Well, the school year is wrapping up. We finish with regular classes tomorrow, then on to intensives...
My afternoon one will be a challenge. I'm teaching Havana Nights -- a bit of cultural studies, mostly Latin Ballroom Dance. We shall see how the body holds up.
I'd rather nap, but the students requested dancing...
This blog is about FibroMyalgia, and the particularly strange ways it affects my life. Although it can be a royal pain (oh, no, puns already?), Fibro can also be pretty interesting. And yes, I feel strongly that a sense of humor is the best medicine, particularly in my case. So, come along for the ride, I'll post some of the more interesting neural miscommunications as they come up. If I don't post for a while, maybe I'm feeling normal -- whatever that is...

Rough day, but...
Yeah...
Really painful right arm seizures at school today -- the tightened up kind. Since one of our T.A.s was in the room, I was able to go to the staff room to run my arm under cold water to ease up the pain a little. One of my coworkers came in, and I explained what I was doing... and he immediately dropped what he was doing to check the freezer for an ice pack. Cold water works better than ice packs for these, but just the act was so kind. He checked in on me back in my room about 15 minutes later.
It's really good being in such a supportive environment.
