My cough is finally starting to go away now and have been taking antibiotics. I rescheduled the free happy hour at McFadden's to this weekend however I think I should just give it to someone else because I really don't think I should be drinking.
It was nice to watch the inauguration on TV today, it would of probably been even cooler to be there but I don't think it would of been worth it for me to be out there in the cold weather. I am not good at winter. I really enjoyed Obama's speech though and the other speeches, especially the poet, I forgot her name. I was also surprised that they had that strong prayer too but it was nice to listen to.
I tried to go get Nicola from the metro since she was flying back in today but my car battery is dead I think. My friend said AAA will replace the battery for just the charge of the battery. I think I will wait till my day off Friday to deal with that though. That way I can take it to the dealer and they can give me a ride home if needed. Cars are irritating. I thought Hondas were not supposed to be reliable.
I tried not to focus on my anxiety today and focus on the TV and getting some chores done, still finishing up laundry stuff and have been doing a bit of ironing. I really don't know what happened to me, I was doing great over the summer and stuff. I guess I just get nervous and feel like I am alone here but I have to keep reminding myself that I have a few friends nearby just in case.
Yesterday I hung out with George and we went to the store and I bought a ceiling fan for the living room. I was crying a lot though and we went to Potbelly's and he got me some soup. He told me he'd come over tonight but I'm sure he's not going to now since I was crying a lot yesterday. He thinks I am taking it out on him but I'm not trying to, I just have not been feeling myself lately. I don't know why. I have been trying to figure out if it is just me or him that makes me feel anxious and upset. I try to explain to him but I don't think he understands me. He thinks I can just make a choice to change things but it isn't that simple. I have a lot going on inside of me and he can't understand that. I am trying to relax, I really am. I have a lot of chores and stuff to do in my condo I have just been having a tough time being alone. At least the TV helps somewhat.
Tomorrow and Thursday is back to work.
