And we are so fragile, and our cracking bones make noise...

We did not, in fact, drive to California yesterday, because Schwab is dumb and told us we had more money available then we did. And when it turns out we didn't, they were unable to transfer the money to where we could get it because it was the day before a holiday and their computers were shut down or some bullshit like that. So, no money for gas - or, you know, food - until Tuesday.

It's probably just as well that we didn't make the drive yesterday, because by around eight last night the pain in my ear and jaw and... okay, the whole left side of my face had gotten so bad I was on the verge of tears. So we got to make a visit to the ER - which, by the way, is my least favorite thing ever - and wait for hours while I whimpered in pain until finally they gave us more antibiotics and some tramadol.

The tramadol does take the pain down from literally incapacitating to just mildly agonizing, however, it also wears off every four hours like clockwork (I know this because I woke up every four hours almost on the dot), it makes me even more nauseous and dizzy than I was, and I only have enough for three days, so if the pain hasn't gone down significantly by then, I am going to kill things.

So I'm lying in bed now, in the hopes that being horizontal will help the nausea and dizziness, and kind of miserable. I can has happy things, internets? Recs to happy fics or pretty musics or... I dunno, kittens... Anything to distract me right now would be much appreciated.

Okay, now, I don't know how good this is, but somebody from the Cafe linked me to a Doctor Who/Firefly crossover that's called "The Man With No Name" for Whoniverse posting and "A Life Less Extraordinary" for Browncoat posting, and I've read the first bit and it seems well enough. SO.

I give you: "The Man With No Name" (http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3486089/1/The_Man_With_No_Name)
