Coming down
I've been exhausted the last couple of days and now I'm wondering if it's withdrawal from the steroids.
Last week, in prep for the ceilidh, I thought it would be cool to dye my hair really red (that and I was bored) - Friday, the day before the show, I had a huge allergic reaction to the dye and my head swelled up to bobble-head proportions. The irony of me with an even larger cranium is not lost on me.
I left work after I started blowing up like well-squeezed stress doll and the doctor gave me a steroid pack. It reduced my head from huge (as in "you Head, pants! now!) to just puffy and I could perform on Saturday. The ceilidh was great, terrific singing and playing and a very responsive audience.
I have had plenty of sleep since the show, but the last couple of days I've been really sleepy - then I realized that I had stopped taking the 'roids on Tuesday.
In other news, my friend Eileen did get the job as my boss's boss. It will be a little weird working for an old friend, but she's very qualified for the position and I think it will ultimately be fun to work for her.
McCrazy is not as thrilled with the news. Apparently she actually cried when she found out. Jackass.
Tomorrow we go tux hunting for the wedding, which is coming up very very soon! We've got much to do, but I think we'll be ready.
I think I'll leave my hair alone for the wedding.
