Oh yeah, perhaps the fact that I got maybe 4 hours of sleep last night thanks to hours of borderline panic attacks starting around 12:30, added to today's peak flow measurements between 290 and 320 (a "normal" woman my age and height should be in the 480 range, I'm usually in the 430 area when it's not allergy season), just might explain why I feel so godawful run down today. If I could, I'd probably duck out mid-afternoon to go home, pick up my inhaler at CVS and take a nap. Unfortunately, I'm the only half of my department here and so I'm kinda stuck.

Could be worse. Could be snowing.

Please please please go home and get your inhaler. Please. If you're normally at around 430, then your PFMs are less than 80% of normal. That's really not good.

I have an inhaler here, it's just running low; no worries on not having medication with me. I have a refill waiting for me later.

Okay, then : )

[geekchick]

I absolutely never leave the house in the spring or the fall without my inhaler with me, as that's just asking for all kinds of trouble involving trips to urgent care and nebulizers and a whole honkin' lot of no fun.

Oh yeah, the other thing is that my measurements are always somewhat lower when it's allergy season (which is in full swing here), so it's really not quite as grim as it sounds. Promise.

I swear it looked like it was going to do that here for a few minutes this morning.

My little dose of perspective last week: I was grumbling about having to wear a long-sleeved tshirt and a light sweater out of the house after a few days of blissful mid-70s, when a friend pointed out that they had 8 inches of snow. On the other hand, I don't live in Colorado for a reason. Well, many reasons actually, but I think you know what I mean. =)

I could possibly live in Colorado. Just not certain more crowded parts of it. I can deal with snow. I don't like dealing with other people (on the roads, mainly) who can't.

Of course, where we're suddenly thinking about relocating doesn't get all that much of the white stuff.

Nice user pic, BTW. ;-)

If I guess correctly where that is, I think they tend to get more of the ice storms than the snow. At least last year, anyway.

If I guess correctly where that is

About 4 1/2 hours south of where you are. :-)

I've noticed that area gets more ice. More hurricanes, too, but fewer tornados. ;-)

Your new userpic... essence of cuteness. Mmm.

Thanks for letting me drop by tonight, even briefly, given what a sleepy and tired state you were in.

(hug) much appreciated, thanks.
