Good morning?

[jadecat]

So I opened this window some time ago, and then never got around to posting. Will do so nowish.

The state of the Anne... Tired. Ooooh, shocker! And a secret- when sleeping, I snore. Hubby has gotten to the point where he's worried about me. So I tell my neurologist's NP last night. Adding in the fact that I'm not a mouth breather/snorer. This leads her to deciding that a sleep study might be good, to rule out apnea. Yippee... *bland face* I am so excited... Eh, but if it helps me to sleep better, I guess it's worth it, right?

Let's see, oh, and she DID give me samples of my Zomig, which should see me through until I can get my prescription filled. Though I'm still going to call my insurance company and complain. A lot. We're also going to switch my preventative- again. Since the Pristiq isn't working she wants to switch me to Prozac. *ponders* I'm not terribly thrilled with this, but she wants to try it. If it helps, I'll take it, but I've heard a lot of conflicting things about Prozac.

This morning didn't seem to want to start well. I didn't want to get out of bed, but Sasha was yelling for breakfast, and Kyle was giving me the 'needta go OUT' look. Tempting as it was to take Sasha out and feed Kyle, I did the reverse. ;) After all my 'going to work' prep was done I was leaving a minute or so later than usual, and was running down the stairs as someone was running up. It was hubby!! He got out of work a tad early (meaning his report to the nurse taking over his patients must have gone quickly). So I got to talk to him for a minute, and get a kiss or two. :) Most definitely improved my day.

Now I'm at work and bored... Bored and tired is not good. I have a couple things to do (which I've been slowly working on), but yeah. Of course, I did open this window at 8:23 am, and it's now 10:16, fun to see what time it will be when I actually post it... Not much else to say. so I leave you with an article and some dragons.



LONDON (Reuters) - Magpies can recognize themselves in a mirror, highlighting the mental skills of some birds and confounding the notion that self-awareness is the exclusive preserve of humans and a few higher mammals.

I just think this is way too cool. Just goes to show that animals aren't as dumb as some humans thought they were.




And an eggie that zen_kitty is holding on for me, until I have room. (Which would be about now.. you going to be around tonight zen_kitty?)



These two have been abandoned... I don't need a FOURTH red female, nor another old vine female...

One of my colleagues has sleep apnea and got the breathing machine thing, and she said that it makes all the difference in her energy level and has tremendously helped the way that she feels.

Same with my father. He has pretty serious sleep apnea for years and the machine has changed his life.

I've heard really good things... I'm hoping that if that's what it is, then I can get a handle on things. :)

They're doing a lot of research on corvids - crows and their relatives - that seems to show a pretty good deal of intelligence, including tool-making. Lots of fascinating stuff observed.

I think, when it comes down to it, we're going to find that sentience is a scale, rather than a yes/no proposition.

[jadecat.livejournal.com]

I think the sliding scale just makes more sense.

I do think it's neat that 'bird brains' are smarter than we thought. ;)

I'll be home tonight after 8pm. I'll be glad to see that little guy go to his new home. :o)

Does the Mac have the F5 function quick refresh key capability? If not, perhaps we should do this on your PC, so you can have the page all set up and refresh over and over again until he shows up. *grins*

[jadecat.livejournal.com]

Though, it will all depend on if the server is in place... *laughs*

And no, the Mac doesn't have the F5 thing... but I tend to use the HP at home anyway. *laughs* It has my games on it.

[zen-kitty.livejournal.com]

Hey, it's back up AND on the new server. I've been enjoying seeing the message change on the page throughout the afternoon.

[jadecat.livejournal.com]

Well hey, lookie there... *laughs*

I'm not a mouth breather... But I sleep with my mouth open (still breathing through my nose), and I snore a lot... Sometimes I wake myself up with my snoring!

[jadecat.livejournal.com]

*grins* My husband does that sometimes. Me? it seems to be a soft palate/sinus issue... I dunno, but I hope this sleep study helps me find out!

[imperfectmanx.livejournal.com]

I snore too. In fact sometimes it's so bad that I wake myself up :P Very embarrassing.

[jadecat.livejournal.com]

I've never woken myself up... but I have chased hubby from the bed... :(

What do you normally do when you have migraines? I almost always have to go get a shot at the hospital but I'm trying to find ways to avoid it. I tried Topamax and that was horrible.

I feel like I don't comment enough. I'm sorry. :(

[jadecat.livejournal.com]

I tried Topamax too, and it was not good... My 'rescue' meds currently are Zomig and Darvocet (though Zomig is really the one that really get rid of the headache, the Darvocet just kind of delays it).

Don't worry about commenting- I know you've got a lot going on right now. :) I trust that you'll comment when something I write strikes your comment fancy. ;)

[(Anonymous)]

I can't get Darvocet, I'm at the mercy of other people, it really sucks and I don't have many people to rely on. :/

I haven't heard a lot about Zomig, I hope it works well.
If you ever need to talk, let me know. :)
