Different Day, Different Story

Yesterday I didn't shed one tear...not one. In fact, in the morning I felt almost good. But I think I had my hopes up from that conversation I had with Andrea where she told me everything that JC had talked to her about the night before. By the afternoon, I talked to his roommate, Velma, and then I was in a huge depressive state, but still had no tears. Today...well, today is a different story. On the verge of tears, blurry vision because of tears, knots in my stomach, etc.

I had an appointment with my ENT this morning. She said everything is looking good. My dad thought she had said at the hospital that I was the worst case of the DAY, but today she told me that I was the case she had ever SEEN! And she would keep well in supply of pain medication whenever I needed it. I don't know if that's good for me. Andrea was looking up all the side effects and bad stuff about any Hydrocodone product online last night, and it's a little scary. Yea, I might be a little addicted. I have to admit that it helps me sleep through all of this, and that when I'm "high" I don't feel like crying. I'm calmer, and I think I'm using it as a crutch. So, the bad part of the appointment? She asked me if I was eating ok, and I burst into tears. Because the truth is I haven't really tried to eat anything. I haven't wanted to all because of JC. How can one person make you feel so bad? So, after she already felt bad for me because I was the worst tonsilectomy that she had performed, I've also had to deal with this other crap. My tonsils have been the least of my worries...

Yesterday I got an email from the ex-boyfriend who found this site and had been leaving comments. My first thought was to delete it, and not respond, and then I thought better of it. Maybe there is something to karma, and I could definitely use some relationship karma! So, I wrote him what I thought was a very nice, appropiate email in return. I meant everything I said, and I hope it helps him to feel better because I never meant to hurt him...probably the same way that JC never meant to hurt me...but this ex-boyfriend always told me that "what goes around, comes around"...and maybe it does. Maybe he prayed enough for JC and me not to work out...who knows...But in the end, regardless of my current situation, it made me feel better to maybe finally make peace with him...

Just what I've always wanted -- a junkie for an out of town guest!

Ha ha ha!

Hmmmm... You gotta wonder why this ex boyfriend is contacting you. Just to be nice? (I'm a suspicious person by nature)
No, he's always contacted me off and on. I'm not suspicious of it...I kind of know what he wants...I just usually ignore it...but he sent another email telling me how much better I made him feel with all the things I said. I think I did the right thing.

Am I Going To Die? I just got stung for the first time ever by a wasp . . . So far so good . . . I can still breathe, I haven't swelled up like a balloon, yet . . . But it hurts and itches like crazy!!! It's almost the end of the semester and I am completely swamped! Two projects, two papers, and three finals, all in the next 3 weeks . . . Somehow I'll handle it. I've actually all of sudden "woken up" where school is concerned. I've been in such a daze for like the last 7 or 8 months. The AOC has changed my life as I knew it . . . in good and bad ways!!! Bad because he takes up too much of my thoughts . . . and I need all the brain capacity that I can get!!! Somehow, after years of barely even talking to anyone at work, and only a couple of years of actually being a little more friendly with my co-workers, I seem to have been sucked up in "office politics" and I HATE it! I used to really like going to work . . . now I just want to quit!! It still...

DIY Faux Brick Wall with German Schmear

Written February 14, 2021, when I tried to start a  WordPress blog , but failed because I'm old and it's too complicated. My estranged (?), separated (?), I don't know what, husband, and I actually worked on this together.  I watched 1,000 YouTube videos and read another 1,000 posts on how to do this.  In the end, I took a little from here and a little from there. The faux brick paneling was bought from Home Depot.   We cut the seams with a Ryobi jigsaw , used liquid nails and a Ryobi nail gun to attach the panels, and used joint compound mixed with a bit of water for the schmear.  It's a perfectly, imperfect technique.  I practiced a little, but decided to just jump in and let the wall take on a life of it's own.  I will warn that the joint compound dries much whiter than you think it will.  Use sparingly if you want to see more brick. Once the wall was finished, I painted the other walls Sherwin Williams Perfect Greige .  Shelves and floor...
"He's Just Not THAT Into You" Sheesz...did someone really need to write this book? Why couldn't women just be left alone in their lonesome deceiving torture upon themselves. No, really...seriously...we like not knowing the truth and playing games with our own minds. What will we have to talk about with our friends if we can't say, "What do you think he meant by this?" If everytime you have to question a man's motives or make excuses for him, and the answer to everything is simply, "He's just not all that into you"...there will be no glimmer of hope...none whatsoever...a girl won't even be able to fool herself into thinking that she can ever possibly find someone. I know I know I know...the truth hurts, and the truth also sets you free...but you'll have to be very secure in yourself and not prone to beating yourself up in order for the truth to really set you free...otherwise the truth only makes it harder to move on. So, thi...
