Ok, Internet; behave.

Ok, Internet; behave. My modem is fried and Cable One said that Tuesday was a good estimation of when they could register a new one to their system, even I had one right now to register... Which I don't. 

I don't want to use all of the data on my phone and it's annoying as crap trying to do everything from here, so I probably won't be around much the next few days. I have homework, anyway, so it's just as well that I don't have the Internet to distract me. Though I need it to write my English paper, but I'll probably just go to Shaun's house for that. 

Love you. Miss you. Bye! 😛

Dr. Edmond said that my lungs sound ok.

Dr. Edmond said that my lungs sound ok. He said it looks like walking pneumonia and prescribed a z pack. I would normally try to avoid antibiotics, but since methotrexate messes with the immune system I will take the help this time. 

I wonder if this is why I've been so tired lately...

So exhausted today.

So exhausted today. I've been a grump since this afternoon. I just need to hang in there one more day, then I'm off work for a couple of weeks. I will still have classes and homework, but it will nice to not have to go to work on top of that. I have so much to catch up on around the house and my body needs to rest and recuperate. I've been achy the last few days, but not cripplingly so. My psoriasis is making an appearance, though. 😕

I see Dr. Edmond tomorrow to get my blood tested to make sure the methotrexate isn't jacking up my liver. I'm also going to complain to him about my cough.

In other news I found out this week that I still suck at being a girl. I was wearing leggings and decided to go Wal-Mart. I put blue shorts on over the leggings to hide my ass. I felt more covered, but Shaun kept laughing at me. Turns out that made me look like one of those baboons with the big blue butts. It wasn't not drawing attention to my booty. I didn't understand until he took a photo of me from behind and showed me. Just wow. 😳 I need someone to come and dress me. I am not grown-up enough to handle this. LOL

Related, I'm going Saturday to get my hair cut again. The girl didn't cut it as short as I wanted and I thought I could deal with it, but I'm really not happy. I need wayyy less hair. I can't even deal with this. I feel like it's suffocating me. 🙁

Anyway. Blah blah blah. Goodnight. ❤

Got this announcement via email today...

Got this announcement via email today.  All of you ladies who were interested in trying a diaphragm - it might be a little easier to do now!  😃

Woohoo!

I am like, a billion excited about this.

I am like, a billion excited about this.  Maybe I won't have to leave the state to find an awesome computer science job!  😳  Has anyone ever checked out Google's benefits?  They are AMAZING.

Finished my Algebra, and now I'm tort-walking.

Finished my Algebra, and now I'm tort-walking. Nom is eating the world, of course, and Tort Baby is walking, walking, walking. He must be feeling adventurous today! 🙂

I am starting to let notifications pile up again, but...

Geez.  I am starting to let notifications pile up again, but I've been busy doing homework.  I have felt ok enough to get things done (yay!), so I've been trying to stay on top of things.  So I'm just popping in with an update.  🙂

It took two calls today to get someone from Dr. Crawford's office to respond to me, but they did finally call me back.  I was starting to get upset, so I'm glad they called.

Dr. Crawford wants to keep me on methotrexate.  Pills, I guess, since they are working.  She doesn't seem to think my cough is due to methotrexate.  I don't know how she can determine that without seeing me or asking me any questions, but I'll give it some time.  If it gets worse I will call and bother them again.

She also wants me to take triple the amount of folic acid every day.  It helps with nausea and keeps my hair from falling out and she said that a higher dose will help with the ulcers I'm getting in my mouth now.  So.  I guess that's a plan.

Sarcastic yay for side effects.  😕  But sincere yay for being able to walk.  🙂  And SUPER SINCERE HAPPY YAY for not being in constant bad pain.  😃  I have a dull ache in my hips sometimes, but nothing I can't overlook - especially after experiencing just how bad it can get.  Woo for being functional!  😃
