panic attack

I’ve had an endoscopy. It’s not that bad. I don’t remember much and I had a sort throat after. It was pretty non-traumatic. Okay, that’s actually a lie. Because it was paired with a colonoscopy, it was terrible. Mostly the bad was all in the prep. The procedures were nothing. Anyhow, even though I know it’s not that bad, my son is having one tomorrow and I’m freaking out a bit. He doesn’t know yet. No reason to worry him. I’ll tell him later. I just hope that this gives us answers. The nice thing is that I was able to get it scheduled so fast. There was some dumb luck involved with that, and I’m grateful for that. Especially since the boy only seems to be increasing his barfing.

Stephanie Burgis gave this really cool link to some assorted options for help with plotting. I’m really hoping that I can get some ideas for plotting here. I want to figure out where my ability to plot went and find it and drag it back. Okay, lure it back. I read Jim Butcher’s LJ articles, which made me think a bit. Nothing I didn’t know, but reminded me of what I might be forgetting.

I denuded the Christmas tree. Usually I do it with the kids, but I needed to do something today and I couldn’t focus on anything creative. Next I should shower and walk the dogs. Walk the dogs then shower? Maybe I’ll read something. Maybe I should brush the dogs.
