It's not a cry you can hear at night, it's not somebody who's seen the light...

My mouth is finally getting back to normal, which means it isn't drying out at every opportunity so I have to stay up all night with a water bottle in my face, dripping it on my tongue. And that isn't an exaggeration, I actually did that. Dry mouth is like...one of the worst things I have ever experienced, physically. It was worse than asthma because it made my tongue all huge and I couldn't talk right and that freaked me out so I had anxiety attacks and couldn't breathe anyway. And my mouth hurt because it dried out if I didn't drink water constantly. And I was always aware of it. It's still the tiniest bit dry, but nothing like it has been, and my tongue feels like it fits in my face now.

YOU ALL NEEDED TO KNOW THESE MINUTE DETAILS ABOUT ANXIETY MEDICATION SIDE EFFECTS. Okay, you probably didn't, but now you do anyway ;) And really, if that is the worst side effect they give me, I can deal. But I am saying that now because it seems to be over! It seems like such a minor thing, but oh dear GOD it was a week and a half of quite an ordeal.

Now there is chicken ceasar salad (oh god, I just ate so much of it which is so good) and Silent Hill, which is so atmospheric and the music is pretty and there are monsters and I have random threads to start in FS and the kitten is sleeping beside me. I feel happy and warm and loved and lucky. And calm. I feel calm.

Thank everything for that.

Now I just have to start eating more again. I still have no appetite, which bothers me. My clothes are all way too big. Like...it is impressive how much weight I lost in two weeks (yes, I am not pleased about this). So tomorrow I am going to eat three meals. I know, right? I CAN DO THIS!

I can't sleep because I am getting sick again. AT THE END OF MY HOLIDAYS THIS IS NOT OKAY! I have class next week, body. You couldn't have done this on any of the three weeks I DIDN'T!?!??! Clearly Leah and I should not live together. We infect each other.

*giggles*

It sounds dirty :D

Also? Ariadne's favourite toy? A piece of chocolate wrapper crumpled up into a ball. I threw it away and she fished it out of the trash and played with that bad boy like a mofo for hours. All upside down under my bed and over the shoes and under the desk and tralalala daisies. Then I threw it away the next morning? It reappeared. This performance has now repeated itself for four days in a row, so I think I'll let her keep it...

Ariadne 1, Lara 0. But she's cute, so who's keeping score!? She just chased it into her water dish, paused to drink, and then chased it out again. Oh dear.

Though she did drag the toy Tim and Sam brought over UP and DOWN the hallway earlier tonight hahahaha it was awesome!

....I like cats. SHE JUS JUMPED UP HERE AUUUFHH AI CAN"T SE! ...wow (apparently my blind typing skills aren't TOO terrible!) ANYWAY, bedtime. I hope.
