My sinuses are going insane. Ow.

Welcome to the Ohio River Valley.

When my sinuses get like this, it makes the muscles in my jaw and neck tense up, and that then extends to my shoulders and pulls my shoulder out of joint.

Oh, man. Sometimes I have a sinus headache turn into a migraine, but that's as far as it goes. Yours is varsity-level badness.

My shoulder doesn't get totally dislocated, but just pulled a little bit out of the socket, enough to hurt like hell. There's really practically nothing actually holding my left shoulder in place anymore, after dislocating it so many times that all the tendons around it are so stretched out, so pretty much any pressure around there will wiggle it out of place.

I suppose it is more meaningful than getting upset about the mister magoo movie.

I really need my arm in a sling. I know i have a sling, but I can't find it. I kind of rigged something up with a sweatshirt.

Yeah, man, that's some varsity-level suck right there. I'm sorry, Hil. I've been wearing my shoulders for earrings for a week now from tension, but nothing compares to dislocating your shoulder from sinus pain.

Many wishes for sinus relief sent forth.

I went to the graduation party last night, and the drive was pretty painless. I got a little lost, but thanks to Utah's grid street layout I was able to zero in on the location fairly well. Unfortunately, the party layout was in the big back yard of the place. While very cool and pleasant and all that, I cannot be out in the grass at and after sunset, because there are chiggers or something that come out as it gets dark, and I have horrible reactions to their bites.

Inside was an option, but it was significantly hotter, there were several clumps of people talking to each other who glanced at me with 'Is she someone I'm supposed to know?', and a folk singer. Granted, she was very good on guitar and her voice was very nearly excellent, but it was weird to be listening to a young woman do a performance of heartfelt songs of heartbreak and longing in a room with a couple of bemused grandparents, a guy flipping through a photo album, a girl staring at her phone, and the owner of the house explaining memorabilia to someone else. I'm an introvert anyway, and it was just awkward.

In any case, I decided to leave after an hour. I'd hugged the kids I came to see, the grown-ups I consider family were gratifyingly disappointed to see me go, so it wasn't completely skulking off. I'd have stayed if there was somewhere to sit outside that wasn't on the grass.

Oh, and I was surprised that the playlist was full of mid-90s things like Spice Girls and such, and the kids were actually dancing to it. All the songs were ones that had been around for a long time. Are the 90s the new hip retro thing?
