Got to see Saw II today - which I highly recommend. Wasn't quite sure about seeing it, since I wanted to, but sometimes sequels aren't as good. Plus if it was as scary, I wasn't sure if I could take it. All I'm going to say is that if you've seen the first, you should see the second and if you haven't seen either, you should see both. And that I want to have Leigh Whannell's babies. (Or possibly give him one of mine - not quite sure.)

Also saw Charlie and the Chocolate Factory - which I really enjoyed. I definitely love Johnny Depp. And Danny Elfman.


Here's my updated word count for so far this week:

11,055 / 13,200 (83.8%)

And overall:

11,055 / 50,000 (22.1%)

Now, if I could just get it so that I'm not cycling between getting blocked up and hardly being able to write one day and then not only doing the daily allotment the next day, but also catching up (which has happened over the past four days), I'll be a happy camper.


And does anyone know anything about herbs? I've been drinking herbal tea lately - mostly of the Celestial Seasonings variety, but I've also had a couple of bags of rosehip tea - and I've got this weird breakout of a hive-like rash on the inside of my left upper arm. It doesn't itch a whole lot, but it's a bit splotchy. And since I've had Celestial Seasonings tea before with no problems, I'm thinking it's the rosehip tea. Does anyone know if this is a possibility?

And does anyone get the TV Guide magazine that wants to get rid of their copy from last week - the one with the articles on "Prison Break" and David Boreanaz? I found out about it the day before it got switched to the new one.

Hi A! The tea could be a possibility...I've been known to have reactions to a few things (okay, okay, not including the stomach issues...). Another possibility: have you changed soaps/detergents/lotions, etc. recently? Or have you taken any medications or had any shots recently?

I've been going over all that too. The only thing that's been different lately's been the tea. I have one more bag of one flavor left, so I'm going to finish that tomorrow and then go back to my old standard tea, which I *know* I have no problems with and give my body a rest and a chance to regroup and then I'll try to carefully reintroduce the other teas and see what happens.


P.S. We need to get together!
