Music: Fatboy Slim - Wonderful Night
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Ah. Finally recovered.

It's not until well after a severe cause of stress that I realized just how much of a basket case I've been. Right now, I'm patching myself up after the LSAT stress. Most commonly, I break out in pimples. Bad cases result in styes. How bad was I before this?

So bad that I developed an all new symptom: Hives. There's a huge swath of them on the back of my right hand, and a much smaller patch on my left. Oh yeah, and a stye on my left eye, but that went away a couple of days ago. Man...I am one pathetic sack or neurosis.

Speaking of patching up, I'm in recovery from the first of two dental appointments to fill some cavities. My dentist is very good, but for some reason I could still feel when she was drilling on my right side (not much, but a little sensitivity). To fix that, I got *more novacaine.* Completely bypassing a happy medium, I ended up with the entire right side of my face asleep. I even blinked slower on that side. I thought it was hysterical, but laughing was so tough that it made me want to laugh even more. That's irony, if only in the Alanis Morissette sense of the word.

Now that I'm at work, I'm glad I did just about everything yesterday. The sooner I finish up here, the sooner I can go home, pack, and hit the road for Ol' Bucknell. I struggled over whether it was too soon to go visit, but in the end I figure it's been a little under half a year since I was there, plus it's Homecoming and that's when alums are supposed to visit anyway. I'll be getting on the road sometime tonight, but I gotta remember to pack my "goodwill gifts" (read: booze) and hit the cash machine. I have ten bucks in my wallet and that's not gonna help anyone, least of all me since I'll probably end up eating on the road if it gets to late to make people wait for me.

Now, if you'll excuse me, it's colder than a politician's heart in here. Gotta figure out how to turn on the heat.
