[no sound of fury, no shot of pain]

I could not sleep last night, I slept for about an hour and was up. I took a Tylenol PM, hoping it would help but all it did was make me thirsty. I played WWF and tossed and turned and finally got up. My dad was up and started telling me about his very detailed dream. Mom got up about an hour later and I went back to bed. I tossed and turned for an hour or so longer and finally fell asleep around 5. I woke up at 7 and 9 to get a drink and mom woke me up at 11 reminding me that I was supposed to take Pep to the vet this morning. I got up and ate a bowl of cereal. As I walked back to the kitchen to put my bowl in the sink, I noticed it was pouring outside. I told mom I couldn't take Pep to the vet until it stopped raining and started watching TV with her. I kept nodding off so she told me to go back to bed, lol. So Pep and I went back to bed for an hour or so and when I got up the rain had stopped. I got dressed and took Pep to the vet.

He has an ear infection and a sinus infection. He got meds and some cream to put on his nose to help keep it from getting crusty and gross. After the vet I went to get my car aligned and headed home. The other dogs were happy to see Pep except Ginger, she always has to "yell" at him for leaving.

Mom was asleep and dad was checking out my car-the work the mechanic did and installing new wiper blades, so I cooked dinner. Nothing fancy; smoked sausage and baked beans with blueberries and whipped cream for dessert.

Tomorrow, I am going to get my oil changed, radiator flushed and an inspection. Wednesday I am taking dad's truck to get an oil change. I have to start on my list of chores soon and get started studying for my test on the 22nd. It seems like it's so far away but it's gonna creep up on me real quick!

I might go to the doctor tomorrow, my finger is still red and angry and I have some dry itchy/sting-y patches under and around the corners of my eyes. I thought it was irritation from my eyes constantly watering (damn allergies) but today the whole area under my eyes was swollen, puffy and hurt like I had a sunburn. IDK if I am allergic to something new or if I my regular allergies are getting worse or what but it's not normal or comfortable :(

ETA-I had a thought after I posted this that my facial swelling might be from MSG (from the crappy chinese place) so I looked it up (here) and that could totally be the reason AND could have been the reason why I couldn't sleep and why I was so thirsyt! Frakking MSG!
