Headaches & Tahoe

My tension headaches have started to come back, so yesterday I ended up having to get a shot to kill the three day headache I had. The pharmacy didn’t have the other med my doctor prescribed me, but I have an appointment with my psychiatrist on Monday to go over my meds. My antidepressant is also used for headaches/muscle tension. I’m hoping to try moving to just a muscle relaxant, since the only time I really get moody anymore is when I’m in pain from the headaches. And since the muscle relaxant part of my meds aren’t working, I’m sure the antidepressant isn’t either.

I’m still pretty tense through the neck/shoulders, but at least I didn’t wake up with a headache today. I’m heading up to Tahoe this afternoon to spend tonight and tomorrow in a friend’s uncle’s cabin to celebrate the birthday of three good friends of mine. So I’m looking forward to that.

My 10 year high school reunion got canceled, otherwise I’d have been going to S.R. this weekend. First it got rescheduled last minute from Oct 6 to Oct 27, and then canceled because not enough people could make it.

Next weekend my pirate and I are going to a B&B in Napa for our 1 year anniversary. 😀 Yippee!

I’ve started making tacos again at home, I forgot how yummy and easy they are, and it helps that I can stand to look at the raw meat now (though I still dump it from the package to pot without touching it). Someday I might even manage to try meat balls or meat loaf… probably with plastic gloves.

We went to an Indian restaurant for lunch last weekend, and then to the Indian grocery next door, so I’m going to try making some curry and stuff soon.

I have some friends down in So. Cal., but so far everyone is safe from the fires there. I really hope they get them under control soon!

Also, my dad just got back from his trip to India, so I’m glad he’s home safely, I missed talking to him on instant message regularly.

I think the only Halloween plans are to buy a bag of candy to give out, and watch Rocky Horror Picture Show since my pirate has never seen it.

Time to get some chores done before I head off to Tahoe!
