Mother Knows Best

Jul 28, 2009 22:56


Today, upon informing my mother that my dizzy attacks have been kind of bad again, she told me I should cut down on sugar.

After telling her that my jaw had really been bothering me all day, she said, "I hope you're not coming down with something."

Yes, we were discussing the same dizzy spells that I have had almost constantly since August of 2007 and yes, we were talking about the jaw that clicks every time I open it and has been known in the past to lock in place. But okay, yes, of course I'll take my vitamin C and stop eating dessert because that will certainly relieve me of my spinning head and temporomandibular joint disorder.

I spent a good chunk of my day curled in a ball on the floor behind the button counter trying to get rid of my pregnant lady back cramps (it's going to be really funny when I get those for real . . . ), knitting a hat, and contemplating grad school. I ate one of the most delicious brownies of all time during lunch. It was from Boudin. I want to eat their delicious brownies forever. I also sold $200 worth of yarn and found the most beautiful fabric that has fairies and mushrooms and flowers and that sounds a lot more hippie than it actually is, but I love it and Lulu is going to make a skirt for me with it. Aside from the parts of the day when I was dizzy, wondering why my jaw hurt every time I swallowed, and my back felt like it ought to be amputated, today was pretty good.

Drea's going to teach me to ride a bike tomorrow!

friends, family, ouch
