Fated Strife

Not much has been going on recently. My mom’s birthday was Monday, she’s 47 now.

I saw my primary doctor Monday as well, he gave me some Vistaril and Triamcinolone lotion for my legs and feet as lately they have been really bad with itching, rashes, etc. My mom also has the skin problem on her legs but is much different than mine.

I finally used the lotion stuff today (can’t use too much of it as I believe it can cause adrenal suppression as other corticosteroids can). The itching has went away quite a bit but it may or may not have been the lotion.

I ended up with this horrible migraine today, it woke me up around 7am and I stayed in bed pretty late but by 3pm it was still around so went to the ED. Some Dilaudid and Phenergan helped it and was also prescribed a few lortab for pain that may be around when the dilaudid wears off. That’s the first time any of the doctors at the ED or urgent care or such has offered anything for home use, and the person I saw today was very nice and understanding about these things. I hope one day I can be migraine free again but I doubt it.

I talked to angel for a few minutes Monday as well but haven’t heard from him the past 2 days, hopefully he’ll be on tomorrow some so we can talk.

I’m getting one of these for Christmas, due to the fact I’m such a big Zelda fan and I missed out on getting the LE gold Triforce GameBoy Advance. I’m curious if anyone has any suggestions on which games to get for the DS? I’m already getting Phantom Hourglass with that DS, I hope to pick up the New Super Mario Bros. game for it as well sometime. Trauma Center is also another game I’m thinking of getting sometime but other than those I have no idea what good games are out, so if you have a suggestion please leave a comment.

House yesterday was interesting. I napped until about 15 minutes into the show but thanks to TiVo I was able to watch it all. I’ll refrain from spoiling the episode but it had an interesting story, the PotW’s case had me confused for the most part. The story line with the new candidates and Wilson and such was also pretty good.
Any comments from readers about the episode (or the season for that matter)?

Its supposed to be cold and snowy tomorrow day for awhile. I’m really hoping it’ll snow a good amount, the weather forecast had it as flurries but now it just shows clouds with some snowflakes.

I can’t think of much else right now, my head is still hurting a bit and I am pretty sleepy now. I did update Cory’s bands site, you can also view previous and upcoming shows now thanks to a nifty WP plugin. I hope he starts using the blog and such soon.

Also, yesterday the rapper Bryan Williams (The Birdman), was arrested here while he was passing through on drug charges. I saw this on the news after House went off, I know people are arrested all the time but this is some big news for the area so I figured I’d share. You can view the original story here, and the follow up here.

I’ve also added a Polls section where you can take various polls and surveys from my site. So be sure to head over there and participate! I’ve included the latest one below.

Well today was boring.

Didn’t get to talk to Angel and he didn’t get my message that I had to leave before he got on since he used MSN today instead of POL. Not been talking much anyway, hit a rough spot in our friendship I guess. Hopefully we can get things worked out and remain friends still.

I had to adjust the date and time on the server as it seems time likes to go by a bit too quick on here. I have clockspeed installed and such but just haven’t set it up to actually run as a daemon or such to keep the time updated. I need to find a way to do this with a service script for daemontools.

I got my auction paid for yesterday finally, when I went to deposit the check to pay for it, the ATM was still broke, but at least they were fixing it (I think) while I was there. One of the tellers there heard my cell phone ringing and identified it as Suicide is Painless from M*A*S*H.

I added a few more figures to my collection yesterday, or maybe the day before. They are Clone Trooper Officer (yellow) and Boba Fett. I think the Fett looks pretty good, I’d like to see one with a removable helmet.

I hope my Darth Revan and Darth Malak will arrive soon, it was entered into the USPS system yesterday afternoon, so should be going out tomorrow at the latest.

It’s been getting cold here, for awhile there in October it was up in the low 90-80s. Now it’s around 50-60 or so during the day. Last night I think it got down to the low 20’s. Here is a graph from 11/02-11/09/2007, the temps seem to always be off a few degrees. Currently my thermometer says for outside temp that it’s 34.2F, Forecastfox says 35. Anyway, pretty graph:

I guess that’s all, I keep losing my train of though, didn’t realize how late it was, but I usually don’t notice when I can’t sleep. Though I feel exhausted and all.

Oh, I found out the latest job addition to the Wings of the Goddess expansion for FFXI..

Scholar

You can find out more here and here.

Also it seems that you be able to finally invite others into your mog house. Nobody to visit mine though I guess, though there is Cory who I’m sure would love to see all the junk taking up my inventory.

There’s an event going on now that is meant to bring in the new expansion. I used to have someone to do these events with, I may still do it to try to get one or both of the reward items. Maybe Cory will want to do that as well. Details on the event here.

Now, time to sleep.. I hope.
