Things That Are Just Annoying

[mlooney 3,525]

I was being lazy and not getting out of bed because I really don't  have a reason to yet (breakfast can wait).  I now have a headache.  Clearly the universe doesn't want me to get up yet.  ACA taken.

[mlooney 3,525]

I had to get out of bed to pee so I got 2 breakfast essentials. 440 calories later I've had breakfast. I still have a headache, going back to bed with Explorer.

Just bashed my knee.  I should go get in bed to take weight off of it and let it be not bent, but the bedroom is beastly hot.  Of course the living room isn't much better.  Gonna take pain pills and deal with the heat.

[mlooney 3,525]

I woke up at 3, started seeing migraine auras about 4, and the headache phase started about 6:30 Barfed about 8.  Waited to "eat" breakfast.  And I didn't keep down my breakfast drinks.  Barfing chocolate "milk" isn't pleasant.

For some reason Google Pay is being rejected by both my debit card and PayPal.  Meh, I don't need the extra 100G of drive space, I can get by with 10G for gmail, only using 3 right now.

The key to the right of the Z key has gotten stuck down on the Chromebook and several others are acting weird and not responding to a push every time. Thankfully low end Chromebooks are cheap enough to class as "easy to replace, get new one."

New cheap ass rebuilt Chromebook arrives tomorrow.

I got up, ate breakfast, took a photo of Explorer, stood up, twisted my ankle, and fell on my butt.  Back in bed until the ankle stops hurting.

I'm gonna have to suck it up and go the extra distance to Braums for milk.  Walgreens is now on my shit list.  When I canceled one out of 3 prescriptions at Walgreens, they canceled all of them.  They have managed to turn my life upside down twice now.  Granted this is as major as when they went weird with the lamtitcal, but it's still a pain in the butt.

I stopped going to Walgreens about ten years ago. Further back, I took a daughter to the doctor, and filled the prescription at Walgreen. For years, they kept after me to renew the prescription. I went on their Website to tell them to take me off their mailing list. Like many businesses, they made themselves difficult to contact (but you could buy $#!% 'till the cows come home), but I kept digging, and found a chat link for customer service. I got a warm body on the other end, explained that my daughter had moved away, please stop spamming me and contact her. "We can't do that unless the customer requests it." It became impractical to deal with Walgreens after I had to block them.

Education is supposed to be a good thing, but business education seems to lead to loss of common sense. If your customers cannot contact you to resolve issues, you will lose those customers.

It's noon on the 1st Wednesday of the month.  Small City Kansas is making me think I'm hearing things.  Given how close I am to downtown, you would think that there would be storm siren that could be made out over a rainstorm.  Not So Much.  It's just a slight "Am I hearing this?" squeal. at my current house.  Next to useless in the case of real tornado.

The front as moved on. Nothing showing on radar at Weather Underground. Both knee caps feel like I took a hammer to them. This is actually a new pain and one that I hope goes away soon. If not it's plan a trip to the clinic time.

[mlooney 3,525]

Left knee is feeling fine. Right knee is a little ouchy. Right hip I think I laid on wrong because it's telling me it's unhappy. Ah the joys of being old.

[mlooney 3,525]

This getting old and having random pain thing is getting, pardon the expression, old. My right knee hurts, not a bad as yesterday. Right hip hurts, as bad or worse than it did yesterday. I have mid level headache. I've taken analgesics and am flat on my back with the knee unbent.

[mlooney 3,525]

If I'm not better by Monday I'm going to the clinic. In addtion to my aches and pains, I've been nauseous for most of the morning. Just about tossed my cookies about 5 minutes ago. Not gruntled today at all.

Hoping things go well for you.

I need to get out of bed today, but damn I hurt and acetaminophen is doing squat. At least it's just body aches, most likely due to the rain which not really forecast to end today, Afternoon it's supposed to get down to 20%ish range. 9 til 2 is over 85% with several hours at 100%. FML

[mlooney 3,525]

It's not raining at the weather station about 4 blocks from my house, but they are saying it's gonna start in about 15 minutes, I hear thunder but haven't seen any lightning flashes yet.

Oops change 2.  Just started to rain.  Big heavy drops.

[mlooney 3,525]

Hunger has won out over knee pain. Getting some high calorie stuff I can eat in bed.

[mlooney 3,525]

Just started the aura phase of migraine.  Taken ACA in hopes of it stopping it before it makes it to the headache stage.  Did last time, but not the time before that.  Gonna go off line until I know what is happening.  Reading computer screens doesn't help.

[mlooney 3,525]

They are doing work on the other side of the house. The labors are playing Mexican/South American music and sometimes singing along. This is gonna suck if I actually enter headache phase. Any load music would suck, just to be clear here.

[mlooney 3,525]

I think they are done for the day.   And also on the positive side, I'm still in aura

[mlooney 3,525]

This afternoon I had a full on migraine aura phase. Wavy lines, shimmering points of light, flashes of light, the works. Normally this means I'm about to have A Bad Time. Nope. After about 3 hours it went away. I looked it up, for some people, mainly over the age of 50, you can get the aura phase with no pain phase. Hope this happens more.

[mlooney 3,525]

Oh boy! Thunderstorms unto 10 PM. I'm over come with happiness and joy.

I need to go get milk.  I have a headache.  These are at odds with each other.  Waiting on the drugs to kick in before I go.

I feel less bad about not going for milk this morning now. It's raining.
