Lessee... got a few things to mention...
1. My Nephew
Little guy is fine. Sorry if I worried anyone; the tests came back a while ago. Far as I know, he hasn't suffered any more seizures, real or imagined. Though seeing as my sister is a nurse, like mom, he might have to put up with some of the stuff I have. =P So, continued prayer might be a good idea! XD Don't tell her I said that though. There's pros and cons to having a nurse for a mother.
2. Christmas Swag
Not much to report here. Just a couple presents from my parents and some exchange gift stuff I swiped from my uncle.
- Cold Days by Jim Butcher
- A Tolkien Treasury
- a book of Mr. Rogers quotes
- a "One Ring" keychain
- a handheld Tetris game
Last item I gave away to one of the cousin's kids who seemed to be eying it. After scolding him for snooping in my gifts, I offered it to him. Figured it was better than letting it collect dust on my desk. What do I need it for anyway? Got Tetris DS at home. And it made him happy. =) S'what Christmas is about, right?
3. Fun Books
In case anyone's wondering, yes, I cracked open Cold Days and started reading it. And finished it. Only two days; yes, I'm that fast. Quite the ride, but I won't spoil it. I doubt you can guess what happens though! If you don't know who Jim Butcher is, slap yourself for me, then go look up The Dresden Files at your local library. Read Storm Front and you'll see what all the fuss is about.
The "Tolkien Treasury" book should be interesting too, though I mostly got it 'cause there are recipes in it! I look forward to trying a few of them and see if the Tolkien fandom knows their way around the kitchen. I doubt many of their clubs would refuse you if you learned how to make good food! Seems to be a universal thing.
4. My Health
I got sick on the 19th, and I'm just finally getting over it. I dunno what I caught, but it was nasty. Cold, for sure. Maybe the stomach flu. I just couldn't eat much at Christmas dinner (All that tasty food! D= Nuuuuuu!), and my sinus cavities decided to turn into rubber cement. Ugh. Thank heavens for Mucinex and a good immune system. I should be fine and dandy by New Years, if nothing happens.
5. The Pills
I am also back on anti-depressants, though I'm not exactly sure why. I guess mom thinks it's a good idea, and the doctor she sent me to thought I sounded like I was. *shrugs* Even though I had a psych evaluation a while back, and I wasn't depressed then. But whatever. Unless it prolonged the stomach bug, I don't think it's had any pronounced side effects, and I do feel kinda good most days.
Though... there's a big difference between being happy and being joyful. These pills make me happy. I'm not entirely sure that's a good thing or not. We'll have to see.
That's all I can think of for now. Still unemployed and mostly broke, but will be taking some tech classes soon. Hopefully, I can learn a trade I enjoy and make good money doing. Take care all, and God bless.
