Good News and Bad News, of a small "Agh, today" variety
The good news is this is only the second day this semester I have Totally Failed to go to class. Last semester I'm pretty sure I was up to 3 or 4 absences by now, and now I have a good chance of ending the semester with two absences in each of two classes and three absences in the last one.
On the other hand, aaaaaaaagh, not going to class! Both because my brain is fried and smushed (jetlag + getting back into the semester + anxiety about the stuff I have to do + not taking my medicine at a normal time because jetlag + laziness) and because I actually really like my classes and feel like I'm missing something important when I'm not there. Also, I am sad and discombobulated, but feel well enough that I feel like I shouldn't be as lacking in executive function as I am today. I meant to skip my first class and go to the others, but I overslept by three hours and and and it is 3 pm and I have just now gathered the brains to make food and have not yet gathered the brains to hydrate, dress myself, or do anything other than bash my head against "Homestuck" because I know there are people who like it. (I already knew I didn't like it; why the heck did I try again?)
I need to text my husband that I didn't manage school today, and I am wishing that I had a wide-ranging local community to either outsource executive function to or at least to keep me company while I flail.
ETA to add a ta-da! list
-ramen made and eaten for lunch
-got dressed
-took inhalers
-brushed hair
-filled a glass with water
