Also in my case it's not med related. It's my brain. My beautiful, but probably fatally flawed brain. I hope you all are nice to me when I'm unable to talk and all I do is smile sweetly at people and try to grab at the food.
Lorne: Once the word spreads you beat up an innocent old man, well, the truly terrible will think twice before going toe-to-toe with our Avenging Angel. Spike: Yes. The geriatric community will be soiling their nappies when they hear you're on the case. Bravo.

OMG, me too.

HOLD UP! I did NOT agree to this!
I have the thing with losing the word I need and I don't think it's medication causing it. Who knows?!

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
It's really annoying when I'm playing Jeopardy and I forget a name or word I've always known. Like Jane Austen, or penultimate.

Our wings are not tired.
I still have the word out of reach issue, but rarely compared to a couple years ago. After I had the seizure and they had me on the awful meds, it was bad. Both with and without meds. For a couple years I have really made an effort to do the right things for my fragile brain and at this point I can see that it helped.
Of course one of the biggees for me is getting my proper sleep, and oops, way past my bedtime. Best get on that.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
That's both charming and worrisome.
Considering it's been going on for ten years, and doesn't seem to be getting any worse, I'm not too worried.

Looks like you'll be sitting at the quiet table with me and Nora, so, um, at least there will be nachos?
Okay, and as Laura reminds me, I should probably get to bed soon and let those neurons repair themselves.

Glad to hear I'm not the only one with word memory problems. I've been worried spitless for a while, now, because my most recent shrink took me one of the meds I used to be on because she said it caused dementia in older adults. Now all I can think is - how much older and was the amount of time I was on it significant? I'm a little freaked at this point.

Thrive to spite them
I am "stuck" with Penny on my lap. She's been here since I called Geico to cancel my insurance and I can't get up. Mostly because I feel bad for the upcoming days.
The gieco lady tried to sign me up for some policy "to save me money" while I don't have a car but keep something and she ran the numbers and was "oh.oh.uh this will actually cost you more money so that's not a good idea". Yes lady my car isn't worth much. And then she said when I got a car I could keep my policy number and something else as long as I got the car within a time frame. So... I'm not sure why she was trying to sell me something.
In other news cleaning out my glove compartment I found a small pin that said something about Homoerotic Context, I can't remember, I can't go look (cat on the lap syndrome) but I kept that and I found a few other things that were stashed away in there.
