I haven't a clue how but up until recently I've been unable to even move my left hand without excruciating pain. I feel horrible for anyone trying to read my comic, but I'd rather not damage myself more and Oren has been wonderfully understanding about the whole thing. I just wish I knew what I did in the first place. It has something to do with a nerve in my back and the whole thing is affecting my drawing hand. Oh well, at least I can type again. Still incredibly painful to lift my arm more than an inch up but it will heal.<br /><br />I have a second job now. I work in a bookstore which is perfect for me. Although I was hired to sort books and put them on the shelves I'm currently working the cash register which is fine for me. It's helped me get over my slight money phobia although I can feel my obsessive compulsive tendencies creeping up on me - I worry about the cleanliness. I just try to think about other things though and I'm usually okay.<br /><br />The epilepsy has been all right. Minor seizures which is great. I think the medication I'm not might be the one for me. urn:lj:livejournal.com:atom1:elliedachshi:656 2005-11-21T16:54:25Z 2005-11-21T16:54:25Z &lt;/p&gt;<span class='ljuser ljuser-name_' lj:user='' style='white-space: nowrap;'><a href='http://www.livejournal.com/userinfo.bml?user='><img src='http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif' alt='[info]' width='17' height='17' style='vertical-align: bottom; border: 0; padding-right: 1px;' /></a><a href='http://www.livejournal.com/userinfo.bml?user='><b></b></a></span> <p><span class='ljuser ljuser-name_annvole' lj:user='annvole' style='white-space: nowrap;'><a href='http://annvole.livejournal.com/profile'><img src='http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif' alt='[info]' width='17' height='17' style='vertical-align: bottom; border: 0; padding-right: 1px;' /></a><a href='http://annvole.livejournal.com/'><b>annvole</b></a></span> :</p> <p>7 things that scare you...</p> <ol> <li>Ignorance</li> <li>Holy wars</li> <li>Forests</li> <li>Totalitarianism</li> <li>Extremists (on either side)</li> <li>Auras/Seizures</li> <li>Racism...most "isms"</li></ol> <p><br>7 things you like the most...</p> <ol> <li>Dogs, mine specifically</li> <li>Rodents</li> <li>Art</li> <li>Music</li> <li>Traveling</li> <li>Learning (yes, I sound like a dork)</li> <li>Writing</li></ol> <p>7 important things in your room...</p> <ol> <li>My rats</li> <li>My medications</li> <li>My books</li> <li>My art supplies</li> <li>My computer</li> <li>My journals</li> <li>My clothing and shoes</li></ol> <p>7 random facts about you...</p> <ol> <li>I have several neurological diseases.</li> <li>I am a published writer.</li> <li>I am allergic to watermelon.</li> <li>I once slit my wrists on accident.
