Thrive to spite them

Hil a lot of job~ma your way!!

So yesterday was a mixed bag. Talked to one of the therapists (he got really excited when I explained about the board and how there's a BSG board game being played...he's a nice guy) he had his own set of questions and he also seemed to be the only one who really GOT that this whole sitting around waiting and not having any idea of when things are going to happen (big picture wise ) is really really stressful for me.

So he pulled down a calaneder and showed me when I'll meet with the team (today possibly during one of the groups I want to go to). And explained kind of what will happen. There's a social worker who can help me talk to work. And then we marked out other times I'll probably meet iwth the doctor and mapped out groups I'll want to go to.

Which helped. It looks like I'll get my own room today (well I hope. depends on if people are discharged as planned) but it's up there on Things I Need.

I heard from my therapist and that was good.

So that's all the news I have

askye, it sounds like you have a good therapist there. I'm glad he seems to understand what you need.

he does a few things activities and mindfulness and narrative therapy so he won't be the main person I work with. he's a geek. There is ZumBa later this week not sure how that works when no one can wear shoes with laces.

There are trainers with velcro closings; I have a pair myself. Maybe they have you do it barefoot?

I'm doing everything I'm supposed to do for GD, and my numbers are still all over the place. Some days perfect, some days crazy high on the same food and taking my glyburide. It's really stressing me out.

The person from the school in Connecticut just emailed me to let me know that another candidate accepted an offer there, so I'm not interviewing there after all. (I'm not too disappointed about this one -- that school didn't seem like a great fit for me.)

Hil, is this the one with the uniforms?

I guess people have shoes with velcro or maybe it's modified. Still haven't seen a team really want to. Everyone was like -no first thing in the morning you'll meet with them and then it was like - yeah between 10 and 11. I did go to a group but it happened to be led by one of the therapists I don't click with. Which is fine I just have to figure that out how to work around it.

Also I miss Second Life I'm usually chattering away with people about nothing in particular or having fun. My in person social life is non existent but my online is pretty good and so I'm actually being less social here than when I was more "isolated".

Plus I don't feel like I haev anything interesting to say here except updates on what's going on. I tried watching netfix but it made me oddly anxious. I think I'm worried about getting in trouble.

They have a system where you can request things from the gift shop and sometimes you get them and sometimes you don't. I think volunteers fill it and it depends on what's available. I asked for face lotion since my skin is so dry here and a small stuffed animal. Figured it was faster than asking Will to bring me something. Just something to pet, I miss my cat.

I should have asked Will to bring the gorilla Tom Scola gave me as part of Secret Santa exchange ages and ages ago.

Of course I'm also hoping they'll be like - hey we're sending you home in a few days.

Yeah. It didn't feel like a good fit for me, anyway. I've interviewed at some other schools that felt a lot better -- ones that do more project-based and inquiry-based learning, that don't have AP classes and do more cooperative learning.

Just finished another interview. I think it went OK. I'm getting better at these, but I'm sick of doing them.
