I am very glad tomorrow is Friday. This has been a painfully long week. Unfortunately, it's also been the sort of week where everything takes five times longer than it should, other people are not doing their jobs, and unwanted interruptions keep rearing their ugly heads, which basically means I'm still somewhere in the middle of Tuesday's to-do ( Read more... )

Today I spent many hours at the dentist getting impressions and such for them to order my permanent crown, then got to go to the ceramics guy and look at lots of little tooth color swatches. I'm apparently a difficult match; my dentist couldn't match my teeth with what he had in the office, and then the ceramics guy needed to try like fifteen ( Read more... )

I finally feel back in the swing of things this week, after the whole holiday, travel, plague-recovery thing. I have real food in the fridge, which I actually have been cooking (though my stomach is rather startled at the sudden reintroduction of fruits and vegetables into my diet). Also, toiling away like a little worker bee, and while most of ( Read more... )

A week and a half ago, I woke up and discovered I'd put my back out somehow in my sleep. That lasted all of last week, which meant I mostly worked from the couch with my office phone forwarded to my blackberry and a pile of remotes within easy reach. By Friday I was mostly functional. Sunday, I screwed my back up again. Monday the PMS kicked in, ( Read more... )

I just realized it's been a while since I've posted. Things have just been so busy, between the trip to Georgia and then coming back and playing catch up on a million and one things. No rest for the wicked ( Read more... )

My cough still lingers, in typical style (I can never get rid of a cough quickly), but other than that, I'm feeling pretty good. I'm finally adjusting to this strange dental piece I'm wearing, which makes eating a tad easier, though I'm hoping this won't mean a return to old eating habits, since I've managed to drop 7 pounds since the oral surgery ( Read more... )

Not really. But I'm tired and everything hurts, and it seemed seasonally appropriate. I spent most of yesterday and all of the morning running around like a crazy person finishing my Christmas shopping for my local friends. This is because my roommate thought it would be brilliant to have our December Sunday dinner (when we do our traditional gift ( Read more... )

Am in danger of coughing up some vital internal organs. Feel fine other than that, but it's small consolation when you periodically start hacking hard enough to see stars ( Read more... )

How is it possible, after spending a week on antibiotics and most of the holiday weekend sitting on the couch or in front of my computer doing work, to be sick? I made one short foray to the grocery store, but other than that, I've had no contact with people. Where the hell did the germs come from? Gah! I have a cough and I'm headachy, and also ( Read more... )

A day late and a dollar short... I realize everyone did this days and days ago, but I spent most of last week napping on the couch after my run-in with the oral surgeon on Tuesday and so I'm behind with just about everything, Live Journal included. As for the tooth experience, it went fairly well. Not much in the way of pain, just sinus headaches ( Read more... )
