Suck and Major Suck

[thewayne]

Well, we're not doing the Colorado Ren Fest this weekend. I went to the doctor yesterday, I've been having some tremendous neck pain and he thinks my neck muscles are inflamed, so I'm going to be doing Flexoril(?) and steroids. I'm going to have a drugged-up weekend in hopes that I'll be recovered before I hit the road for Phoenix and Con Games. We may go back to 'Cruces since Russet is off, theoretically my parents are going to be there.

The major suckage is my laptop is dead. Won't boot, no screen display/POST. Fortunately the warranty people finally called, so we shall see what we shall see. Also fortunately, my older laptop (i.e. the MP3 player) will be easy to bring up to my needs, I just have to install Office, Photoshop, and copy my games down. Probably four hours of work or so.

There is one point of non-suckage: my 100gig drive for my laptop arrived. But since the computer is dead, it ain't gonna do me much good.

*sigh*

Lots of games to update, it's going to be busy.

I was hoping to try to get to the Ren Fest in Larkspur the last weekend it is here.

I have gone to the Ren Faire in Santa Nella (thereabouts) California nearly every year for the past six and want to check out the one in my new home state.

I hope your neck feels better now. Steroids are a bitch to have to take. I was on an intense 7 day round of them the day after Christmas last because of a serious vertigo attack. NASTY STUFF! I hated it.

Steroids for vertigo?! Huh, never heard of that. My wife found them effective for battling a fever last winter when she had the flu.

Neck is much improved, but I've got a 500 mile drive tomorrow with a game convention starting the next day. Should be interesting!

They were to deal with the inflammation in my inner ear that triggered the horrendous vertigo spell...
