I've been having a lot of trouble sleeping lately. I get tired and I go to bed, and I lie there for hours with my mind whizzing along over inconsequential things. Tuesday night I spent at least forty-five minutes mentally composing blistering letters to the judges on So You Think You Can Dance about how awful the judging is this year ( Read more... ) -

I have questions to answer, good questions. I haven't forgotten, I've just been trying to finish something that had to be done post-haste. I managed, but it is now very long past my bed time and I must sleep. I have Responsibilities in the morning, can't sleep in like I'd like to ( Read more... ) -

Say a big wah-fucking-hoo for antibiotics. I am feeling almost human again, after spending Friday mostly asleep and getting some azithromycin. The bad news is that I will be unable to drink on my birthday, because I will be taking antibiotics and alcohol makes them not work so well. But hey, at least I won't be coughing up phlegm and wandering ( Read more... )
