averygoodun42I be brain dedded at the mo. No good reason, either. Just - poof. brain went all dedded.
Worst bit is that with the son grounded, I can't really turn on a show to watch, as he'll inevitably come down and join in, which is against his grounding.
And I'm out of frivolous children's books to read.
*sigh*
This hasn't been a very good week so far, to be honest. Monday saw Page (temporarily) tossed out of school for violence (hence the grounding) as well as another one of my molars biting the dust. Rather literally. A little bit more crumbles off every so often, so... Bleh. On the plus side, it doesn't hurt beyond a very slight, dull, throbbing pain.
I know the dentist is going to recommend a crown, given the size of the breakage, but, well, this and the fact that all of my teeth are showing signs of major enamel loss, is making me think about getting dentures. So much so that I'm going to discuss that with him on Thursday. I've definitely given up most hope of saving my teeth. Especially as the more care I've given them, the last few years, the worse they've got.
Did I mention I'm only 35? Sjogren's SUCKS!!!
On the plus side of that, I am pretty sure that it can wait a few years yet (giving me time to save up for everything), and, having read a few Sjogren's forums, it sounds like getting the dentures (and losing the fading teeth) will improve my health and life overall quite a bit. I will be discussing this with my rheumatologist, however, since it isn't just Sjogren's that I have. And the extractions will be enough stress to potentially put me back in a flare. The whole process will definitely take planning.
Then today started off with a bang when my neighbor and I rear-ended each other as we were backing out of our driveways. Only slight, superficial damage done, with a scratch on our rear corner and her tail-light breaking, but it was still an embarrassing and unhappy start to the day. We were both equally to blame, but I feel bad that her car suffered actual damage that'll need to be looked after. I think we'll be paying for half that tail-light.
Oh. And the school super just called. Snow day tomorrow. Hopefully the college will call, too. Before we go to bed, that is...
Good stuff. There's gotta be good stuff...
Page had his yearly check-up today and I wimped out of asking for a battery of blood tests to see if he's got any lurking auto-immune issues because, really, he's been doing pretty well. Besides those nasty infections in the fall, his health has been quite decent. We did ask for medicine to control his asthma during the spring and summer months because I don't want him to have to restrict his exercise like he's had to the last year or two.
Downside to the check-up is that that he's a shrimp (20th percentile) with a slightly damaged right ear drum. Stupid ear infections.
Plus side is that everything is still well within normal. And since my family (at the very least) is known to have late growth-spurts, I'm not worried at all about his size, given that he's "perfectly proportioned" as the doctor said.
School is also being a bit of a hassle lately. I got two warnings for where I parked this week, meaning the administration is getting anal about the parking issue without actually giving us any solutions to the parking issue. The parking at the school is so stupid, and only minimal attempts have been made to make it better. And, worst of all, it's only going to get worse as the other college is built, taking away the overflow lot. All of that means that now I have to remember to put the parking ID in the windshield (poor me, right?), as well as make sure I'm at least ten minutes early every day so that I can find "legal" parking. *rolls eyes at their constantly changing minds on what constitutes legal parking places*
The accounting program I'm learning is also being a complete bastard. Sage 50 is horrible. I mean, it's pretty incredible what all they stuffed into that program, but, well, the little inconsistencies are driving me nuts. It is really not a user-friendly program! In fact, it is worthy of Snape in all its bastardish glory. Bleh. It almost makes me want to become a programmer just so I can make it better. And that's saying something.
Plus side to school is that excel is nifty. I also really like my prof. She really knows her stuff and is fun. Also, having school only three days a week is better. Way better, actually. Granted, the homework level makes the extra day off necessary...
But I think that's enough bitching. Life is good overall. Even without caffeine.
ETA: Just to top things off, one forgotten > at the end of the lj-cut html equals a formatting horrorshow. Bleh. Too much computer nonsense in my life! Bleh!
