tobermory's Diaryland Diary ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- My head. It is full of mucus. I think I�ve finally determined that I have a sinus infection. I web.md-ed my symptoms and it would seem that if you tilt your head forward and it feels like it might explode then it�s likely a sinus infection. I left a message for my doc and hopefully she�ll call me back and be willing to phone in some sort of �script that will make it go away. Web.md also mentioned warm compresses, so I�ll give that a whirl tonight. If I don�t get rid of this soon Steve is going to divorce me because I�ve been making Exorcist-like noises in my sleep and therefore, he�s not getting any. Sleep that is, although feeling yukky also puts a crimp in the love life. Despite the head o�pressure I managed to get out this weekend to go to a Derby Day party on Saturday. I picked the winner (along with 8 others at the party) and won a couple of free drink tickets. Who knew being a sentimental fool would bring in a winner for me? I picked Barbero for probably the same reason my dad did � my mom�s name was Barbara. I did manage to find out that I do not like mint juleps. I don�t know what I was expecting � maybe something light and mojito-esque? � but bourbon and me, not so much. I guess I�m not a Kentucky gal at heart. I did wear a hat to the party although not a new hat � it was a lovely wide brimmed grey straw hat that I wore to my cousin�s wedding about 10 years ago. Let�s see, this is the second time I�ve worn it so that brings the per wearing price down to $125.00. Needless to say, I did not buy the hat for myself � it was a gift. Sunday I managed to be a bit more productive and I (finally) cleaned the house. There�s nothing grosser than spending every night horizontally on the couch mere inches away from a cat-hair matted rug and not having the energy to do anything about it. I did a full cleaning of the bathroom, a major vacuuming (including the heating registers and windowsills), three loads of laundry including sheets and towels, dumped, bleached and refilled the litterboxes, and I swiffered the kitchen floor. Then I went out to see �Brick� with Tam while Steve went out to play soccer. I really enjoyed the movie even though the rapid fire teenage hipster slang made me feel like a complete loser oldster. When I rent the DVD I�ll have to put on the closed captioning � I still won�t understand the meaning entirely, but at least I�ll know exactly what it is that I�m not understanding.
