Due to leave for Alaska first thing tomorrow morning. I'll be lucky to get half a night's sleep. If we go at all.
Trip might be good for me. And we'd be the only ones from our side of the family at the wedding.
Alaska's forecast is for rain, pretty much all week. Which, of course, means never-ending humidity.
Tonight I spiked a fever - low grade, but first I've had in five years, if not ten.
My skull is killing me. There are spikes stabbing into my eye sockets. Every time I cough, every pain receptor in my skull lights up. My chest is somewhat congested and definitely not happy. My stomach is queasy. I've got shooting pains in my hips. My knees are no better, and really not sure about supporting my weight. My big toes keep randomly flashing major pain signals, too, for no apparent reason. My shoulder's about to give out. I can hardly see straight.
A friend is in pain and there's nothing I can do to help. Someone else has gone off again advocating discrimination - though not under that name, of course. Hardly anyone will even bother returning my calls or emails.
Oh, and Twitter's API has been acting up all day.
I'm going to try to make it upstairs so I can start packing. Meant to do it earlier, but getting off the couch involved screaming pain in several places - as if there wasn't enough just lying down.
Sometimes, I wish I believed in God... just so I could have someone to yell at.
So much for taking a break from venting, huh?

I hope the trip to Alaska goes well (if you end up going).
Sometimes venting is exactly what's needed.
