For what it's worth DN, you're not the only person who's been in situations like those.

If you're interested in learning what to do in situations like that, Standard First Aid is a course that a friend of mine took right after. Guy says that he's happy to know that if it happens again, he'll know what it might be and what to do.

Also, it looks pretty good on a resume!

You could reassure yourself with the cynical view that sure, they seemed like they were in a bad spot this time, but had they just been looking down at a phone, going up to their car and checking might just have gotten you punched.

So it looks like someone is working under my social security number in the next state over.

I barely passed one of my midterms.

But I'm the third-from-top score in my class!

But it's not graded on a curve.

My sister just had another seizure after they upped her medicine after it happening not two weeks ago.. God I really wish I could do something but it's a illness that I cant help.

Yeah, that's the worst, the feeling of helplessness. Tell Jen I said I hope everything turns out ok.

Update on my broken finger: had a followup with the doctor yesterday. It was supposed to be my last, but the nail on that finger has become ingrown and infected due to the break. So I have 10 days of antibiotics, another doctor visit in two weeks, and the possibility of incredibly painful surgery.

Seasonal Allergies.

OTC Clairitin. Has worked last two years. No longer stops cough.

Doc gives me perscription for Allegra. One a day. Is effective four about four to six hours after taking one.

Switched to MucinexDM. Gross trickle of mucus down the back of my throat reduced, coughs reduced but cannot be eliminated. Suppelementing with coughdrops.

Regardless of what I'm on, I feel sluggish and a hair disoriented. Doc says that's probably gonna be normal. Fun. I hate you spring. Flowers can go fuck themselves.

Light Shit Day: I have a runny nose and chapped lips. It might not sound like anything, but I'd compare it to Chinese Water Torture.

I would quite like to go off all my meds in the hopes that this would remove whatever is causing my dizzy spells. However, it has been rainy as hell (er, what passes for "rainy as hell" in Phoenix metro, which is "a couple days a week for a few months") and we are coming up on the worst allergy season in a goddamn decade.

I nearly broke my finger trying to turn a light on, tripped over a network cable, had a pallet break under my feet so I went facefirst into a pile of boxes, got a faceful of keys because I am not good at catching, got hit by an elevator door, walked into a car, sneezed so hard that my vision blacked out for a few seconds, put a pallet down on the side of my foot, and caught boxes on my face and right in the chest, winding me, because again, I am not good at catching.

This is a pretty normal day for me, really.

[Oh yeah, I also burned my tongue on a hot chip.]

...I should probably go through with that "Thad's Health" threadsplit, because today was actually not a shit day at all! It was the first time in weeks where I didn't have a serious dizzy spell, and I was much more energetic and productive. I vacuumed, put dishes away, washed some sheets, and inventoried a box of comics!

...but I never did get around to playing Mass Effect like I said I was going to on that other thread.

Anyway! Going off my meds seems to be helping. Well, my allergies are worse, but at this point that's a small price to pay.

Still coughing, though, so I'm pretty much back where I was in January or so.

Today was really awesome up until about 20 minutes ago.

I was talking with a girl I haven't really talked to in months and am somewhat infatuated with over Facebook. On top of that, my tax return made it into my account not thirty minutes before the post office closed, and I needed the money to get a money order to send out payment for a ticket that will increase in penalty if it's not sent out today. Hooray!

I go to the post office, wait in line 'til about ten minutes before they close, and when I'm being helped, realize that the debit card I received about a month ago because my bank was worried about fraud's PIN wasn't working. I hadn't used it as debit yet, so this was a fun little reveal. I call the bank, and all they can do is send me a new PIN by mail. Awesome!

I then return home and after bitching in #FF go back on Facebook and see that a guy I know that for some reason feels like he basically always needs to outdo me, who denied (but dropped "subtle" hints) sleeping with the girl I liked when I was first trying to go out with her a few months back talking to her in the topic. The conversation basically being "hey remember all those times I fucked you when he was trying to go out with you? We should do that again."

So yeah, today went from everything working out to as shitty as possible in half an hour. I think that's a personal best.

My debit cards usually don't work until I activate them at an ATM. Maybe that will help?
