Bunny’s TMI

More than you ever wanted to know about what goes on in my life and my brain.

Christmas in Santa Rosa

I went home for Christmas on Saturday. Mom’s car had broken down so I picked her up, went home to get my brother and stuff and then headed to her boyfriend’s for dinner. My stomach had already been feeling a bit off so I didn’t manage to eat too much. After that we went to our church’s Christmas Eve service which I always enjoy. I actually managed to get in a good solid night’s rest and sleep in while they were at church Sunday morning. We headed back home and watched the original version of The Bishop’s Wife, which was really sweet, and then Alex & Emma which was cute too. A tad depressing though so I’m swearing off relationship movies from now on. Which actually is good since there are too many things I want to see anyway. I also downgraded my netflix account to 2 movies at a time instead of three since I’m not watching them as much as I was.

Now I’m just hoping my stomach will settle down some. I’m going to call and see if I can get back on my old medication. I started taking the new happy drugs on Wednesday and my stomach didn’t get bad till Monday, so now I’m not sure if it’s a side effect from that or not. I’m also planning to drag myself out to the store today for some white bread and other plain stuff that hopefully will agree with me more.

Oh, and I found out that they don’t seem to make my favorite teas anymore. :( I loved the Vata and Pitta Maharishi teas. And after writing that, I google them… and this time I found them! I guess just no stores available to me or my mom carry them anymore.

Feeling mostly better

I’m emotionally feeling back on an even keel. My sleep cycle is still a bit out of whack, but not as badly as it was. My stomach however has been giving me trouble. It’s upset whether and whatever I eat it seems. I’m hoping it’s just a temporary side effect of my new drugs and that it will go away as I get used to them.

New drugs

I’ve got my fingers crossed that they work quickly.

Bleh x 2

I didn’t reread my last post so I don’t know what I’ve mentioned. I’ve been on my meds at least 4 months now and am adjusting to them…. so they no longer work. Friday was a hellish emotional rollercoaster for no good reason. I played WoW but I turned off guild chat to avoid any social interaction or seeing MM which was too painful. I got in a good cry that night. I finally turned guild chat back on later and stayed up till 4am. I managed to make it to my checkup at 1:15pm Saturday. I made the interesting discovery that sleep depravation seems to counteract my depression so I was up till 3am and slept till 3pm. I ended up staying up till 3am again and came into work at 1 today for a meeting at 1:30. Not sure how long I’ll stay, I’m feeling ok other than woozy from lack of food which I’m working on fixing. And tomorrow is the doc appointment so hopefully I can get some new meds then.

Bleh.

More insomnia + sleeping in late. I feel really bleh today. I should have just stayed home so I could get in a good cry and get more sleep. I hope this is mostly just my meds starting to not work and that switching to new ones will keep me from feeling too much worse. I know it’s at least a little bit other stuff too though.

Holiday Par-tay

Before I forget to do this (again!), here’s the rundown on the Christmas party I had Saturday Dec. 3rd. PH showed up early and helped me run around getting the last minute cleaning done. JP & SP were the first to show after that and we got into watching some of my Christmas DVDs of the Rankin & Bass stuff like Santa Claus is Coming to Town and The Little Drummer Boy. JL made it and proclaimed that he’d “do” Jessica (the future Mrs. Claus). We all joked about the psychadelic song scene she has that none of us remember from the tv version. I managed to get JL to help me decorate the tree after I finished putting lights on. I decided to slack off some this year and we (meaning he and later BH’s old roommate) only put up a fraction of my ornaments.

More people showed up and we got into cookie baking and playing games. TC beat me at bean farmer by just 2 gold! I can’t remember what order we played games in, but we got into a few rounds of my muppet uno using our house rules (jumping in and stacking draws). I need to get a copy of Fluxx for next game day. The gift exchange went well too, not much stealing went on. TC got a light saber tree topper. Ok, not really, but I’m sure they could use it for that too. I got a neat little top with a holder and string you use to spin it. Only the next day there was only 2 inches of string left. I wonder where it went. (Hint: devil kitty’s tummy.) There were no disturbingly bad gag gifts like the creature I ended up with last year.

Summary: Movies! Neat. Cookies! Yum. Games! Fun. Gifts! Yay. All done!

I’m going to Disneyland!

Ok, so I already went. Placeholder till tonight when I hopefully remember to blog about it before I forget too much!

And looky! I remembered!

Might as well cover the whole weekend while I’m at it.

Couldn’t sleep Wednesday and ended up taking Thursday off to catch up on sleep. I just love how my insomnia works. First I can’t fall asleep. Then when I finally do I can’t wake up! I’ve also started to feel somewhat hopeless (aka depressed) again and realized that I probably have adjusted to my medication and need to switch to something else for a while. I don’t think it’s been quite 6 months yet, but that’s about when I had to up the dosage before when I was just taking it for my headaches.

So, Thursday I slept and read I think. Friday I went to see Narnia with MM in Davis. I liked the movie, the crowd was interestering, lots of kids and they really got into the movie with cheering and clapping certain scenes. There was only one time I couldn’t hear the movie because of it so I didn’t really mind. The theater was really noisy beforehand but other than the cheering stuff they were quiet the rest of the time thankfully. We had Chinese beforehand… which now that I think about it I think I forgot my leftovers at his place. I hope he enjoyed them! Then we watched some anime and played some WoW and I finally got to kill the big dragon and got a bigger bag to hold all my clothes! Now I just need nine more of them. Hehe.

Saturday I finally went to the training for the spa stuff so mom and I can get the rest of the things we ordered. It wasn’t as boring as I was afraid it would be and we finished an hour early. I think I was just tired afterwards and went home and read after a stop at Dimple on the way home to exchange a DVD I’d forgotten I already had for one I ordered. I’m just keeping my fingers crossed that they’re actually able to get the Claymation Christmas DVD I also ordered. They had to reorder it again when I picked up Jack Frost (another Rankin & Bass one). Mom came over Saturday night around 11:30.

Sunday we got off to a late start as I had trouble waking up and still had to pack for the trip. And then I forgot the bird stand I was supposed to take to EA, luckily I remembered it soon enough to turn around and go get it. Mom and I took turns driving and got to our hotel around 8 I think. Around 9 we went to see EA and drop off the stand and got to meet her cute new kitten named Crash. Afterwards we had dinner at Coco’s, which I need to do more often as I still love their tortilla soup.

Monday was Disneyland. Our hotel was close enough that we just walked there. I had trouble waking up, but it worked out ok. I think we got there around 9:30, a half hour after the park opens. I left the map at work so I’ll update the rides we went on tomorrow during lunch. The very best part of the whole day though was the amazing fireworks show at the end, it was just awesome!

Tuesday I actually got up on time since mom agreed to drive the first part, so I just went back to sleep in the car. The trip home took about 7 hours and since we got home around 3:30 mom decided to drive back before rush hour traffic instead of having to wait till after. I just read and relaxed so I’d be ready for work today.

Must have been naughty this year…

… or just eating too many cookies. Went to the dentist for my checkup today and he found two new baby cavities I need to get taken care of. Oh well!
