What things give you energy?

Hahaha If I knew, I’d do them more often

Today I woke up in a mood. I didn’t want to do anything. I decided I was just going to shower and drink coffee. I have done both those things. I had three cups of coffee. I felt ok showering though my back cramped up like it usually does.

I listened to Coldplay for most of the time I have been up, which has only been a couple of hours. I ate. My bro in law made a burger and it was good. He also made potato salad which was good. I also had a turkey sandwich. I just took my Latuda because I figured I might as well. I just did my med boxes for the week. I have to order my OTC stuff and vitamins. I wish my allergy med wasn’t so expensive. I wanted to get a baseball book but now it doesn’t seem wise. I will get it eventually. And the baseball isn’t boring Tshirt. Baseball season will be over next weekend. Then the playoffs will start. I am sort of interested.

I am tired despite me having three cups of coffee. I didn’t really sleep well during the night. I kept waking up from weird dreams. Luckily no headaches. I am not sure what I am going to do this evening. Ballgame was this afternoon. They are still playing as it is 0-0 right now. I might read for a couple of hours. I don’t know. I tried reading last night but it didn’t happen. I just couldn’t focus.

I thought about writing something more for my book but I don’t really know how to put it. I thought about writing about the time a NP made me uncomfortable when I saw her for a foot problem not a transgender issue. I didn’t get any support from my pcp at the time. I have since left that practice due to other reasons. But healthcare professionals really don’t know much about trans health care or even gender affirming care. It is sad.

The temp is cool today though it is rainy, again. Next week I hope to go to my cousin’s house that is south of Boston. Hope the weather that day is nice. I haven’t looked at the weather report because it can change between now and then. It’s kind of cold in my room. I just put on PJ pants. I still have my fan going to give me some air. It’s not that cold yet for me to turn it off.

What’s your all-time favorite album? #WPDP

What’s your all-time favorite album?

This is so hard to choose just one. Mary Chapin Carpenter’s Stones in the Road and Taylor Swift’s Fearless TV is a tie. I also like Mary Chapin’s Come on, Come On album as second.

Pearl Jam Ten and VS, Soul Asylum Grave Dancer’s Union. Are all my top favorites as well as Linkin Park’s Meteora.

In a mood

I woke up around noon and I was in such a mood. I got a message from my pcp asking why I needed my pain meds refilled because it was only 2.5 weeks since it was filled and apparently, ten pills was supposed to last me 30 fucking days. I have had a lot of pain recently so I told them this. I still haven’t received a refill yet. Ugh. I hate this bullshit. Then I read that the GOP republicans in the House aren’t getting their spending cuts so we are probably going into another shutdown of the government. Great. Means my sister will be furloughed or not paid. I am so mad.

I had to get more half and half as there was none. I tried having a cup of coffee with my sister’s creamer and it was not coffee. I don’t know what it was. I drank like ¾ of it and then dumped it. I had to go to the grocery store. My phone needed to be charged so I figured I would go when it was. I left the house with cab vouchers and no headphones. I only had $20. I bought literally three things, turkey breast, half and half, and some pre-made chicken for lunch. It came to over $21. I had to use my debit card for like $2. I am glad I am getting paid on Monday. I need to go there again and get something for my cousins get together Tuesday. I have no idea what to get them so I am thinking a cheese platter of some kind. And some soda I like because they told me to get something I like to drink. I forgot to get some Gatorade. I only have four bottles left before I can put in my grocery order for the month. The lemon-lime is out of stock right now. If they don’t become in-stock by the time I place my order, I will have to go to the store and get some.

I left the store as it was a nice day and went to what I thought was a bus stop. Turns out they fucking moved it so I had to walk two blocks to catch the bus. Luckily, the next bus was at a red light so I could board. I am so fucking mad. My city keeps doing shit like this and letting the T get its way. If I wasn’t feeling good, there was no way for me to have walked the two blocks. I would have had to go back to the store to have a cab take me home. Just kills me because I used to be able to walk from that location to my house nearly every day when I worked in that area.

I came home and ate the chicken I bought and made a decent cup of coffee. I ate slow so I wouldn’t have to worry about choking. Some of the chicken was dry so I was careful. It sucks I have to eat mindfully all the time. I can’t eat fast or I might take a too big of a bite and then have problems swallowing it. Just sucks.

I need to take a shower and shave. It has been only two days since my last shave and already I am having some hair on my face again. I have to do something about my mustache because it’s all over the place. I might trim it again. I don’t know. Maybe I will try and get it like my Uncle had his. I can experiment now that I have a decent trimmer. Just hope I don’t mess up and have to take it off.
