Riley: Oh, yeah. Sorry 'bout last time. Heard I missed out on some fun. Xander: Oh yeah, fun was had. Also frolic, merriment and near-death hijinks.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

What are you watching?

Last week's Numb3rs, at least in theory. I kind of fell asleep though

Packing. And doing laundry at the same time. Makes it complicated.

Cats are suspicious.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I just cancelled my plans for today.

Pity me.

But when the slurred speech thing is happening, socialising is hard. Tiring.

I hate my head.

ita, that sucks. I'm sorry.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I pity you, ita.

My plans for the day were writing a paper, with a break for a meeting at 2. I just got back from the meeting and haven't written shit yet. Oops. At least it only has to be short, and it's not due until Tuesday.

Currently, in an extension of the TiVo-as-to-do-list thing, I'm listening to unplayed songs on iTunes.

I'm not mathy, ho.

I really want to work this into conversation now.

Hey Jesse! What's the fifth root of 243?


Amy - Nov 20, 2005 11:45:57 am PST #5802 of 10006
Because books.

ita, is the slurred speech due to the headache, or the meds for it?

Either way, that sucks.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Oh ita, I'm sorry. Take care of yourself.

I am bummed that Nilly is gone as I wanted to agree with her here:

I usually find most people prettier in face-space than in pictures. Then again, I've never met any actors or people who make their living by being pretty in pictures, so there may be also that.

There are those few who really shine in photos, but most people are so much more attractive F2F.

Went to the park this morning. I thought it would knock out both kids, but Isaac is still up. Oh well. I need to grade, so I'm hoping he can keep himself happy in his play pen.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

But when the slurred speech thing is happening, socialising is hard. Tiring.

ita, is this something you've experienced before with migranes and/or concussion? 'Cause my first reaction is seek medical attention. Now.

Thanks, guys.

The slurred speech either means I'm having a pain-free migraine, or it's something post concussive. I can talk around it, and do (it takes more concentration to make sure my tongue goes where I want it), but it's pretty exhausting.

They've done the head scan already. There's notthing more for them to do. I'm pretty sure it's post-concussive -- I'd have remembered this from before.
