Blargh. How bad an idea is it if I have a glass of hard cider now that I've taken pill #3 of a Z-pak? I'm taking them as standard procedure post root canal. I was all set to sit down and have myself a nice drink when I realized that this might not be a great idea.
Where'd they get CAT scan from?... I mean, did they test it on cats? Or does the machine sort of look like a cat?

I keep having dreams like that, when I open a small door in my house and discover there's a whole other, nicer wing to the place. Or the basement is furnished and I never knew.
I've totally had those dreams, where I open some door I didn't realize in my apartment and find a whole room or rooms I didn't realize I had.

Thought work would be easier without boss lady nattering at me, but I still ended up staying longer just to get shit done.
But I kind of love being in the greenhouse when one of our regular visitors comes in with her son. Today I had borrowed a colleagues Alt-J cd and was jamming to it while sowing seeds and her son, autistic, started jamming to it as well.
I'm attempting my mothers winter-sowing method with milk jugs. She did her whole garden out back that way last year. I'm such a noob at mass propagation. Want a greenhouse/propagation facilitator. (But then I lose my tunes, such hard decisions).

Anne, allegedly, it's not a good idea to have alcohol while on antibios as it diminishes the effectiveness.
I don't remember if I posted about my unendurable leg pain here. I insisted on getting a study done. And thank god, I have a deep vein thrombosis. So, I get to give myself injections for the next week of lovenox plus coumadin. I really wanted xoteral but was shot down.
The nurse didn't want me to self inject. She said she wanted me to demonstrated that I could (I can and did) do it. Then I heard them talking about me coming back on tomorrow and every other day for injections. Oh hell no. I will just do it myself. Give me the meds. It was intriguing. But I guess all of those fertility injections were a learning experience.

Anne, there's no interaction between zithromax and alcohol. I wouldn't down a six pack, because your liver is already working hard, but a glass should be fine.

Wow, I'm glad you had it checked out.

Jesus, Kat, glad you got the study!

Kat, eek! I'm glad you got that checked out. I'm also glad you can take care of the injections yourself.
Thanks for the info on the alcohol issue. I think I'm going to pass on the drink tonight, but I'll have myself a nice little treat tomorrow.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Can Katie do it? I did all of Jason's DVT injections, but he is probably more freaked by that stuff than you are.

Yeah. She can. I mean, I did a week of hcg injections for myself to get pregnant and then I had to 14 weeks of progesterone injections twice a day. So I can do it. I'm just not excited about doing so.
