: Aches and pains :
It's been a trying couple of days since Monday morning. I had my grand opening event in Cambridge, Massachusetts yesterday, and it went well. It's just tiring flying up and back the same day, having to go through airport security and squeezing into shuttle-sized planes. At least I didn't have any incidents with security this time. I even managed to smuggle some lip gloss through without detection by putting it in my pants pocket and going through the metal detector instead of the X-ray machine.
While everything went well at the event, I've been regretting getting work done on my teeth, as they have become very sensitive and yesterday the temporary bridge wiggled free, exposing the bare teeth underneath. This made it very painful to eat or drink anything, so I haven't eaten anything since I had a late lunch at 3 p.m. in the Boston airport yesterday. I have an emergency appointment at 1:30 today to get it fixed.
The other setback I had recently is that my white blood cell count on my last blood test came back high for some reason, so I'm having to take it again. If it remains high, this could jeopardize my SRS until we can figure out what the problem is. I haven't been feeling sick lately, although a bit run-down from all the activity. I've had some periodic rashes break out on my legs, but no real cause that I can discern. I think it would help if I just took things extra slow for the next couple of weeks before the blood test (which will be in early December). Fortunately Thanksgiving is coming up, and I've asked to take Wednesday off next week to make it a five-day weekend. I have three more days to take before the end of the year.
Yoshi (my minivan) has also been having some problems - there's an awful noise he makes when I first start him up in the mornings, and especially when I turn the steering wheel. I have to bring him into the Honda dealer this weekend to get that checked out. Hopefully it will be nothing major, since I would like to avoid any big expenditures with SRS coming up. In fact, I already scaled back the dental work I was planning, partly to save money, and partly because I've been so disappointed with the results so far.
Last night we went to the big Barnes & Noble in Paramus and I got two books, Teen Titans - The Future is Now and Supergirl: Power. The second book is a follow-up to this one that I read several months ago.
Better get back to work now. Hope everyone is doing well.
