Where did the weekend go?

Ugh, so much to study and do, so little time. I'm so badly in I've-got-to-level-my-templar-to-70 mode that I've been putting off all kinds of shit. I don't think I've ever eaten as many frozen dinners in one weekend (blah).

The good news is I have all of today to get stuff done. The laundry's going and I'm about to tackle the dishes, then jump in the shower and wash my nasty hair. I so blame my husband for getting me hooked on EverQuest II. GDU Mournblade =P His pixels are so sexy though. Man if we only looked this good in real life...

Back to the drawing board

I think I've allowed enough time to pass to see whether or not the Septoplasty has helped my chronic head and sinus pressure. Most of the pain caused by the surgery itself is gone. And there is still swelling that has to go down, as well as congestion that needs another week or so at least to clear out. Unfortunately, the pain that was present before and during the procedure and recovery time is still there; where it's always been.

I'm not giving up though. My next course of action will be Botox. There are many reasons I've been hesitant to try it. The biggest reason is I don't like the idea of numbing something that hurts. It was more important to me to find the cause of the hurt and take care of it at the source.

I have an appointment with my neurologist to see what my financial options are. I think the maker of Botox offers some sort of reimbursement program for those who qualify. Most if not all insurance companies refuse to cover Botox for migraines because it's still considered experimental, so any financial assitance I can get would be helpful.

All the shit I'll be able to do if this works. Puts a big smile on my face just thinking about it.

Day 1 done

First off let me say woot to the Steelers!!! Now we've got one for the thumb.

Today was my first day of school - first day in a long time. I underestimated how rediculous the parking would be, so I arrived about 10 minutes late to guitar class. After that was basic musicianship. Boring, I know. Tomorrow I have voice and electronic music studio.

I asked my hubby to bring me to a music store so I can buy a guitar case. Well, it's actually more of a backpack. Got that and some nylon strings because the teacher said those are easier to learn on. Wednesday I'll learn how to tune and string my guitar.

One of my closest childhood friends sent me a birthday card which reads, "HAPPY BIRTHDAY JASMINE. I WROTE AS BIG AS I COULD SO YOU COULD READ IT, OLD LADY." Hahaha, gotta love Tanya for that.

So I turned 32 a week ago and enjoyed the day with my hubby, mom and bro. I love prosciutto, so we bought a pound of that, 1/2 pound of provolone cheese, Italian rolls, 1/2 dozen canollis, and a nice bottle of Moet. So yeah those are lots of trigger foods, but stfu it was my birthday. And because my birthday fell on a good time of the month I wasn't really affected by any of it. Happy Birthday indeed!

Here we go Steelers, here we go!!!

I've been watching the Steelers since my hubby introduced me to football 15 years ago. I love the Pittsburgh Steelers and I wish them the best in tomorrow's Superbowl.
