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.

Hi Noa. My weekend is less than organized too. Man was I irritable. I haven't done any of the necessary laundry, bills (yipes it's the 6th), nor picked up my own Rx, but I did manage to paint my nails. Priorities, dear. :-) I threw my remaining energy into planting. Sooo annoying, it takes so much effort to get anything to grow here, and my last 3 years of effort were recently trampled by the housepainters. I docked their pay, but I don't think it was enough. Spent the entire weekend either in line at the home store or mucking around in the dirt and manure (yes manure). My whole body aches from hacking out the trampled plants (bitterly, angrily removing them) and weeds and hacking holes in the hard clay soil. I managed to plant eleven 1-gallon plants, but it hardly looks like anything. Now must water them daily or they'll die (voice of experience here). Have 4 plants left, I couldn't face starting another bed, now I hope those last till next weekend.
that's my weekend rant. Oh, and my car stero quit working, so my irritation is increased by having no tunes in the car.
This is the end of the thread.
