Jenmar - Really hot Freddy Krueger.

A thirty degree change in temperature overnight sucks for arthritis, dude.

 

This is gonna be one of those days where everything takes three times as many spoons as usual.

 

Sitting hurts, moving hurts, even typing hurts. I have never been happier for this SlideIT keyboard on my phone than I am now.

I would like for my birthday to be over now, please.

And, please, no spoilers, I didn't get to watch tonight's ep.

So, I am operating on between thirty and forty-five minutes of sleep right now.

I was about to go to sleep last night when waterofthemoon's roommate popped into the (thankfully open and non-broken) AIM Chat I had going with her and a couple of other people to say that he needed unperfectwolf's mom's number ASAP because he had just gotten home and no one was there but there were electrodes with gel on them on the floor and the neighbors said one of the girls had been taken away in an ambulance.

It took a couple of hours to get a hold of people and find out what happened, but it turned out that waterofthemoon had had a seizure - which was why her roommate had her phone, and that unperfectwolf went with her but her phone went dead so she couldn't be contacted.

Even though we were contacting the wrong family members (we thought it was unperfectwolf, because when an ambulance is involved it's 99% of the time her) we were able to contact people and let them know what we were aware was happening and have the right people call the hospitals to find out if unperfectwolf had been admitted.

The reason we were able to do this was an ICE Post. This stands for In Case of Emergency. It's a post that is traditionally postdated WAY back to make it the very first entry of your journal. It's FLocked to certain people usually and has any information needed in case of an emergency (if there is suddenly no word from someone who updates consistantly on a regular basis, or if someone you chat with daily doesn't sign on for a few days or, like this, something happens and your roommate doesn't know the right numbers, but knows you have friends online).

ICE Posts usually have your full name, your cell/home phone number, and the names/nummbers of parents/siblings/BFFs/anyone who might know what happened or need to be notified if you know something happened. Mine is here, linked off my profile and sticky post, and FLocked to certain people. If you can't see it, please do not take it personal.

Please, I beg of you guys, make some kind of an ICE post and, please have at least one friend who knows your LJ/Twitter password who can post/Tweet if you end up in the hospital or something. Your LJ and Twitter friends will want to know.

( Just a small one. )

Also, I don't make as many posts here as I used to because, like. I've had people tell me that everything sounds interesting but they really think everything I say about my life is a lie, and other people say that I whine too much about my job and money and, yeah. It kinda sucks when you have to think this hard about what to put in your own journal, but that's how it is.

Ma forgot I had the day off so she came in at six-fifteen to try and wake me up. Poor Mommy, she was all rushed and zoomed through her shower because she thought we were gonna be late. *Pets her*

And then I woke up at 9:30 to discover why my back has been so icky to me the last few days and why I have been wanting to watch Extreme Home Makeover more. :(

And because everyone else is doing it...

One little compliment can make you feel great. So give me a compliment, anything in the entire world, even that my shoelaces are pretty. Put this in your journal. Once you get some comments, put that entry in a memory or tag and when you are feeling down, just go to that entry and this will remind you how great you are.

Comments are going to be screened so none of you will know if I'm uber-popular, who gets over 100 comments on this, or who's a total loser and doesn't get any.

Okay, so poisontaster asked me five questions.

( Length. )

1. Leave me a comment saying anything random, like your favorite lyric to your current favorite song. Or your favorite kind of sandwich. Something random. Whatever you like.
2. I respond by asking you five personal questions so I can get to know you better.
3. Update your LJ with the answers to the questions.
4. Include this explanation and offer to ask someone else in the post.
5. When others comment asking to be asked, you will ask them five questions.

I swear, a moment ago the song was Don't Stop Believing by Journey. Promise.

This is the medical issue, because... It is.
