I've had swelling in my throat for four months now... Now my ears are blocked. *glares*

Anyway, a friend suggested we do ear candling and I was like "Bzzzzuah?" (Yes, I've been to the medico and gotten the traditional remedies aswell... eighty bucks of allergy medication later... crap!)

Apparently, you stick beez wax candles in your ears and LIGHT THEM!! It sounds like something you would do to a younger sibling when they've been pissing you off for a very long time.

So, I'm going to try it and hopefully it will not end in Charlie Chaplin-esque slapstick with me running around her house with my head on fire yelling "I KNEW this was a bad idea!"

I'm remembering a time where I looked at 105 user icons allocation and thought "what kind of crazy person could use that many?"

Yeah, them were the days.

Another RLF found this journal and commented on a story... *hands* That's two now (apart from [livejournal.com profile] pheebs1 who I can *technically* call a RLF now since I've met her... heh) Luckily, it is the cool, not likely to tease me within an inch of my life friends who are finding me.

I'm thinking my fic journal and my real journal are a leetle too similar in the naming but I can't be arsed renaming my fic journal. I know people do it and it's all fine and dandy except when I see their journals on my friend's page and am all like "Who the hell are you??"

Heh...

Anyway, next time you hear from me, I may be bald due to conflagration.

Peas out geez.

I saw a bit about ear candling on a tv show a while back. Short version: It's a waste of time.

Oh my god... melted wax on the eardrum?? Eek!

Hmmm... I may have to investigate before I actually do it.
