So, I'm thankful to say that, at least for our area, the hurricane wasn't nearly as bad as we thought. We had a lot of rain (and some of it's still sitting around), but no trees fell over, and in my mom's apartment we didn't lose power or water. My dad's house lost power, and so their basement pumps stopped working. I hope they came back on/they ( Read more... )

to actually feel good. Today was the best day I've had in a long time, even though nothing particularly amazing happened. Took a test on the French Revolution that I was freaking out over- and it was EASY. French is going well, math test tomorrow looks like it's going to be a piece of cake, and we're watching a movie in Spanish that I actually can ( Read more... )

so I haven't really been posting. Most of my life consists of school, schoolwork, etc., and, of course, trying to finish the novel in NaNoWriMo (which I am extremely behind on). I've been working on a lot of things... guitar, piano, Spanish/French... I'm trying to get myself to start studying Japanese again. I'm trying to get back into all of my " ( Read more... )

Okay, so. Had an MRI this morning. Not that bad of an experience, though not one I want to do again. It was actually pretty comfy and I almost fell asleep (and having the radio was a bonus) but the noises of the machine got REALLY annoying after a while. Mildly uncertain about what I want the results to be, crossing my fingers for good news... we' ( Read more... )

 Well.. of course things didn't want to be simple. Went in for the second scan... and it came back abnormal. (Though I do wonder at that, because wouldn't everybody's brain work differently, so how can there be a "normal?") So here comes the complicated part. This Wednesday, I have to go in and get my braces taken off. Then we're going to get me an ( Read more... )

Tomorrow is Monday. I am going to wake up tomorrow morning, and then not go to sleep again until Tuesday night, excepting a brief nap in the hospital Tuesday morning ( Read more... )

 Things have been a bit hectic the last few days. Thursday night had therapist appointment, and emailed my mom about the identity issues. That was uncomfortable to do, and I also spent a lot of time discussing things with my dad- neither he nor my mom have said that they're going to try and persuade me otherwise, but... trying to explain why I want ( Read more... )

Ugh. Fanfiction is not being kind to me. I'm trying to rewrite one with a better plot, better characterization, just... better. Except my brain doesn't really want to plan a new version, it just wants to summarize what I *had* and won't take no for an answer. So while my subconscious beats off those thoughts with a pointy stick, I consciously ( Read more... )

 Well, I had a lovely wake-up call this morning: two strange men standing over me and telling me to stand up and get on a stretcher ( Read more... )

Wow, I've been neglecting this place. A lot of stuff's been up these past few days. Body felt like crap Monday- not sure if it was the medicine or if I was sick- I think I'm a little sick, regardless. Sniffly/sore throat. Body was all sore, with headaches, nausea and random hot/pain flashes throughout the day/night. I'm still sweating a lot at ( Read more... )
