Ass kicked. Names taken.

amanda_loddenI slept!
As expected, the insomnia evaporated as soon as I finished the antibiotics. I've got another window open, in the middle of writing a letter to my doctor detailing the side effects of the antibiotic. I'm trying to keep it short yet complete, so that it fits on a single page with enough of a top margin to accommodate hole punches, so that it can be neatly added to my chart for reference the next time I need an antibiotic. Since that is not usually when my memory is at its best, I'd prefer to have my reactions properly documented so that I don't have to recall them when my brain is in a fog.
The weekend has been fantastic. Yesterday, I played. I went to the always-awesome clogging convention that![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
clogteachr puts on annually, and for once I heeded shaddoth's advice and DIDN'T overdo it, so this morning I did not ache terribly badly. As a bonus, I rode with shanegang and got to catch up with him during the drive. (Yes, we see each other all the time, but the conversations that old friends have when they're in a group are different from the conversations they have when it's just the two of them. Either you already know what I mean, or no amount of words will explain it.)
Today, between the sleep and the leftover adrenaline from yesterday, I:
* cleaned four bags of trash out of the basement
* sorted Things in the basement into another full box for charity
* sorted Things in the basement into a mostly-full box of things that belonged upstairs
* put a box of Things in the basement into their proper homes in the basement, because the aforementioned bags of trash and boxes of Things cleared enough space for me to get to the shelves in the storage room.
* collected a bunch of boxes that are too small/oddly shaped to use for Things for charity, and broke them down for recycling (planned for tomorrow morning, along with the bank and the pharmacy)
* collected a couple of small checks and prepared them for deposit tomorrow morning
* called in my prescriptions so they will be ready for pickup tomorrow morning
* folded three baskets of laundry
* ran another load of laundry
* got rid of the overripe bananas on the kitchen counter by baking a loaf of banana bread
* cleaned the junk mail off the dining room table
* emptied and put away three bags of random Things, including the one that was hiding the gift certificate I bought forshanegang's birthday but lost before I gave it to him
* ordered flowers for planting in the spring, but managed to control myself and stick with just a few plants that I really love, so it shouldn't be overwhelming when the flowers arrive
* filed some receipts that had been sitting on my desk
* scanned some more pictures in and got them off my desk
* filed a bunch of my mother's papers, emptying a box in the office
* finished packing up a care package forpusifoot and _counterculture and got it ready to send off to them
* took my mother Chinese for dinner and visited for a couple hours
