sj, I don't think I've said - I am sorry for your loss. My grandma had Alzheimer's; it complicates an already sad time.

Go away, stoopid headache.

Thanks everyone for the sympathy. I ended up having a very nice evening with my friends, which was nice. I'm lucky to have so many good people in my life.

sj, I am sorry for your loss, but extra glad you had each other.

Fuuuck, migraine. Pretty sure it's a vertebra out of place, which I may have already said here or Natter. Went to party - music was hell. R and I went outside and who comes walking up but the one person I know in Metairie, one of my OKC dates. I think he thought I was being weird, so I texted him and explained migraine. Back home now. Gonna take some flexeril. Today I've tried naproxen with magnesium, then alcohol and caffeine, no dice. So fingers crossed on the flexeril.

Hope that does the trick, smonster.

Also, I think I forgot to say here - Happy Birthday, Zen!

Last, Sail, your FB post totally inspired me, and my kitchen is now clean, yay. Thanks!

Ugh, I hear you smonster--I had a date and we walked all the hell over the city, but eventually the headache I'd had when I woke up came back only worse...I completely lost focus and was like "uh..." and had to have her take me home. Not sure how I felt about her, and how much of that was affected by the pain. Ugh. I also always want what I can't have. I'm like "Well, she's not as cute as last night's girl..." nevermind that last night's girl may not even want to see me.

Trying to figure out what I'm doing tonight--after more painkiller and sudafed, head is better, but definitely not all the way. But I don't want to just sit at home and go to bed early. May have to though.

Headaches, please leave my Bitches alone! Go!AWAY!! I'm afraid that's about all I can do, except for virtual hugs. Hope they all go away soon.

I got a lot to do this week. Part of me is not looking forward to it. Home Depot didn't have the shower curtain bar I wanted, or the grab bar for the tub. Humbug. I did a very vain/cosmetic thing, which was swap out all the switch plates from the yellowy/ivory color to white. I also Swiffer'd my new living room floor. So much easier/quieter to clean than carpet! Met upstairs neighbors, finally. I was told they are selling soon, and were going to retire, so I was expecting an older couple. Nope. About my age. They will be moving back to Atlanta by the end of the year. Sad, as they seem nice people, and have a cute dog. Partial bloodhound at least. Maybe full. Dunno dog breeds very well.

Does tossing the 'science projects' from the fridge count as packing? Ugg. I hate moving. Hopefully, this will be last time for quite a while.

Potato(e) Chips and Cheers...

So... y'all aren't being talkative tonight. How is a guy supposed to have an excuse for not packing anything? Well, I did manage to do change of address on a couple things. So that counts, yes? OK, time to pack up the games. I think I can fit them all in my gunny sack, and the built in cabinet is built in, so it's all ready there.

I can't sleep. My mattress here is covered with some sort of water-proof cover, which is really slippery, and I can't get the sheets to stay on it. It doesn't really help that the sheets are too small for the bed, so I can only tuck in an inch or so on each side. Also, it's way too saggy -- I definitely need a bed board, but I don't know where to get one.

sj, may you be surrounded by comfort and love, and by people who understand when to keep you company and when to leave you alone. And may her memory be a blessing for you and your family.
