It was a long day. Work, doctor's office, pharmacy then grocery store and now home. After a thorough eye examination it was determined that I have some funky auto-immune thing (allergic conjuctivitis?) or a bacterial thing. The pharmacy special ordered me some cream to put under my eye and on my eye lids. I also got some allergy eye drops. She said my eye did look icky but we could fix it. The good news is that the structure of my eye is good, no scratched lens or foreign objects.
The pharmacist told me I have to get rid of all my eye make up and contact lenses! Aigh! That's a lot of dinero.
Right now my eye hurts, even after the eye drops. I'm bummed out that I missed kung fu class. I'll set my alarm early tomorrow morning and go then. Since I don't have my eye meds yet I guess I'll wear my contact lenses. I don't think I could work out in my glasses and without them I can only see four inches in front of me.
My head hurts, taking some meds and going to listen to an episode of Law and Order SVU.

Okay, okay, okay, people! I just called Kaiser and for the first time ever I got an appointment with my doctor without having to be on hold for 45 minutes then work really hard at convincing an advice nurse that I really am sick enough to warrant an appointment. I'm going in at 3:30. Will post update after that.
And for the record, Protoplast, Simon is not putting his cigarettes out in my eyes. Eeeewwwe!
Funny side story: I was in the kitchen preparing some food the other day and Trinity goes trotting by with something in her mouth. I followed her into the bathroom and she spit out a firecracker. I had to then yell at Simon about giving the cats firecrackers. It seems Trin was in his room rooting through a coffee mug full of crap and found something of interest. If they learn how to work the lighter we're in big trouble.

I woke up this morning with my left eye red and swollen shut. I took a bath and rinsed my eye and when I got out I pried it open and dumped in some Visine to clear out the red and see what the heck was going on. Five minutes later, after holding a cold washcloth over it I could finally see that I had a blister over my left eyeball. Yes, a big puffy sack of clear fluid covering my eyeball. My first thought was, gee this can't be good. My second thought was, holy crap, I can't go blind before NaNoWriMo! So I'm wearing my ever so sexy cat eye glasses instead of contact lenses and wondering if I should wait and see if the swelling/blister thing goes down on it's own or if I should be running off to the emergency room or calling my eye doctor. I sleep on my face sometimes and will get puffy eyes but never a puffy eyeball. Crap.

So last weekend the girls were talking about Friendster and how cool and fun it is. It's a dating pool, networking place and somewhere to help others meet people. I signed up as "just helping" hoping to make a few contacts for my single girlfriends. I got my profile set up and looked up one friend, Rebecca. Then I got a cute e-mail that says "Rebecca is your friend." Which is cool because, I like wasn't sure before. :) So I log on to Friendster and found that through my one friend (I have more, really) I have over 18,000 contacts. Holy crap. That's a lot. Insane. Wacky. So if you know me in real life and are on Frienster or want me to send you an invite let me know. (Yes I know it's been around for awhile, I'm just a little slow on these things)

Last night was the last night of my improv class. We played "doors" which was a game of making up scenes by walking into "rooms" and then hosting "rooms" for improv scenes. I got to challenge somone to a duel, make cookies and see a male stripper perform all in mime creative use of physial space and witty dialog. I also did a walk through of someone else scene as a clown. Then we went out to McMenamins on trendy-third for beers and tator tots. I was told by one of the teachers that I'm really good at improv and need to keep going to the classes so I can get to a performing level. Neat-o. I also had some positive feedback from my cohorts. Right now I'm functioning on six hours of beer induced sleep.
Memo to self: You don't always have to be the last one to leave the bar.

Portland Weather is insane. We're suppose to have a high of 71 today. By Friday we're suppose to have a high of 48. Summer to Fall in a blink of an eye. At least it's not *suppose to rain on Halloween.
*but it probably will.

Spent the weekend battling a cold. I think I won but I'm going to be cautious this week and try to get lots of sleep and take good care of myself. I will also take it easy on my body by going to the beginning kung fu classes. I'll work up to the harder classes next week. I also need to hit a forms class. I haven't had a really good forms class where I can barely walk the next day.
This weekend was busy. I took Simon to a ComdedySportz show on Friday night so he could see what I've been talking about the last eight weeks. They did a very good job and we laughed a whole lot. It was a very cool feeling to know a handful of the people that worked there or were performing. I felt "in the know."
Saturday night you already know about. Sunday I went over to Rebecca's house for a serious NaNoWriMo cut and paste character/plot development session. The girls made mobiles and big collages. I felt a little too organized and linear by cutting out pictures that I thought looked liked my characters and then pasting them in my notebook and writing up background on my characters. I also have a loose outline and have figured out a prologue that I want to use. I'm dying to start writing but I have to wait until Friday after midnight. Who am I kidding? I'm going to be in bed by midnight.
The highlight of the weekend was going to the dress rehearsal of Bat Boy the Musical! I know someone who knows the costume lady and we got fantabulous seats right next to her. Again, I felt so in the know. I urge all of you to fly to Portland and see Bat Boy, right now. Best. Musical. Ever.
