* I see the Doctor again tomorrow, so they can look at my ear. I am very dizzy and weak just now, and my brain is not working as it should. As a result, I'm not particularly articulate or coherent. If I mess anything up, I apologize in advance.

* Re: Game of Thrones:
I'm of the opinion that White walkers and dragons are counter balances. I think that it's not a coincidence that the eggs finally hatch at the same time white walkers start moving in the far North. I think the dragons, like dragon glass, and the magic woven into Valyrian steel are for fighting the ice menace, and I'm guessing that's where the dragons are going. I think every five thousand years the magic rises, you get massive population movements, world wide conflict, and horrors like white walkers and dragons.

I'm considering the murder of Shireen to be a violation of Stannis' character arc, and I'm having trouble not being furious about that.

Health Update

So I'm now meant to make an appointment with a different specialist to look at my sinuses in case of endemic infection. (Likely). The Doctor also wants me to go to Children's Hospital in Seattle for tests to see if I have a rare atypical form of CF instead of Cf carrier, which I haven't money for, as a day trip to Seattle tends to run to a couple of hundred. I'm also meant to be trying to talk to the bank about the fees (likely futile) related to the AVG theft, making an appointment for a long term cardio study, etc. etc., but I've been coughing since 9:15 AM, had next to no sleep, am desperately wanting a bath after the heat and pollen outside, and the pressure is building up behind my ear drums again. I simply can't cope with scheduling and phone calls and arguing with people.

In other news, there is meant to be a tea party this weekend if I am well enough, and Joy is visiting at month's end. I haven't heard from him in a couple of years, but instinct said it was about time. I was thinking of emailing a check in to be honest.
