Current Music: Feedrosie - We Didn't Start This Website

Huh. We were worried about how we were going to afford the gas bill this month, but it turns out I have a credit instead of owing them anything. Nice~

Saw Cloverfield yesterday. It was really good, but it'd have been better if there was something explaining the monsters inserted in the end or something. Still, very nice. The dizzy spells actually didn't act up that much during the movie (it had horribly shaky camera work the whole way through), just a bit at the beginning and then we were fine. Till we started trying to move again...but that went back to manageable level quickly.

We've been getting spots of light before our eyes the past two days. Very rare, but they happened twice yesterday and a few times today but to a lesser extent. Not sure what to make of it...if it keeps up I may need to call a damn doctor on it again. I really wanted to give the trileptal withdrawal more time before checking with a doctor again but *shrug*

Now I'm kinda bored. Probably will go back to Okami or some other game, but I'll be around to poke on IMs if wanted. Hopefully if the dishes have dried enough I can get coffee too~ (Coffee apparently helps keep away gall stones. I had cut down a few months before the gall stones started. Figures, huh?)

Awake again and attempting to recover from Ohayocon...if we missed anything important please let us know, since its doubtful we'll go through friends page backlog for a few days if at all.

This song is a metal version of the Price is Right song and it wins.

Happy new...something. My brain, she is broken (yet again).
New year, I guess. Doesn't mean anything to me. We used to celebrate it as childrens, but now its just nothing. But, whatever, happy is good. And off work is good too. Dead brain that is possibly due to alcohol + sedatives (That's a prescription, kthx) last night is not. But at least I got to sleep ;P
Oh man, I dunno why I'm even writing this. I feel like I'm stoned or something.
Uh, anyway, we don't have any resolutions. I was gonna resolve to stop smoking, but Axel said I can finish my current pack instead. It takes forever, though, cause the smoking makes the dizzy spells worse so I don't smoke much. I sorta miss it ;; But at least the nic fits from before are gone.

I guess this year was fruitful. Doesn't really feel like its the next year, but I have those issues with time being messed up for me. Neat, or something.

The cats keep running at full speed into the walls. And we wonder why they're idiots ;P

I'm sure I completely forgot what I was going to say, so I think I'll stop now.

Look, body, if you don't stop being sick immediately before work I'm going to hurt you.
Er...not that I've figured out how to do so without hurting myself or the others. Bugger.

I've decided that I hate DS games that require you use the stylus to move around/do most everything. My poor wrist/hand hurts like hell from too much Zelda: Phantom Hourglass. I still can;t finish the game, but may need to stop it for a long time before going back to it ;; (which sucks, cause its fun)
I guess I still have the Digimon World games I need to finish that I can avoid the stylus on, and some random GBA RPG we picked up awhile ago. Dunno how much pain that will cause, since sometimes the mouse hurts too.
Damn you Nintendo. How dare you make games designed to torture me? ;P

Um, and...yeah...bored. Don't think I have anything to do on New Years Eve (Aside from work till 8pm or whenever they kick me out). It'd be damn cool to go out and party, but not that wise and we're low on funds. Oh well.

Now we have to decide if we want to go shopping now or save it for later. Need more food soon.

Current Music: Panic! At the Disco - Build God, Then We'll Talk

I hate television around christmas time. Its all xmas specials and shit. Okay, some of the documentary things on early Christian stuff are interesting, but the tired old specials are STILL tired and old.
I need more dvds, I think. I think I haven't finished the Zim DVDs...I could go to MST3k, but we've watched most of the MST DVDs we have within the last few months and I don't so much want to watch them again. Sucks.

Maybe I'll sit here and be bored and vaguely annoyed. I could pull out my DS again, but my hand was hurting last night so I'm sort of afraid it'll start bugging me again >.>
I want this chocolate sitting here, but my stomach hurts. Curse you hormones and body problems *shakes fist*

Maybe instead I'll just pass out for a few more hours. I don't remember eating anything, so we can probably lie down.

Work has removed my hours on christmas eve and christmas day. This is very annoying, since I wanted to work those days to get extra money and xmas was time and a half.
I also now have to try and pick up people's morning shifts next week to get 30 hours in >.<
On the good side, I got to go home early today without being pointed for it, and it appears that my time off for Thursday and friday before/on Ohayocon have been approved even though they were denied before. Yay.
Dunno if we'll make it to work tomorrow. We have an ultrasound on our stomach at 11, but they said it should only take half an hour, but if it takes too long or we feel too dead I'll get a note to get off then too. Would make it all week without really working...probably bad.

Malachi and I have decided we need to start getting up earlier and doing something to wake up our mind, because it gets really bad (The lightheadedness, that is) when we have to start using it at work. We have a book on quantum physics here...we can try reading that but I dunno if just reading will help. Should have a cliff notes for early chemestry somewhere with problems in it. Maybe we'll do that, or just get an early start on the math class that starts in January.

I got a free video game today ^^
We had to stop by the book store to get a present, and we got a coupon for a free mahjong game. Dizzy really likes mahjong, so~ its way too easy to phase out when playing it, though, so can't do it that much. But at least it was free and now gives us something to kill time other than just solitare.

Uh...otherwise...dead. Yeah.

For those people we said we'd get holiday cards out to...its probably not going to happen.
Sorry. Haven't managed to get to the store yet.

If wanted, we can try to send you some generic thing after new years/Ohayocon (read: probably feb or later)? I can't promise anything, though.
Jack, I'd like to send you a housewarming card, at least. And stuff to the people who sent us stuff. But no way it'll be by christmas or even new years at this rate

So we might have mono. Or might not. Because it was thought that perhaps we did back in High School (or was it middle school? Its uncertain).
Test results from the stuff done on Nov 16th are /finally/ back. Says no oddness in the thyroid other than it being slightly low (which is normal). Possibly oddness with zinc and some other stuff that went over my head because I don't have any medical training. Going to the family doctor (wee~ we're going backwards in the chain) tomorrow--which means missing work but it'll be fine as I'll get a note--and test results are also being sent to the bastard neurologist.
I'd really like to stay home today but no go.
Just leaving an update, because some people care. Still no fucking clue, though apparently Chronic Fatigue Syndrome is a possibility again.

Crossposted from my LJ.

Edit: Staying home today. Probably a bad idea. Will beg the doctor for a note for today when we see him tomorrow...but he's usually pretty cool, so we should get one. I hope.

So for my birthday I'm going to sit at home and do nothing. Sounds like what Matt would do.
But I'm tired damnit, and I don't want to deal with shit in this place/in this body, so...fuck it. We do nothing. I ordered pizza, but the stomach is fucked. Maybe I'll watch a DVD or something later. Maybe I'll just pass out.

Since a lot of my friends have left GJ and its so dead (or, at least, my friends list is) lately...and I sorta want a private thing to just me mine instead of the system's (okay, so Malachi shares it sometimes, but I don't mind) I'm dusting off my unused personal lj. Still not planning to leave GJ, so most the entries will probably be mirrored there. Sorry?
Whatever.

In fact, in some parts its too hot...so we'll start budgeting the heat tomorrow. But its soooo nice to have warmth at home.
ANd the person who fixed it let the cats out of the bathroom, so they weren't stuck in there all day. I'd love to thank him/her/it but I've no idea who it is ^^;

Current Music: MST3k - Overdrawn at the Memory Bank

Since I used to live in New York, and have driven around Upstate New York during the winter at least twice, I have been assigned to driving in the snow. Cause its really no problem for me, and I think its really pretty.
Except Dizzy still has panic attacks when driving in the snow, but they're much MUCH lesser than previous years. Axel's decided I do the driving and he'll take care of her. Its interesting, but it worked well enough today during the sudden snow storm. The snow apparently took the city by surprise, cause there were no plows out at 10am or so when we drove to brunch with the mother. Good thing we left early for that, or we'd have been late to work.
Of course we went home from work early...Dizzy started getting panicky about the possiblity of everything icing over by 8pm when we get off. They were nice enough to send me home early without getting in trouble...should be better tomorrow since we'll be more prepared for it. Also its not supposed to snow again till friday.
We're still sorta nervous from driving, even though there wasn't any trouble getting back home. Glad we left early, though, cause the roads were wet.

Otherwise~ I dunno. A friend on Axel's LJ made an art post, so I'm considering scanning a bunch of shit and doing an art dump, probably on the LJ. I also made myself a fursona cause I was bored, even though I'm not a furry in any way (though I do sometimes pick up on a tail and wings in system, but that's mostly rubbing off from Dizzy. And the wings are almost always in a weird attempt to keep balance). Also realised that we lean over when we draw, so the dizzy spells get worse so...neh. Not much drawing lately.
Axel's still a lot better than me at art. I think maybe I'll leave it to him more often, but I was bored today. Axel uses sketching as a way to pass time anyway.

Still no heat. Stupid land lady hasn't called back after we left a message. May just call the emergancy line, but its probably a pager--since we get so many calls at work from apartment complexs and thier emergancy pagers.

I wanna order pizza. But that's not wise. I have stuff to eat here, I guess.

...Upstairs neighbours need to stop making so much damn noise >.

So I'm bored and all my chats are somehow dead.

So, anyway, I got a few people interested in stuff so...if you want a card from us leave a note here with your addy (or if you have a post of your addy somewhere a link to it, cause otherwise I can't promise we'll remember). It'll most likely be generic 'Happy Holidays' shite, but its something.

Would anyone be interested in a card from us? I can't promise we'd even have the money for it, but I was thinking of doing it even though no one else is interested.

If you are, just say something and I'll see if I can handle it or not. Don't leave addys here, cause its not screened or filtered or locked or anything. And stuff.
