Baldr has been sick for the past few days. I won't go into detail, but suffice it to say, the yard needed some cleaning. So yesterday Matt and I cleaned up the front and back yard, washed out Baldr's kennel, and cleaned the garbage and recycling bins from the kitchen. THEN WE WASHED OUR HANDS AND HAD LUNCH. So I suppose we got a lot done in ( Read more... )

For those of you following along at home, I got over the actual bug in one day. I had to go into work Friday and Saturday because they would be understaffed without me, but I was dehydrated (I lost 7 or more pounds), starving, though all I could eat was crackers in small quantities, and exhausted. I won't bore you with the details, but today was ( Read more... )

Well, I've now proven that whatever Matt has isn't food poisoning. It's five days later and now I've got it. Sadly, I'm not the only person who needed to call in sick at work, so I'm guessing they're a little frantic. Over the course of today, I've graduated from expelling yellow bile from both ends to only one end, and I am now able to eat ( Read more... )

A side effect of visiting horses yesterday is that this morning I found a tick in my hair. I was idly running my hands through my hair when I discovered it climbing around on my head. It's oddly nostalgic of when my cousin had lice of DOOM and I got them, full sized, from her. Well, I pulled out this lump from my hair and looked at it, and it ( Read more... )

I move into a new house and immediately my life gets exciting again! I drove up to Seattle Friday night with Trix and Beth. We stayed at Ross's, giggled a lot, ate delicious food (both made by Ross and acquired at a doughnut shop), and each of us had a separate room to sleep in. (Holy crap, Ross and Pen live in a grown-up apartment!) Saturday ( Read more... )

I've been in my pjs for two days. I've watched a lot of movies, slept a lot, and eaten a lot of tortillas. I think I'll be better by Monday. But oof, when I woke up this morning I felt like death.

( Ok, here's the TMI bit. )

It didn't hurt nearly as much as I thought it would. I've always heard that piercing cartilage more painful than just getting fleshy bits pierced, but it was a momentary pain not much worse than the other four I got. Actually, it hurt less than the one that the lady mangled when she couldn't get the piercing gun unstuck from my ear. It sort of ( Read more... )

I got slide tackled by Aunt Flo last night. Then I proceeded to feel queasy and lightheaded all through folk dancing. I woke up this morning feeling... moreso. So I'm staying home watching Buffy, but I just ran out of episodes on this disc. What to do? What to do?
