askye, I don't know anything about the meds you're already taking or how they'd react with OTC sleeping meds but I hope things improve quickly for you. Not being able to sleep is right up there with bouncing checks in the ICK department.
They did "stick fighting" at PT (that would be physical training) this morning and Joe smacked into his buddy's elbow, leading him to take a bite out of his own lip. He also hurt the knee that he had surgery on 2 years ago.
And here I was under the impression that PT was supposed to HELP one heal, not cause new injuries or re-injure. Much heal~ma and no surgery ~ma to Joe, Stephanie.
I'm trying to find my elusive motivation. No, really. It's most likely not on the internets but this seemed like the best place to check.
You know, I think a few months ago I posted something here about how no one wears slips anymore....
What's Sexy Now? The Slip
"We're beginning to see a new generation discover the slip," said Marshal Cohen, the chief retail analyst for the NPD Group, a market research firm. "For now slips are an undercultural movement by women shopping in more affluent stores." Most, he added, are under 40, women who as recently as a year ago would no more have thought of buying a slip than of wearing a hoop skirt. Because the trend is only now emerging, sales figures are not available, but Mr. Cohen predicted a measurable spike in slip sales by spring.
Huh. Maybe I should start a SlipNews blog....
I take Lamictal and Seroquel at night. Would it be bad if I took an over the counter sleep medicine.
I'd talk to your doctor first. Since Seroquel is somewhat sedating, adding another drug into the mix that also slows down your CNS might be too much. Then again, it might be fine -- but I'd check with a medical professional on that.
Ouch! Poor Joe.
Askye, you've been doing really well, so please remind yourself that this is, in the grand scheme of things, a small (if exceedingly annoying for you) slip. And, what Teppy said.
It's so annoying, this lack of coverage/high cost for medicines.
VW, excellent letter.
Most, he added, are under 40, women who as recently as a year ago would no more have thought of buying a slip than of wearing a hoop skirt.
I'd consider a hoop skirt before a slip, unless I was wearing the slip as a dress instead of an undergarment. As I know more than one woman under 40 who'd say the same, I had to blink and reset my brain to the not-goth, not-SCA, not-RenFaire set.
If this means half the skirts I find in the stores are going to need a slip, I'ma be seriously pissed.
I wear petticoats and half-slips whenever I'm wearing a skirt that would otherwise stick to my legs. Full slips, not so much.
In my youth there was the bra-slip, which made more sense.

I wore a hoop skirt to my prom and I'd do it, again.
I'm wearing a slip right now -- er, a half-slip, actually. I figure a cotton skirt (it's 60 degrees here today) runs too big of a risk of being see-through.
I haven't heard from work yet. Should I:
(a) Call to make sure he got the e-mail?
(b) E-mail and say I'm on my way in and we can discuss it when I get in?
(c) Wait?
Morning All!
Just skipped 14 Brazilian messages so I could share the news that, after a week long Comedy of Errors with my postal carrier, I received a package last night with a brand new tiara! Thanks soo much juliana! It's beautiful! I wore it to my dance class last night, to many compliments. All the other goodies are awesome too! Especially the Smart Cookie - it's so cute. And I'm not at all bitter that its answer to my first question was "You ask too many questions." Ha!
Thanks again!
So, how's everybody?
