I had a shitty sleep. My sister woke me up around 630 looking for some ibuprofen. I gave her some and then tried to sleep. I woke up again around 830 to pee and took my meds. It was too early to be up so I went back to bed. I should have gotten up. I woke up feeling so tired. I had a couple cups of coffee but I didn’t make anything to eat. I wasn’t really hungry. My book edits came in. I spent some of the afternoon going over them but for some reason, there doesn’t seem to be a lot of editing. I am just going through the document and then I will go through it again more slowly. I don’t like the format of the book and I have like three blank pages. Some of the pages just have a paragraph on it and nothing else.  I need to fix it.

I laid down about an hour before game time and I think I slept for a bit or at least snoozed. I was hungry but I didn’t really know what to make. I ended up heating up some chimichangas. It was good. My sister is installing a new vanity in the bathroom and has bathroom stuff on the kitchen table. She also took off the toilet paper holder, which I am not happy about. I guess tomorrow she will paint it.

I have been in a grumpy mood all day. I don’t really know why. Yesterday was my aunt’s birthday and she misgendered me the whole time. Then her best friend pulled me aside to show me her niece who is trans. I don’t know why she did this. Like it was a big secret or something. I just felt like a misfit most of the night. My cousin got weird on me, telling me I have a “good ass” whatever that means. I should have stayed home but I hadn’t seen my aunt in a while as she is never over the house anymore.

The other day I sprained my foot/ankle. It has been killing me. I have been taking pain meds and ibuprofen to settle it down some. I have no idea how I did it but it hurts. As long as I don’t move it, it doesn’t hurt but as soon as I bear weight, all hell breaks loose. I’m not sure if it is getting better or worse as the pain varies. I know staying off my foot completely helps. The xray was clean so that was good. I just hope it clears up without having to see an ortho doc.

I am still tired even though I snoozed for a bit. I am getting a headache. Ugh. I actually woke up with a few headaches last night. Had some weird dreams. Hope this doesn’t turn into a migraine. The migraine med has been working really well and the number of migraines I get has dropped to almost zero. Tomorrow I will read something. I am not sure if it will be Anthro or psych. I still need to finish chapter 8. Yesterday I didn’t get up till 1 and I was not in the mood to do anything. I have been waking up in a bad mood lately. Being in pain sucks.

Pride and tradition. East Boston High is over 100 years old. I was the 124th class to graduate.

oh what a day

Oh what a day

I spent the day in a town outside of Boston for most of the day. I wasn’t planning on it but as I was leaving the house, the last step on my stairs, I twisted my foot and I have been in pain since. I went to urgent care after my eye appointment. I have a sprain and will be in a boot for the next week or so. I was there for three fricken hours. I took an Uber home because I wasn’t going to take the T. I was in too much pain. I don’t know how I am going to manage going to campus tomorrow. I will worry about it then.

I should have taken my textbook with me. I could have spent the two hours waiting in the waiting room reading. I have a quiz tomorrow and I have no clue what chapter 8 is about. I tried reading last night but my brain was too foggy. I couldn’t concentrate. I am trying to go over the slides but my brain isn’t registering the words. I am fried. I will try and go over it again in the morning.

I have been sad most of the day. I have been thinking about my mother. Sometimes I don’t think about her but lately, I have been wanting to call her and see how she is. Can’t believe it has been a year.

I got two new glasses at the eye place. They will be in in a few weeks. Hopefully my sprain will be healed by then. I got dry eye so need to use drops a couple times a day. I will start that tomorrow.
