*sigh*
My head is still spinning. When will it stop? I thought I was feeling better today, so I was moving around more at work, not watching my head position so much, and the vertigo set in again, making my head swim slowly. It's weird because the therapy exercises are helping, but the vertigo is changing too. It used to be that the world around me would spin and do somersaults and tip and slide unexpectedly under my feet. Now it's not so much the world that's spinning, it's the inside of my head, the brain inside my skull. =( And that's making me a little bit nauseous much of the time, where I wasn't getting nauseous at all before.
It's not bad enough to keep me home from work, thank goodness, but I haven't driven anywhere in 3 weeks. I've been carpooling to work with a couple of co-workers who live nearby. My sister has been taking me grocery shopping. Other than that, I stay home. Well, not much new about that side of things, but now I don't have a choice.
And not being able to drive leaves me not being able to submit, because I have no way to get to the auditions. And not being able to drive leaves me unable to attend this class I heard about from Bob Fraser:
==============================

===============================================================
Perhaps you may remember that this is one of the classes I mentioned in a blog I wrote a few weeks ago, this is one of the classes I've had saved in my favorites for a while.
And I can't drive to go to it.
And I just discovered that Now Casting has a 10% off coupon for Sam Christensen's classes. Well, I guess these free preview classes and the 10% coupon aren't going anywhere. (I hope the coupon isn't going anywhere.)
And there's a game show that I wanted to submit for, something about puzzle solving which is right up my alley and sounded like so much fun.
And I was looking at possibly taking a summer intensive class as well, which is up in the air while my head is still spinning.
I'm just so frustrated. But doing my best to keep my chin up. *sigh* At least I'm not on all those medications that were messing me up anymore, that's something to be happy about. At least I'm not missing work anymore, definitely something to be happy about.
I just want my head to stop spinning.
