I don’t entirely understand. I had to steal them from her before I went to, um, dinnerbreakfast. She’d hunkered down in three or four pair by the bedroom door and gone into ambush mode. You know how that is; pupils dilated, ears forward, tail whipping. Death on four legs for anything smaller than her. Then, [...]
I’ve had trouble falling asleep for the last several days; my legs are unsettled, and it’s starting to disturb me. I don’t think my diet has particularly changed. Nothing unusual hurts. Lying in bed, however, I want to clench everything from hip to toe. I want to jog. My legs, like the rest of me, [...]
I’ve been off this particular medication for a couple weeks, now, and I feel good about it. Slightly reluctant and nervous, but good. I don’t like being on medication. It’s hard to tell what might be symptoms and what aren’t. I came in to work seriously late twice in the last week — but was [...]
Flu, for just over a week now. Every couple hours, fever comes, fever goes. I can hear my eyes move. I know exactly how weird that sounds. I can’t sleep more than about two hours at a time. I can’t get back to sleep, because everything hurts. I feel like I’ve been beaten. Chad and [...]
Shada woke me up by being extra bitey. It’s usually her delicate way of saying “get up and feed me you lazy sumbitch,” and, as usual, she already had food in her dish. Bah. Did discover that she’s been tossing her cookies around the apartment. Current suspect is the grilled chicken I gave her from [...]
I’ve had a sinus infection or flu-type-thing since last week. Haven’t felt right since Saint Patrick’s day, when Chad and I went out and I got a little too drunk. I guess that weakened my immune system enough to let this whatever-it-is in. Had another trying round with the therapist today. Stuff that’s apparently bothered [...]
I cracked pretty hard Friday. Utter incompetence. Left work. Called shrink. Had late-notice session. Came home, took nap. Had dinner. Started to shut off my mind by playing WoW when Tommy called. A few from Boa’s party insisted I stop being a wussy-ass and go to the party. I did, and I’m glad I did. [...]
I’ve been sleeping all weekend. Meant to go out to Cookeville to visit family Saturday, but “just lay down for a minute” has been hard to resist. One hour up, two back in bed. Also, I’ve been treating Raisin Bran Crunch as a snack food. I should get back on my diet wagon. I only [...]
I need to get over it and learn to adapt. I had a good run of accepting change, but I’ve fallen into a rut again. I notice it mostly at work; I’d rather read about perl minutiae that I’ll probably never use than have to learn something new. I want to specialize, to find a [...]
Selling the house is getting closer. More aware of it. This last week has been stressful. It doesn’t feel like it’s been so directly, but I can tell it is by my reactions to things. I can see the symptoms and the cause, but the connection is only inferred. Sue did most of her moving [...]
