Ok, it's time for another personal update. I'm starting to work myself back up to a level of 'normal' with the advent of my first full week of full and restful nights of sleep. This past Sunday I rejoined the Western Ave Irregulars for gaming (playing in Dave Jackson's game)and also sat in this past Wed with the other Irregulars gaminging group for Jim's running of my Quartermain setting and the Guardian characters.
Kiralee will remain in control of the organizational end of the Irregulars for the foreseeable future - and I'm not ready to come back in on GMing duties as yet. I need to keep my stress levels down, and the day to day things are difficult enough (never mind looking at the terrors our illegitimate president is imposing upon humanity).
I'm continuing to persue Yoga classes, and am spending more time out walking around the city now that the weather has turned to Spring.
I am still keeping my online activities limited, to avoid the media blitz about the war, and to avoid getting into futile discussions and petty arguments. This means I'm on 4 mailing lists that are not originating from us, all of them local area related (including the continuing efforts to revive the Putnam Cafe).
My IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome) has quieted for the moment, but my weight is still fluxating randomly and I'm probably just on the quiet part of the cycle that it goes thru.
I had a second dental incident this past Tuesday, as one of my crowns became loose. The dentist had to remove it and reapply adhesive etc., and I need to go back next week to have the work checked up on. He ended up having to novicaine my gum, and when it wore off I found myself in some rather annoying pain (more than the last time I had had this sort of thing happen) so it was decided to have wine with dinner that night to numb the pain. This worked wonders, removing the pain rapidly and by morning there was no sign of irritation or problem and I was able to chew again etc. That day was a bit stressful, but we managed to get thru it, and Cindy was kind enough to get us a nice soft takeout for dinner.
I've actually got a little writing done this week, and am feeling good about myself, my projects and better about life in general. I am vaguely thinking about dealing with some website updates next month, so if folks have links to submit, material that they would like to make available to the net thru us, notes of obvious bugs or problems with the site etc please send me an email.
