A day

i'm sorry, this really does end up better looking when I'm making a list, to be an html list. Much neater.

• C dragged me awake at 9am to eat food so I could take meds, and also to do infusion. (circa 40 minutes task, eating happening while infusing)
  
• I managed to get myself dressed and dragged downstairs to get my hair brushed/rebraided in time to half-doze for about 5-10 minutes. There was some delay but I can't recall what it was, just "doc will understand for this". We were out the door at 11:20 ish for a noon appt with Paindoc who is not-at-Doctorville.
  
• Rehashed my hospital adventures for paindoc. Got an scrip for extra breakthrough pain meds.
  
• Since I was almost falling asleep every time someone wasn't talking to me in the doc office, I declared a need for caffiene. Panera won out over the diner near paindoc, as I wasn't awake enough to appreciate the fact of a salad bar.
  
• Got call from nurse visiting today who wanted to visit right then. Since I was walking out of paindoc, and had an appt at Doctorville at 3pm, that wasn't going to work. We settled on 5pm this evening.
  
• Panera. Coffee. Strawberry Poppyseed Salad, in honor of Otter who ate it over everything else every time it was in season. Unfortunately for me, it may be the sweetest of their salads. stupid carbs.
  
• Arrived at Doctorville at 2:20 for a 3 o'clock appt. Since they were fitting me in anyway (my appt was last week, while I was in the hospital. Oh well.) I didn't think it would matter. I was going to get the shot from the nurse, until she saw the IV tap, at which point she went to get the doctor. "No no, the shot is fine with that, but that isn't fine! What happened?" Rehashed hospital visit with AllergyDoc.
  
• Got text that VisigothsPlumbers were happening: R had called them cause both tubs and 1 sink were refusing to drain. This was as we were leaving Doctorville. I texted back, asking if they'd stay long enough for me to talk to them, eta 15 minutes. It really is that close.
  
• Talked to VisigothsPlumbers about what needed to be done, and what additional I wanted them to do while they were all up in my pipes. Then they tried to upsell me on the age of my water heater. I don't think they expected me to ask about a tankless option. See, back when we bought this house, my dad was head of maintenance at a YMCA, and was proselytizing the delights of tankless heaters. We just couldn't afford it in 1990, nor in 1996 when we got the one that's currently in place. But, I have money-to-fix-the-house now!
  
• After negotiation, the plumbers went to plumb the tubs, and the visiting nurse showed up. That was an amusing bit of overlap. She untaped everything and retaped it, leaving the thing sticking into my arm. Also ran an infusion (which was late, but Visigoths) and took blood and vitals. Wheee.
  
• R made dinner, and as we were eating I got a call from an "RN associated with your health insurance" asking me all sorts of bullshit. I suppose there are people who walk out of the hospital, even with a tap in their vein, and proceed to do all sorts of stupid shit. I patiently answered all her questions, making faces at R and C all the while.
  
• After dinner (yummy hamburgers with garlic mashed in, cauliflower, and minor salsa (cuke, tomatoe, diced; add garlic, basil, very small amount of generic store bought balsamic vinaigrette)) C and I worked on making characters for the Pathfinder game that's starting up.
  

C is now asleep on the couch in the air conditioning, and I want to work more on the character but I'm hitting my head against rules. Also, need to infuse. So I'm going upstairs and maybe poke at it there. Or maybe play wow. Or maybe find another book to read.

I CAN DO ANYTHING YAY no not that.
