Day 01 - Introduce yourself

For those of you that don't know me by now, my name is Bertine. Yes, that is my actual given name. I am engaged to marry [livejournal.com profile] gwangi, his given name is Zach. I live in Minneapolis, MN with Zach and our three cats. I program websites for a living and I tend to be crabby about it often but that doesn't mean I don't love it. I get migraines pretty often and complain about them more than I should but there isn't much more about them that I can do. I have random hobbies, right now it is quilting. I have a MA in History which is not useful at all for anything now that Wikipedia is around, before Wikipedia people would call me to ask me about facts on the popes.

I try to be pretty open about myself. Feel free to ask me questions on anything if you have always wondered something.

The good news is they approved botox for treating frequent migraines!!!

LOL, with my luck, I would break out in hives from it or something.

I just got some muscle relaxers because the neurologist thinks that some of my migraines are caused by tension headaches (and I think she might be right). However, I am worried that I might get hives from them so I haven't taken them yet. SIGH.

I am REALLY not at all trying to push you to get botox! That stuff is plain ol' evil.

Though I do wish they could fix your migraines.

It's really useful if you need to Phone a Friend on Millionaire!
