TLK-isms

One of my arms (and corresponding hands) has felt oddly cold, off and on, since the spider tried to eat it off.

I went into TLK’s room on Saturday and put my hands on her arm.

Me: “Feel my hands. Does one feel colder than the other?”
Her: “Erm…. No. They feel the same. You might want to try someone else.”
Me: (laughing) “Who? The dogs?”

Even though Ginger gets quite verbose at times, I’m not quite sure she’d have anything to say that I’d understand. I’m not sure…she’s…coherent, really. 🙂

I CAN be brave, and it’s my brother’s birthday…

I am “winging it” without Ambien now. I’m going to have to sleep without hypnotic medication. Can you believe it? So far, so good, though. I didn’t sleep through the night, but I did here and there, and got some rest during the remainder of the time.

Ambien is very addictive, even though they say it’s not. It may be more the feeling of a guaranteed nights’ sleep that’s addictive, rather than the drug itself.

In any event, I’m going without it now.   I’ll be fine.   🙂    Do you know that Ambien is used to help Air Force pilots sleep after missions?   Also, it’s supposed to be helpful in the treatment of restless leg syndrome.

In other news, my brother’s birthday is today!  I enjoy having a sibling only 15 months younger than me. Just as I am thinking, “I can’t believe I’m (this age)”, his birthday comes along, and then I realise I’m not the only one hitting those ages. hehe 

I love my brother.    He IS a nut.    The last time I was with him, he tried to scare the heck out of a large flock of birds (very large crows, I believe) in the Wal-Mart parking lot by aiming at them with his SUV and putting his foot down (heavily) on the gas pedal… braking just before he got to them.   

Off they went.    (no birds were damaged, although they might have been scared slightly during this scientific experiment)    I should hasten to mention that I love all animals, for the sake of any PETA employees who might be reading this.

The funny part was the man standing in the parking lot, he noticed afterwards, staring at him like “WTF are you doing?”

I hope he has a fun day (although I suspect he is working!)
