I have fleas

For the past week or so, my cats have refused to use the floor of my apartment.  This is quite aggravating, as they keep leaping up on the kitchen counters, refuse to eat when their bowls are placed on the floor, etc.  I thought perhaps another cat had gotten in and somehow marked the place.  Now I believe it's because we have fleas.  I keep getting bites around my ankles and sitting here on my bed, I've killed at least two fleas.  Of course, my cats are hanging out on the bed with the fleas and me, so I'm not sure if that's the real reason they're so anti-floor.  Regardless, I must now purchase a flea bomb and wash all my linens.  And get my vacuum cleaner fixed.  It's the glamorous life for me.

I have joined the masses

Doctor's recommend I start my own blog (actually it was my dental hygienist, if you're picky).  She decided I was funny, and anyone who laughs at my jokes gets points in my book.  I have no idea what to write, so I'll start with what I was telling her...ahem, ahem.

Whenever I go the dentist, I feel like some horrible, lapsed Catholic.  Forgive me doctor, for I have sinned.  It has been 13 days since I last flossed.  I have failed to brush twice a day.  Cleanse me and absolve me of my guilt!  I only wish Hail Marys could make up for lack of flossing.  On the bright side, I didn't end up with any cavities.  Maybe there was some kind of divine intervention after all.

I am switching anti-depressants yet again after having been on pristiq for about a month.  Horrid, horrid drug.  Unfortunately, my psychiatrist is going on a vacation, so I'm switching back to Prozac for the time being since it's been proven to be good, but not great.  Not sure what I'll try next.  Suggestions?  I was on Effexor, so that's out.  I really wish doctors knew what the hell they were doing when it came to brain drugs, but even they admit that even if the drugs work, they have no idea why.  Well, increased serotonin makes people happier--Fuck if we know why! Ha ha!  Greeeeaaat.  So glad I'm entrusting my well-being to you guys.  Maybe I'll get some crystals while I'm at it.  Align my chakras.  Whatever.

Hey, this spell check thing is neat.  It needs to be updated though.  Effexor's been around for years and they don't have it in the dictionary?  No chakras either?  How very unbalanced of them.  Well, I'm off to see if I can't personalize this doodad a little.  After all, if I must be like everyone else, I might as well do it as myself.
