I totally believe that the stress of knowing our house guests were coming was what set this off.

I was told earlier that they're going to be here for potentially another 3 or 4 weeks, and I swear that hearing that made my skin go more numb and made me feel so much more icky and MSish.

I just discovered something. I was trying to dry a bra so that I'll have something to wear later, and it cant be dried in the dryer, so I was using a hair dryer on it to give it a head start...I discovered that cool air from a hair dryer blowing across numb skin feels really really good.

Now if I could just figure out something that feels good on feet that are screaming because the spasticity is making my toes curl. I had an ice pack last night, but sometimes it was too cold.

If I wasnt so tired right now, and my feet werent too numb to drive, I'd go up to walmart and buy myself some new sweatpants or some pajama shorts that are too big for me...and some t-shirts that are a lot bigger so that I'd feel more comfortable. Clothing is driving me nuts!

I'm falling asleep right now, so I think I should just give in to that, since it might be the only way for me to get some sleep tonight...do it when it happens, rather than trying to sleep later on at the usual time.
