I Lied.
I lied to you on Monday. I forgot I had a glass of wine at dinner with my parents on Saturday night.
I think the medication is beginning to kick in. Michele and I had a moment that could have gone quite bad, but I was actually able to keep a level head and communicate like a real grown up. Usually when we have a disagreement, my mind starts whirling at about 100 miles an hour, and I can't formulate a single thought. I feel like my mind has slowed down. I don't think that is the intended effect of the medication, but I'll take it and be joyful. I can tell you I haven't felt depressed in awhile. Whether that is my natural mood swing or what, I can't tell you. Now that I think about it, I'm not sure I've had a lot of feelings in any direction except exhaustion.
I haven't had any more of those anxiety things at night, but I'm also not sleeping through the night. I'm taking Tylenol PM or Ambian at all. I'm going the natural route as much as possible. SO~ I've increased seratonin and decreased alcohol and sleeping pills.
Statistics is going pretty well. I made a 97 on my first homework assignment. I missed two really stupid things. This is okay, though, because I know that now I will not miss these things on my exam. Better to miss it on the homework than on the test!
Mmmm. A lady from upstairs just came around with a cart full of snacks. I got Skittles and Diet Coke. Yummy.
Social Psychology has me terrified. I was in stats the other day and heard the women in front of me talking about how hard Dr. H-J is. Her tests are supposed to be tricky. I'm missing class tomorrow due to Bette, and I feel horrible about it. I know I should go to school instead, but I'm not going to. Because I'm bad and evil.
This weekend I plan to do exactly nothing. I feel like I haven't seen any friends in a long time, but I have simply got to stay home and rest. Besides, I have got to open that Soc Psych book since the test is next Thursday. Ick.
Scraggles continues to be WAY cute. Her hair sticks up really funny. There has been a lot of squeeking coming from their cage lately. Lots of mousie fights. Nothing serious, though.
I'm wearing new glasses today at work and no one noticed. *sniffle*
I think that's all I have for you today. I'm actually pretty busy at work, and right now I'm busy putting my Skittles into their respective color groups.
