I'm running late for work and owing fic in several places, but I had to comment:

I read in idragosani's LJ that last night was the autumn equinox. On this, the first full day of fall.. I gotta say, it's not very "fallish" around here :( Days are shorter, mornings are (blissfully!) cooler, there are a few leaves crunching underfoot, but it still gets into the 80sF during the day and... well, I'm just not feeling it. And I want to - I want a crisp fall day with high, white sunlight and vivid gold and red trees!

Fenced - lightly - last night and stopped when I got a light poke in my low line. D. was playfully irritated because I'd told him I'd try and stick with footwork and light drills, no actual bouts. But, I just couldn't resist - A. had a new gadget, home-made remote scoring machines! They're about the size of a pack of cards with a clip to attach to your back pocket, and you plug the weapon's body cord into it. When the tip of the (electric) foil touches, it buzzes. They can't detect *where* a touch landed but the sound gives some indication *when*, so as to better judge who was "in" first. They're just damn cool :)

Experiencing some light cramping in my abdomen - perhaps the snipped bits of tube are wilting away. Not debilitating but gives me pause as I don't KNOW what it is. However, the doc only warned me about fever, tightness, and bleeding, and none of these are happening, so I'm not going to worry unless they do. Setting my belt a notch looser today, 'cos I've got to sit for the next 8 hours.

Ok, running late, more later! Leaving with a link: Tipping the Velvet lyrics, for those who've ever wondered.

It's not very fall-like indeed... they are syaing 90 degrees today. :-) A bit cooler tomorrow, though. October can't come too fast for me.

If you're off the fertility drugs.... could you be ovulating for the first time in years? Not that it's going to make a difference now, but the "mezzenschmertz" pain sounds similar, especially if they're located near your ovaries.

Not likely. Were I still on Depo I'd be due for my next shot October 1, and it will take longer than that for the current injection to "wear out" of my system.

Given the location of the pain, though, I think it's more of a "settling" going on - they opened me up and disturbed everything and now it's just relaxing.

That's probably it, then. I know I felt a lot of weird pops and clicks when I had my surgery in 2004. Icky stuff, sometimes.
