I am feeling pretty frustrated about a few things. One is my financial aid. They keep sending me emails saying there is missing information and then when I click on it, it says nothing is needed. I have sent numerous emails to the financial aid person in charge of my account and have not received a response. Monday billing starts. I am stressed out about it.

Then I get a notification about my books that it will be delayed. I have been waiting for nearly two weeks for this order. I’ve never had books take so long to be shipped before.

I apparently missed a good game last night. I ended up falling asleep while the game was in delay. I really was tired even though I was only up for a few hours. I was still recovering from Wed. I spent all day Thursday in bed. I didn’t eat anything.

I am wicked hot today. It is 90% humidity and only like 80 degrees. It is gross. I shaved and all I did was sweat. I had a cup of coffee and my biscuits. Someone has eaten my pasta salad. I am not happy about this. There is a little left. I might make some more, if someone didn’t make the pasta. I’m not really hungry right now but could use another cup of coffee.

Memorable vacation

Describe your most memorable vacation.

My trip to Chicago in 2003. Going to the Navy pier and a few Sox games. It was really nice.

I had a bad dream about my mother and woke up earlier than I wanted to. In a way, that kind of worked out for me as I was able to have a cup of coffee before leaving the house. My sister commandeered the kitchen so I was only able to have one cup. She was so “nice” to me this morning by calling me lazy because I didn’t use soap to rinse out my mug. That is how my morning started.

I wanted to leave the house around 1030 but the bus was coming and there was no way I could be at the bus stop in 6 mins so I had to wait 40 mins for the next bus, which meant leaving the house around 1130. I got to Starbucks around 1215 as I had to stop at the library and pharmacy. I returned the book I borrowed. After I had my breakfast wrap, I started reading Principles of Psychology. It is a very thick book. It took me almost an hour to finish the first chapter, which was pretty long and some parts I didn’t quite understand. By the time I was finished, it was time for me to leave to go to the hospital for my appointment.

I think I do have another UTI as my UA showed signs. My results are back but I can’t access them as the server is having issues. The NP was really happy my bladder is back to normal functioning. She prescribed me estrogen cream for my UTI symptoms. It was ready before I left the office. I see her in a year as long as I don’t have any issues that I need her for.

I checked the price of the cream and it is out of my budget right now so I will have to get it my next pay period. After my appointment I just stayed at one section of the building which was close to the train station. I was waiting for my friend as we had plans for dinner. She was bringing her kids. I haven’t seen them in so long. It was a good outing. I miss them so much. Dinner was good. We went to our favorite Thai place and I got pad Thai and then drunken chicken for tomorrow.

I should have used the bathroom before leaving the restaurant and I didn’t. By the time I got to my stop on the train, I had to go and I just made it to the bathroom home. I had to use my sister’s bathroom because it was closest. OMG I am so glad that bathroom saved me from wet pants. I leaked a little but damn it, I had trouble getting my pants down. Damn button on my pants and belt, man WTF. My sprained foot is wicked sore and my sister has my bottle of ibuprofen. I took some Excedrin because it has aspirin in it. I should just have plain aspirin but Tylenol won’t hurt. I walked a lot today. My foot flared up soon as I left the library so I have been dealing with it all afternoon and evening.

I am listening to my playlist of new Taylor albums. 165 songs. I love it and I don’t think there is a song I don’t like. I honestly don’t know how she picks her songs for her concerts. I would have a hard time choosing.
