Oz ,'First Date'
Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
I went to work. Everyone was cool and happy I was ok. Turns out both of us on shoes called out Monday. However I made the mistake of doing to much and got super dizzy and nauseous and came home.
I'm supposed to see M tomorrow but I don't know.
I'll probably call the dr on Monday after I have my schedule.
Graargh. My new headache specialist wants me to give up artificial sweeteners. My Coke Zero! No take my Coke Zero!
Coke Zero always gives me a headache.
She's like, you could try Sprite or ginger ale? Well, yes, but the point of the diet soda was to avoid all of the sugar, since that's also bad for me.
Apparently I'm supposed to drink "water" like some hippie.

Can you try fizzy water with fancy bitters added? That's how I drink a lot of water.
I'm not a fan of sparkling water, but I'm looking at soda sweetened with Stevia, which is okay.

As one data point... it only took about a month of no soda before it all started tasting unbearably syrupy to me.
I'm also a fan of fizzy water, flavored with whatever (be it with bitters, or LaCroix or whatever)
Apparently these days if I drink alcohol and don't completely get utterly sober and very very hydrated before I go to sleep, I end up clenching my teeth like CRAZY all night long. So even if I didn't drink enough to be hungover, I end up with a terrible headache.
Thus being able to tell my doctor yesterday that no, I basically never drink more than 2 drinks in a night. Oh, how my younger self would gape.
I'm also being put on Topomax (which I think Betsy hated, so I'm a little leery), and she warned me that one of the side effects is losing words. Like, you're looking at a pen and can't find the word for it.
And, you know, that was already happening, as I am aging and decrepit.
I love fizzy water! DH gave up his massive diet soda habit 6 weeks ago. He just drinks water. A beer once in a while. Me, coffee in the morning, tea and water all day, wine at night. I may have a couple sodas a month if I am somewhere that has them, but I don't buy them.
