update, cuz i'm bored of being at home
spent yesterday on bedrest. after a day of it, i know i will definitely shoot myself if i have to do it for any extended period of time. (well, it technically should have been slightly longer, but ... ya know. work, and all that.) thankfully this time it was just long enough for my blood pressure to settle - funny things happen when your blood pressure decides to just suddenly, you know, go away. apparently i was quite entertaining for a while, though, so ... at least there's that. i'm under strict orders to avoid juices and sugary stuff for a day or two (not that they'll hurt me; i'll just feel a lot worse when my blood sugar comes back down) and to make sure i eat plenty of meat every day. fun (or not). ugh, i just can't believe how unbelieveably much it sucked to have to lay around all day yesterday - it sounds like lots of fun until you don't have a choice, i guess. but ... brandon comes home tonight for christmas, which is awesome. i can't wait til he's home for good - only a couple of weeks now, so that's pretty exciting. and megan is the coolest person in the world for giving me TONS of baby clothes, which will certainly come in handy. other than that, this holiday season is turning out to be pretty low-key ... basically meaning that i'm too broke to really buy anyone christmas presents, and i'm working open to close new years eve and (i think) new years day - i figure that since i don't have the money to participate in anything else that's going on (not that i could really do much even if i did have the cash), i might as well stay at work and (hopefully) make a little extra. it's okay, though, by this time next year, my life will be full of fun and partying once again :) or ... something like that. for now i guess i should channel my boredom into something productive ... like laundry and cleaning. unless anyone wants to come over and do that for me? ...anyone? oh, well, at least it'll give me something to do.
