Took a chance

I decided to take my exam today. It was easier than I thought it was going to be. Now I can concentrate on the other stuff I need to do for class this week before Thurs. Then I can pack for the weekend. I can’t believe the wedding is this weekend already. I am so excited.

I am still headache free. I had some good sleep, though I still had some weird dreams. I dreamt I was at the hospital in the back and playing basketball only to get a pseudo-asthma attack. That was all I remember. I know I had another dream but I don’t remember it.

I finished the library book last night and man, it ended with a cliffhanger. Now I have to see if there is another book that continues the story. It is all very interesting. There are so far four books in the series. I just requested the second book. This is such a good distraction from neuroscience! I love reading this mystery novel. It really got me going last night. I had to stop and then go back to it. I am not quite sure why I had to stop reading once I finished the chapter and not go immediately to the next one. It’s like I had to stop and think about what I read before continuing. Most of the time I was just saying WTF. The writing is just amazing.

I am sort of tired. I miss baseball. There are playoff games but the teams that are playing I am not too interested in. I just wish the Snakes to lose. I don’t know when they start playing. I am sort of depressed but I am masking it. I have to otherwise I think I will crash.

A much better day

I woke up kind of mid-morning. I had some studying to do. I tried to read but kept being distracted. I couldn’t find what I was looking for so I was getting frustrated. I couldn’t remember where I read what I read. I would have to go through everything and it would take some time. I am so frustrated. I don’t know how tedious this exam is going to be. I might take it tomorrow rather than Tues just to get it out of the way. I have to do stuff for the group and my paper presentation for Thurs. Ugh so much to do this week. Then I have to pack for the weekend for the wedding. I realized I bought the wrong color tie. Ugh. I just bought the right color one. Thank god for next day delivery from Amazon.

I feel ok finally. No headache but I am still kind of tired. I rested for a bit after I tried to study for a bit. I made chicken and roasted potatoes. It was good. I am still craving a burger. I might buy some tomorrow. I hope the store is open. Tomorrow is a holiday. I don’t know how the buses will be running. I did my meds for the week. I also shaved. My cousin trimmed the back of my neck today. I was glad as it was getting thick.

It’s been a cold rainy day. My sister put the heat on so the pipes wouldn’t freeze. The heat came on in the middle of the night and I heard it come on. I had to go pee around the time it came on. Other than that, I pretty much slept through the night. I did have some weird dreams but nothing to cause headaches or migraines, thank god. I needed some decent sleep.

I went to the ED last night because I was on day 10 on my headaches/migraines. I couldn’t take it anymore. I spent the night in the ED. I didn’t sleep. I didn’t eat. I drank some. Because of the fluid shortage, they didn’t give me fluids. I was thankful because every cup of water I drank went right through me. It took three rounds of meds to get the headaches to a tolerable level and then they discharged me. They want me to follow up with my neuro so I got to call on Tues to see if I can move up my appointment. The neuro attending told me about NSAID rebound. I hope my toothache doesn’t come back.

I slept for a couple of hours and I didn’t dream. I had some leftover Chinese food because I didn’t feel like cooking. I’ll cook tomorrow when I feel a little better. I woke up my head was hurting again but I think it was because I haven’t eaten anything all day or really had much to drink.

My bed dropped my textbook on the floor. I don’t know how it did it. I laughed. I guess I am not studying tonight. I need to re-read chapters 6 and 7. I think once I go over those chapters I will be confident to take the exam. I have until Tues to take it.

Anyways that is the update for today. I am tired and beat. Hope I can sleep tonight.
