Really, Weekend?

So my weekend started with a trip to the ER Friday afternoon. I'm 99% sure it was high blood pressure (I was shaky, dizzy, nauseous), but since they waited an hour and a half to take it, it was fine by the time they did. Super helpful. They took six vials of blood, a cat scan, and four hours of my time, then $150 of my money and told me nothing. Not that I'm, um, bitter. I'm going to get a cuff to use at home to check myself. I've been getting the nausea/dizziness thing a lot recently, and I'm not loving that, so here's to hoping keeping track on my own at least gives me something concrete to go to my real doctor with.

Then Sunday morning, my son decided it would be a nice way to start things off by poking me in the eyeball and scratching my cornea. So I spent the first half of Sunday with a Halloween eye patch on. Thank you, Pike. I love you, but it would be great if you could NOT maim mommy.

Now today I'm still tired, I'm feeling the nausea again, and I'm just plugging along to make it until I can go home. Upside? I was down a pound when I weighed in the other day. At least something's looking up!

And the day ends in fail

Yesterday was good once I got home from getting assigned jury duty and my headache wore off (tomorrow I do the ACTUAL jury duty, apparently). But sadly the day ended with fail. My friend Shawn (thank god he was paying attention!) emailed me to say one of my WoW chars was logged in and not replying. Now as most of you remember, my account lapsed as of September 19, so this was definitely news to me. First I called Wes to see if he was being awesome and renewing my account for me. No such luck. So I logged in to Blizzard's site and changed my password.

Then I logged into the server. On my main server, Drak'Tharon, almost all my chars were stripped (or close to it), any non-soulbound bags were gone, any items that were sellable were gone... it was utter fail. And they'd kindly left one of my characters logged out in mid-jump so I logged in to die. Really thoughtful. I have a ticket in with Blizzard, so hopefully they'll restore my account to what it was BEFORE someone PAID to hack my account. Srsly. Who the hell would PAY just to hack someone's account?!

And it really ticks me off since I was just thinking about going back to WoW... and now I have nothing to go bloody back TO.

Yahoogroups

Just a quick rant. Yahoogroups not having fixed their message search STILL when they promised to fix it in by mid May is really wearing on my nerves. It's keeping me from being a good mod, it's causing stress, and it's making me want to throttle tech people who didn't plan better for their user base. :: sigh :: Guess now it's a matter of deciding whether I am dissatisfied enough to consider moving any groups to another service. Mostly I just needed to rant since I'm starting to think they just aren't fixing it. Instead they are taking their services down every couple days for "database maintenance." :\

No. Just no.

An open letter to the world:

I'm not a morning person. Please stop thinking or pretending that I am. Pretty please? I'm never perky or happy or funny in the morning. I'm blah. I want to be blah. Give me a half hour or so to relax and be blah and then you may just have a happy, prospectively useful person on your hands. Keep bugging me for no reason and that will NEVER happen. So just... relax. And let me relax. We'll all be much happier for it.

Thank you!
Me
