Justified

I have a new television show I am crazy about. The name is Justified and it is on FX on Tuesdays nights. I love the acting, the actors, and the story. The script is based on a short story by Elmore Leonard. That makes it a reason to watch right off. The setting is Kentucky. So far there have been six episodes. I will be so sad when the season ends. You need to check it out. Remember I have impeccable taste and am always right about television.

Taking Drugs

I have been out of commission for awhile. I am taking a new medicine to combat my Sjogren's. The medicine is Plaquenil.It is mainly used to treat malaria although it is found to help rheumatoid arthritis and lupus. There are abundant side effects. Some that go away and some that require stopping the medication. Lots are the usual you hear on the commercials. But some sound pretty exciting and unique. Like change in the color of your skin, hair loss, mental or mood changes , and peeling skin. The most intriguing is bizarre behavior. I don't know how you diagnose that one. What seems bizarre to me may not be to you. I have just told the husband to let me know if I am acting bizarre. But if I am acting bizarre and he tells me will I do anything about it? Do you see what I am saying? But luckily I have only been dizzy and nauseated. I drove one day and got so dizzy I had visions of me being on the 6:00 news in the middle of Harris Teeter sitting in my van. I stopped driving until the dizziness was under control.The one thing I am so pissed about is the drug causes weight loss. Have I even lost a pound? No! But that maybe because I have been eating strawberry shortcake to treat my nausea.

Working on the New Vow.

Today is 90 degrees. All my errands and dog park activities have to be early. I am racing around like a mad women to get out of the house. As I head to the garage I remember my vow I took in Wal-Mart to never end up on the Wal-Mart people postings. The last thing I want to do is trudge upstairs and slap on make-up. My huge brain goes into action. I grab a ball cap covering up my wild hair and icky face. I am so smart.

Another Heads Up

I read this about a week ago and kept forgetting to send out the heads up. The feds are on Facebook and MySpace,LinkedIn and Twitter, too. They are assuming fake identities and friending people. They have arrested some people just by intensive facebook searching. Last year some teachers here in Charlotte lost their jobs for having inappropriate postings and pictures on Facebook. Several complained about their jobs and the children. So my advice to everyone on the internet " The world and the FBI are watching. Think about what you say about your job, life , and fellow man". Come to think of it my blog is pretty open. The FBI could be watching my blog. That might get me blog of note for being the first FBI monitored blog. I still only have 16 followers so I need that extra push. I guess I better remove the sentence about killing the old man.
