Long vent.....
I'm having one of those disconnected weekends. Started out in a decent enough mood yesterday morning, but then inertia set in big time. House is a mess, I'm lethargic, etc.
Played computer games until my mind was mush and my hand was achy. See, I had deleted them from my previous OS but when I got the OS updated, sure enough--there are those games. They are my ruin, I tell you, my RUIN!
But I don't seem ready to delete them. Ah, addiction.
Then, when I finally stopped playing yesterday afternoon, I got ready to go out for errands, including refilling my Adderall scrip, but then I couldn't find an adderall scrip to fill. Suddenly I was really confused--I couldn't remember if I'd had it and where I had put it or whether I'd already dropped it off at the pharmacy and forgotten to pick it up, which I don't think so, but my pharmacy closes at 5 pm on Saturdays and is closed on Sundays. Often, I'll bring the adderall to a drugstore pharmacy because of their hours, while the longer scrips I bring to the pharmacy I really like but has not such great hours, obviously. But I know I did not drop one off at the drugstore pharmacy this time.
Woke up today and read the paper, watching tennis on TV and felt so tired that I ended up going back to bed mid-day for four hours.
I really hate when I can't remember something important like my adderall scrip. I have no idea if I even got one from the pdoc last time-ie, did he give me only one scrip (which has now run out) or did he give me two to cover the time before the next appointment? Usually I get enough for the gap in time, but I can't remember if I did this time.
Things like this make me feel really out of it and distracted (which is also what happens without the adderall too!). It feels like I lost part of my brain---how can I not remember at all?
So today is another washout day. I should go out and get some provisions as only "bizarre combo" food remains in my cabinets and fridge.
I still have a ton of stuff to do, both for home and work. I told my boss I'd work on this thing over the weekend and I haven't. Now if I go in early in the morning and work on it, will my brain be in gear enough to do it? I guess I can load up on caffeine in the morning to compensate.
Plus, I've been lucky that the weather hasn't been hot this week, but I still need to decide on which company to have replace the old AC that is totally broken.
Plus a million other things. And the mess.
Not my best weekend. I know I'll be better tomorrow, and especially by Tuesday if I can get the Adderall scrip filled tomorrow.
