I should never have gone back to them, or to pop, but I have.  Now I need to wean myself off of pop again (or soda, if you&#8217;re either pretentious or not living in Michigan).  I&#8217;m indulging in root beer today, because I need to feel good.  Same reason that I&#8217;m at Theio&#8217;s, honestly.  Comfort environment.<\/p>\n<p>Got about two hours of sleep last night thanks to the dry heaving.  Looks like Monster did not play nice with my stomach-to-lung-acid-hatefulness, and so I was choking on bile for much of the night.  The choking triggered coughing, which triggered my gag reflex, and old lung butter from the bronchitis days made the escape.<\/p>\n<p>Good to have it out, I suppose.  However, I had to go back to the cough syrup with codeine just to get to sleep, and ended up calling off of work today.  Woke up at 12:30 PM, so now my sleep schedule is b0rked beyond reason.

I fear that I may have to abandon it, as several versions have refused to start up.  Could be the machine, though.<\/lj><\/p>\n<p>On that note, this laptop may be destined for eBay or craigslist.  As time goes on, it seems to be fitting less and less of what I need out of a laptop.  So, we&#8217;ll see.<\/p>\n<p>I am -really- trying to enjoy the holidays.  I&#8217;m not sure how well it&#8217;s working.  At least I have food in me now.<\/p>\n<p>Oh, yeah.
