- Changing back to Ativan = slightly lower dose = extra anxious today
+ Somewhat better executive function
- My car seems to maybe have thrown a wheel weight? It is kind of shuddering in high speeds but the tire pressure is fine
+ Had a really nice conversation with my dad while driving to school
* my dad was cutting her kibble in half with wire cutters while on the phone with me because she is old enough that she can now only chew a half piece of kibble at a time...my dad pretends to hate cats, then apparently cuts our cat's kibble up piece by piece for her at every meal like she's a little kid who can't cut up her own steak
* we also discussed why push reel mowers are currently so expensive
* doing house repair with parental figures (including a story about him and his dad repairing the roof of the lake house/shack that had caved in to the floor due to snow, and they were killing mosquitos by smacking them against the roof with hammers...my dad's dad was a severe alcoholic and sometimes domestically abusive asshole who died long before I was born, and while I knew my dad loved and missed his dad, I had literally never heard a positive story about my grandfather before
- I managed to be half an hour late to my first class of the semester (thankfully, a 4.5 hour block class, so that's only 1/9 of the class I missed) due to vaguely executive dysfunctiony stuff like "oh, I thought I would have enough gas, need to stop" and "oh, I thought the class was on the other side of the campus from where it was so I had to walk across campus after I got there 10 minutes late"
+ we just watched the cutest public health parody video on vaccinating your kids against cooties and also I am managing to mostly pay attention to lecture (obviously not this second) by knitting...I finally have the toe of this sock done, yay
- gender ickwiggles today because I only had the time to throw on a dress (which would have been fine last night?) and apparently my brain wanted butch clothes today and I didn't know until it was too late
+ plenty of water + sock knitting + my hair cut + my rainbow braces on my teeth + generally just feeling better than yesterday
