Good luck with that. I open that stuff, I assume it's a meal.

Pub cheese, not benadryl.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Compazine is the one that gave me crawl out of my skin-itis.

I had a nurse call it something like "crazy legs". Not all of them know about this possible side effect, so I have to monitor the order and pacing with which they give it to me in combination with the benadryl. But without it, the very specifically strange side effect is the need to flee.

Oddly, when I got home, I'd be okay. I'd just REALLY have to leave the hospital as soon as it kicked in.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

What a day. K-Bug's bf drove up from NM and arrived around 1:30am. The whole household woke up at 6:00am to get up and set out to be at the karate tournament at 7:00am. K-Bug was chief baby wrangler for the dojo kids. The baby was great, but the 3 year old didn't appreciate being on a short (proverbial) leash. I only competed in one event, sparring, and lost in the first round. I did lose to the gal who ended up winning our division, so I'm not too upset. CJ had a great tournament, second in sparring, second in forms and first in weapons. I, alas, have no pictures from the day. Last event was finished around 5pm. I took the gang out to Red Robin and now we are home watching the World Series.

So. Freakin. Tired.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Good luck with that. I open that stuff, I assume it's a meal.

Ditto. And my cousin just convinced me that the spinach-artichoke dip is actually a reasonable meal! So now I'll buy that.

ita,

there are accupressure wrist bands that are supposed to help with nausea. They helped me with car sickness and air sickness. I think there are those with electric pulses. I thought there was some medical evidence they are supposed to help and not random hoo-ha, but there might be others who chime in here.

The only reason I'm not eating pub cheese right now is I am out of crackers.

I need to go make frosting for this coconut cake.

Huh. I get this with almost all anti-nausea drugs. Bad skin-crawling, hot flushed, OMG-get-me-out-of-here reaction. The worst was the time I’d gone in for fluids because of a bad stomach virus and came close to yanking the IV out of my arm and running screaming out of urgent care. Thankfully, Benedryl calmed the reaction. Thank the gods for Zofran (anti-nausea that I’m not allergic to).

I have pub cheese. This could be dangerous.

I'm watching Addams Family Values, which just got to the point where Wednesday forces herself to smile and all the other Camp Chippewa kids gasp and take an involuntary step backwards.
