juldeaUpdate on life, since ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
violeteye poked at me for one. ;)
I have lost 27 pounds since October and fit into size 12 pants. Yay, me.
Health-wise, however, I am farked. I'm a slave to precription painkillers right now because not taking them leaves me in enough pain for immobility and tears. Something went wrong from the cellulitis, it got into my hip joint, doctors are clueless. I just got my MRI scheduling in the mail today; it'll be on Sunday the 30th, which is odd, but ok. I'll just need to get those painkillers renewed before then.
Have added a Wednesday evening D&D game to my schedule, so now I have a commitment every night-before-a-work-day (Sun-Thu). That said, due to the previous paragraph, I think for the next month at least I'm going to forego dance classes. I've just been going and watching them instead of participating, and that's a lot of money to be spending on observation.
Still dating/living withlondo. ♥ We recently moved to Cambridge and our apartment needs some serious work. Maybe once I free up those dance nights.
Work is boring and sucky. I don't know what I'm going to do when I run out of .txt/.html novels fromtpau to read.
Hrm. Does that sum everything up?

The injection itself hurts like HELL, and they have to keep doing it, and it gets less effective for each injection. When they gave me one for my wrist, the first one hlped a lot, once I healed from the injection, for a few months... the second one for a few weeks. I didn't bother getting a third.)

on 22 Jul 2006 22:53 (UTC)The file I made was kind of weird in some ways. My first attempt was (I thought, incorrectly) too big for YuSendIt, so I kept deleting big chunks of the files from within the zip. That could do strange things to the internal structure, I suppose...

Cellulitis seems like it would be set off by rolling around while asleep, which was a problem when two of my ribs were broken years ago (and I don't use painkillers). I imagine they're keeping you from hurting yourself while sleeping, since I constantly woke up.
And congratulations on the weight loss - I know it's bugged you. Remember that it's health that's important, and health that's attractive. So do you feel better (physically) now? Good then.

on 22 Jul 2006 17:22 (UTC)Since you said something, perhaps I will make up a timeline of however this injury has come to be, so that people can have the full picture. It's been very odd. It is certainly not cellulitis anymore - nothing going on with the surface skin, at least, and whatever it is is doesn't respond to antibiotics. :P
As for the weight thing - I think the last time you saw me I weighed right about what I do now, and if not, I weighed less, so yeah - I was at a point where it bugged me more, and health-wise, too. I am feeling better now, except for the stupid hip. :P And believe me,

on 23 Jul 2006 11:39 (UTC)Well crap I'm sorry. :( I don't remember... oh wait, <grep> remembers for me. Yeah I'm sorry, I'm not sure what happened there maybe I closed it or it died before I saw them.
>It is certainly not cellulitis anymore - nothing going on with the surface skin, at least, and whatever it is is doesn't respond to antibiotics. :P
Oh boy.
>And believe me, londo would intervene quickly if I showed signs of losing weight unhealthily.
Quick! Quick with the ice cream treatment, get the funnel we need this ice cream in her now!

on 21 Jul 2006 16:36 (UTC)Look under either my docs/ or my docs/kurzweil/ ...there should be a thousand or two etexts on there, most of them will be .txt. The folder names are not always very descriptive, sorry *desperately wondering if there is a directory titled "erotica" on that computer and if so, what specifically is in it other than "NaziNuns.txt"*.
When you run out, get back to me, I have more.
no subject
on 22 Jul 2006 16:54 (UTC)Did you want me to confirm for you whether or not there's erotica on there? ;) (I can also avoid looking at all, if it is something you'd rather I not see. Heh.)
