Christ. I spent the morning at the blood lab doing a 3 hour glucose tolerance test. Took 2 arms and 5 sticks total, plus a good amount of digging, to do all 4 vials they needed for the day (mind you, 2 of those vials were taken together off the first stick). I feel like a human pincushion, and the inside of my left elbow is so bruised and sore ( Read more... ) -

God, today is kicking my ass. This whole week has, honestly. Daylight savings is the work of the devil--I have never had so much trouble getting out of bed in the morning, not even in the dead of winter ( Read more... ) -
yeah, it's me
Ok, so yeah. I know I haven't been around at all in about 3 months. Here's the short version of what you missed ( Read more... ) -

Home from work on bedrest as per dr.'s orders, until further notice. My back went out in a spectacular blaze of glory on Sunday, necessitating a trip to the ER. I'm waiting to get approved for an MRI, by my insurance, and then we'll know more.
Pray that it won't require surgery to fix, ok? -

I went to get blood drawn this morning, since I go to see the endo next week. Normally, on my worst day, they have to dig around a bit for a vein in my left arm. What can I say--I'm a chubby girl with deep veins, covered by an extra layer of fat. But it's genetic, too. My mom also has shitty veins--the one in her arm actually goes sideways ( Read more... ) -
Reading challenge, 2008. Books 34-42
Well, with the break from WoW I had, I read like it was my job. Here's the list:
34) The Dragon Prince, by Melanie Rawn. 576 pages. This is the first of a trilogy, and a re-read, though I had not read it in about twelve years or more. This is, simply, how I like my fantasy: magic, intrigue, engrossing story-lines, interwoven sub-plots, ( Read more... ) -
Did you hear that?
That was a sigh of relief. From me. Got results back from Gwen's tests (she went and stayed with the vet part of the day yesterday), and she's maintaining at home the progress she made during her week's vet stay the end of last month ( Read more... ) -
Reading challenge, books 20-33, and a kitty!
I have a TON of catching up to do on posting this--I've been reading a lot, and am so far a bit ahead of schedule for my goal. I think I may bump my goal for next year, but we'll cross that bridge when we come to it.
Before I jump into what I've been reading, I did want to give y'all the heads up. Gwen's still home, still doing ok. Still eating, ( Read more... )
