It is my Lyrica. My doc has said, in the past, that I can try tapering off to see if the nerve pain comes back or not. Last time I tapered, the pain came back so I went back to my standard dose. Thus time I just screwed up, but no nerve pain so far.

Oh, a popsicle sounds good.

Popsicles! Why have I not been eating popsicles?

I had a nice family get-together over lunch with cake for an aunt and uncle's 50th anniversary, and got all my work for the day finished before leaving the office for lunch. Either it's a very un-Mondaylike Monday for me, or I'm about to return home to discover my pets have staged war games in my living room.

I was just thinking the same thing -t.

First part of root canal was fine. I actually went to school with my endodontist. He was part of the popular crowd. I was the class freak. So we did not speak of high school. (Though I remember him a bit from Jr. High and he wasn't so bad.)

I have to go back in 10 days to finish it up. The important part was that I didn't freak out or forget how to breathe during the drilling. And he has A++ freezing skills.

I am grading. Well, writing comments. The students do not get grades. I have 2 more to do before I can go to bed (and then 4 more to do in the morning.)

I hate grading.

I did some work today but not as much as hoped. And have to write reports in my hotel room in a few. But I did manage to go get a pedicure, so that's good.

Suzi, taper off is not "stop abruptly"! Silly.

Yeah. I'm discovering that. I should send an email to my doc to see how long it should take to quit feeling like shit.

Good job getting through the drilling, Sue! Sparkly tooth sticker.

We have reached flan tempaerature! Finally! It's been a learning experience. Everything will be better once I drill a hole through the top of the cooler.

I still have no popsicles, but I am full of yummy roast pork so I'm okay with that. I should look out for future -t and make popsicles happen, though.

So they started demolishing my kitchen today: [link]

Yikes! I have to admit, the floor does not look promising under all that. I may have to get a new floor put in after all...
