Once again I’m getting off the meds.

They’ve slowly reduced the amount of morphine sulfate I’ve been taking over the past few weeks and now deem the dosage low enough that I can successfully get off of it.

It’s still not a lot of fun.

I didn’t sleep more than a few hours last night and none of it was consecutive (I kept waking up… tossing and turning). I finally went to the couch so that my wife would be able to sleep (I didn’t want to wake her up). Today, I’m beat and my guts are going absolutely wild (read: the toilet is my best friend).

It’s not nearly as bad as it was the last time I thought I could go clean… but then again, I was taking a lot more back then.

Other news: We’re going out today to see if we can’t find my wife a new motorcycle to replace the one we sold. She likes how the Suzuki Intruder 1400 fits, but wants something with retro style fenders and such (we like the cruiser look). Finding something with the correct styling that she fits on has proven to be a challenge. She’s only 5′ 3″ and the cruiser style bikes have fat tanks (making it hard for her feet to reach the ground).

We’re been to all the dealers in Spokane and are heading into Idaho to see what they have. Hopefully we find something today.
