I'm going to hell, right? Wait, I already knew that.

Honey, we've got an entire car booked on the Bullet Train with "Buffistas" inscribed on the side. Just roll with it.

I'm waiting for the scantron to finish grading the multiple choice part of the finals so that I can enter grades. I don't understand why they can't get the computers coordinated -- there's one set of university computers that has the grade information, and another set of university computers that needs the grade information, but they can't communicate it -- I need to print it out from one and then enter it into the other.

Steph, would your doctor prescribe you a steroidal nasal spray to help the swelling in your nasal passages?

One of my sister's dogs has cancer and will probably have her leg amputated last week - not something you want to explain to kids right before xmas.

so there's nothing I can do except breathe through my mouth and watch DVDs.

The horror.

Lots of cats makes living anywhere better. You could put in lots of kitty walkways in a church, high up in the rooms and through the walls and all, like that one house I don't have a link to.

Oh, Sparky. I know how tough that is. (Not the kid part, than can only make it harder.)

Heh.

And there could be a giant crucifix in the church. We could cover Jesus with carpet so the cats could climb up Him, and there could be flat carpet-covered platforms for kitties to sleep on Jesus's outstretched arms.

Yep, still going to hell....

Great review, Barb!

DCJ, I'm sorry about the car stuff.

That seems more like a St. Francis statue thing.

Well, we all know I'm headed there.

if wanker = masturbator I'm afraid I cannot join your church.

shall start this off by saying that i am absolutely NOT sick because that would be admitting defeat.

Last night my neck started hurting like whoa. This is fairly normal. I took a half a flexeril and went to bed early. But apparently the neck hurty is not muscle-related as the flexeril made me really groggy (very unusual) and didn't touch the pain. I spent 12 hours in bed. The first 4 hours i woke about every 30 minutes (highly unusual on flexeril) to wipe drool off my face because swallowing was so painful that it wasn't happenening while i was asleep. Also lots of sweating and thrashing. I suspect there was a fever involved but didn't bother taking my temp. After 4 hours i forced myself to choke down a glass of water (ow!!!!!) and turned on the humidifier (hygrometer said humidity was plenty high, but sometimes it helps) and it helped. More thrashing and sweating but less pain swallowing and no more drooling.

After hauling myself out of bed i feel pretty awful. Throat hurts just enough to justify liquid ibuprofen and soup but not enough to be a serious concern. But the neck? Still super duper ow. Not in the front, but in the back. feels like something large is about to sprout out of either side of the base of my skull. Are there lymph nodes there? Is it just normal cold-crap to have significant pain in the back and sides of my neck? Sorry to be a bother but my gp quit a few months ago and i haven't found a new dr yet :(
