Apr. 2nd, 2015 08:26 amThe headache came back during Scott's FATE game. I took more sudafed and Tylenol then. By morning, the headache was back full force. I've taken sudafed, Tylenol and Amerge in hopes that something will help. I may try some alcohol later because there is likely to be a tension component to this one-- I have my mammogram today, and I have no idea how I'm going to manage it. They've told me that they won't let me do it sitting down, and I really can't think that I'll be able to stand on one leg long enough to get through the whole process.
In Scott's FATE game, our group started trying to follow up on some leads. We really have only the vaguest bits of information right now, so we were flailing a little bit. Scott has stolen some NPCs from a campaign I ran about fifteen years ago (it was a GURPS game in which I told everyone to build the character they wanted and not to worry about the points because I'd balance them. It worked surprisingly well). I laugh every time they come up, and I have to squash my tendency to make assumptions about them based on who they were in my old campaign (though I think Scott's using them for much the same purpose I did).
One unfortunate side effect of all the sitting I've been doing is that my behind really hurts. I think I actually have a bruise where the seam of my underwear was pressing in yesterday. I think I may start wearing shorts under my dresses (pants won't work with the boot) and skip the underwear for a while, at least until things stop hurting.
I never got back to Scott's sister about the idea of going out for lunch before my mammogram, so I don't think we're going to. I wasn't at all sure it was a good idea. Getting out of the house appealed, so did having food I don't usually have, but I really hate using the walker any more than I have to, and I'm going to have to use it a heck of a lot today.
I have to find the piece of paper with the instructions for my appointment on them because that tells us where to park. I'm not used to worrying about that, but Scott's sister will need to park somewhere. I suppose she could drop me off and then wander around town until I called her to come get me, but I don't think that's what she has in mind.
I'm going to wash a bit with a washcloth after breakfast. I haven't washed since the bath on Sunday, and it's definitely time. The difficulty will be doing it while sitting down. I expect, too, that I'll get water everywhere. Oh, well, it's not as if I have many options.
I need to email the mother of Cordelia's best friend to find out if her kids are coming over here tomorrow. There's no school tomorrow or all of next week, and I offered to take them, but she said she was trying to get some time off and might keep them at home some days. I don't know if she's gotten that time off or, if she has, which days. It would be nice to know as it affects my plans considerably.
