You know those days that start out badly and just keep getting worse? I woke up this morning knowing I shouldn’t get out of bed, and I was right.
Nothing majorly bad happened, just a huge list of fucking irritating shit, including forgetting my bus pass and having to reinstall Office several times and still having […]
I particularly hate when I spill coffee all over myself just after I left the house — but just far enough away that it’s not worth it to go home and change. I think I am incapable of drinking coffee without pouring it onto my shirt and pants (or skirt, on less windy days).
I also […]
I got my period this week, which explains why I snapped at people Tues and Wed. But it didn’t come with its usual “wow, I think I should kill myself” introduction (or at least, not a serious one — I can’t believe I can rank the levels of premenstrual suicidal ideation), so I didn’t expect […]
I am now down to a terrible even for me cough. It’s only occasional, but several times a day. This continues to suck. I was up all night almost last night because I kept coughing myself awake. The internet, however, suggests that a good cough suppressant is dark chocolate, and I am willing to give […]
This stupid bug is dragging on forever. I have no idea what the hell is wrong. I am all stuffed up and coughing, and also nauseated. This means I am taking approximately 6 half-baths a day. I’m sticking to eating only saltines and drinking water and apple juice. So far this hasn’t helped, but it […]
My cold has morphed into a flu, or a cold-plus-high-fever. It is unsurprisingly quite unpleasant. My ears hurt. I am always out of breath, except for a very few moments if I’m in a steamy room. (I know, no evidence etc, but I do feel better when I do it, and since sitting in a […]
I now have a cold and slept all day. I still can’t breathe, but I am way less tired than I have been lately, what with the many extra hours of sleep I got, finally getting me near caught up. We will see how this works out if I am awake all night (again), but […]
So my cat seems to be gone for good. I am very upset. Distraught would be a good word for it.
Appropriate responses to this post are all along the lines of “I’m very sorry”; inappropriate ones include “I’m sure she’ll come back”, “why didn’t you do [whatever]”, “have you considered trying [something else]”, “she’s […]
Lately I’ve been thinking quite a bit about my sister — the middle one, the crazy one. When we were little, we were great friends, or as great as you can be with our age difference. Did it start changing when I became a real teenager? Did it start when she started to lose it, […]
Today I: slept. I managed to keep a consistent fever all day, despite all sorts of pills. I am no longer freezing all the time, which is nice; instead, my head hurts and my throat hurts. But I took painkillers and had ice cream and I will sleep again in a moment and hopefully the […]
