Rainy Snow Day

[cabenson]

So that nasty winter storm we were expecting? Pretty much missed us. Got tons of rain and a little ice. I got up early in case it WAS crappy out so I could get to work on time, and Mrs. CB said not to worry, it's only rain. Twenty minutes later, she comes in and tells me they closed her school! For rain?
I guess the side streets and sidewalks had enough black ice from earlier in the morning to cause some concern. I went ahead and came in early.

Actually, I'm glad Mrs. CB has the day off, she was looking mighty pale this morning. I strongly urged her to get some rest today, but she is a stubborn woman and talked only of cleaning the house. We are meeting Daddy #3 for dinner unless the weather worsens between now and this evening.

I have been working on a JJ/Emilymusic vid for Criminal Minds. Almost done with the rough editing, then I can spend a day or so with timing and effects and changing my mind about everything. Hope to start my Epic fic next week...hopefully, if I don't get distracted by Emily/Strauss hate sex ;)

After getting my CT results, my doc put me on the antibiotic Levaquin for 21 days. By day 3 I was experiencing the systemic joint pain and inflammation. By day 5, I had stopped taking it. Very few MD's know about this serious side effect, my doc included, and that really concerns me. This stuff causes tendon ruptures and I actually popped my shoulder out(while I was SLEEPING!!) last year while I was on it. She probably thinks I'm crazy, so to get rid of me she set me up with an ENT next week. I'd really like to get rid of this infection and start feeling good again, it's only been 4 months...

Nothing else new in my world. What's new in yours?

My God, my Doc just put me on Levaquin for a urinary tract infection. Yesterday, I thought my arthritis was flaring up. It could be the medicine. How many milligrams were you on? Mine is 250.

One 500mg pill daily. It does feel like arthritis. Check the info sheet to see if it has the warning on it.

Would you like some of our winter storm? It took me just over two hours to get to work this morning. I live *six miles* from the office. Winter is so fired.

No thank you, keep that crap to yourself.

Well, they've been threatening us with snow for a couple of days now... which causes mild panic, over here. But so far we've just had a bit more torrential rain, and dullness. Which, personally, I'm more than happy about. :-)

Very little else goes on in my world, so the most exciting thing that has happened is that my two new CDs arrived and have turned out to be as excellent as I'd hoped. :-)

Enjoy those CD's!

Jeez Louise, woman! Do I have to come over there and slap that infection outta you? Here's hoping Teh ENT helps.

School closed for rain? Mrs. CB leads the life. Of course, she's at home a-cleanin' & a-slavin' for you and the boys in between nips of white wine while daydreaming about the Cliks...

How did you know?!

More like nips of Tylenol.

I hope this visit brings some results as well. I was feeling pretty good in NYC, a week after we got back...crap.

I can't imagine having to be away from my gal for more than a few days. Stay strong, and talk when you can...all will be well.
