After ALL of the joint inflammation recently from dairy contamination thought it might be a good idea to take some Glucosamine for joint repair. After all the Dog is on it, and takes it twice a day in...spend a birthday. And wondering again if I should just shuck all my Western Pretense and complication and embrace the Tao. Will be signing off now for the night, as that maintenance run is coming
Finally saw the doctor about the MRI of my back. Thankfully, nothing that requires surgery or anything major, though I will have to do physical therapy for a few weeks. Back still hurts quite a bit, and I have to change position every ten minutes or so--from standing to sitting and back--to avoid the worst pain. Sleeping is still a a PITA because of it.
...was not a speedy donation like the last couple, this one dragged on and on for 17 minutes. I brought Alfy along on this one, to chauffeur me home, which was much nicer than walking to catch a bus. I finally got a hold of the people in charge of dealing with the High Prairie health complex incident last night. Assuming I don't get a letter in the next two months, then my involvement is at an end.
A. and I were making dinner (the classy lineup of the evening: hamburgers, baked beans, salad with lots of peppers, grape tomatoes for starters, and Halloween candy for dessert) when he complained for..." I said. "Maybe I should get tested right now." But they wouldn't let me since I don't really have any symptoms yet, so A. got his zithromax scripp and we left. This is going to be a fun weekend
Well, it finally happened. I suffered a depression attack at the same time as players in my online DnD game were getting uppity. The campaign is over, if not in the graceful and triumphant method of past...gamemaster to play THAT game. Not that it's a bad game; both Amber Diceless and New Gods of Mankind manage it. But it isn't the game that works well in DnD, especially not at lower level campaigns
I called my blood test results in Tuesday and even though my CRP was completely normal (keep this in mind for the rest of this entry) my white cell count and other infection indicator were up so the nurse...(or yesterday actually, but my circadian rhythm has suffered a bit from the medication as it (in addition to coughing my lungs out) makes me sleeeeeeeeepy) I haver actually felt almost alive again...
Or is it just the whole, I have a new job and a puppy and am trying to do a LOT more than I'm used to which is making me VERY tired and therefore EXTREMELY emotional? It suddenly caught up with me just... love this new job, and the people are great...it is very similar to what I was doing before :) I like Coors...excuse me....MillerCoors....and I hope that I can find a permanant position there.
Okay so I know I need to get back on the wagon. I don't want to use the word DIET anywhere. I just need to focus again on the healthy. And you know..when you do "fall off the wagon" it's like you literally...too. I figure.. I"d eat the soup..and that will likely mean I eat only ONE slice of pizza instead of 2.. 2.5... 3. The biggest problem, as always.. ist hat exercize thing. How do I do it again? UGH
Blech. Need I elaborate? I got nothing accomplished today, which really ticks me off. I love teaching, so missing it is bad enough but when I have to stay in bed all day and do absolutely nothing it...it and I have no idea what I'm going to use for a visual aid...meep... *yawn* Maybe I'll go watch Granada...EMPT or something that makes me feel less like I'm going to crawl into a hole and die..
