MRI complete. Apparently I’m getting an o2 consult. I should have been on oxygen this whole time. Rib pain is affecting the depth oh breathing.

I’m honestly writhing in pains and they don’t want to give me Tylenol “because you’d be on too many meds.”
That’s not how Tylenol works. Tylenol potentates narcotics.

Haven’t been on several days because I fell, broke 3 ribs (during a severe Ménière’s attack). Then I had difficulty with speech. This has been my last four days

The multiple, public “suicides” by hanging, committed by Black men over the past couple years.
Yall find it almost impossible to see past your own noses.
Then wonder why we don’t trust you.

Six days ago federal officers murdered a man in the streets of Minneapolis and we still don't know their identities. Is there any modern precedent for this?

My ex let me know that our cat Ozzie died.
Ozzie was the kitten I drove to Missouri to get. We had just lost his dog, and my ex primarily worked from home. He bonded with the cat. So he took Ozzie and the dog Eddie in the divorce.
He let me know a while ago that Oz had cancer.
Such good kitty.

My cats..
Honestly I need a break from them.
That sounds whiny but Lucy is a loud cat and I haven’t been getting decent sleep. And I have done it all. I check boxes and water and food. We play before I go to sleep, sometimes an hour.

I finally got my teeth fixed from when I fell on my face. I had no idea how much those chipped teeth made me feel like crap.
Also my nose is numb.

If I do get a tv I’ll get a Roku stick. If they are still around. But I need to decrease the stuff I own. Down to a studio at least. I would like to have a Winnebago situation. Honestly, I’d love to have a partner, like a business partner, and a clinic in a trailer set up.

So over 3 years ago my broken leg had healed and my then partner helped move my tv into the living room and said they’d help me hook it up the next day.
After that I’ve tried several times to change my service to WiFi only and I finally did.
I’m going to donate that tv.

I had a Comcast account pre college. I got rid of it when I went to college. I had dsl.
I graduated in 2025.
That entire time Comcast wouldn’t let me link my current account with my phone number, citing the other account.
Finally, they have fixed it.
It only took 20 years.

January in the pharmacy. People learning about deductibles for the first time.
This woman just learned that the plan she paid for … she won’t receive any benefit bc her deductible is $3000 and her meds are $100 a month out of pocket.

So yeah. Augmentin.
I’ve been mildly sick for 3 weeks (and masking wherever I go) but now it’s so much worse.
So I made it to urgent care.

I have a coworker who likes to imply that the main reason I work full time is because I didn’t save enough money.
I snapped on Monday and informed him about going through 401k money for a funeral, for using my divorce settlement for medical bills and helping to feed my father and stepmother.

I want to be perfectly clear that for once in a long time… my goal isn’t to just live through this year.
I have no intention of harming myself or others.
I’m going to take care of myself.
But I have been barely surviving for 7 years and I’m not going to have that be my focus.
