I don't want to really think about the amount of times I've been needlepoked in the last week. :( I've got so many tiny little scabs in both elbows, a big one in my right hand where my IV was, four or five along the fat vein in my left hand because my veins keep being FAIL in my elbows, and I have a nicely growing collection of sore little bits along both sides of my belly button from the Lovenox.
I really hope they take me off of that soon. a) that drug is damned expensive, even with insurance. (to give you an idea, it's about $95 a pop out of pocket. I do loves my Blue Cross, yes I do.) b) even though I'm at the "ick, okay, injection, whatever *stabbity*" stage with it right now, it still kinda freaks me out that I have to stab myself in the belly with a needle and inject this liquid into me that burns like holy fuckall. There's just no getting used to that, ever.
In good news - still feeling better. Got to go to Whalens with
morlock and
sydneycat earlier because
morlock was picking up a new desk chair for his computer table, as his old one finally gave up the ghost this year (he's had it since he was 12.) This wouldn't seem all that exciting except I have a huge office supply fetish stemming from the good old days where school supply shopping truly was the Most Wonderful Time of the Year. Seriously, the ways to this girl's heart are fine point Pilot Precise pens, extra fat Sharpies, blank college ruled notebooks (composition, if you can find em), and satisfying a lust for cool 3 ring binders that goes back to the point of where the highlight of the otherwise awful school shopping trip was picking out the year's trapper keeper. :)
sydneycat and I were having so much fun that
morlock had time to take the chair home in the car before coming back to shake his head bemusedly at us and take us home.
I has a new pen. Perhaps I should write something with it tonight. Maybe one of you's'll get a letter next week. :D Now if only I could find a nice fountain pen... I've had this bottle of blue ink in my desk for a while, aching to be used...
