How sad do you have to be to spam an entry that is 8 months old?  I seriously hope it was some type of bot, because otherwise it is just too pathetic to imagine.

San/Dean: OMG

Look - I know I live less than 10 blocks away and I know that I gave you rides to clinicals all this term. This did not mean that I was obligating myself for the rest of the year. No - I will not be giving you rides this upcoming term. And waiting until the sign up sheets were being passes around during class, writing down the same sites as me and then asking across a couple of aisles if I was going to give you rides? That just rubbed me the wrong way. I enjoy the alone time to get my thoughts together and I have no obligation to you. Gah.

I just love waiting fifteen minutes in a parking lot waiting for the person I give a ride to clinicals to show up. It wouldn't be so bad, but this is the second time in less than three clinical days. The first time, I waited about 20 minutes because she called after 15 minutes to beg me to wait. Today, I left after 15 minutes. I think it's time to have a talk and say that my limit is 5-10 minutes.

Trying out a new program

So, I had an appointment with my Neurologist on Tuesday. He was extremely pleased at the six month record that has been set so far do not going to the ER due to migraines. But it wouldn't be an adventure if it were just a "Let's keep it up and see you in six months", now, would it?
Dr. Daniel was a bit concerned about the lack of appetite. I explained that my appetite was dodgy even *before* the Topimax. I truly am making an effort to watch it. I wanted to continue to try it my way. He wanted to try Ensure. We compromised on a daily vitamin regime. (Gah. More pills.)
The only misunderstanding we seem to have had was with the Toredol. At the start of the year, he wrote me a script for 20 with on refill. During the visit, I asked if he could add 10 to it, bringing the total up to 60 instead of 40. (Heat does bad things to my head.) He seemed concerned about the increased amount and questioned me about my usage but agreed. I stopped at Rite-Aid tonight to pick them up and was rather shocked at the price increase in just a few months. Thankfully, the pharmasist signed me up for the stores prescription card that saved me about 13-15 dollars. Then I looked at the bottle and realized the doctor's concern. :) The prescription is for 60 with refills - instead of 30 with refills.
If I were a doctor, I would have been concerned about a request for a 20 to 60 pill increase, too!! And I got it, that part kinda boggles me.

Here's hoping that Topamax works better for me than it did for Lil.  Although, I will cheerfully admit to being a huge wuss and willing to take a bit of wonkiness if it will decrease the migraines.

Went to the neurologist yesterday. Kinda nervous because I wanted to change my meds all around to see if I could get better results. Turned out to be a non issue since he also wanted to try for better results. I'm going to use his preventative and he's going to try to get approval from the VA for me to use a different med than Imitrex for the migraines themselves. *And* he gave me a prescription for Toredol - so ER visits should be cut back.

So, found out a nifty little fact the other day.  When you register your Starbucks card?  You get two hours of free AT&T wifi at Starbucks stores as long as the card has had activity in the past 30 day - reloading or using. 

Yeah, so guess where I am writing up this little blurb?  And the first two guesses do not count.

I am waiting for Freddies to open - as is the usual case when I hang out here.  The cheap so called "universal" remote that I bought?  Yeah.  Works if all I want to do is power up the player and press play.  Any other things, like using the menus!, are a no go.  So, waiting to get in to the electronics department.  Hell, I may just price out a new DVD player.  Hmmm.  Shiny.

And I have started what may prove to be an ugly trend at work.  LOLWars.  When I left, an hour after the day crew showed up, we were close to 70 emails of the kittehs.  And they were still going strong when I left.  I wonder how long we are going to be able to get away with it before we draw down the ire of the IT dept and the big bosses,

Dear Ankle,

I know that we have had our ups and downs.  I have dislocated you and fractured you many a time.  However, I also try to baby you whenever possible in apology.

That being said - just what new monkey games are you up to?  For twenty minutes, every time I take a step you stab me with an icepick.  But then you stop.  For an hour or so, no pain at all.  Then suddenly, you bring the icepick back. 

Are you in some plot with the Spine?  Don't trust the Spine.  She is a bitch and lies.  Filthy, filthy lies.  Listening her will only lead to heartache - trust me.
