You guys. It's been a week, let me tell you.

See, a week plus ago I had a cold. It sucked, but colds often do. Problem was that this cold decided it'd be cool to turn my chest into a crash pad. This being several varieties of not on, I saw my doc, and he gave me another asthma inhaler to work with the one I usually use for emergencies. Hokay? Hokay. For a day or two it did what it needed to and all was fine. Then one day I felt a little jumpy after taking my morning dose. And it went all downhill from there.

The rest of the week played out like a version of Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas for weenies. This shit made me paranoid, anxious, distracted, jittery - basically convinced I was smack in the middle of Bat Country. Not. Fun. Especially at work.

Of course, this doesn't occur in a week where I can hide in my house and wait for the chemically-induced crazy to pass. Nope! This was a week with Shit! Going! On! Every day, there was something else. Dinner Monday night with friends at a Mexican restaurant (wherein the waiter not only forgot to put in my order, but told me there was no avocado in what I ordered, when there totally was. Manager/Owner saved the night with a free cocktail and lots of apologies, but wtf). Tuesday was Trivia, Wednesday a night off, and yesterday was

whtegrlwthehair's bday celebration (which was awesome), and tonight I get to see

redstapler for a bit before running into Brooklyn for the fundraiser that

quasisonic's husband put together for Tsunami/Earthquake victims in Japan. Tomorrow? More

redstapler after a doc visit and some time with the folks. I don't plan to move on Sunday, but that may get torpedoed. The tired. I has it.

Only other thing of note this week is that we have officially booked our wedding venue!! :D One thing down, 2389473479 to go, but that's a BIG piece of the puzzle taken care of. Still, it was hard to enjoy thanks to the fact that I was tweaking my brains out at the time. I'm excited and freaked out all at the same time. This shit is daunting. But onward and upward, as always.
