Ahh, life is starting to pick up again! I woke up this morning feeling worse than I have in a while and discovered that along with the pain in my mouth, it's also painful to touch the skin anywhere on my shoulders, upper back, and neck. I called my doctor and he said that the most likely cause is either an allergic reaction to the penicillin, or a bad reaction to the narcotics in Percocet. So now I'm off my antibiotics but still on painkillers, because the relief in my mouth is worth the discomfort in my skin. Hopefully ALL of the discomfort clears up soon, though.
Dad and I ordered my new laptop today and I'm VERRRRY excited about it. Dad agreed that he and Mom will pay for half of it, which makes me feel good because I still feel like I've earned and contributed to this investment, but I'm also not seeing such a huge chunk of my savings gone in one beat. It's a Fujitsu N3511 and, while I know there will be those who will scoff at me sticking with a MS-based computer, etc, I'm super stoked about it and for me, the display on this thing is worth all the rest, hands down. Anyway, now all I have to do is wait for it to get here - I'm hoping I'll have like, a second to toy around with it between birthday and camping and Ireland, but if not then it can just be my new toy for when school starts.
I'm going to get in touch with everyone tomorrow to give out final details for the Wednesday Dinner and A Movie deal, but for anyone who might see it here before I can call them, here's the skinny:
RED EYE - Auburn 17 Theater, movie starts at 8:10. I'd like for everyone to meet outside the theater (like, near where you buy tickets) around 7:45-ish, just so we have a chance to be all together and get introduced and buy tickets and find seats and stuff. After the movie, we'll all head over to Red Robin for dinner and whatnot, and I do mean dinner - I plan to have my main meal of the night at that point, and I really don't want to be the only one pigging out, so please save an appetite for then!
So yay, everything is good and I am on the mend and I can't wait for hopefully hanging out with Matt tonight and then seeing everyone tomorrow and going to Rufus on Friday and my birthday on Saturday and camping on Sunday and AHH!! Since when do I have a life?!
