Little by little

Little by little,  I'm getting better at dealing with the random aches and pains I get in my everyday life. I have been getting more pains than usual this past week but I think they're side effects from the Lupron. I looked them up and it seems spot-on. The reason I was looking up Lupron side effects is because I've had a bit of spotting today, plus some slight cramps...I'm on day 20 of cycle, and I shouldn't be getting any periody-related ANYTHING because of the Lupron. I don't know how common that is though so tomorrow I'll call the nurse who gave me the shot. She was sooo nice. She talked to me for a long time and went over a little Lupron booklet with me and the side effects, etc--which obviously I don't remember as I was looking them up on the internet today, but needless to say that's not her fault. ;)

I'm very excited for this upcoming weekend, as I'm going to Comiccon on Saturday, which is a big sci-fi convention. Well, sci-fi is its main point, but it also covers video games, anime, and some television and movies. I went once two years ago and I had a fantastic time. When I heard back in May that the cast of one of my favourite TV shows of all time (Battlestar Galactica) was going to be there this year, I knew no matter what I absolutely HAD to be there. September felt like such a long ways off, but here it is, and I'm not in the hospital, and I have my ticket! :) I even have a ticket for a photo op with actor James Callis, who played my favourite character in the show. To say I'm excited about this is the understatement of the century!!! This helps make up for all the cool stuff I missed over the summer while I was stuck in the hospital or at home being neutropenic. Also, I'm dressing up. I finished putting together my costume today. Even though it's kinda 'ghetto' I'm sooo pleased with it! I'm going as Yuffie from Final Fantasy VII. I'm so excited I barely know what to do with myself! It needs to be Saturday NOW. :)

Masks & distancing are INCREDIBLY helpful--life-saving, even. That's not opinion--that's just fact. I don't understand how t...
