Let the dog out to run for awhile.
More NSAIDs and back on the couch.

Flexeril works really well when you need it. Well it does for me.

Hope you get better.

Works for me too. Most of the time at least.

Thanks.

Was able to move around today. Went to the store for some garden supplies, walked the dog and enjoyed a cool evening sitting on the back porch reading.
Now off to my photography class.

little_tippler

I got up in the morning and after a shower and washing my hair, proceeded to scan my entire body for an art project. Sounds crazy, I know.

Then I got dressed, got a bite to eat, and headed out in my car, to work. Was late to work on account of difficulty parking. Worked all day in an art gallery in the sweltering heat. No air-conditioning!

Left work at about 7pm to go and work on location for an art show I'm a part of. It's in a rickety, old, falling-apart house, in a very old and quirky neighbourhood of town. It was interesting sitting on the window sill and observing the people in the street, the noises. Got set up and painted for 3 hours. The work is coming along. It's not perfect but it's better than yesterday and I'm happier with it. It's starting to look interesting!

Now I am home and after getting some food I will get back to painting, also for the show. It's almost midnight, better get cracking!

Got up, had a cup of coffee, went to work, took a stroll with my charge to the local hippie food co-op, had another cup of coffee there while sitting outside and reading the Eugene Weekly, enjoyed the quiet that ensued while my charge slept, went for a longer stroll around the historic district near my house, then came home before heading out on my bicycle to run errands; I had to purchase books for summer classes, find a pair of Lycra shorts for ultimate frisbee, and pick up some Clinique exfoliating scrub. Now I am home, enjoying the slight breeze through the window of my study that smells of honeysuckle.

Spent most of yesterday and today asleep on the couch. A funk is visiting.
Creeping out of it slowly I think.

Walked the dogs. Went to the gym. Installed a door bell. Floated in the pool. Made a couple on-line trades, sold a little of this, bought some of that etc... Now headed out to cook dinner on the barbecue, chicken and grilled veggies.

Got up at 4:12 am to go pee, per usual. Laid there until 6:15 when the alarm went off.
Showered and became sad again when someone, somewhere also decided to take a shower, therefore killing the water pressure.
Brewed coffee in the new coffeemaker... which tasted burned.
Drove to work.
Took the MMPI-2 since I had no one to see that early.
Emailed my answers to the assessor for Summer Session lab.
Drove past my previous home, previous haunts, got tearful on the way to a funeral.
Participated in said funeral, internment, and reception for almost 3.5 hours.
Drove back to the office past previous home, previous haunts and got all emotional again.
Sat in office doing paperwork, feeling dizzy and out-of-sorts.
Figured out have double ear infection and low-grade fever... thank you nurses.
Drove to final appointment of day at 4 pm in the ghetto... seriously, with pepper spray in hand... no one home.
Got back in car immediately, drove home.
Got call back from patient to reschdule for tomorrow.
Stood staring dumbly at cabinet realizing I forgot to get catfood.
Cursed self repeatedly for not buying catfood and creating a situation where I must now walk to the grocery store in the 98 degree heat to get catfood so that I don't lose my parking space and have to park in the alley where I'm likely to get broken into moreso than in front.
Surfed the net... and am currently trying to build self up to walk to grocery store.
Fighting nausea from the two lumpia I had at the reception and trying to figure out what to get from grocery store to calm tummy when I really just want food that is bad for me and will make me feel sicker.

I hate PMS. It makes everything seem really, really bad.
I'm going to the grocery store now.

Well, it's Thursday June 18th, 2008.

My husband is home this week, actually been home all week. Our son is with his uncle for the week.

So our week looks like this:

Screw like rabbits.
Drink like fish.
Walk around naked.

Our son will be home too soon. My husband will go back to work too soon.

So my day is my week, for this week anyway.

I crawled around under the house to locate a dead rat, getting covered in mud, mysterious salts, and some unknown yellowish substance. I'm hoping that substance is rat urine because that's the least disturbing of the possibilities I've imagined. And I took a shower.

No dental work or falling in love for me. I think I'm glad of both... I think. Dental work does sound appealing.

Usual routine coffee, gym, walk dogs, rake beach, few laps in the pool then float around. Now I'm thinking about spearing a fish for dinner. If I can't find one, I'm out of air in my tanks, I still have chicken from last night.

Bought SCUBA gear from a really hot redhead that totally wants me. Ooo.

Filled up the 5 Gallon for my motorcycle. Taking it out later tonight.
Played with my cat, Lord Buddha of Dark Vengeance Paw. He likes the laser on my Glock.
Drilled with my M4 / Glock 34. I gotta look halfway proficient for this advanced carbine class.
Ran some more. I'm the pale guy in the short-shorts out there at midnight.
Worked on my resume. I'm having a helluva time figuring out how to translate military jargon.

Woke up, fell out of bed
Dragged a comb across my head
Made my way downstairs and drank a cup
When I looked up I noticed I was late

Found my coat and grabbed my hat
Made the bus in seconds flat
Went upstairs and had a smoke
Somebody spoke and I went into a dream

I went to work, sat through some dull but thoroughly necessary training
Came home, played some guitar, read some news, and watched Burn Notice.

Now I sit and wait for Magpie to get home. I'll make dinner in about 2 hours. I should eat something between then and now, but probably won't.
