{{{sj}}} You're the guest of honor - let other people panic about your shower. You should just sit back, relax, and enjoy.

ETA: Also, I'm sorry if my mini-rant on showers in Natter has added any stress. I am a grump who is not generally a party person, so please take my opinions with a grain of salt. Plus I am positive that your shower will be fabulous as you will be there!

No, not at all. I was just sharing my opinion and experience. I hope I didn't come off as snippy. I'm just not feeling very well. I have days when I can feel that the ADs are working, and I feel so much better. Then I have days when I'm still very very depressed. Plus I have a uti, and my sleep schedule is so very fucked up. I sleep a little bit one night, and then way too much the next.

{{{sj}}} No, you did not at all come off as snippy. I think I came off as grumpy-pants. I hope your meds kick in quickly so that you feel better. I am weaning off of mine and am wondering if that is why I'm grumpy lately...

Sean, Drew, this is crazy. I hope you both start spending much less time in hospitals as soon as possible. And Sean, lots of good advice here--I hope it works.

I went to a cemetery showing of Rosemary's Baby. It was very effective. That was when my movie buddy and I fully realised we were underusing the cool of LA.

Oh, I am DESPERATELY jealous. How fucking cool.

I was extremely grumpy pants about the plethora of baby showers, wedding showers, and weddings I have been invited to over the years. I figure it's my turn. I never thought I would get my turn, so it's kind of weird.

Mooshu update: his bloodwork's completely clear, thank the doggy heavens. Doc seems to think that even though it's an atypical response, that in all likelihood, the antibiotics for the skin issues are killing his appetite and/or making him nauseous, so she suggested going to pick up some Zantac 75 and giving it to him twice a day and seeing if that works. If not, then we'll look at discontinuing one or both of the antibiotics. I may have to start thinking of some holistic types of treatments for his skin. Poor noodle.

Oh, and Bev, I suggested the tooth/throat thing-- Dr. Maria said they'd palpitated and checked everything out and nothing appeared to be blocking his throat and I've had my hands all over his teeth and in his mouth and he hasn't exhibited any distress, so that's probably ruled out.

Heeh - I'm with Amych on this one.

Sean, ND, and ita ALL need to start spending less time in hospitals. I believe I have already made my views on this matter abundantly clear and if the universe does not comply to my wishes in a timely manner I WILL CUT IT.

I'd post a rant about how work is making me want to cry today, but it seems rather shallow and petty compared to some of the crap being hurled at way too many of my friends. So I'll keep it brief - work is making me want to cry today. If anyone knows of a wealthy eccentric looking to leave me all of his/her money, please let me know so I can quit.

Laga, since you've been pimping my show so wonderfully, feel free to give this link out as well: [link] It's the Director of the show (who is also the head of the theater) talking about it, and the upcoming season.

(something to distract from all the gloom, since I can't do a jig and see y'all smirk at my ridiculousness)

Love the Mythbuster thing. Hilarious!
