optimistic
I'm coming off one of my medications and it's making me non-functional. I keep twitching like I'm having a seizure and then I lose all motor functions. I can't move or talk, I can only lay motionless inside my uncooperative body and try not to panic... which never works. It's really fucking scary and I can't stand it. Xander has been amazing taking care of me during all this. I really hope this gets out of my system soon but I kind of expect I'll be having a lot of these episodes over the next three months while I'm coming off the last of my old meds.
Brain damage aside, we've had a lot of good luck looking at houses thus far. We found a really great one that I'm about 70% sure we'll get. I'm still searching new listings just in case though. It's incredibly exciting to be settling down and getting hitched..! It's my future and I love it.
My mother's coming to town this weekend. I'll be heading to Heroes Con on Friday before she gets here but I won't likely make it for the rest of the show. I plan on spending Saturday in a wheelchair at IKEA to give me some ideas for the new house.

stressed
I feel like I'm going crazy. My father is just setting the screws to me and trying to drive me into a nervous breakdown. He sends me fucked up emails about "Need the Good Lord to help me. No one else can." and won't tell me about his health problems but will CC me emails to his sister about how bad his health is and how he doesn't want to die like his mother did. Everyone is apparently trying to fuck me over in his opinion and he goes on and on about how lonely he is.
Seriously, I love my dad and this shit gives me panic attacks and seizure-y episodes because it stresses me out so much. Every time I talk to him, it's like being stabbed in the chest. How the hell am I supposed to handle that? He gets so insulted whenever I try to tell him not to do certain things... and yeah, I want to know how his health is, but he gives me the info in such a depressing fashion.
Meanwhile, he won't listen to a word about how MY health is. He thinks I can go out and get a job right now or that I can run errands for him and that my neurotherapy is taking too long. He doesn't understand how not well I am and makes me feel guilty for not being able to do things because I'm sick.
FUCK.
My mother's coming to visit on the 19th. She bought her plane tickets without even asking me if the dates were okay. I don't want to see her. She understands even less about my fibromyalgia than my dad does. She doesn't get it. She's going to make me miserable.
I don't know what to do anymore. The two of them are intolerable.
On a happier note, today is Xander's and my two year anniversary. He's the one really positive thing in my life right now and I consider myself so lucky to be with him. We're still planning the wedding for next summer and are trying to find a house to move into when our lease is up here. (Insert gushy romantic sentiments here.) I am so retarded in love with that boy.

It's been just over two weeks since I've had a cigarette and hell yes I am proud that I haven't killed anyone left.
Xander and I are both sick with the plague and are hanging around home playing Elder Scrolls IV, which, for some reason, we didn't get until a few days ago. We take turns doing quests. If it had VATS, it would be a perfect game.

Day 6 of cigarette cessation and I'm doing pretty well. The desire to smoke is beginning to wane. It's so much more convenient to not smoke. I just need to make excuses for myself to go stand out on the balcony and enjoy outside every now and again.
My dad's still not speaking to me. Cause, like, I didn't answer the phone one day when he called me and then I called him back three days later. So now he's trying to punish me or guilt me into feeling bad about it. My dad and I are really close but he's being childish over nothing... I'm going to wait until he cools off and wants to talk to me again. I don't want to call and argue with him.
I'm about 2/3 of the way through a cute black merino wool wrap with ruffle detail at the bottom. It's super soft and cozy. I also have a pink and purple lucha ski mask that I'm finishing up. I'm not sure about my next project. I'm considering knitting a striped Ernie sweater for Xander.

I haven't paid attention to the internet for the past few days. If you've said anything important, I probably missed it. Sorry.
Day 4 of cigarette cessation. I'm doing surprisingly well. The patch is keeping me from committing murder, but it's still pretty early on.
Went to NC School of the Arts today to see “Il mondo della luna” (The World on the Moon), a steampunk opera. It was completely awesome and much better than the last opera I went up there to see, which was just boring as all hell.
My father's apparently not speaking to me because we didn't talk for "four days". I tried to call him and got nothing but monosyllabic responses, so I told him he could call me when he was prepared to be mature and not insult me.
My mother, who has not tried to contact me in a couple weeks decided to call me today - while I was at the opera and politely had my phone turned off - and decided that something horrible must have happened to me since I didn't answer and called my dad to find out my whereabouts. My parents hate each other and never talk unless it's an emergency involving me.
So I called my mom after the opera, then called my dad to apologize for her calling him, only to find that he was pissed off and not speaking to me.
My parents make me insane. I love them but I just do not understand.

- 12:33 I would totally punch someone in the face for a cigarette right now. I should take some klonopin. #

I've been smoking since I was 14 and have decided recently to quit. Because it's bad for me? Because it makes my fibromyalgia worse? No, because they've increased the price of cigarettes and it's too expensive. Seriously, I never thought they'd do it in NC. This is where the tobacco comes from. But yeah, I don't want to pay twice as much to keep doing it.
So I'm on the patch. It makes my arm itch. Xander's doing the nicotine gum. I still want a damn cigarette. Must distract myself.

Why you should not be scared of swine flu:
In the United States, there are 162 laboratory confirmed cases. There are 399 probable cases, 149 suspected cases, and 1 death.
The country's estimated population stands at about 306,334,000 people.
Seriously, do some math. WHO declares possible pandemic, but that doesn't mean that it will kill you. It just means that it's highly infectious. A disease must meet the following criteria to be considered pandemic:
- Emergence of a disease new to a population.
- Agents infect humans, causing serious illness.
- Agents spread easily and sustainably among humans.
STOP BEING PARANOID. YOU'RE NOT GOING TO DIE. Remember the avian flu? It only killed 59 people worldwide. It wasn't even a real pandemic as it couldn't prove sustainable person-to-person transmission. Swine flu hasn't yet proven to meet pandemic requirements. And this is why the news is evil.
