Yeah, I've got nothing

Oct 02, 2007 13:45

TV stuff:

Last night's Chuck was waaaaay to slapsticky, and had the flaily sense of a show desperately trying to figure out its tone. Hopefully they nail that down soon.
I want to point all Heroes-watching people to laurashapiro's extremely smart post on last night's episode.
I caught some Journeyman last night while folding laundry, and while the show itself ( Read more... )

heroes, chuck

Oh, honey, I had no idea! You seemed so composed on Saturday, even with the work insanity.

::hugs::

Please let me know if there's anything I can do for you.

But Saturday was fun! I seem to be having the most issues dealing with little frustrations and pieces of bad news--and, apparently, John and Aeryn's fictional tragic romance--in a proportional way.

And thank you, but I don't think there is much to do. (Besides, obviously, making whiny LJ entries.) This has been unusual enough, and accompanied by enough other weird things going on with my cycle, that I'm actually going to talk to my doctor about it.

Yeah, that does sound as if something's up. I hope the doctor has useful info for you. ::pets you::

So what I'm hearing is that you need more fun and less bad news. That seems like a winning strategy regardless of what the doctor comes up with.

Good luck with your parents! Meep.

I finally had to admit that my bad moods were out of proportion and probably hormonally induced when I found myself in a blind rage and ready to divorce my husband over a wooden spoon that had been insufficiently rinsed before being placed in the dishwasher. Cutting out almost all caffeine, though annoying, helped tremendously. Calcium supplements are also supposed to help, but unfortunately my brain is so squishy I can never remember to take them.

Also, I'm just getting into Farscape S3--I just watched, I think, Episode 5? the one with the nurses--so I guess it's good to know that I'd better be prepared for tears at the end!

They will pry the coffee from my cold dead hands, but I've heard that about calcium too, and it's probably not a bad idea to try to increase my calcium intake for other reasons as well.

I've made some pretty significant lifestyle changes this summer--lots of regular exercise after several years of being totally sedentary, and managed to lose 10 pounds in two months in a way I hadn't planned, and since my level of activity has always affected my cycle, I suspect those things are not unrelated. But my doctor should hopefully be able to shed some light.
