So, about my day

[valarltd]

The day started by taking Jonner to the ear doctor.

He was VERY good. Poor little guy had a terrible case of White-Coat Fear, but today he hopped into the chair, answered questions, said Ahhhh, and cooperated beautifully.

Looks like surgery again in the fall. He needs another set of tubes. Ordinarily, kids quit needing them at 5, but he gets ear infection in the summer as well as winter. So, another set, which should hold him until he's 9, and his eustachian tubes get wider and more vertical. At least intubation is a same-day procedure. They do it, watch him for a couple hours and then send him home.


I didn't feel well, so I went back to bed. I am a GROUCH when people try to wake me up.

We had turkey burritos for lunch. Chicken something tomorrow.

Work is boring tonight. But I won a free liter of coke.

We had a brown-out, which means the stairwell doors shut, the fire alarm (2 ft from my desk) goes off, and all chaos breaks loose. Power's back on and it's quiet.

I think i know where I've gone wrong with "Wolverton Mountain." if not, I have a Plan... Wolverton Mountain can be VividSected, and I'll premiere "Don't call my name in battle."

I had to have tubes put in twice. When I was three, I think, and when I was six. I still remember the second time. X_x make sure to have them give him pain medicine before he wakes up. Mom assumed they would for me, and they didn't. Not cool. I used to get a lot of ear infections when I was younger, and I had to take a lot of antibiotics, and the doctors think that's why I have arthritis now. My doctor took me off dairy products when I was in third grade, and the ear infections went away, as did a lot of sinus stuff. I'm not lactose intolerant, but I'm... something, and milk and ice-cream and sometimes cheese and stuff will give me cold-like symptoms and earaches if I have any, so normally I don't. Rice Dream, the vanilla enriched flavor, is just as good as milk in cereal. *nod* and in instant breakfasts and stuff too.
Just some random suggestions of things you probably already knew already. ^^; I'm going to be so sick in a day or two >>; All I've eaten today is ice cream and potato soup, which my parents made with real milk instead of rice dream for some reason.
