I am 36 today. Doesn’t really feel much different than 35, but I think it’s running the same psychological scheme on me as getting a minivan did. It’s just not the same rolling with the windows down listening to Bon Jovi as it was in my SUV. And the van gets worse gas mileage. Go figure.
Today I’m celebrating with a bottle of Tylenol, a cold compress and hopes of not tossing my cookies with the nausea. I am still stuck in this vicious cycle of migraines. Nothing seems to help me break free, but the Demer0l and Vic0din from the ER Monday night after I passed out again sure did put a dent in it. After being euphoric for several hours, I can appreciate why people get addicted. I’d love to wander freely with an “eff you” attitude and not caring if my feet ever touched the ground again. For some reason, when I was under the influence it was tolerated, but if I’m just in a bitch mood people take offense to it. Odd, huh?
Be well.

So I don’t check in for a couple of weeks and you fall apart?? It’s good to see that the docs appear to be getting you back on track. I hope you are feeling better.

Another birthday wish to you!
If I was a celebrity, I’d so be addicted to vicodin. Got some once with a root canal or some such thing. Hello Happy! Loved the stuff. I swear I’m not as weird as this makes me sound.

Jacquie..I swear we’re cut from the same mold, a brother of another mother or some other method of sharing DNA…
On my wish list for when I’m rich and famous: Eff you meds – won’t be picky on the brand name, but I ain’t injecting noting – and things that make me skinny. I’d have lipo once a week if it made my jeans nonbinding. What? Stop inhaling pizza and those 5 pieces of cheesecake I brought home last weekend and my jeans will fit? Yeah. Okay.
I’m going to work on the piece of chocolate oreo cheesecake now (wore jeans with a tad bit of stretch today). I’m rationing it for those of you who think I’m terribly freakish with the amount of cheesecake I bought.
Love,
Princess Vicodin

I think I lost your blog feed again! Happy Birthday and OMG on the migraines! I have had bad ones…Check what meds you are taking. I found that target brand clariton was giving me blinding migraines. I even had a CAT scan to check for tumors! Turns out it was the ingrediants in the Target brand. I have to pony up for the real clariton…
Hope you feel better soon!

Thanks, Spacemom…I’ve had them for years, but this is the worst they’ve ever been. We are looking at EVERYTHING and some.

I’m a day late because Bloglines sucks but I hope you had a happy birthday. So sorry you still aren’t feeling well.
My doc gave me some muscle relaxants and last night was one of the best nights I’ve had in quite a long time
