Well, I am the proud new owner of a bottle of cough syrup with codeine. My doctor's medical assistant took pity on me after I left her a rambling voicemail this morning. I have high hopes for some sleep this evening. If my hopes are crushed, tomorrow will be a doubly miserable day.

I am in the process of re-training myself how to be a graduate student. Silly, but true. After the very-super-extended vacation I granted myself (for no other reason than . . . I'm lazy), it was time to get to work this weekend. Boss needed stuff. Left the apartment today and remembered why I used to work in coffee shops all the time. Sometimes working in the apartment is wonderful, but when I'm having a difficult time motivating, there are just so many distractions (I mean, I can roll around with Maynard on my bed every 10 minutes if I so desire - who could resist). Sure, it wasn't my own stuff yet. But baby steps. At least we have evidence again that I can, in fact, work.

I made myself a hair photo-journal this evening. Sure, go ahead and roll your eyes and/or laugh. However, it seemed the best way to track the progress of my hair. There are a million plus one products I can use, 10 times as many product combinations, and a ton of different methods of dealing with curly hair. This way, I can keep track of products that generated results I liked, products that generated results I didn't like, see if my hair changes with the seasons, and so on and so forth.

The furballs, as I type . . .

I have to say, I think it's an absolute riot that he lays like that. Looks like he has no neck and huge shoulders.

Yeah - I thought the pictures summed their personalities up rather well.

I am glad you finally got some cough meds that will hopefully help. I think its ridiculous that you had to put up such a fight for them though, just because it had codeine in it. Codeine (in cough meds or tylenol with codeine) is OTC here, and as long as you can give the pharmacist a good enough reason why you need it and aren't in there every other day asking for it, you get it no problem.

I hope it works! I'll keep my fingers crossed! *hugs*

Me too!

Oh, I know. *rolls eyes* There are plenty of things that are over the counter in CA and the UK that I wish were OTC here . . . cough medicine with codeine is one of them. Diflucan is another. Hell, we even have to give our driver's license info up if we want something with pseudophedrine in it now.

Cough medicine with codeine is a godsend!

Your kitties crack me up! I want to squish them both. Such pretty fluff.

God yeah, it certainly is.

Haha - they crack me up too. I am constantly squeezing them. Hehe.
