Life and Linketies
May. 10th, 2012 09:21 pm*sigh* The past two days have sucked mightily. Migraine started Monday, and Tues/Wed were nasty despite meds. Today's a lot better; still feeling a touch wonky, but nothing dramatic. Got a lot done on a really tough puzzle over the past few days, though (progress pics over at my FB). Really looking forward to getting home and finishing it tonight. And started rewatching Game of Thrones last night, catching up on the new season, so my head's full of that. Today I can't get Facebook to load properly, so if I haven't responded to someone over there, that's why. On to linketies.
