Last week
After Friday I stayed home as much as I could. I stayed off the net, other than checking for some emails I was expecting. Didn't go out until Wednesday. Not been feeling happy, not been feeling particularly sane.
Wednesday
I had to go to uni this day, so I planned to do other things on the way. Only one problem, my car wouldn't start. I phoned the NMRA and the repair guy came out and got it going again (I think mostly, the battery was flat). But he also noticed all the smoke due to the cracked head, pointed out the obvious (too much smoke + too little power when only 3 cylinders going) and also said that if I wasn't careful, I'd be pulled over by the RTA and have a defect notice placed on the car, and also be fined $200!
Just what I was worried about, and it seems that lack of water leaking is no indication one way or another. He advised me not to drive it on the road. But I had no option, and ten minutes later I drove past his parked car, while he was filling out forms. Hmmm.
I got away, and did all the tasks except get to the uni Honours Seminars (which was why I was going there in the first place). Oh well. But, I got: dog bones for Pegasus; my license renewed; bought pet food; paid some bills; and did a "library run". I also finally got through to a local health service to get an appointment with a dietician; and got through to my endocrinologist's secretary. I needed a referral so I got an appointment with my GP on Friday.
Didn't get home until 10pm, as I was in the Huxley Library doing web searches.
Thursday
Drove to Teralba and caught the train into town. I had one appointment for tarot readings - the first in six weeks. Liz suggested that I drop back to fortnightly. I've agreed for now, but lack the resources right now to advertise.
But I also had a big sinus headache for most of the day. I felt "shaky" and ready to drop. In fact I'm glad I only had one reading. Kept taking generic aspirin for it, and went to bed early. Not before playing with DOGA - a 3D graphics program. I made models of the spaceships in "Future Imperfect". Very pleased with that.
