- Everybody was accusatory and unsatisfied this past week, and I was put on the defensive all day, every day. However, nothing was, ultimately, my fault, and I think I covered my ass admirably and with a minimum of rantiness and bad attitude. At least, I hope I did.
- My left knee was in agony most of last week as well, which meant that, despite hating to do it, I had to get up in the middle of the night and take something, so I have been coping with daytime medicine head. You may wonder how this winds up on my positive list. It's like the guy who hits himself with the hammer — it just feels so good when it stops. I'm not quite as sharp as I'd like, but I can walk.
- Lynnda won a Blingo prize: another $5 gift certificate from Amazon. This does affect me, because she signed up under my referral, which means I get one too, just for sitting at work and being put on the defensive. I couldn't afford to get anything with the one I had, but maybe now that I have two I can combine them at some point.
- I did my little wake-up-and-be-grateful every day, but I didn't have time to post it, because I had medicine head every morning and couldn't get motivated to move till it was time to get out the door and go do things to get paid. But that's almost like getting rest. And I did do it.
- Today is Saturday, and I'm supposedly going to get to go shopping and possibly to lunch. I takes my fun where I can gets it.
- Andy sent me, amongst other items, a penguin-shaped Zippo. I can just barely, if I hold it in two hands and push hard, work the thing with my sad-arsed arthritic hands, I don't smoke anymore, and I can't travel with it because lighters are hardly allowed on any public transportation anymore. He was probably happy to get rid of it. But I don't care, 'cos, hello, penguin; it's cute.
