Going down a rabbit hole
I’ve been up since 5. I finished my library book. It took me two hours to finish. I tried going back to sleep but couldn’t. I just rested. Then I got a headache soon as I laid down. The headache turned into a migraine and my head hurts so bad right now. I got up around 11 as my cousin called and said he would be by. I asked him to get me some half and half as he was going to the store. It was all I needed. I had my coffee while I waited for him.
I did my meds after he came by. I also brushed my teeth. I need to shave but I think I will wait till tomorrow. I checked on the college app to see if there was anything for Italian and the professor had already posted stuff. I read the syllabus and it made me anxious. There is going to be an oral exam and I fear my accent is going to fuck me over. It’s bad enough I can’t pronounce things in Duolingo sometimes. Maybe having a conversation will be easier. I looked at the review and don’t remember the forms of the verb Essere. I have to look it up. I will do it tomorrow as my head is going to kill me.
I opened my laptop and went down a rabbit hole with Amazon. I spent nearly an hour chatting with them trying to get a digital album that I had problems downloading. I talked to four different people. The last person said to wait an hour for the system to clear and then try again. I will try tomorrow. I had enough bullshit today. I just wanted to blog and instead chose a rabbit hole…
I keep having anxiety over school, which isn’t helping my headache. I finally told one of my sisters about my gallbladder. I really hope it doesn’t flare up more than it has. I keep getting bloated every time I eat something. I have some discomfort in my side but it is tolerable. I hate that the only option is surgery. I sent my pcp a reply as I found an article today about long Covid impacting exercise and when I looked at the symptoms, there were similar to what I have been experiencing. So maybe I am not deconditioned like my doc thinks I am. It’s just strange to me that suddenly I went from being able to walk a couple blocks without a problem to it suddenly being a problem. Every time I walk to the bus stop, I am short of breath by the time I reach it. It is all flat streets, no hills or incline. If I go to the pharmacy around the corner there is a bit of an incline as I reach the end of the street and going up Broadway. My town is wicked hilly. Hence the city on the hill. I wish I was able to finish that Boston history class. It was interesting but I really wasn’t getting much from it.
I don’t have anything to do tomorrow other than try and do the Italian work. The class doesn’t seem too intensive but I do have to go to the language lab at least for a few weeks consecutively. It meets in the morning which is going to be a problem and then I will have an hour until my next class. This week I will be out of the house Tues till Friday. I set alarms so I will be up, hopefully.
