Concussive notes, Tuesday edition.
Apr. 9th, 2002 08:23 pmI haven't posted a whole heck of a lot because I haven't been feeling all that well. My headache has subsided considerably (it has just now popped back up a little). My girl suggested caffeine (since she knows I'm not a big fan of taking medicine) to constrict the blood vessels in the head, and it worked all day. This is good, because I had a lot of work to do (imagine that, work at work) and had to stare at a computer screen.
Yesterday, I felt like total butt. I got up earlier than I wanted to and was having a hard time sleeping because my neck hurt whenever I would try to turn my head. It was grey and nasty out, and I just felt worn down and tired. I went to work with a pretty obnoxious headache. I had 3 clients, and 2 showed. Score for that. One was an intake, though, which means an hour of paperwork. (Though they took 2 forms away, so it only took a cool 45.) I managed to get out of there in time to go to kickboxing, which is good because I can't usually go on Mondays, and now I've "stocked up" an extra attendance in case I need to miss one later.
Between my head, my neck, and my quads (from TMBG), I wasn't at my best. I had a good time anyway. We did forms mostly, which aren't very head, neck, or quad intensive. When I got back to my car, I was cyb3r3d by
jost. Ended up calling a temporary moratorium on discussing ickiness with Jennifer since I really was having a hard time concentrating, reading, and writing. Besides, it's an "in person" sort of thing anyway. Things ended up comfortable and pleasant, which I'm glad for, because well, I don't like ickiness. (Does anyone?)
I knew I was sunk when I wished she was around since I wasn't feeling well. I'm a /terrible/ patient, and don't like 'acting' sick, so I didn't want her to take care of me in the literal sense, but I really wished she was around to snuggle with and watch movies or something. So I guess I'm still a sap, even concussive.
This morning, I was greeted with disequilibrium, and I was having trouble recalling certain odd words. (It took me a long time to come up with 'autoclave' when I was chatting with
kungfoogirl - I kept saying 'centrifuge.') The dizzy, motion sick feeling has returned, but I'm not sure if it's from the head injury or because my blood sugar is really low, since I haven't eaten since noon. (I'm remedying that right now, have food cooking.)
Hopefully, I will be up to par tomorrow, since Wednesday is my early morning and I go to all the schools and stuff. And after schools, I have Supervision, then Team Meeting, and then two back to back clients. Then kickboxing. On the plus side, my neck is almost entirely pain-free. YAY.
Okay, eating now.
