Pulse?

Hello!

Today was a very busy day indeed. The younger brother turned the big ten--but his attitude and noncompliance with birthday shopping earned him a time-out, then after more attitude, early dinner and bed (he was in a very sour mood).

I had a doctor's appointment today--it was for my college physical. I received four needle pokes: one meningitis shot, one Gardasil shot, a TB test, and a finger prick. Thank goodness I'm not afraid of sharp pointy-things or I would have been in an awful state of shock. Speaking of shock, my mother nearly crashed the car when I told her what my average blood pressure is. *Drum Roll* It's 80/50--the healthy range for someone my age is apparantly 120/80. That does explain why I'm always dizzy, why I can't stand without falling over or seeing spots, and why I have a hard time with stairs.

I also have poison ivy welts all over my left arm. I've got sterriods for that and numbing gel.

Well, I'm off to sleep. *Is exhausted*

Until next time,

Tuesday's Child
