*yawns and stretches* Morning Internets. Had a nice lie-in, the sun is shining and I'm honestly not planning on doing very much of anything again today. I should probably be cleaning up my bedroom and bathroom which are both a bit of a state but I honestly can't be bothered, I'd rather be curled up and just... writing and stuff
Right now I'm watching an anime on Netflix called The Seven Deadly Sins and poking my muse over a Lorne/Sheppard fic
It appears to be Monday morning again. Very rude all things considered, I'm sure we just had one of those. I had a very unproductive weekend - although I did watch 6 episodes of Arrow, 6 episodes of The Flash, 6 episodes of Vixen and 3 episodes of Legends Of Tomorrow. Honestly, if I was watching just one show that would have been nearly a whole season and here's me still 2 seasons behind on all the shows and not even picking up Supergirl yet... this whole 'catching up on the Arrow verse' idea might take some time LMAO
Legends Of Tomorrow took me a while to warm up to it although I'm rather adoring it. Especially Sara, Ray, Professor Stein and Snart - but then I loved those characters anyway... gonna miss them in their respective shows though :( I do wonder how many times Arthur Darvill has called himself a Time Lord rather than a Time Master. Hell knows I do it!
Second alarm has gone off so it's time to do the getting in the shower then getting dressed portion of the morning so I shall leave you with ( Collapse )
Tonight, I need to collect my prescription from the doctors, do a load of laundry and - if i'm feeling up to it - vacuum my living room floor. Here goes Monday!
Yesterday ended up being a complete no-show. I achieved nothing, didn't get out of bed until lunchtime. I felt like a complete stereotypical depressed person and had a duvet day. Although it was pointed out to me that I'd had two very busy weekends and some stressful work days and was entitled to a rest. I still feel like I wasted the day but do feel a little better this morning.
The morning is almost over but it's been a good one. I was up Tesco bright and early this morning, got my shopping done and put away. I'd been craving Rice Krispies for a few days and treated myself to some this morning... best bowl of cereal ever I swear.
The rest of the morning has been spent listening to music and reading.
Firstly, please excuse my language but 'fuck you Photobucket'- I spent a nice amount of time yesterday morning uploading the pictures for the Wibble-A-Thon only for it to tell me I have to pay $399 to be able to link my pictures... I don't think so. GRRR So, finding a new site for photo hosting then.
Secondly, dear Mirtazapine, we need to discuss your understanding of the word 'drowsiness'. Back on the anti-depressant as of Friday, take it around 9pm that night, it knocks me out by 9:45 and I slept like a log until 11am yesterday morning. 13 hours sleep. Woke up feeling groggy as all hell and like the Sahara had relocated on my tongue. Spent the whole day feeling drowsy and slow and heavy. Not fun.
Today I set an alarm for 8:30 so that I'd get up because I have stuff to do. I need to get to the grocery store. And, if nothing else, I want to do laundry and take out the recycling. I also have an Amazon delivery due to the locker down the road.
Good morning *looks at clock* um... good afternoon! A little later than I like to do my wibbles but I had a line-in this morning then went down into town to see my friend Emma who's moved her awesome little shop Vintage Geek into a much bigger shop and was having a grand opening party. There was a TARDIS and a dalek and cake! I bought myself a Harry Potter notebook and have my eye on a Alohamora doormat :)
I'm definitely starting to feel more like myself. Not quite there just yet and I did have a complete freak out over buying glasses last night but I talked myself through it and think I'm ok. I think.
So, for anyone who isn't following my on social media, I've had an, uh, eventful couple of days.
Late Wednesday night into Thursday morning I started coming down with the virus that's going round - Vomiting, diarrhea, thumping headache, aching muscles. Forced myself to go into work Thursday morning but got sent home after 45 minutes after throwing up in the office (ok, sprinting down the office to the bathroom but still!)
Friday morning I was feeling mostly better. Hadn't thrown up in like 8 hours, was keeping water down and felt more like myself so I figured I'd go to work. Got up, showered, dressed and was just leaving the house when my stomach cramped. Got to the loo, and while I was sitting there I passed out. Clean forward onto the floor in front of the loo, woke up sprawled half in/half out the bathroom. All around my left eye was grazed and the frame of my glasses were snapped - the lens was absolutely fine though! I was also feeling woozy, dizzy and sick. As the next hour went on, I started feeling very drowsy and my eyesight was getting a little blurry - but I wasn't sure how much of this was not having my glasses on.
Luckily there's a branch of my opticians in the small town I live in so I walked down and yes, they had my frame in stock. And because my lenses weren't damaged, they were able to just pop them into the new frame.
Then, I just caught a bus up the hospital because yeah, I knew I needed to get checked out. I'd hit my head pretty hard and was displaying some concussion symptoms. Being only like 9:30 on Friday morning they were fairly quiet so I got seen quickly. Very thorough doctor gave me a good once over, was a little concerned about the blurriness in my peripheral vision so she sent me for a CT scan. No brain injury so they kept me in for a couple hours for obs but did then just clean my face up and send me home with a long list of what to do, what not to do and 'come back if this happens'.
Over the course of the weekend some wonderful bruising has come out. I am literally black/blue/purple/red from my nose to my ear and up to my hairline. There's a wonderful smudge of purple across my forehead and the bridge of my nose. My eye is grazed across the top of my eyebrow and right across the top of my cheek right under my eye. My eyelid and top of my cheek are so swollen that my eye is swollen shut.
It's such a great look. Although, I am really glad it happened this weekend and not in two weeks because con starts on the 29th... Hopefully I should be all healed by then!
