the_rckToday's radiation session was pretty awful. It ran three times as long as it should have because the trio of guys who were supposed to do it couldn't figure out what they were doing. Mid-way through, they called in someone who actually knew what she was doing, but it still took a long time because she was trying to teach them what to do. I was thoroughly wobbly and in a fair amount of pain by the time I got out of there. I'm just really, really glad that it was Scott waiting for me rather than someone else who might have had somewhere they needed to be.
I made the trip to the radiation center without my compression top on. I completely forgot about it when I was getting ready to go. I think I can do without it in the car now-- The ride was a little bumpy, but I didn't end up hurting very much.
A nurse responded to the email I sent yesterday that talked about my various issues of exhaustion and so on. She was adamant that the radiation couldn't be responsible for any of it. I think it's awfully coincidental that the exhaustion and chilliness and appetite difficulties correspond to the start of treatment, though.
We have parent-teacher conferences in about an hour. I've set an alarm, so that we leave here on time. I don't trust my own sense of the passage of time right now. I don't expect we'll hear anything surprising, but checking in is important.
I've been trying to go through my files on my laptop to find all of the MSWord stuff and convert it to some other format. I no longer have Word on my laptop, and the version I used to have was pretty darned old. I don't want to lose access to those files. I also need to go through and find all of the AppleWorks files so that I can get them to Scott. He's got software that can open them, and I don't. I'll give him the MacWrite documents, too. I don't have much hope that he'll figure out how to open those, but why not try?
I've been looking at people's Yuletide letters in hopes of finding something that will get me writing. I don't know that I will end up writing anything for it, but I would like to. I'm just so very, very tired, and story ideas seem to be distant. Not signing up for Yuletide is definitely the right decision. I'd be almost guaranteed to default.
