work stuff and head stuff
1. I took Tuesday as a sick day due to a migraine, but didn't put in for sick time because I also worked yesterday and today which are normally my days off. So I figure I made up the time I lost.
I'm still liking my new job, my co-workers and teammates and things, I'm liking the ability to feel confident in what I'm doing and know these are skills I have earned over a period of time. I'm liking that my co-workers are also seeing in me what I'm seeing in myself, and recognize that I'm going to be one of the fastest to ramp up out of the four new people on this team. (I am not, also, the only one having worries about one of our co-workers, which relieves my mind a little.)
We had a tabletop drill today that went okay, which was why I went into work, and we're having another one next Friday so I'll have to go in for that. Next Thursday is the company meeting, but it's also my Botox day and I can't reschedule it again, so I'll miss part of the meeting while getting poison injected into my head. I figure I'll get to campus, set up the webcast, leave for the Botox, return and watch the rest of it. This also means I'll be around to help the folks in the MOC if shit goes to hell. I just don't remember when the appointment is, but I'll call Monday and ask.
I finally, finally picked up my second pair of glasses today, and I quite like them, but I'm disappointed on the tint - it's much lighter than last time and I really can't see a difference when I have them on versus colors when I have them off. But whatever, they're fine glasses and next year I'll try to do better on getting them darker tints or something. They also (and this is what took forever) have a little magnetic clip-on sunglasses thing, so now I don't burn my retinas when driving in sun. Not that we're going to have much sun here in a while, but I live in hope of next April/May.
The suck: Earlier headache has grown into a migraine. I've taken a dose of oxycodone but it's not doing much. I may take another dose in a bit and hope that knocks it out. Otherwise, if that doesn't do it and sleep doesn't do it and it gets worse or not better, I may be looking at an ER visit and I am so over those lately. Plus I have a busy weekend so I'd miss out on something, possibly with Morgan missing out too since he'd have to get me there and home. This is not fantastic timing, people. Head, are you listening? Probably not.
