Youre surviving your shingles miraculously well. Who knew the trick was to get an organ removed in the meantime??!

You nut! And fall! And take a final! And have an h get siiiiiick! And come out of it all with a gorgeous Wonder Woman cape?

Pros of going home include: it's what I want to do, I think I might need the hospital and I don’t want to be hospitalized in my hometown (for a number of reasons including my parents).

Cons: I’d waste money because I already made travel plans (though I did get travel insurance for what that’s worth), I would miss out on seeing my friends (but I don’t feel like I have the energy or desire to do that anyway).

Go home. Or go early to your friends.

Be with people who don’t suck the life out of you.

I know, I still can't believe they both happened at the same time. Maybe I shoulda bought a lottery ticket...

and yes, my Wonder Woman cape was billowing out behind me as I went through the grocery store earlier.

eta: ps i'm not taking the (optional) final. Prof just finished updating my grades and with the 3 extra credit papers I wrote, my grade is 96.09%. I think that's everything so it should be my final grade but I'm not positive. I haven't gone through all of it yet.

Oh yeah I almost forgot, I hired a local cleaning company to come in and deep clean my bathrooms before my mom comes on Tuesday. They schedule 2 hours at a time, so if it doesn't take them the full 2 hours on the bathrooms, I'll have them mop all the tile in the house too (not that it's that big of a house haha). Everything else I can handle, dishes, dusting, bed making etc but mopping and cleaning bathrooms is not something I'm up to right now! And I don't want my mom to feel like she has to do it for me when she's here. H is doing laundry, dishes (before I could) etc, taking care of me and working, so I haven't asked him to do the bathrooms too. he's as happy as I am to hire someone local to do it.

See Artie being bored and spamming the couch. The cheesecake was delicious. I find myself looking forward to my mom's visit, this is a first!! But ever since we talked last July about that hate letter she wrote me many-many years ago and she apologized and I told her through a lot of work in therapy I'd forgiven her, our relationship seems to be so much easier than it had been.

Just got a call from the short term disability people at work making sure I'm going back on the 27th. I'm feeling so much better I'm sure I will be. I'm glad, I'm bored silly with this resting stuff.

It’s one version. The other is he drank undiluted wine and reacted poorly.

The joke he made was tres lame too.

I need a new a/c along with half my city - so I went and got my dog a window unit because it will be about two weeks or more before we can have the central air replaced.
I remember when dogs had to just tough the warm weather out like everyone else. Coddled pups is what this is. Spoiled rotten millennial dog.

It's just that it's one of the better apartments we've seen that fits all of our needs.

I regularly run into my now exT being in a largish town. We have never talked about it but ignore each other. The chances are you probably won't on a regular basis

Shingles biteback, cantankerous obnoxious dog owners, ageing air conditioners it all happens when I am asleep

May 17, 2019 at 05:10 PM

Chihirochild I would go home and maybe see your friends later in the week if that was possible

stopdog · May 17, 2019 at 05:12 PM

The woman lives only 4 miles from my house and is in an area where I frequently visit friends, eat at restaurants, go to events, etc and I have never seen her out and about that I noticed.
Of course I am not certain I would recognize her and know she would not remember me, but I don't think I have been any place where she has been at the same time.
OR she really is a vampire and only skulks outside after dark

How come when you are lying wondering if you should get up cats have an unerring instinct to bounce off your bladder

I am wondering whether to mow after my coffee but it looks like rain and my mower is half full and I dont money to fill it but I would get the backyard bit done.

Breakfast has disagreed with one of the cats, I couldn't buy there usual food and had to buy cheap stuff instead. Or maybe they need worming again

LonesomeTonight · May 17, 2019 at 05:31 PM

My T lives...maybe 8 miles from me? I've yet to run into him while out and about. He says he runs into clients maybe once a month (works near where he lives). That it's not a big deal. I try to mention what restaurants we frequent so at least he'd be on alert if he went there. So Scarlet, I wouldn't worry about living near your T. You need to find a place to live that works for you.

Have decided to mow the lawn well it's not lawn it's just knocking the seed heads off the weeds really.
