Woke up about midday, feeling rather rotten and in a lot of pain. Spent most of the day in bed, and wasn’t well enough for my bath when the carer came. She did some tidying up though, and brushed my teeth in bed.

Did go on the computer for a bit to do dailies, and confuse the raid leader in our guild by only being signed up as tentative instead of accepted Ordered Indian food as Johan was raiding, but it wasn’t as nice as from around the corner.

Tomorrow is my appointment at the CFS clinic, which my M.E. consultant wants me to go to. I’m hoping I’ll be well enough to travel.

I forgot to do a photo for today, so I’m writing from the future This is what I’d planned to take a photo of, anyhow.

Got up and dressed when favourite carer arrived, then went on my computer and did dailies then levelled Elisaveta. I was planning on going out to sort out my bus pass and buy the back rest for my bed, but wasn’t feeling up to it so sent Johan out to do it instead. When he came back I sorted out the bed rest. It was rather uncomfortable by itself, but once I piled my pillows and cushions on it it’s actually quite comfy and supportive, and makes it a lot easier to sit up in bed.

Pain was bad and spent much of the evening fighting nausea, before sleeping badly.

Cinema day! In the morning/early afternoon played on World of Warcraft and watched Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince. Got ready in the afternoon (it takes carers about 10-15 minutes to get me ready… me doing it by myself takes 3 hours…) then left about 7.30pm to get the bus to the MetroCentre. Got there, went to the cinema to pick up tickets and then went for a McDonalds for tea.

Part 1 started at 9pm, and was good It was nice not having to concentrate too much because I’d seen it before, but it did refresh my memory a lot for things. I got upset when Dobby died

After Part 1 finished, we went to sort things out, and bumped into Kate Stanforth We chatted for a bit, and she’s even more awesome in real life than she is online She was also really easy to talk to, which made it the best part of the night

We went upstairs to the Gallery, munched on chocolates while trying to sort out a taxi (and getting nowhere) then went in to see Part 2. It was awesome, though the makeup in a certain part was comical rather than convincing I did manage to spill my drink and popcorn everywhere, but that’s dyspraxia and M.E. for you

When it finished Johan continued the search for a taxi, and we ended up finding one. The taxi driver was really good, and gave us his cab number, name and the phone number for his cab in case we ever get stuck for a taxi again When I got in I went online for a little bit, then went to bed.
