Feeling the craving to put pen to paper. Need to finish the end journal entry to my latest notebook.

I feel better as the antibiotics leave my system. Huh.

Too. Damn. Hot.

Right and left lower control arms (including bushings) have been ordered.

Still craving polish style pickles, but also thinking of Chinese for dinner.

Chinese for dinner was a go. Chicken curry with onions from Chen’s was delicious. Will have to find pickles at Meijer, or, if I wait until tomorrow before work, Apple Market.

Hours later, and still want to put pen on paper, but have no idea where I’d actually do something like that in my apartment. How odd.

Gotta keep up with errands, even if I’m not staying at my apartment. Duhr.

Maybe I’ll just crash when I get home. *yawn*

Or maybe I’ll do some editing and finish that journal entry. One must have goals, after all.

Doctor just called with the labwork results. Looks like it’s mono, and the eye infection wasn’t bacterial after all. Apparently, I tend to run myself ragged and not get enough rest. The irony is, I can’t tell mono tired from sleep apnea tired. How do you do that when you’ve lived your life tired?

Also, that means that I’ve wasted a good $80 on prescription co-pays. Nice.

From the Wikipedia article:
Supra-orbital oedema—the eyes become puffy and swollen—may occur in the early stages of infection.
The virus can remain dormant in the B cells indefinitely after symptoms have disappeared, and resurface at a later date.

Lucky me.

RIP George Carlin

My sandwich had too much onion, and did not come with the promised pickle. This is irritating.

I’m answering customers’ questions as they come in, and knowing the answers (save for one) is making me feel pretty good.
I’m officially invited to LiquidWeb’s DC3 ground breaking ceremony. That’s a little messed up.

My boss listens. Even when I’m all GRAWR SKIPPY SMASH!! This is good.

While vampires have been portrayed as more than monsters over the years, werewolves have had little besides Michael J. Fox.

I honestly can’t pick between the two, as the mythology and popular culture interpretations of that mythology enrapture me. :)

For those playing along at home….

Severe conjunctivitis in my left eye. What weapons will I fight the beast with? Amoxicillin to fight any of the infection in my blood, and where the blood meets the eye, and eyedrops (can’t remember the drug name) to combat the swelling, itching menace directly. I will fight this battle on two fronts!

Update: The eyedrops are a steroid/antibiotic combo. Get that four times daily, the amoxicillin three times daily. Holy crap.

Also, instead of going back on Vitamin C pills, I think that I will prescribe myself a daily dose of an orange or two for breakfast.

Also also wik, daytime running lamps seem to have perished in my Sunfire. They flash about ten times (as does the interior light), and the clicking that usually accompanies the blinker instead accompanies the flashing. So, my body and my car seem to be in about the same shape. Heh. My guess is that this is related to whatever took out my odometer light, and made the odometer (which is digital) freak out when the trip button was pressed.

Despite this, I’m in a pretty good mood today. Tomorrow before work is the blood work that I’ve been putting off / has been trapped in my trunk.
