It's been a Good News/Bad News sort of day.
The Good News: I didn't have to have blood drawn today when I went to the doctor's.
The Bad News: I'd fasted for 13 hours. *growl*
The Good News: The doctor doesn't think my blood sugar readings over the last two weeks look too bad.
The Bad News: I disagree. I want them down a LOT lower than what I'm seeing.
The Good News: There are other medications I can try besides Metformin.
The Bad News: The next drug of choice is a sulfa drug.
The Good News: The next drug of choice after that is
Avandia, and my doctor was able to give me two months worth of free samples.
The Bad News: Avandia is associated with heart problems, and I have
paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia. I'll have to phone my doctor tomorrow and ask him about that particular interaction.
The Good News: George has a cheque coming via FedEx for $1650 -- the kill fee on a project that fell through several months ago. We'd just about given up all hope of ever seeing that money.
The Bad News: There isn't really any, at least not associated with receiving that particular payment.
The Good News: I might be able to color all of the latest
HB graphic novel. They were talking about taking part of it away from me because the artist has blown the deadline like woah and they need it colored yesterday.
The Bad News: I have to color 10 pages a day to meet their required deadline. This kicks
MM completely to the curb until after next Friday.
The Further Bad News: Sleep? What the heck's that? Recreation? Forget it.
