Switchback
So I’m feeling better. The mystery of my sudden onset blues has been solved. I’m having a period. I was experiencing a little PMS. My shock and inexperience is excusable though. I haven’t had a period since November 2007. Not only has my poor body been put through the horrors of the WG and subsequent treatment I still have polycystic ovarian syndrome. I assumed I was infertile. I still think I am truth be told, but this was a surprise. I had to buy pads today because I haven’t bothered to restock after the last one.
I’m visiting Horatio this weekend, so this adds an extra layer of excitement. I have my beautiful ring back on my finger now too. The resizing was a success and it is wonderful to have it back where it belongs.
I also just finished eating an entire 275g bag of Doritos for lunch. I feel I ought to be ashamed but all I can think is: ‘damn, that was good’.
The last component of our TV area redesign arrived yesterday before I left. Weasel tells me that she has put it together and tidied the cords. I am so excited to see it and take some photos.
I was reading Liz [of Inventing My Life] the other day and she said she has a personal goal of commenting on three websites each day. I resonated with me and I’ve been trying to do the same thing. I have a very hard time putting myself out there. I’m scared of looking stupid or offending. I’m also a little nervous opening the door here more. Plus, I’m a snoop at heart, the point is to ensure they don’t know you’ve been through their stuff right?
I’ve ‘finished’ the layout for Morphine Breath 2.0 – I just need to fix the 404 page and double check I have all the plugins I need installed. I’m really pleased with how it turned out.
BlanketGirl is making a great effort to try and come visit me next month. I’m crossing my fingers and my toes that the passport gods smile upon her and that the sale price lasts. It would be so amazing to show her around my home and country. And if things go well? She and her family may well end up moving here. The mere thought gives me goose bumps and giddy thrills.
P.S. Anyone who has tried to comment in the past, I have altered my policy so now anyone who comments should see it immediately. If I find this doesn’t work out for me I’ll go back to the other way.









Just wanted to say hi – enjoyed your post and I’m glad that you’re feeling better!! And I don’t blame you for eating a bag of Doritos for lunch, I love those things!!
Hey, thanks for the link!
The first time I left a comment was really scary, it was kind of like approaching a celebrity that you happen to see on the street. But I think most of us who blog actually want the attention – even with my recent problems, it never would have occured to me to make the blog completely private! Now I comment all the time, and I’ve actually made some good friends that I only know through our respective blogs – but we wouldn’t have know each other at all if I never made a comment.

I’m glad you’re feeling better. Even if there’s a reason for the blues it never makes it any less sucky. Thanks for the comment, too. I think it’s a great idea to comment on new blogs. Every month I go through links of people on my blogroll and find new blogs that look interesting. I add a couple to my RSS reader each month and now I’ve got quite the collection of interesting blogs I read and comment on. If I find I keep skipping over certain people’s posts, then I take them off my RSS reader.
