Happy Monday for those celebrate.
It's a glorious blue sky day in San Francisco, very typical for October where we tend to have some of our warmest days. And a welcome change after an extra foggy summer.
I spent most of Sunday doing all the household chores I'd been avoiding for a couple weeks: cleaned the Guinea Pig cage, did the dishes, vacuumed the house, took out the garbage.
Consequently I arrive at the beginning of the week being Slightly Ahead Of The Game. Which is rare on any day but particularly on a Monday.
Trudged off to Pilates at 9am this morning filled with "I don't wanna" but I did and it's done.
I have therapy this afternoon and will do some errands while I'm out in the car and since I'm possessed with the rare spirit of productivity, I might do some laundry.
Grab that executive function when it makes an appearance, I say.
ION, I can't fucking believe that Bari Weiss is now in charge of CBS news.
WTF. I really hate her.

You have to ride that wave of executive function as far as it will take you. Pro tip: don't sit down. Sitting down derails the whole thing.
Aw Tim, that's rough. I'm sorry you guys are navigating this.
He went to the ER yesterday for 2 bags of fluids after he blacked out briefly in the hallway to the bathroom at 3 am Saturday night. That was exciting. I woke up to a loud ker-thud, immediately thought "WTF did the cat just knock over," rolled over in bed, realized Tim was not in bed and quickly put 2 and 2 together. As he explained later, "I started seeing spots and thought I should lean against the door frame [editor's note: not a solid, closed door; the door FRAME. but in his defense, it was 3 am and his BP was probably like 20/4], and then I was on the ground." So as near as he can tell, he blacked out for maybe a few seconds. By the time I got to him, he was conscious, just fuzzy.
Sunday morning he called the cancer center's on-call weekend line, and they were like, yeah, please get your ass to the ER. And the ER doctor concluded it was just dehydration. This is after he got a bag of fluids on Friday. (Looks like he should have gotten 2 bags.) After the ER gave him 2 bags of fluids and all his tests came back fine, his BP was in the triple digits and they cut him loose. He really needs a better system for staying hydrated.
Scary stuff! Staying hydrated is easier said than done.

Walter Cronkite is rolling over in his grave.
