Yesterday was the worst day I’ve had over the last three months of insomnia.  I woke up so weak and the MS nerve pain was tres yuckola, so I ended up spending most of the day in bed.  The weakness was so bad, I actually couldn’t hold myself up to work.  How messed up is that?  I was so thrilled that I slept last night!  What a difference from yesterday to today.  Paws crossed for another great night tonight!

At one point today, I decided to take out my recycling.  I opened the containers bin and I noticed a very large bee buzzing about.  I said “You’re free, buddy!”  I dumped my recycling in then the bee came back around and stung me in the wrist.  Are you serious????  What the heck did I do?  I’ve had many bee stings in my adorable, short life, and they never affect me more than a mosquito bite.  This actually felt like someone sliced open my wrist with a knife:

After the next two hours, the pain increased and my hand eventually went totally numb.  It was a nice break from the pain it caused.  Thirty minutes into it, the numbness died and the pain came back.  Stupid jerk bee – I freed you and you do this to moi?  Blarg!

Other than that, today was great!  Although Boo wasn’t too happy!  She had to go in the stirrups today for her annual medical.  She was not thrilled when we got to the vet’s office.  The nice thing was that one of the technicians brought out some friends for Boo to meet:

I explained to Boo that this is what she’s supposed to look like, if she wasn’t a freak Sphynx.  She came in to examine closer:

One of them must care that they’re nose to nose with a freak.  Nope.  Couldn’t care less:

Yeah, that was interesting.  The tech brought two more kittens out, and Boo’s reaction was the same.  What a dork.

Today’s symptoms: Felt so good today compared to the last three, and many of the days over the last three months.  I still cannot believe how much a lack of sleep affects me (or I guess anyone) physically and emotionally.
