Well, I'm home early from my therapy. Why? Because of a car issue. I drove to tdoc's office (about 30 mins away) and parked in her complex parking lot. For some odd reason, I attempted to restart my car, only to find the battery dead. I had to call roadside assistance. I didn't think they'd arrive for at least the length of time of my therapy, but they came only 20 mins in, so I had to leave therapy early. Tdoc told me I was hypomanic. Maybe I was a little, but the whole shabang wasn't exactly helping with excitability. She suggested that I warn the service rep at Honda that if I seem excitable, that that's just a mood state I am in. I confess that I laughed at that suggestion and kind of mocked it, but not in a way that would offend her. I mean, like, "Sir, if I seem bat **** crazy, don't worry! It's just a mood state. I'm actually harmless."

Roadside assistance guy managed to jump start my car, so I drove directly to the Honda dealership near my home. I was paranoid that it would stall for some off reason (I drive stick), so I was revving the sucker all along the way. If it had stalled along the way, it is certain that the spot would not be as friendly for assistance as my therapist's parking lot. Traffic is nuts along the way. I had to drive on Route 1, which is not exactly a place you'd want to stall, and then on these narrow congested roads from then on. We'll see what the Honda service person says. I hope it's just my battery, which is still under warranty. I told him I wanted to go home, rather than wait. I was ready to walk home (about 15 mins walk), but they insisted on driving me. I accepted because it's raining. And no, I didn't have to warn him about myself. I was calm and as sweet as pie.

When the driver got me home, I realized that the service rep hadn't given me the rest of my keys. I had to go to a secret place to get "emergency" keys. Luckily I'm in the house and not planning to leave for the rest of the day. What a way to find a good excuse not to have to go to French class!

I just took the extra prn Seroquel a few minutes ago. Boo! But at least now it's sunny. I won't go outside, though, for fear I'll forget the emergency keys and really be locked out of the house. Then I'd have to walk to the Honda dealership and get my regular keys.
