A couple more details on my not-a-heart-attack yesterday: The neuritis was apparently an artifact of the injury from my thyroid incision. The doctor's exact words were, "The good news is it's not your heart. Still, don't ignore this. If it happens again and lasts longer than ten minutes or so, call an advice nurse." So I'm a little less embarrassed than if it had just been gas or something, but I'd rather be embarrassed than dead any day, so no big deal.

Productive girl is productive

Proud of myself for all I did today:

1) Got up early and went to work.
2) Went home from work after 4.5 hours, before I was too tired to run errands.
3) Took a nice walk with someotherguy.
4) Went to the County Clerk and filed Fictitious Business Names for 42 Magazine and JAFSP (the small press that's going to publish our books)
5) Went to the post office and got a PO box for the magazine (P.O. Box 3086, Oakland, CA 94609).
6) Made yummy chicken and rice for dinner.
7) Organized all my medical receipts, and all the receipts for the magazine, and recorded them all.
8) Talked my mom down, for about an hour, from just ending it all. Truth be told, we're figuring out what to do if and when she decides to check out. I'm sad about it, but ultimately completely in favor of giving her all the power in this situation.
9) Took a shower.
10) Remembered all my meds, and took them all on time.

Now, I know a lot of those sound like easy things to do, but my energy has been iffy lately, and came and went today, so the way I figure it, I rock like a rockin' thing.
