The Not Happy Thread

I'm sorry

 

It's ok, it is the price you pay when you live on a rural dirt road.

 

Don't I know it.

 

Losing sight of the important things because my gears are being ground by something stupid going on in front of me as I persist in trying to remain open minded because I still believe that everybody deserves a chance to be heard.

It is a serious dichotomy that I am still struggling with to this day. I should just tell the stupidity I perceive to go sell "crazy" somewhere else where it will be more apt to being appreciated as being true and/or useful to somebody equally unquestioning.

Damn, here I am again on this complex web of being babbling again.

That is all.

 

Feel awful today

In an abstract kind of way, you'd think seizures would be fun. I mean, they do give you a little bit of a 'high' feeling (at least mine do), but the drop really sucks.

 

Ever since the Windows 10 update, Microsoft Edge hasn't been working properly. Pages and images refuse to load at all.

 

@Trish that sounds terrible. I hope you feel better, or have
a way to at least manage it in some way.

 

Thank you. I'm okay, was just bitchy this morning. I don't have grand mals or anything. No drooling or pissing my pants or whatnot so it's not so bad. It's mostly a feeling of things crawling inside your skin, then super fuzzy warmth, a little confusion, and then a kind of euphoria. Then the drop (exhaustion, nausea, etc.). I don't manage it because the side effects from meds make my life hell and they don't stop them anyway. I have an atypical temporal lobe seizure disorder from multiple TBI's. No one can usually even tell I'm having them.

Thank you though, really. I'm okay

 

I found out that the tire I need is out of stock.
Upside I can get more done today.
Downside is that I can't really go anywhere
for a while.
So cue Monday part 3 this week.

 

@Cave Troll that really sucks, I'm sorry.

Meanwhile I feel like this is Monday part 5. Is it really only Wednesday?

 

@Trish sounds like Murphy is in full swing this week.

 

Usually, yes. For me anyway. I try to think of it as 'that's what makes life exciting!'

 

Which link are you using to show your pictures? If you use the direct link you wouldn't have that problem.

 

Wow Trish is back... been a long time stranger.

 

It HAS been a long time? Good to 'see' you!!! How are you?

 

Not bad, I still live in the crappy little Williamsburg. I did finally go back to school and finish my degree at EKU though. So how's things going with you?

 

That. Is. Awesome! Congrats! (the degree, not the Williamsburg). Not much of anything on my end. Pretty much the same in my stagnant little world. Gave up on writing for a few years, and now I'm back. I've missed it, much more than I realized. KY, right (or is my memory failing me)? Did you have to deal with all those fires that ripped through down there?

 

Yeah Williamsburg right across the state line from Jellico. We didn't really get bad fires where I am, but there was a lot of smoke from some fires up near London and Corbin Kentucky.

 

@Lewdog Yeah, I know where it is. My family is on White Oak, in Duff. Not far from Jellico and they had some fires up there on White Oak and Middlesboro Mtn. Maybe ya'll didn't hear about them because they weren't as widespread? I really only know because I was trying to sell my dad's house from up here (he passed away a little over a year ago) and we were 10 days from closing and I just knew it was going to take the house. It didn't, thankfully.

 

Wow so sorry to hear that about your dad. I'm glad you got lucky with the fires though! Well glad to see you back... I still from time to time see posts pop up where people read your story about the dirt road.

 

Thank you, and ... yeah. That was a shocker for me, lol

 

I'm having to sort out some really serious personal stuff right now. and don't have much time to do it.

It's not health-related, thank God. But still pretty depressing.

Don't know if it's good or bad that it's not interfering with my desire to write and produce the book. In fact, I'd like nothing better than to run away to my little imaginary writing world and forget about all the gunk I'm having to deal with now.

But I can't.

 

Gonna be sore and grumpy for a while I reckon, getting used to cycling again. It has been quite some time since I did so regularly.

 

I know it's a new prescription (eyeglasses) and it happens every time and the only thing to do is power through it until my brain rewires itself, but it's a really hot day and the distortion is making me dizzy and this just sucks.
