Gettin' Dizzy
Saturday was a busy day. I picked Kirsty up at her house at about 9:45 a.m. We drove out to Feathers because I had to get that food for Gunther. $36 for one bag of food!! Ergh. I bought a couple snacks that I know they all like and I also needed a perch for Button's cage and a foraging wheel for Gunther. It came to $90. That hurt since I only had $110 more on me for the entire day of errands.
As always, I had a blast at Feathers. I asked the owner, Eric, if Kirsty and I could play with one of the two baby lovebirds they had in the bird room. He said, "You don't have to ask. You can play with both birds. Just go back there and take them out." I love that I've been going there so long that they just don't care anymore. So Kirsty and I went back there and I took the two babies out. They were so sweet. They're from the same woman who raised Button. She devotes her whole life to them so they come out being just the sweetest little things. One was a beautiful pied that I wanted to take home so badly.
We left there and went over to Chrisanne's all the way out in Auburn. Kirsty got to try on the bridesmaid dress (which she really seemed to like, whew) and I ordered my veil. It was the first veil I had tried on with a dress simliar to the one I bought. I had fallen in love with it but it was too expensive. My mom offered to pay for it though since it complimented the dress so well. It's all sparkly on the edges. I just love it. I can't wait until it comes in.
Then it was over to Soup to Nuts at the Sturbridge Millyard. We drove past Dawn and Craig's office and I missed them. I love going to that restaurant. The food is just so totally yummy. I wish I lived closer to it. It's an hour drive out there.
We went to Petsmart to get lovie food and then we hit AC Moore to try and figure out what the heck we're going to do for wedding centerpieces. She came back to our house after and hung out with me and John and the birds for a while. Then we drove her home and John got a tour of her condo to which he said the he'd trade with her. Meaning she'd come live with me and the pets and he'd have the quiet one all to himself. I don't think so buddy. ;) So Kirsty and I had a blast. And we got soooo much done!
Saturday night was bad. It was my first day taking a full pill of Paxil and it hit me like a ton of bricks. I woke up at midnight feeling wicked nauseous. When I looked at anything with light in it, like the clocks or the little light beside the bed, I saw trails. I held my hand up in front of my face and saw that making trails too. Ugh, it was awful. I tried to read some Calvin and Hobbes until about 12:30 then I gave up and stayed on the couch until five a.m. watching Scream2 and such things. I went to bed until 8:30 and then got up and got ready for the meeting.
Yep, I'm back. And I didn't even let a night of bad drug reactions stop me. :) I was glad I didn't miss it. The talk was very good - how to serve God - and the speaker was funny. He used to be Catholic and he had all these great experiences. The watchtower was nice too. I couldn't follow along since I'm behind on my magazines. The brother who handles the literature counter came up to me during the closing song and said he had some magazines for me. Nice of him since he hadn't seen me in four months. But he went up during the song and got them for me so that I wouldn't have to stick around. I was dreading having to do that. I should just put a big red "D" on my chest...
So the meeting was good and then I came home from that and read Star Wars for like two hours. I got some new books from Sarah so I started in on that series. Yay, new Star Wars books! :)
I took Gunther out for like three hours with me. Tonks was out for a bit too. She's a biter. Pixel tried taking some bread away from Gunther and he jumped on her head cuz he was ticked. It was so funny, but I had to grab him before she freaked out.
Last night was better. No bad reactions. I guess my body is getting used to the drug. Good stuff. I just want to finally feel it working in a good way.
No working out tonight. Kirsty's brother is coming for a visit. But Wednesday I will. And tomorrow night is the long meeting. Or is it book study? Shoot, I'll have to go check.
