appointment with the neurologist today....he wants me to consider surgery....SURGERY?!?!? you want to carve into my brain and cut out the scar tissue in my left temporal lobe? eeek! i asked him if the relatively low number of seizures i had justified it - he says it would eliminate the absence seizures as well, not just the convulsive ones....hmmm, maybe it would be worth it. *shrug* we'll see what the video EEG says in november, and then go from there....

okay, now i just gotta figure out how to change the color of the (comment) line above my posts so that it doesn't blend in with the backgrounds...
gonna try to put in BlogBack - that way ya'll can post replies to my msgs, if you're so inclined....
this site CRACKED ME UP! airtoons.com has parodies of airline in-flight safety cards, with accompanying illustrations...
cute little website - word-detective.com - got lots of origins of weird words and phrases...one that particularly amused me was the article on mondegreens - phrases and/or lyrics that are misheard - one that absolutely drives me UP THE WALL is when people say/write "for all intensive purposes" - it's "for all intents and purposes"!!! the article mentions a classic hymn - "Gladly the Cross-Eyed Bear" *rofl* sounds like a GREAT cartoon, if i do say so myself...

of course, the ultimate source of mondegreens is the book "'scuse me while i kiss this guy" and it's sequels - there's even a website now...

another cool link i've found this evening was to the straight dope...sheesh, i love trivial information!!
ugh...had a seizure tuesday afternoon, while i was asleep....called in to work, but ended up coming in a few hours later - i don't have the PTO to take the day off, so i might as well be here, even if we're way ahead of schedule. my head still hurts like a motherfucker, i guess it was a pretty intense seizure...
