Top Hats and Botox

It's 11:50 and I've been awake for 8 hours. That's just ungodly and immoral. Sherlock Holmes did not help me get back to sleep, but it did advance my vague amusement at just how freaking formal the Victorians were. Watson and Holmes went hiking the Swiss Alps in spats and top hats! Top hats! Who the hell hikes in a top hat? Apparently they feared offending a goat with their uncovered heads. In a different episode they go cat burglarizing in full suits and greatcoats with Holmes once again in a top hat. Thank God I didn't live then. I'd probably end up being the resident crazy lady living on the moor.

In other news, I'm getting Botox! Don't know when just yet, but it's been approved by my health insurance. Botox has been found effective in severe migraine and has been recommended to me by several doctors. But it's rather expensive,$300 per dose. But now it's been approved! Yay! Now it's just a matter of finding a dermatologist or neurologist who will do the actual injections. The doctor who wrote the prescription is ...well, come to think of it I don't exactly know what his specialty is, but I see him for my TMJ issues - but I get other injections from him and even though he's lovely and I trust him, when it comes to Botox and all that can go wrong with it, I'd rather have the more trained and practiced hand of a dermatologist or neurologist.
