OMGWTFRAKKINAWESOME! Is that snaggable? I NEEDZ IT. Considering I stole if from . . . **looks at icon properties** . . . apparently from someone named "ereshkigal" or something like that, without ever asking, I think you can safely steal it from me and claim ignorance of its origins. Heee! Thank you!!

I just have to say that personal life mood swings on top of med school mood swings are just fantastic. Fun for the whole family. I'm not going to get any more specific than that. Not at the moment, at least. But I just needed to share that much. On the plus side, I'm getting really good at being upbeat and functioning and appearing all put together when I'm feeling like a mess inside. Liz, great work on keeping it together, but know that you can't do that indefinitely. If things don't improve, and you continue to "feel like a mess inside," seek out some professional help - do you have some coverage to help cover counseling services, or does the school provide personal counseling? If it doesn't get better, or gets worse, don't just let it go on. Of course, I know I speak for all when I say we S'cubies are always here for you (and believe me, I don't discount the help that is), but in your situation, with the mega-stresses of med school - get professional, face-to-face help. I had to do that when my son first became ill over 10 yrs ago, and I did it for several years. I quit when things seem to lighten up for awhile, but then started again when he worsened and was hospitalized for so long. And I continue to do it as I try to recover from (what still feels like) the unbearable loss and pain of his death. I seem OK on the outside - I hear it all the time. But I continue to be a huge mess on the inside. I go once-a-week to my counselor, and I'm going to keep doing that until I feel like I can manage once-every-two-weeks, and I'm going to keep doing that until I feel like I can manage less, or even without. The way this feels, that could be years away. But "mess on the inside?" Not good! DON'T HESITATE TO GET HELP if this doesn't feel better very soon. Unless you note considerable improvement, find out about this and get some help before the end of the month. Yeah, yeah, I know all that. I don't like this because a) this is not how I normally am, and b) it's not healthy, but I'm hopefully going to be resolved one way or another pretty soon because otherwise it'll just be ridiculous. I just needed to vent here cause I didn't want to vent to any of my classmates.

I is tired. Tired is me. I slayed many, many, many usefuls today, and even some creative things (do those count as usefuls?). Time to check the list for things I missed and start a list for tomorrow. But I did just remember to hit our HMO website to make an appointment for Emily to see her doctor about those headaches. Turns out the school clinic can't get to her for a month; we got her the first available Friday morning at Kaiser, the 30th. This online stuff is pretty cool - I went looking for my dentist's hours online because I keep forgetting to call them, and found out I could email them. They called me back a couple hours later, and I have an appointment to get my new nightguard checked on Monday next. It's making my teeth more sensitive, which rather defeats the purpose of the device.

How did Monnie get custody of Castiel? We share him. I in fact lured her to the Supernatural side originally. Ahem.
Picture of random naked angel is very cute. It would be better if it was Misha but very cute.
My son used my debit card and ended up getting it restricted by using the wrong code and didn't tell me. So when I merrily try to buy a cup of coffee this morning and get declined I almost had a heart attack thinking I'd had my money stolen.
Bad child. Bad, bad child.
Heart attacks are not my fave way to start the day.

Speaking of baseball... This nearly made me spit tea all over the kitchen table: The letter-perfect logo. I guess if your team isn't doing so well, you have to find other things to love about it. Well, I thought it was funny. [/colbert]
