Sleepless in Utah-momma

[DLA]

I know we have a time difference between us, but do you not sleep either?  It's 1am here.  I'm waiting for my hair to dry after high lighting it.  Take my new driver's license photo tomorrow.  That mug shot will be on there for 4 long years, thought I'd at least try to have decent colored hair.  But I don't sleep anyway.  Am a tad hypo now and that means my days and nights get reversed.  Grrrrrrrrrrrr

I really don't think that regularly glowing in the dark is a qualification for working in the nuclear med department.  :-)

Took a nap this afternoon and I'm getting tired again.  Go to sleep you crazy insomniac.  :-)

[DLA]

Have you considered being a nuclear specialist?  How much more do you need to be qualified?  LOL  The whole staff knowing you already should be a good reference.  Sheesh woman!   And I think it's bad cause all vampires know me by name and arm.  =^[

Hey, my insane insomniac friends!   Glad to see that both of you are doing okay.  I normally can't get on line during this time but I'm sitting in the hospital waiting room (my fiance' is being tested) and brought the work laptop to get a report finished.  The have free wireless here so, of course, had to jump on and say hello.

Stopped in the cafeteria earlier and the entire nuclear medicine department was in there.  They recognized me and said "hello".   That's not a good sign when an entire department at a Level 1 trauma center can recognize you!

I hear you both about the swelling.  My finance' saw some pictures of me the year before my thyroid problems taken when I was in Washington D.C. finishing up my Master's degree.  I was a comfortable 115lbs then - now I'm 160lbs.  Nothing I do can make me lose weight.  He looked at the photo and asked who the skinny girl was - not realizing i was his bloated fiance'.  :-(

Yeah, I'm going to hang a few photos in the yard to scare off some varmints too.  :-/

Tinfoil hat back on - don't want what's left of my thyroid problems to remember this place and start acting up again.  :-)

Press on Chicken Club!

Hair thing went okay, I guess.  Not as much highlighting as I'd hoped.  Didn't leave it on long enough, was scared I'd have freaky huge white streaks.  Got plenty of the smaller ones already, that's what I'm trying to hide!  My hair is brown and gray so is that salt and pepper or just if it's black?  Coffee and sugar?  LOL  Latte and cream?  I know nothing about coffee obviously.  Can't stand the stuff.

Am waiting anxiously to hear what happens today.  Not too anxiously, I'm about to fall asleep sitting her, but I really want to know.  Really..............zzzzzzzzzzzzzz.  =)

Morning insomnic buddy :)

Just checked back on your threads to see if the hair thing went well.

Sorry:(

Nice to see Utah back on - she posted a bit yesterday. Head must be easing up.

I don't know - I just looked in the mirror - I am not sure if you and I are blow fish buddies - or if I have some swelling to worry about. I got a thickness in the back of my neck (of course on the left side mostly) and I got this double chin thing going on lately- not sure if it is fat - or swelling. another feature I am so pround to flaunt.

Anyway - have a great day - I am off to shower now and get to my blood work appt.

Boy, I really need sleep.  Just reread that post.  Can't spell or put sentences in proper order any more.  Brain fog gets REALLY bad on no sleep.

[DLA]

The mug shot was horrible!!!!  Am going to use it in my garden this summer to keep away all the birds and varmits.  The hair thing, unfortunately, was not a vanity thing just a desperation thing.  boohooboohoo  And then when I got up this morning. . . surprise, surprise, surprise. . .I had blown up like a blow fish in the 2 1/2 hours of sleep I got last night.  NO I did not spend all that time coloring my hair.  RLS and Mr. Arthur and Mr. Ritis wouldn't let me sleep last night.  Finally just passed out from sheer exhaustion.

YES!  Got my new thyroid meds today.  YIPPEEEEE  Takes very little to excite me, huh?  Am so excited to start them in the morning.  I seriously need some other interests in my life.  Picked up more Requip for the RSL while I was there also.  If they don't let up am going to have to increase that med, too.  Just what my liver is asking for.  LOL

That's why I own a guinea pig.  They go in there cage and don't need walked.  They say dogs are really smart, but you can train cats to go on a litter pan.  :-)  LOL

Morning Hun -

Good Luck on that photo tomorrow. I hope you look "fab" . Smile pretty........ and wear your tin foil hat proudly. Just keep the foil strips in your hair from the highlight kit

LOL just kidding.

Don't you get to pick up an Rx after your DL picture?

[utahmomma]

Highlighting your hair for a driver license photo!  What a great reason for not sleeping!  LOL!  (Oh, I hear strains of "your so vain" playing in the background.   Kidding!!

It's midnight here and I was feeling very guilty for not being on the forum after my *doctor induced* migraine so I thought I'd better play catch up.

I am going to bed now though.  Hey, I just took the dogs potty (it's 24 degrees here - brrr!) so if I *don't* go to bed (with them, of course) soon I'll have to do it all over again.

Best of luck on your mug shot tomorrow.

Night, night.
