Ugh.

Suddenly started to feel nauseous on the way to work, had to slow down (I walk to/from work very quickly), and now I'm sitting here wishing I'd stayed home. I just took a couple of Pepto Bismol caplets and hope they start working soon. So glad today's Wednesday and not Thursday; I don't have to leave work to go to therapy today. If I leave work at all, it'll be to go home, but I hope I don't have to do that. No one is here yet, though, so at least it's quiet. And I don't have any meetings today, or for the rest of the week. That's the one good thing about the meetings getting shifted around--everything now takes place on Monday and Tuesday each week, so I get those things out of the way.

Other news: I drew! I started it in the car on Friday. I used a different style for the girl's face--I still started with the eyes, but I drew them differently and haven't bothered to shade them in like I normally do. I like it. Drew her naked and just added clothes yesterday while I was waiting for Dr. Boyer to see me. I'm trying to add finishing touches right now, like her right hand (^^;) and her feet. No idea who she is. I also have a vague idea of a male character. Drawing him will be a little more difficult, hehe. Anyway, I have Alyce to thank for drawing in the first place. Since I told her I draw and showed her my deviantART page, she's been interested in my art. She's been on medical leave for a little while now, but last week (I think Thursday, or Friday), she called in to talk to the boss. She called my number and asked how I was doing, and how the art was going. I told her I'm trying, and she said (paraphrasing of course), "Don't try. There is no try, just do. Try is an extra step." I've been told that before, but coming from her, it really meant something. So, when she gets back, I'll at least have one pic to show her. ^_^

Dr. Boyer gave me another prescription for the Cymbalta, enough to last me about three months. I go back to see him on August 18th, although I might have to change that appointment. I haven't set up my vacation time yet, but I have enough that I can take two weeks off, and I'm strongly considering it. Mom has the last two weeks of August off, and the idea was for me to take those weeks off too. Maybe I'll see him the week before. I think I'll have enough pills to last me until the beginning of September, so I could see him then, too. He says he thinks I'm reacting to the medication well, and he doesn't see a need to up my dosage even though I'm only at half-dose.

EDIT: Okay, now I'm feeling dizzy. Yay medication. XD;;

Rrrgh, YouTube, stop randomly removing videos from my favorites. I do not appreciate having to hunt down the video of the short-limbed Scottish Fold kitten.

Speaking of, god, I want one of those. The folded ears are bad enough. They also tend to have huge, beautiful eyes, and they're very playful. They're supposed to be very good pets.

Anyway, bed for me. I had trouble sleeping last night and spent the entire day in a daze (although I did manage those finishing touches on the drawing, and inability to form coherent thoughts isn't much of a big deal when there's hardly anyone in the office). I think it's because I didn't eat dinner last night. I probably should have, and the lack of sleep/exhaustion might have been the reason for the nausea and dizziness this morning. I never felt sick exactly, just not right.
