pm--passed out by 10:30. We are also busy refinishing our hardwood floors--right now we are only able to utilize about 1/2 of our small-ish house because the other half has wet finish. Living in chaos. And I'm busy with school--it's different this time around. It's ( Read more... )

We haven't even gotten our new car yet and already I'm shopping for accessories. We are getting a 2008 Nissan Altima within the next couple of weeks. We are just waiting for the transfer from the Nashville CarMax location to happen. It is soooo pretty-it has a tan cloth/suede interior (suede in a car? Who knew?), an MP3 jack (finally!), pretty ( Read more... )

My day at work yesterday consisted of the following ( Read more... )

I think I enjoy reading old LJ posts than I do actually posting new ones. Not very many interesting things going on. Surgery is still looming, but I don't know when because they took their sweet-ass time getting it sent to insurance. I'm looking forward to a personal makeover. The house has been great, we've started on some (small) projects and got ( Read more... )

Clearly I haven't posted in awhile. Lots of life changes going on. I've been having some frustrating health problems--nothing severe, which I try to stay thankful for--but more than just a little annoying. My shoulder problems from the summer have returned with a vengeance, and I really can't lift or reach for anything. Makes a day at work annoying ( Read more... )
