Just wait it out. Advil will take care of most of it, and it's actually subsiding without (though will see what happens when I eat.) My jaw will be pretty sore for a few days, and I got a dried-out-tongue sore that'll also take a few to resolve.

I'm still waiting for my lip to unthaw so I can eat (which is also so weird, because that was the only one that got a single shot.) So I vacuumed and mopped. My kitchen is clean and dinner is waiting for me to be able to eat it. And I found 15 toy mice hidden under the couch. And I swear I cleaned under there a couple weeks back.

the tree IS going up tonight.

Very industrious, sara. Me, I'm just catching up on the internet and then lying down. And I'm not sure why it's in that order. I did grocery shop on the way home, but it started raining hard so I put off the pharmacy run until tomorrow. Rain or shine, pain or shine, shit gets done Tuesday.

Kelsey Grammer cancelled his own show. I only pay attention because Jordan Hinson, from Eureka, got a job on it and she's close with Colin. So now she's unemployed because he didn't like his own work and couldn't fix it. Seems even more unfair than someone else killing it, somehow.

I also notice that Twilight got knocked off #1 by a schmaltzy rich-helps-poor white-helps-black sports-success Sandra Bullock movie. I wonder if any of the same people saw both movies.

I have a hard time sitting still before 8 pm now. It's a thing.

Man, eating is weird. One muscle in my chin is still awol, and a stringlike line of muscle in my tongue. So everything works, just oddly.

I think I need to ask this when theo is on, because she is always seems to know what to do with of house issues, but...

I have clearwire internet, which is like a receiver which goes in my window and picks the internet out of the air. I have this because I could order online, not talk to anyone, and not have a phone line or cable, and I don't want to change.

I have new windows, and now, when they are closed, I can't get internet. So I have to open my window. But it is cold, and all my head is going out the window, even with the drapes closed and a pillow stuffed in the opening. Any ideas? Should I try taping plastic over the whole thing? Cardboard? I can't deal with no internet, and most nights I fall asleep with hulu on, so the window ends up being open all night.

I wonder if any of the same people saw both movies.

Haven't seen both yet, but I will see The Blind Side eventually. I am a sucker for sports movies, especially based-on-a-true-story ones.

There are insulation kits you can get to put around air conditioners so you can leave them in the window year-round. I can feel a little draft around mine (but its welcome because its right next to the radiator which gets really damn hot).

Maybe adapt something like that?

Oh, good idea Trudy!

I hate to admit after complaining and complaining about how much I had to work at the theatre, now that I have free time, I am pretty darn bored. I should really do some online X-mas shopping.

I'm doing some online Christmas shopping. And counting the minutes until the kids' bedtime.

ita, I hope you were able to fend off the migraine.

I need to get the kids' babysitter something special. She's been indispensable during my recovery.

oh shit babysitters! and I need to get in gear and make the things for the teachers THIS weekend.
