'Harm's Way'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
It was a highlight of my day.
Which was my dad's birthday and I forgot. Except to call him at 10 pm. I also lost track of mom's and my nephew's and other important dates this month.
And I can't sleep. I am probably drinking too much caffeine at night. I didn't used to have this problem but maybe my tolerance for caffeine is changing.
Early this morning I had a classic "unprepared for class" anxiety dream. Why, brain, why?
I think I was BS-ing my way through it fairly successfully, but then the school flooded and we had to wade out into the streets and swim home.
Why, brain, why?
Sheesh, dcp brain, do better!
Sorry about the insomnia, askye. I had to give up caffeine other than in the morning long ago, and now am on decaf only. At least I feel less bad about the quantity of coffee I drink in the morning! I did a 50/50 blend for however long 2 bags of coffee lasted me, then went decaf.
Poor DH really screwed up his back. He's been in pain for 2-3 days, but getting worse rather than better. I hope to get him to go to a chiro today. Asking around for recommendations since we are in NY. Also, I actually worked myself into a sweat trying to get his socks on for him. I don't know how he manages it. His feet and legs are stupid big. Looking at getting extra wide socks because his have to cut off circulation.
Laura, I use heat patches for when my back's worse than usual. I make sure to get the ones that actually heat rather than relying on capsicum to create the feeling of heat. There are also pain relief patches, which I haven't tried. Yet. I'm suggesting them as an interim solution until you get him to a chiro or someone.
And in re socks, I was once staying with my mother and sister right after sister had her first knee replacement surgery and she needed my help to get her surgical compression socks on. Those were also hard to pull on, since pulling too hard hurt her. I guess my tickling her foot didn't help either ....
He bought some pain relief patches. When he gets up I'll try and talk him into alternating heat and cold. Left a message for my niece to see if she had a heating pad. I gave mine to my son's GF for her cramps. Of course, I have multiple microwavable ones in Florida!
I seem to be all out of work-related fucks today
TGIF?
I don't feel like the weekend will bring me any more. But maybe I am wrong.
Early this morning I had a classic "unprepared for class" anxiety dream. Why, brain, why?
I get those all the time. It's always a relief after I wake up and worried and am like: "Hey, wait a minute..."
TGIF?
I think work will be the relaxing part of today.
