Wee hours, gambling, swollen, and still here…

What is the earliest that you ever woke up and stayed up from?
I think I broke my record, this morning I awoke at 2:04 AM and I have been up ever since.
Actually, I am not doing too badly, considering.
Although, when I couldn't sleep I came in here with my cup of java, and started up this techno marvel to check all my emails, and messages from Facebook friends and my stats on this Blog and then went on to play a marathon of dominoes on Yahoo.
I must have sat here for nearly 4 hours, nonstop, without thinking about getting up for any good reason, because I was determined to win back my 500 point loss. Yes, that's true I had a rating of nearly 1800 last Wednesday and fell below 1300 that was the lowest score I believe I ever had since I started playing the game several years ago.
The game is not played for money and there is no notoriety, no one knows who you really are, it's just for fun.
But my determination of sitting here, for so long, trying to win back those points, makes me realize that it's a good thing that I don't gamble.
It could be a problem for me, albeit we don't have legal gambling that nearby for me to take advantage of such a thing, thankfully.
Yawn here; guess that I am getting a little drowsy now, suppose that's normal after all I've been up for over 16 1/2 hours already.

Oddly enough, you know that thing that they tell people who fly a lot to try and get up and move around and not sit still for so long, since it can cause detrimental health issues with circulation in other words, possible clots. And some people, like me, who aren't so mobile anymore, should get up as often as they can, about every half hour to make sure that that doesn't happen to them.
Oops, I knew what I should've been doing, but I was obsessed with the game.
And crazy me, since now I do have two lumpy ankles, just from them dangling while sitting and so that is why I spent most of the day with them up on pillows, not here in front of the computer, since that's what all the sites that we searched said that I should do.

Hubby and I both took turns searching the net to see what could be done, after all, it is Sunday and there are no doctors around and it wasn't an emergency, since if it was I would've been long gone, as in dead, by now.
Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to be helping and both ankles appeared to look the same as they have all day. Any suggestions by any of you would be most helpful. I did take an extra 81 mg aspirin, just in case, since you never know. I am already taking blood pressure, heart and cholesterol medicine including in that, an ace inhibitor. So if it is something ominous... I got that all covered too.

Yes, I do know it's a holiday weekend so I will wish you all a very happy good night and ask you kindly to count all your blessings and share those overages and we will too!

And next time please be here or be square, ya hear!

PS: I only have won back a little over 200 points of my loss, half the fun is in trying, in case you were wondering.
