Good morning!
I am barely awake today. I didn't get to spend time on the couch waking up before I burst out the door this morning. If you haven't guessed, that means I overslept. And then Kupo decided it would be a lot of fun to keep chasing me to the front door. Which was absolutely adorable and I love him, but of course, that meant I couldn't walk out the door without fear of him bolting out of the apartment. As a result, I was a little bit late to work today.
Over the weekend, we got the internet hooked up at the house. It appears to be extremely fast. We went with fiber, so I am pumped to see what we actually get out of the service. Without all of our devices hooked up, we had some pretty nice speeds. I hear the service with this provider is a lot better than with Cox, and we have been okay with our service with Cox for a while.
I am trying to get settled into my day at work so I can actually be productive. I have been so distracted with house related things that I haven't really been too focused on things that need to get done. I feel like a bit of an asshole because of it. I want today to be filled with coffee, music, and productivity.
I have also had this incessant pain in my hip region that actually has me a bit concerned. Depending on how I end up feeling by the end of the day today, I may be heading in to the doctor tomorrow after work. I am worried that this is an issue much larger than I am prepared to deal with right now. :( Of course, I am fully aware that I tend to get into my head and freak myself out for no reason. It's kind of my specialty. But for seriousness, I am legit worried about this pain. It's been nonstop for over a week and at one point, it seemed to be getting better, and then it randomly went back to the way it was feeling before it started getting better. The good news is that it hasn't become worse than it was when I first noticed it. It just isn't getting better. I guess I need to complain about it because I am really worried.
I don't know why I do that to myself. It's not like I can control whatever the outcome is going to be end up being with this situation. So even if I were dying, that would be that. I would be dying. But I suppose my fear isn't that I am dying. What I am actually worried about is that I actually have some issue that inhibits me in some way and negatively impacts my quality of life. And what's worse is that I would blame myself for it because I would feel like there was something I could have done to prevent it from happening like this. Stupid bodies.
I don't know if I mentioned it before, but I beat Graveyard Keeper. Now I am not sure how to handle my life. I started playing Songbird Symphony and well... The game is adorable and I am enjoying a lot about it (despite it being a little bit buggy). My biggest issue with it though is that the "boss fights" are rhythm games. And the rhythm part would be fine except that there is way too much shit flying on the screen and being distracting that I can't keep up with the rhythm component. Also, they change up the way you are supposed to play along at random, and sometimes it takes a minute to adjust to the new rules. The problem isn't that it is challenging, the problem is that it goes straight to Expert level challenging without giving one the option. That said, the good thing about it is that it doesn't seem dependent on you doing well in order to get past the boss fights. They are basically set up like mini games that you can do over and over as challenges. So while you HAVE to get through them at least once in order to progress the story, how well you do does not impact your ability to move forward.
I'm trying not to think about it, but I am really worried about this pain in my body right now. I'm frustrated and sad and unsure how I should handle it. UGH! Anyway, that's where I am right now.
Over the weekend I attempted to clean the cabinets and drawers at the house. I fucking HATE contact paper with a passion you can even dream of. Fuck everything about contact paper. The worst part is that the state of the cabinets and drawers is pretty fucking nasty. Like, I am pretty sure the sellers were not keeping things in the cupboards with the surfaces being this god damn gross. So what I imagine happened is that someone STARTED to remove all of the contact paper, and then fucking gave up part way through. And they gave up at the point where it is the most difficult. My fucking hands and fingers are so pissed. And it takes about an hour per shelf/drawer to get all of the nasty adhesive off. The worst part is that I went out and purchased some Goo Gone (and adhesive remover), and a scraper. And while that shit works better than the sponge I was using, umm... IT STILL TOOK ME A MILLION YEARS TO DO ONE CABINET!! GAW!!! Fuck so much about contact paper!
This week we get our coffee table, a lawn mower, and I think some other stuff too, but I can't remember what. We purchased a new dishwasher as well, but that will get to the house next week.
Fuck I am so tired. I can't wait to be out of the apartment.
Alright, I suppose it is time to hop in to actual work.
Happy fucking Monday! Pray for me! >.<
