The GOOD & BAD THREAD (VI)

[Deloria]

It hit a lot of places. I'm annoyed every time there's a crisis and the only places that receive help are the ones that have been hit not the hardest but in the most publicised way. Poor Caribbean.

The BAD: The weather is terrible.
The BAD: I have just hit the four-week migraine mark.
The GOOD: Sweetarts and Swedish Fish.  
The BAD: I'm off to do revision.
The BAD: Next week.

@Deloria:

The BAD: I have just hit the four-week migraine mark.

Oh wow, that is beyond insane and unhealthy

Have you ever tried Ketorolac Tromethamine? You should ask your doctor, it was prescribed to me after surgery and as an emergency pill for migraine crisis (sublingual, 30mg)

[Deloria]

I'm using Zolmig (Zolmitriptan). While that does help, it wears off after about two hours. We think spores or mold might have been released into the air when we were having our house repainted and remodeled because my mother's had one for even longer. The ridiculous thing is that no one will send me for an MRI because they maintain that everything that is wrong with me, has ever been wrong with me or will ever be wrong with me is psychosomatic and stress-related. I hate doctors here. They really don't care about people at all.

[darthkiwi]

Why is it that whenever we talk about your doctors I end up wanting to hit them really hard in the face?

Hey, they work really hard to get hit in the face as often as possible. Let's them know they're alive... and that it's not psychosomatic.

I understand that for sure. But I'm a regular donor--not just when there's an emergency--and this particular drive just happened to go to the Red Cross. 

BAD: Deloria's head. Ouch!

GOOD: Babysat today for three of my favorite kids.

GOOD: The Seahawks won.

GOOD: I just took a hot, HOT shower and now I'm all warm and gelatinous. 

[Deloria]

Oh, okay. I'm glad.

The BAD: My head still hurts.
The GOOD: Biri is splayed all over me and happy and purring.
The BAD: I'm turning very sociopathic.
The BAD: I can't sleep because my head hurts.

She may have been my mom-in-law, but I've called her Mom for four years now

The BAD: Mom passed away last Friday
The GOOD: God is bringing all of us comfort in a way I've never seen Him work before.
The GOOD: Erik and I got home last night...and this is the first time Erik's been home in 11 days The cats aren't letting him out of their sight!!

[writerlove]

I'm sorry to hear of her passing. May God comfort you, Eric and his family in this trial.

The Good: Had a 'aww factor' moment while writing my fan fiction. Darn it, why do I insist on writing out of order?

[snabbott]

Cat and Erik

[KatieHal]

I'm so sorry to hear that, Cat.

[crayauchtin]

Ohh, I'm so sorry Cat!

[Delling]

Sorry to hear it, Cat.

[koko_99_2001]

Thanks guys. Obviously it was something we knew was coming, especially with the shape she was in when I had to come home, but gosh it still hurts. Now life is "back to normal" and Erik and I both head to work today.

The GOOD: it's the holiday season!!
The GREAT: the DaCosta clan is coming to our house for Christmas!!

[Deloria]

I'm so sorry, Cat.

The BAD: The worst and most humiliating day ever.
The BAD: Public whimpering/screaming/gasping/crying during an exam with about sixty other people.
The BAD: I'm so exhausted
The BAD: And I'm high. XP
The BAD: And I've done 12 hours of exams over the past three days and have eight more over the next two. XP
The BAD: Being literally so exhausted that I couldn't find the strength to go home for about three hours.

[crayauchtin]

The BAD: And I'm high. XP

I'm confused why you said that was bad.

[snabbott]

The GOOD: Today was work Thanksgiving!
The BAD: Feeling very unmotivated now... 

[Deloria]

The BAD: And I'm high. XP

I'm confused why you said that was bad.

Because I'm taking massive exams that determine my future while high because public screaming is disruptive.

[Delling]

The BAD: And I'm high. XP

I'm confused why you said that was bad.

Because she doesn't like being high... it's just she only has two options: be high or be in considerably more pain. She especially doesn't like being high when she's in the middle of exams.
