I have been having headaches and migranes for quite some time now.  There is really no rhyme or reason when they hit, they seem random.  I finally saw a doctor about them.  She sent me off for an MRI and bloodwork.  In the process of taking my blood, the nurse gave me a major crack bruise.  LOVELY!  During the MRI I also was gifted with yet another crack bruise when they added the contrast.  I have been doing my best to keep that arm covered when I leave the house.  :)  My results from the bloodwork and the MRI were both normal.  I have been given a Rx for a medicine to take at the onset of a migrane.  I haven't taken one yet and am a little anxious about taking one.  I was informed that about 30 minutes after taking the pill I will experience some interesting side effects.  My heart will start to race and I will get flushed.  This is the medicine getting into my bloodstream and starting to take effect.  She told me that she just wanted to let me know so that I won't freak out when I start to feel the side effects.  These pills aren't cheap either!  Six of them were $120.00!!!  I sure hope they work.
Still no word about jobs.  I found out some crappy news about one of the jobs on campus.  I was their first choice for the job.  BUT, a higher up involved in the hiring process didn't like the way the other administrators were interviewing.  He went over their heads and hired a friend of a friends wife who needed a job.  Now let me add that this woman knows absolutely nothing about computers and the university system.  They will have to train her from the ground up. ARGH!!!  I do know that they will be opening yet another position, basically to take up the slack from this lady.  I will have to reapply and reinterview.  That should be a barrel of monkeys.
I have registered for another test so that I can be eligible for another state job.  I would much rather prefer a kush state job over one on campus, but I am not going to be picky at this point.
In all my down time, I am still working on blankets.  Most recently I started working on ablanket for the MIL.  SH mentioned last week that his mother would LOVE a blanket for Christmas.  We went to get the yarn and I started working immediately.  I had 14 days to get it done since we will be doing family christmas Saturday.  I had 80 squares to create, attach them into strips 8 squares long, attach the strips together, then finish the entire blanket in 5 rows of stitches.  I finished the last 14 squares yesterday since I ran out of 2 colors of yarn.  While waiting for more yarn, I managed to get most of the strips done.  Today I have 6 major connections to sew and will hopefully get started on the finishing.  I have never done a blanket of this caliber in this amount of time.  WHEW.  I will be glad when it is finished.  Will get pics soon.
