I had a salad today that I’ve ordered many times before, but today I had to pick around some kind of bitter green that Google tells me might be endive. This is not good food.
I downloaded roller coaster tycoon and it wasn’t nearly as fun as I remember.
I measured wrong and the blackout shades I bought for your bedroom don’t fit. Not only am I going to have to go to the store again to return them, I am having trouble fall asleep with so much light coming in our window.
I tried to go swimming… But the warm pool isn’t open due to staffing issues. I’ll try again at 12. Although the walk there and back (6 minutes max each way) is extremely tiring
I have memory loss that I didn’t realize I had.
I was joking about just remembering to take my trash to the curb for the first time in three weeks the other day and then realized that I didn’t know/remember what hashtags were yesterday and had to google it.
That was not funny and was actually scary.
Going to get a referral to the neurologist (if I need one- I have no idea how medicine works and when/if I need referrals) from the PT or at least get that convo started with him next week. Dang it, UGH.
That’s the freakiest part of that type of injury! Also remembering having known things, but not knowing them in the present. How does that even work!?
Neurologist is a good plan, it’s nice to have an expert weigh in and reassure you that you’re healing even when it’s scary.
I’m sorry that’s happening to you, that’s scary!
Try to write down all the instances you realize afterwards (e.g. the trash, hashtag) so you can just hand the list to the neurologist. Doctors love it when I have lists (and that’s just for boring stuff at well visits for me and my kid), we’re both able to get more out of the appointment time. Plus with something scary like memory loss a physical thing like a paper list would be like a security blanket for me.

My tiny duplicate prodded me really hard in the abdomen. I did not need that right before dinnertime.
My kid didn’t put away the leftovers after dinner. The dogs ate them instead. A few litres of fried rice. So the dogs were up puking all night, on average every 0.8 hours. I have not slept and am totally nonfunctional.
This morning there is no power at the airbnb I manage. The electrician can only do an emergency call if I can babysit two toddlers.
Too tired. Too fucking tired.
I read a Reddit thread ranting about women’s clothes and now I’m cranky about women’s clothes and want cargo pants that fit my ass without having a huge gaping waist.
If you find those, maybe we can find shirts that fit my shoulders and arms without billowing out like a tent around my midsection. Clothing for actual people is hard.
And I want pants that fit my waist without a huge gaping and sagging ass area.
And I want some real fucking pockets in my dress pants. And for those pants to be affordable. $200+ MM Lafleur? WTF?
I know - we should start the Million Pocket March! I want some pockets big enough to hold something - some barely let you carry a key!
I can barely fit my wallet in my dress pants pockets. It’s so annoying.
Saturday was rainy and my raincoat didn’t fit
I borrowed my mums dog walking raincoat for the duration
today looks like rain. On my way out I grabbed the raincoat off the closet floor (must have slipped) and water poured off. Did I put it away that wet? Did a water bottle spill? Nope. Not water. Cold cat pee all in the raincoat, the grocery bags on the closet floor, my swimming bag, entry way rug… And I will come home to that plus a pee raincoat in the bathtub.
Also, per the new usual, I’m on under 6 hours of interrupted sleep.
Today is full of mandatory tasks and I am not functional.
PERCY!!! NO!
I once saw a friend’s cat gleefully hop into a big bin of plastic grocery bags only to flash a brief look of horror, release of urine, and panicked attempt to hop back out. Textures are important.
I have a dentist appointment today. And while I’m grateful to have dental insurance now, paying with a check is just so easy. Now I’ll have to do paperwork and stuff. On top of sensitive pregnancy gums, difficulty laying flat on my back, and generally not having nearly the energy level to make small talk- particularly when hands are in my mouth.
On the bright side, I can afford an access dental care. That’s still pretty damn cool.
I don’t want to be a parent today. I’m exhausted and hurting and too hot and hungry but can’t eat and my kid is being a dick and I just want to walk away.
