Good Afternoon!

So we did a great Vicious Circle show last night. If you missed it live you can listen to it here.

Decided to sleep in this morning, and totally slack off once I got out of bed. Mostly sat in my PJs playing Endless Ocean Blue World until lunch.

I think I’ll add that it is pretty much official that now on less than half her standard epilepsy dose the Mrs. is experiencing some side effects.
-More Energy
-Needs Less Sleep
-Generally feels good about things.

Oh and No seizures. Epilepsy medications aren’t anything magical, they can’t stop the cause of seizures, instead they just sedate the brain, which seems to do the trick. This is also why many anti-convulsants also work quite well at treating psychosis. It just quiet downs the whole brain. The side effects of this are generally feeling more tired and needing more sleep. Since the Mrs. has been on these meds for almost 15 years, experiencing the world off them is really putting a smile on her face.

Let’s hope that the rest of the meds can be tapered off without seizures, and more wonderful side-effects!

OK Now I’m off the mow the lawn before the weather turns nasty again. Supposed to be nice seasonal weather this weekend, but I don’t trust it!
