Almost at the gate!
I’m just polishing off my evening stuff.. maybe another half hour-full hour to go. I think I’m going ot treat myself to some ice cream from mighty walgreens on the way home. They have phish food and cherry garcia now!! (Special interest note to Zoe…. still ony 5 varieties, but the choices are mucho better!!)
I’m feeling that it’s time to start my decompression… my headache is a dull throb, I think the migrane aspect never blossomed, although it seemed that it might for a while there.
got a headache, not a migraine, but an owie and an irritant, to be sure. I need a good long soak.
good day, good friends, good food, good grief.
Well, I got into work an hour an a half ago, and still haven’t managed to accomplish anything of significant value.
Lunch time already, and I ordered a big honking veggie & cheese sub on wheat, extra oregano, no onions. yummy. Will I get to eat it before going out tonight for Thai? Probably not.
The scabble game continues, with Cider crushing me soundly beneath her well-heeled, yet remarkably sexy, shiny boot. I have 35 points, and she has 54, and it’s my turn, just now. My great word? As. as in, “as in.” I’m painted into a corner, and cursing my devil tiles. not much room to move!
Sleep Study –
I’d say it went well. (And it did, I’m not fibbing.) Air mask definitely was an experience, and I’ll be getting one to use at night, at least before I have surgery done, and possibly after, depending on how it goes. It was sort of weird, much like wearing scuba gear, but more comfortable.
Unusual words heard at the study- Nurse using the word scamper. as in “Shoo, now! Scamper off, and play” This from a woman about 23. Silly but cool.
I have camp songs on the brain. “She’ll be comin’ ’round the mountain when she comes”
Wha? What seeded that?
in response to eebomb –
the sky is pinkish-orange and the wind is blowing form the east, off the coast.
i want some ice cream, too.
I still have contact gel from EKG sensors on my shoulder.
Newton is not Sleepy.
Scotto is not sleepy.
I recently added a scrabble program to my palm to polish my skills.
the a/c whirs with a soothing hum.
I need to vacuum
I’m freezing apple juice and orange juice into homemade popsicles in my icebox.
I’m going to eat an apple juice pop right now.
I had a tasty breakfast of scrambled eggs, home fries, and melon.
Newton missed me terribly, and in now being all lovey.
i miss walking around Boston Common
life is an amazing thing.
surfing is incredibly soothing, even if you’re no good at it
Today’s program was brought to you by the letter K, the color Green, and the Circle!
what is happening where you are?
Launching in 5, 4 3,…
See you kids later… off to taco bell then my study.
I hope the sensor-goop they use doesn’t get weird in my beard.
Gnite! Love, and all that sweet stuff.
🙂
words that describe my current mindset.
huh?
Bleah?
Zoinks!
hammina-hammina-hammina
in that order.
Just slurped down a tasty cherry slushie. I wish takeout made grilled cheese.
I’m sad that nobody wants to play email scrabble with me. 🙁
I’m happy that I’ve been fed. 🙂
I’m surprised that I’ve formed a crush already. Silly Scotto. Gives me something to think about, though. 🙂 or :0
I wonder how Newt’s going to deal with me heading out to the sleep study after work… It’ll get dark and light without me coming home.
I’m flattered that I’ve gotten so many new friends the last week or so… I don’t know if it’s interests or random, but It’s pretty spiff.
Why scotto wants to correct his apnea.
1. – it might get rid of my migraines.
2. – I won’t be as tired
3. – less risk of stroke and high blood pressure
4- might actually lose weight
5-increase cognitive function. get the brain working more!
Even after using CPAP for an average of only four hours a night, patients are more alert, with improvements in memory, mood, concentration, and health. A 1997 study indicated that CPAP therapy may even reduce the risks of motor vehicle and domestic and work-related accidents associated with sleepiness. Improvement even in serious conditions such as hypertension and heart failure have been observed, although there are no well-designed studies as yet to indicate if any of these devices reduce heart problems or other disorders associated with sleep apnea.
gotta do it, no matter how stupid the thing looks/ feels, I guess
Going in for my next sleep study tomorrow night. Bah. Humbug, but good hooray, too.
Cpap mask will be on, they say it’s like sleeping in a wind tunnel.
Finally got insurance approval for another test, so hopefully, after this one, I’ll know if I can go under the knife and get patched up.
I’m not nervous, I just want to get it over with.
Got back form the everway game… and watching fight club.
Never did get around to lunch, but had supper, 1/2 of a mushroom & black olive pizza.
I need to start packing healthy food to eat.
I think I’m going to the Zoo tomorrow, and say hi to all the animals in jail. It’s been a loooong time since I’ve been to the zoo, but I was talking about one of my first zoo memories with a buddy, and I got a weird urge to go and see the lions. See if it brings anything odd out… I don’t think it will. I’ve got to ask Robby if he’d rather do Zoo than art museum…maybe art museum next weekend? I seem to have a stronger and more overpowering urge to go to the zoo.
this is where I’m headed – http://www.palmbeachzoo.org/ sooner or later.
Robb, maybe the little freaky monkey is a tamarin? http://www.palmbeachzoo.org/tamarin.htm
it’s freaky looking!
Godzilla!!!
so i just got done watching Godzilla 2000, it pretty much rocked. I saw it with Robb, it was fun. aside from the peanut gallery that would not shut up, I had a good time…
Foodstuffs eaten today –
Cheese pizza, water, big ol’ coke, Hershey bar pie
pizza day! Make mine cheese with pineapple plesae!
Couldn’t sleep.
Ate some sharp cheddar cheese and crackers, water.
Changed my wallpaper to pretty apples. 🙂
Feeling sort of dopey… Time to try sleep again.
Zowie.
Wacky day yesterday… was at work until about 2am, but I enjoyed it. interesting puzzles to solve, and I was entertained throughout the evening. Just a FYI. There is no such thing as ‘political Rate’ mailings in the USA anymore. I researched that for a good 5 hours yesterday on my own time. Ack. The downside of working when the Post Office is closed, and with it the help desk.
What did I eat yesterday? I forget. Chinese tofu somesuch, not memorable. More spicy stuff next time.
I wonder how many folks out there(in here?) write for other folks besides themselves. Some journals are pure entertainment for me, and others seem to be more of a logbok of ‘I had a foot cramp today’.
I personally do a mix, now that I know people are out there reading it, but it’s mostly for my own enjoyment. (As any hobby should be, I feel. if it was work, I’d try to get paid to do it.)
Does burger king always smell bad? the guys at work brought it in, and its gross. Like it was predigested. peeyew.
Today’s food, cherry slushie, half-eaten onion rings,(before being grossesd out by the aroma.)
Burger King an appetite suppressant? Who knew?
No good toys, either. Nutbunnies.
ate hungry Howies pineapple pizza leftovers today and fresh yesterday. mucho water. got soda, because water is busted, sorry mely.
drinking water tonight.
