Um, what?

So, I went to the doctor’s office today about being sick for a week.

Apparently, my blood pressure’s up again, so I’m on a new med. Wonder if that’s related to stress.

Apparently, my sugar is up, so they’ve ordered a new regimen of tests to see if I have diabetes. Good thing to do, whether healthy or sick.

Apparently, because of a sensative spot under my rib cage, the nausea might be caused by an ulcer. Tests for this have been ordered as well. Wonder if that’s related to stress.

Apparently, I also have sinusitis. Again. My doctor ordered a cat-scan (HOLY CRAP!) of my sinus area to find out why this keeps happening. Wonder if this can be caused by stress.

So, there you have it.

*blink*

I think I’m getting better, strange as that may sound. There hasn’t been a bout of severe nausea yet today, nor the extreme lack of energy.

I’ll be making a doctor’s appointment as soon as possible tomorrow, when the office opens. Not only is it a good idea, not only is it something that would nag me to do, it’s something that I need to get my sick time approved. Heh.

Today will not be wasted. *shakes fist*

Two steps forward, one back.

I finished Chapter 20 yesterday. One more to go.

Chapter 17 isn’t finished being edited yet.

Horoscope

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Naturalist John Burroughs was addressing your current needs when he wrote the following: “The lesson which life constantly enforces is ‘Look underfoot.’ You are always nearer to the true sources of your power than you think. The lure of the distant and the difficult is deceptive. The great opportunity is where you are. Every place is the center of the world.” Let’s finish up this little pep talk, Taurus, with some advice from Theodore Roosevelt: “Do what you can, with what you have, where you are.”

Things

So many good things are coming up over the next two days. Gonna go and visit the parentals on Wednesday, as well as check out the final artwork for the engagement ring. *HOP* and I will also be at Luna on Wed. night.

I’m looking forward to spending enough time writing to at least finish Chapter 20. Yeah, I know I haven’t gotten 17, 18, or 19 out to anybody yet, but I’m working on it. :) I’m already halfway through 20. This novel is almost done. Holy crap. That’s intimidating in and of itself. I’m going to go from “writing my first novel” to “have written a novel”. HOLY CRAP.

keeps talking about when I get famous and how my LJ is going to get a gazillion hits and I’m going to have to watch what I say, or purposefully blow out of proportion everything I say… uhm… I mean, nothin’.

I love-a da Benny
