Faith ,'Get It Done'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Not hot here, either. I wore a sweater walking the dogs this morning.
Dogs didn't lose their shit last night, so maybe I don't have a skunk permanently camping underneath the house. But I should probably armor up and climb into the crawlspace tomorrow night after all...
We've in shoulder season weather already. Low 20s in the day, mid-teens at night. It's nice.
I am in a mood. I can't decide if I need to far, far away from people or around good people to get out of it. I already bought myself a dress to cheer myself up and that didn't work.
It's just been so freakishly non-Cincinnati-summerlike (our Duke bill has been SO LOW all summer) that the humidity and heat returning is a little jarring.
This summer in Chicago has been very mild until now. I've been counting myself lucky.
Fairly mild summer in DC, but not that much below normal. Lots of clouds. And pretty wet the last few days.
Timelies all!
Here in Dublin, and spent the day sightseeing. Trinity College and the Chester Beatty library. Relaxing now in the hotel lobby, seeing who we run into. (This hotel is hosting Shamrokon, the Eurocon for this year.)
Have fun in Dublin, Sheryl.
Man, that sounds like a good time, Sheryl.
I'll be excited if the heat comes this way. I guess it's been the dry that we've been feeling as much as the cool, but I feel like I have barely sweated this summer, for better or worse.
I feel good about the fact that I've spent the last hour alternating between looking up corn and zucchini chowder recipes and rampaging through a work queue and massively unfucking it.
Hi! Remember me? I'm the girl that hit three ERs in two days because her neck shoulder was making noise. And guess what? They no longer give IV benadryl at 2/3 of the places (the other was a 20 minute drip), and they only give dilaudid IM.
I left a rambling message with my pain doc, and they called me back this morning--apparently surprised that no scans were done, etc. They can get me in two days before what I had scheduled, which is good, and since this weekend is IV weekend (I get at home what hospitals will not give--one doctor didn't want to give me dilaudid because if I needed benadryl to stop the itching, I was allergic, and he didn't want to give me something I was allergic to--DUDE, IT WORKS).
So I'm being quiet today and reading my big bang story (I don't know if I picked a great one to illustrate, but it's definitely one I'm enjoying reading. Enemies to lovers, a cliche I love, is being handled very well.
As far as being given pain meds for home, I have flexoril. Yay? I am spending as much time as possible sitting up.
