A MEME!!!

What Is Your Battle Cry?

Hark! Who is that, striding on the desert! It is Jadecat, hands clutching a meaty axe! She grunts ominously: "By Odin's mighty spear, I lay waste to the landscape like a river of pure piranha!!"

Real Post...

So yesterday I did something I've never done before... At 10 am I wandered to Mrs. Boss's office and told her that I wasn't feeling well and would it be too much trouble for me to go home? She said it would be fine, and looked rather shocked. (see: I've never done before... Matter of fact- in the three years (almost) that I've been here- I've called in twice).

Lesson learned: Zomig and Prednisone don't play well together. Especially if you're bordering on high blood pressure to begin with. (The blood pressure isn't a worry *yet* but we've got a thing at home now so I can keep an eye on it... bleah)

So I went home, since I was shaky, kept breaking out into a sweat, somewhat nauseous, and just in general feeling like crap. Slept for several hours and felt a wee bit better, other new meds worked to help me sleep. Hubby was home, and happy enough to play nurse for me. :)

Gotta love playing guinea pig for my neurologist's office. The idea behind the prednisone was to take it as a 'burst' (for two weeks) to get my inflammation down, and hopefully have some pain free weeks... I'm on day two and so far- my head still hurts. But I'm willing to give it a chance. At least for a couple more days. They also have me taking a new preventative med (the Elavil was NOT working for me), so we'll see how this one goes. I did tell her that unless people figure out how to control the weather- I'm going to get migraines.

Seems like prednisone is the 'do anything' med. A former roommate was prescribed it for her ulcerative colitis, a different roomie's mom took it for her health issues, even pets take it! Parent's pets Dutchess and Alex were at different times prescribed it! So... yeah.

I'm still shocked that I actually went home sick... It was needed though, I really couldn't concentrate. Today is much better than yesterday.

Local Writers!

So... Local writer peeps- Anyone interested/Available to meet up for writing tommorrow night, at either Schuler's or GW?

Hubby's working and I'm looking for something to do. :)

C'mon, you know you wanna!

Dragons!

Someone abandoned this eggie! Can you believe it? Make with the clickie love?



And my original two could use some help growing up... please?









So silly, but I want to see what happens as they 'get older'

Drama Free Thursday

In honor of popfiend's DFT post...

Things that have made this week special:

1- Writing Group on Tuesday- I got some writing in, AND got a chance to chat with friends. :)

2- My hubby- okay, he pretty much makes my life better just by existing... but yesterday he was very sweet in taking care of me when I felt like crap.

3- Leo, while he's insane and way too clever- he's also exceedingly cute and has a very adorable meow. Along those lines, Sasha napped with me yesterday, and was very soft (seriously, this cat has amazingly soft fur!), snuggly and purry. How can this not make someone feel better? Kyle is always a snuggle slut, but it's happy making.

4- I'm actually writing on a more regular basis. Considering I've been unhappy about my lack of writing- the increase is good.

5- I think this goes with 4- but I'm reading more, which does inspire more #4 and yeah...

6- "Magic Bites" by Ilona Andrews (ilona_andrews) is much fun. The main character makes me laugh, and read bits out loud to the husband. Kate Daniels is too cool, and what a mouth on her! Curran is also way cool as leader of the Shapechangers, and I like Mahon too. *grins* I'm looking forward to getting the next book, "Magic Burns."

7- My lj peeps- you are such an amazing, and talented group- I'm honored to know you.
