I'm (mostly) back

I have spent the better part of this last week feeling like i was drunk, or at least buzzed. The medication for the vertigo works, but gives me blurred vision. It has been such a hoot trying to find the chemical balance between the room spinning and not being able to see; really, it has. This weekend i spent on my couch alternating between horrific and heartwarming as i delved into my video library, the library's video library and our beloved Redbox to watch (in no particular order): Season 2 of The X-Files several episodes form Season 3 of the X-Files The X-Files Movie (the real one not whatever came out last year) Ponyo Angels and Demons Monsters vs. Aliens Season 1 of Glee (or the first half... did it only have 13 episodes?) Season 1 of Flight of the Conchords the first half of Season 1 of Fringe Under normal circumstances i'm sure that mixture of entertainment would have been confusing, but between the vertigo and the vertigo medicine it all seemed quite normal. I feel like i have gotten the symptoms pretty much under control and will keep taking the meds so that i can work this week. [yesterday i felt pretty normal so i decided to start weening myself down - BAD idea] Luckily i have plenty of refills. OH! That reminds me... walking home from the library on -well, whatever day i did my last post- it occurred to me that i had to be confused about the 5 refills on my 'scrip so i checked it when i got home. Indeed i was confused. The 5 i had stuck in my head as the refill number was the 5 from the fact that there were 50 pills in the bottle. There are actually 8 refills. Yes, EIGHT. i've never heard of anything so ridiculous. Anyhoo, things should be getting back to normal around here. Or at least what passes for normal around here. In that spirit i would like to share this picture with you. I took it in Florida over christmas and it is what i want in my front yard: ahhhhh... tikis

I can only hope that the season 3 X-Files eps included "Piper Maru" and "Apocrypha". Krychek rules!
