Woke up with a sore throat - I was a little panicked that my infection had come back post-antibiotics. Not a big deal, I only had to visit a zillion doctors today.

Pretty much a 50,000 mile warranty checkup -

I got the following done:

Visited Allergist
- got 'scrip for a new inhaler, one that should stop the need for the old one. a puff before bed.
- Going back on shots once a week. Saturdays, I suspect, due to me working and all.
- trying a new med for my "stigmata". rash on wrists and ankles.
- Doctor was pretty amusing. "Any animals at home, aside from your wife?"
- I've lost about 16 lbs since the start of September.
- I'm allergic to red meat! good thing I don't eat the stuff anymore. So much for me being a zombie, werewolf, ghoul or other carni-beasite, though.
- Once on my shots, I should be doing a lot better, especially with Newt and Pye in the house.

Got a Flu Shot
- Didn't feel a thing. The Nurse at the Allergist is *good*. Note to self - get my next one there, too.

Picked up the mail, and saw TM and Matt hanging out on the boardwalk. They seem to be getting along pretty well, thus far! I'm happy that

Went to Cheeburger Cheeburger, but my throat was too sore to gulp down a veggie burger... (Lunch tomorrow!), but the Milkshake and diet pepsi soothed nicely.

Went to Michaels, to look for fun game-making supplies and Halloween crafts. BHK found a lot of fun items, but my fave was the LED candles... we can finally have some luminaries / candle effects without flame to hurt kitties, or smoke to choke Scotto. I didn't see anything that I had to have right away.. maybe further into development.

Went to Dentist for a few more fillings. No numbness issues this time, but he was pretty rough. The right side of my jaw is fairly sore, due to him dinging a nerve with the anesthetic needle. I also chewed my tongue a bit, due to my not feeling it. On the upside, the fillings feel great and I'm about done. BHK got her mouth guard, thanks to a cancellation on the bridge at the last minute... saves her from having to come back later this week!

ATW man is still in Oktoberfest mode.

Other things that Happened recently - Went to Target - got a few "game tins" for $1 each. I now own tiny versions of Chess, Snakes and Ladders, and another game that I can't remember the name of, but looks like Sorry.

BHK makes awesome Lasagna, which is even better the next day.

The autumn colors are really starting to pop!

What exactly are the symptoms of a red meat allergy?

not sure, but if I get poked with a needle with some essence on it, I get a bump on my arm that looks like a mosquito bite.

Dang you, did you give me a sore throat from reading your entry?? ;) i've had one for the last 15 min, after reading.

How big were the tins at target?? are they blank? I need a decent tin to make my dad a survival kit today

Ha, I am question princess this morning.

do you think you are just eating better on bhk's cooking, than when you were single? is that how you lost the weight?

What is the inhaler & non-flu shot for? allergies?

the docs ask me specifically if i have *cats* at home, when i come in with problems. it makes me sad. :(

I think that BHK's cooking is better eats for sure, plus I'm certainly more "on-the-go" these days, too. I'm trying to be more active in general!

inhaler is for allergies, as are the shots.

aww.... my doc said that "I understand, kitties are family.. I wish I had a shot that'd let me get along better with my mother in law, too"

oops! sorry about the sore throat! pineapple juice makes mine feel better!

the tins were maybe about the size of two coffee cups on their side.

survival kit?
