Let's not talk about yesterday at work, other than it was a truly crazy day and I left last night utterly drained and exhausted. I lost my ability to brain somewhere around 5pm, and by the time I finally got in my car I'd started losing the ability to talk because I was that fried and I'd been fighting a migraine all day. (While at work I took ibuprofen, acetaminophen, promethazine, tizanidine, and Zomig to try and kill it. The combination helped but made me dopey as hell for about 45 minutes.)
On the up side, I came home and snuggled with my iWife for a bit and then we watched Graceland, which she has gotten me into (have any of you gotten into it?) and then I crashed until the dog woke Morgan and me in the middle of the night.
Today is a bit crazy, though. I'm working this morning, and then I have juuuuust enough time to go home, walk the dog, and run out again to get Botox followed by lunch, then Morgan and I have our session with Anna the dog trainer. We haven't been working with Buddy as much as we should have, which sucks, but I have had some success getting him to stop pulling on the leash when we're out walking--as long as he's not caught a scent or sight of a bird. Then all bets are off.
I've also started calling a couple areas the "all you can eat dog salad buffet" because we can't pass them without him stopping to eat the grass. I have no idea why he does this so much, but as long as it's not hurting him I figure it's okay. Lucky never ate grass, so this is new to me, but apparently a lot of dogs like it.
Tomorrow is also busy. My iWife and I have to leave for the airport around 4am. I'll get home in time to sleep for maybe an hour before I have to go get the MRI of my cervical spine, and then I can come home, relax, take the dog out and then go see Dr. F for follow up blood work from the anemia thing. Then I go to work.
Fortunately, today is quiet. Unfortunately, my brain appears to still be fried from yesterday (really, most of this week) because I'm losing words and tripping over words frequently enough that it's really bothering me. But there's not much I can do about it except stay quiet until I feel more awake and less zombified.
As an example of my lack of brain today: I couldn't find my phone wallet before I left for work. Searched all over, even woke up my iWife briefly to see if I'd left it in the guest room, but no luck. Finally decided to leave without it and just deal, although this meant I couldn't hit Starbucks. In the car while driving to the highway, I stuck my hand into the middle section of my purse to see if I had cash...and pulled out my wallet. *headdesks* I could have sworn I'd checked the purse multiple times...
At least tomorrow's Friday, right?
