Wheee, holes! And books.

I went into the shot clinic again today and let them put holes on me. I haven't been in since November. I knew that. I was sick in early December, then the office was slammed, then I was on vacation. I could have gone in last week, but it had already been 30 days; an extra week doesn't make it any worse once you hit that, and last week was insane due to catchup post-holidays.

I tolerated the shots well, which means that when I go in next week (Monday is my plan), I should be able to step up in all of the bottles and begin to resume the regimen. Next week I'll only get the shots once as well, but I might be able to do twice the week after. I'd like to get back to maintenance levels, between bad reactions to shots in early/mid-November and having two bottles expire (resulting in new bottles; you step back when you go to a new bottle) means that I'm well below where I actually should be maintaining.

I also finished reading The High King's Tomb. I liked it, but I did not love it. A pity; I'd hoped to. It's good. I want the next book. It's just not spectacular, and I'll survive the wait for the next book.

Why for are you getting holes poked in you?

Allergy shots. *wry* Skipping over 30 days not so good. But! I didn't have a bad reaction this time, which means I'll step up next week, which means I'm back on track.

It particularly bothers me to fall off on this because honestly, they have helped so much.

Ah. Yup, allergy shots suck when you skip a whole month.

At least I didn't drop out of any of the bottles and need a more dilute one. If I'd reacted badly to one of them this time (the one that instead had almost no reaction at all, yay!), they would have had to dilute. Which, well, costs money and takes time and all. So I'm glad that one was dodged and I must get in next week and step up, then it won't be as much of a risk.
