Lab day and two strikes

I set my alarm for 930 so I would get up early to do the prelab but I never got up. Luckily I woke up around 11. I had some coffee and then answered the three questions for the prelab. My therapist had sent me the excused letter for last week. I forwarded it to my TA. I wasn’t going to make the bus so took a lyft to the station.

The train seemed to take forever to get to campus but I got there with an hour to spare. I took my time walking across campus to the lab. When I got in the lab, the TA told me that I have two excused absences now and a third would mean I fail the class. Two strikes basically. Third and I am out. I failed my last prelab and the pedigree assignment. I am now sitting back on an F for lab. The lab was boring today. We did DNA and mRNA stuff. It was long and by like 3pm I wanted to go home (lab started at 2). We had to get checked off today, which was good as we didn’t have to do a report or a worksheet. I think we finished before any other group. I started walking to the bus stop when we did finish, and realized I forgot my jacket. I had to walk back, which tired me out. I had to rest.

Going home was ok. I swear my bag somehow ended up with bricks as it was so heavy on the way home. I decided I was going to have some ham and finish the pasta I had the other night for dinner. My puppy wanted some but I couldn’t give her any. She stuck her little nose into my arm trying to sniff what I had. I had to laugh. I feel like having ice cream but I am way too tired. I just want to lay down. Last night I was listening to the game and fell asleep. It was close to the end anyway but the game was tied. We ended up losing. Today they have a pitcher that hasn’t allowed a hit yet so that is fun. Going to be a quick game.

Cold Monday Night

I had such a difficult time getting to sleep last night. There were planes in my area, the jerk that is my puppy’s father came in at 115am. I was not happy. My stomach was not happy with me either. I kept getting reflux.

I had therapy and told her how awful I have been. She agreed to write me a note for lab but I haven’t received it yet. We talked about my blog I sent her. I had questions for her but I didn’t feel like quizzing her. I just want the session to be over with so I could get some coffee. I woke up too late to get a cup.

I finally had my coffee and had something to eat. I tried to study but couldn’t get my mind on it. I wanted to nap. I had a half hour before the bus was coming so I rested. Shouldn’t have done it because I rested too long and then it was late. I took a lyft to the station. I had my exam. I think I did ok. There were some questions that I had no idea so took an educated guess.

I left campus around 630 and got home around 8. I am hungry but I don’t know what I want to eat. I am tired so maybe I will just get some sleep. I will work on pre lab tomorrow. I hope I get my letter from my therapist tomorrow. I hate to go to lab without it.

Easter Sunday 2026

I had a pretty good sleep despite being woken up by my sister looking for ibuprofen at whatever time and my phone going off this morning with Easter text messages. My sister woke up with a swollen face so went to urgent care. She has an abscess tooth. She is not feeling well. I suspect she will be home tomorrow. My brother in law was in the basement today and noticed our water heater wasn’t igniting. It is broke so now we need a plumber to replace it. It has been leaking for a month so I don’t understand why it wasn’t replaced sooner. He pisses me off. He is an alcoholic so does things on his schedule. Today he was a total jerk and argumentative about nearly everything. I feel for my sister who has to put up with him.

We ate early as food was ready before 2pm. My stomach is still full. I had coffee so I could study without falling asleep and that was my tipping point. I wanted a piece of pumpkin pie but I had ricotta pie instead. It was good, though my sister didn’t like it. We were spoiled by a bakery that made an awesome ricotta pie but it went out of business because they were selling the building. Trying to find a bakery that sells a good one has been hard as there are so few bakeries these days. My niece made flan yesterday and I had a bite. It was so good. I miss my mother’s custard pie. I should make it one day. I know how as she taught me. It is difficult putting the pan in the oven as you got to make sure you don’t spill it. That is the hardest part.

I did my meds for the week. I still am missing the med box from last week. I have no idea where the hell it is. Luckily, I have a spare so am using that. My gallbladder is giving me aches. I think it is because of my full stomach. I just hope I don’t get heartburn at like 2am. My allergies are fucking crazy today. I haven’t stopped sneezing since I got up. I went to set the table at my sister’s and instantly started sneezing. I don’t know if it is because of the vase of flowers or not. The pollen count is medium. And it was raining today. I got mad at the Sox today. They gave up a homerun to lose the game and to Machado of all people. God I hate him. He is a Sox nemesis because he knocked out Pedey in the prime of his career, forcing him to medically retire. Such a loss for the Sox. He ended up having his knee replaced because of that asshole. Sox are doing bad and have a losing record right now. I don’t know if I should be worried or not as the season just started. I think I will have a better decision at the end of April. They can still turn it around but fucking Weissert got to go. He has given up too many homers that have cost us games.

Saturday Blog 04042026

This morning was kind of rough. I didn’t sleep well last night. I was awake most of the night. I just couldn’t sleep. Then I drifted off to sleep only to have weird dreams. I woke up around 630 to pee. I took my morning meds and my stomach was not a happy camper. It has been bothering me most of the day.

I waited all day for my groceries to be delivered. They were late by a half hour. My brother in law helped me bring them up, well he brought most of them up. I put them away. I was really thirsty but didn’t drink anything. It has been a cold, windy day. My room is freezing. I am glad I have the extra blanket to keep me warm. Tomorrow is supposed to rain. My ankle is flared up so I don’t know if I am going to sleep.

I cuddled with the puppy after my first cup of coffee. She just laid on top of my legs. I couldn’t get a second cup. I took a few pics because it was so cute. She just curled herself into me. She licked me. I love her so much.

My psychiatrist finally got back to me but didn’t do a damn fucking thing. He wants to wait until he sees me on Thurs. fucking asshole. I hate reaching out to him.

I haven’t done any schoolwork today. I did manage to shower and that helped me feel a little better. I was listening to Love Story the whole time. I finally am getting tallied for the times I hear it again. I guess the files I had were corrupted somehow. I have paid so much money for Taylor’s music. I have nearly all her songs and collaborations with other artists. I just don’t have her first album, of all things. I have some of her songs but not the complete album. I don’t know why I haven’t bought it. I should get it.

I made a big goof on my account. I paid my sister twice so now I am short. Hopefully with the credit from the groceries order and the money I have left in there is enough until she gets the checks. I hate when I do something and then forget I do them. The only thing I really need to get is coffee because my sister likes my new coffee blend. I have half a box left, which isn’t going to last the whole month with both of us drinking it.

Pollen has been high today which with the wind, has been horrible for me. I have been sneezing most of the day and have had a stuffy nose. I hate allergies. This time of year I usually have to take my allergy pill twice a day. Sucks.
