I've reached the "I'M SO HUNGRY I COULD KILL SOMEONE!" side effect of the steriods.
Call me when you get to horny...
Acutally, we should have Buffista 'Roid Response Teams. Jessica could head up BRRT Starving, the Mommies could hand off your babies to you for BRRT Insomnia... like that.
Daytona is tomorrow? And Mardi Gras is next week? Where is this year going, already? Sheesh. Well, actually, not too bad because that means May gets here quicker.
We need to do that again some time. Perhaps in Portland.
I already know of several fabulous restaurants there...
Farmers Market AND Daytona? It's like Cassmas!
Bwah! That shall be my new holiday. If my house were clean it would be one of the best days ever.
Yep, Daytona is tomorrow. It seems unpossible to me even and I have been watching the lead-up events. How is it mid-February already?

I want one of the 'fista babies. I can't believe I am still awake.
If I stop stretching my shoulders, they winch straight back up. So I am casually stretching, reading around the interweb and sort of wondering if the day is really as bright as it looks to me or if it is sleep dep. [Also? Kinda whiny. It's unflattering. I'm just sort of brain dumping pre-processing today.]
Kittenish, on the other hand, is only waking up enough to move from one nap spot to another. Flopping heavily down and going right back to sleep.
Cassie, these accents aren't for real,
are
they?
I am cleaning my office. I live on the Island of Misfit Computer Equipment.
Accents on a stock car thing that I wasn't watching because I don't do that.
Argh.
An hour or so ago, I worked on "fixing" my car's radiator leak, where you put in some liquid and pellets and then let the car run for a half hour to let the pellets melt and find the hole.
Then after my kitchen timer dinged, I ran upstairs to get changed because I was going to drive somewhere, since the car was warmed up.
Was.
I just spent the last 3/4 hour or so tending to a deep cut in my heel from an errant piece of broken glass from my light fixture in my bedroom. I thought I had gotten all of it six weeks ago, but this half-inch piece came out from hiding and got me as I was pulling on my jeans.
It's only a 3/8 inch gash, but I
bled like a stick pig,
t whitefont for the squeamish
.
I spent a lot of time with alcohol and leftover gauze and bandages and "sponges" (from my old leg wound from 2 years ago) and cleaned it up. Then i used a clean minipad, then put a thick maxipad on top of that. then covered it all with an ACE bandage.
The question is, did I do enough so I don't really need to go to the clinic? I don't have medical for another 90 days or so.
I mean, if I keep it clean, and keep dressing it, I should be okay. My only concern now is that i might not be up to date on my tetnus booster.
Feh.

The
Deliverence
ones? Yep.
Daniel, if it doesn't get warm and puffy (thereby screaming infection) I would think that you are okay. Keep it clean, dressed loosely and don't use ointments containing neomyicin for days in a row. Bacitracin is okay for up to a week I think. If it heals and doesn't show signs of infection, I would say you are okay. Then again? I am not known for my pristine upkeep of my body so grains of salt and all.
Ouch! It really depends on if it seals up quickly. Keep it closed and if it stops bleeding it should be ok, but ouchy. The heel hurts for a long time.
From what my docs tell me, tetanus is rare these days. They didn't even give Bobby a shot when he planted a drywall screw in his foot playing on a construction site. They numbed it and cut it out and told me to dab some antibiotic ointment on it.
I know the diabetes complicates healing so watch it closely!!
