I Wish I Had Ambien.....

My roommate got back from Ireland tonight (she's been gone for 6 or 7 weeks) and told me how she spent hours all cozy in the rented oceanside cottage writing her novel and how she could see a lighthouse out her bedroom window. I'm a lover of lighthouses, so that alone made me want to jump on a plane and live there! And while swapping our"what-have-you-been-up-to-since-I-saw-you-last" stories, I told her that I became a grownup while she was gone and started a blog! I said I'd only posted one thing! She asked if I'd written anything about my health issues as of late.....and, hmmmmm, nope. Haven't. When I told her I'd actually written about The Creek, she just laughed. Which is all one really can do about that! So I decided that I'd say a thing or two.... Not about the health stuff tonight, cause I'm still a work-in-progress, and will update when there's something to report. But there was a funny-slash-hateful night recently....so Saturday I had my sister and some nieces/nephews over for pizza and a "Twilight" viewing (which we never watched due to all the chatting). When they left I decided to have a party of my own with a couple of tablespoons of Nyquil (don't judge me....I don't have an Ambien script!) Then the itching started....like, that crazy "I'm-allergic-to-something" itching on my hands and feet. I'm about to head to Smiths at 4am, when I find a benadryl (only expired last July, so it's ok still) and popped it. Totally worked. Then, I decided I needed some motrin for the monster cramps that showed up totally uninvited (nervy...) but had to eat something with them. What's the most healthy middle-of-the-night snack, you ask? A handful of almonds, of course. While chewing I felt some pain in one of my molars then realized the almonds weren't THAT crunchy....and pulled a piece of tooth outta me mouth! Could it be any more hateful???? So in the middle of the night tomorrow (11am) I get to go see good ole' Dean. That's Dr Robinson, DDS for the sake of my visit. More later, I'm sure it'll be at least 3 thousand 50 dollars.....I'll let you know. Moral of the story? We probably shoulda watched "Twilight".
