Hellooo, people! Very excited, as last night hung out with real people, as opposed to family members or medical personnel. Which is not to downplay my family, whom I adore, especially my little, 4 yr. old nephew, Will, who told his mom, my sister (well, yeah, that's sorta obvious), "It's okay, Susie can come here. I will make it safe. Her head will not hurt." Oh my dear ever-lovin' god. So adorable it's painful.
But I was talking about something else. Oh, yeah, hanging out with real people. Yay! I finally felt well enough that I last night I went to a church thing and saw all my friends - the last which I saw them was in ....May? A hella long time ago. Also, met a kindred spirit. She loves all the small, unknown British tv shows that I do! Scarlet Pimpernel, The IT Crowd, Doctor Who (someone who understands the David Tennant aesthetic!), Coupling...okay, so the last two aren't really 'small' shows. We had a dandy time talking about all of them.
Today, though, slight overhang. No, hangover. Right, that's it. Anyway, hangover in the form of a massive migraine. Damn you, hershey kisses. This is what happens, though. I get stuck in thinking that the way I'm feeling at that moment is the way I'll feel forever. So I have a couple of good days - I mean really good days - like very little headache, could handle Target's horrid flickering lights and then my wonderful, noisy nephew - and I think, 'Hurrah! I'm better! I can have a little chocolate! And some ice cream!" And that's always a stupid move. So, here I am with an overhang. No. Hangover. In the form of a massive migraine.
This, though, comes on the heels of a disastrous Monday, where despite seeing the lovely and wonderful Kathleen, I lived my social nightmare. I was on a horrible med and I couldn't stand up without falling over, walk a straight line, stand up after falling off a bench, and basically looked like a drunken mess. Maybe there'll be a post about it. Not sure yet. The general consensus is that my neurologist hates me. That'll make more sense in a larger context.
So bit of a swing week. Begins with Kathleen (yay!) and public drunkenness, and ends with clarity of thought and seeing people I haven't seen in months. Let's pray this trend continues. (No, not the drunkenness.)
