| Your Social Anxiety Level: 56% |
 You have moderate social anxiety. It's possible that you have a serious social anxiety problem. But it's also likely that you can help yourself, by getting out more and trying new, scary activities. No one's secretly judging you. So be yourself, and if you screw up, just laugh. |
It hit me Thursday evening. Like a spike trought my left eye. Fell asleep with it, woke up with it and basically at 2pm on Friday it decided to leave. Only it didn't, not really. It knocked me on my rear so hard. I had to take the kids to the orthodontist at 4pm who's a couple of minutes away from our place but it took all my energy to do this. When we got back ... I couldn't stand. I went to bed and pretty much could not get up until about 6:30. It was awful ... couldn't even lift my head. By 8:30 I had enough energy to get into PJs and hit the sack. Got up this morning still a bit weak . But better, I was even able to do a couple of loads of laundry!
One of these days it'll get through my thick skull that I need to get on migraine drugs. I'm just psychologically against this because of all the ashtma meds I'm on ... I don't want to add another "regular" drug to my regimen. But it's so obvious that I need to. Three days, that's how much time my family and I have sacrificed to this .. and I may still not by 100% tomorrow. And that's just too much time to give up.
So I'm making a promise to myself. Next time I see my doc ... I'm asking for the meds. I'm not willing to give up days of my life anymore ... it's not fair, not to me and not to the fam.

Pffft ... Like I needed a meme to tell me this LOL. It's true I'm not comfortable with people but I think this online interaction thing is improving that aspect of my personality :)

 The left side of your brain controls verbal ability, attention to detail, and reasoning. Left brained people are good at communication and persuading others. If you're left brained, you are likely good at math and logic. Your left brain prefers dogs, reading, and quiet. The right side of your brain is all about creativity and flexibility. Daring and intuitive, right brained people see the world in their unique way. If you're right brained, you likely have a talent for creative writing and art. Your right brain prefers day dreaming, philosophy, and sports. |

 Ah, the past! You may not remember it well - because you're still living in it. While you've changed some, you may want to update your wardrobe, music collection and circle of friends. |
Update : 7:30 am. The guys showed up around 2:30am totally wiped but in good spirits. My boy was being all macho but tolerant of my concern. His wrist is broken but it's a clean break so there's hope that it'll be a short period with a cast.
TYM said he wasn't in a lot of pain. I'm not sure if that was true or if that was his machismo talking ... silly child he should learn to take his pampering while he can get it! We still need to get a true cast on him ... he only got a splint at the ER.
I'm told they got lucky there ... one of TYM's hockey friends' Dad was working the ER last night so he was treated by someone he knows and we trust! They didn't have to wait .... were ushered right in and it was still over 4 hours ... I can't imagine when they would have gotten home if they had to wait *shudders at the thought*
So overall things are good .. we're just tired .. thankfully the kid can sleep in, he's got nowhere to be.
10pm: Phone rings. I know something is wrong right away 'cause hubby took son to the 2nd hockey practice of the season ... and calls after 9pm always equal bad news.
I pick up, it's hubby.
"What's wrong" I say.
"Uhm, we need to go to the emergency room, TYM hurt his wrist" is the answer.
Now for those who don't know my hubby ... he's not a panicy fellow. If he thinks it's time for the ER ... it's not good.
So now, I'm stuck home waiting and waiting. Because we all know that weekend nights are the WORST times at the ER ... it'll be tomorrow before I find out what happend and how he is!
This is the second ER visit in his life and both times are related to hockey ... why the devil, does he need to play this sport????? OK panicy, paranoid Mommy is taking over. I'll go play some Sudoku to try and cool off.
I'll update when I find out what happend, probably tomorrow.
Update 1:45am ... I couldn't wait any longer so I called hubby. The boy has a broken wrist, my poor baby. First it's the clavicle, now the wrist. I guess he's all bandaged up now but hubby doesn't think they'll be home for at least an other hour. Darn ER rooms on weekend nights ... the poor guys are soooooo exhausted!
Oh goodness gracious! I can't wait ... just look at the pretties!
So many fun movies and all in one summer! I think if the 2nd(or 4th) Superman Movie would come out in the midst of these goodies, I'd have a coronary! My poor little heart wouldn't be able to take it :)
For all my friends who find themselves typing the same thing over and over and over again. Here's a VERY nice little program I found and use.
Basically you create shortcuts for whatever you want. You copy the repeated text say Clark kissed Lois and tell the program to make the shorthand CL. Then everytime you type in CL and hit the Enter Key ... you 'puter will type out Clark kissed Lois :)
There's another program on which this one's based that allows you to create keyboard shortcuts to run functions so you can type something and have your browser open and load a particular webpage. I use that one to make HTMLing easier. Instead of typing <*a href="*"><*/a> I type in hre and hit the enter key and the whole thing is typed out for me and if I have the url copied it'll paste it in the appropriate place and leave my cursor where I want it to be! Makes formatting SO easy!
I love my boy! He's at that stage now where he doesn't quite know if he's still a kid or a full blown teenager. And it's just fine by me.
We were sitting at dinner today and he announces that he's going to make a toast. Now this boy pretty much never makes toasts so I and the hubster are intrigued ... what's this kid going to say and is it going to be totally weird?
TYM raises his glass and says something to the effect that the past week of the vacation has been so delirously wonderful that he hopes that next week will be just as much fun. We clink glasses and drink.
I'm so glad he's not a full blown teenager yet .. doesn't hate everything just 'cause we like it .. isn't constantly making snide remarks. Don't get me wrong .. he does all these things. It's just that occasionally his true being shines through and he gives us jems such as that. And it makes my heart sing.
I love my boy :)
