Happy things, days 10 and 11 of 8

[serene]

Yesterday's happy things:

1) I really like my new GP
2) I was able to get my medical records for him, finally
3) I think he's going to take my pain seriously
4) I read my medical records, and the long journey to "you have a perfectly healthy heart" is documented there, and made me feel healthy and good
5) End of work; beginning of vacation
6) Several long phone calls from wtfpotatoes, including lots of iterations of "I misses you!"

Today's happy things:

1) My boyfriends!!
2) TIME with my boyfriends!!!!!!!
3) Grilled cheese sammiches
4) Craptastic movies like "Nick Fury, Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D.", starring -- yes, you guessed it -- David Hasselhoff!
5) We're not getting a cat
6) Or a 20-foot-long python
7) Or a guinea pig
8) A couple more long phone calls from wtfpotatoes, who has made up with my mom, it seems, and that's *really* good.
9) First full day of vacation, spent vacationing
10) I have figured out how to get my required six to seven hours of sleep every night: Stay in bed for ten to twelve hours. I don't *want* to spend twelve hours a day in bed, but if it means I wake up in the morning and I don't feel like a psychotic maniac who is destined to chew off the faces of my loved ones (yeah, that's a bit of an overstatement), then I'm good to go.
11) Friends and family who are totally supportive of my need to spend twelve hours a day in bed

:-) Guinea pigs meet the criteria she has to work with (no cats -- allergies; no dogs; something that can be confined to a cage that's reasonably small; no snakes that will grow to 20 feet, though smaller snakes are acceptable; etc.), but she met one at a pet store and it stank, and it bit her, so she changed her mind. We'll see. She may just have to wait a year until she's 18 and has a place of her own.

(And we won't even get into my feelings about captive animals.)
