goofing off..as usual
I should be working on my NaNoWriMo story but here I am, goofing off cuz I can't get motivated. I'm 1700 words behind today's goal, which isn't bad. I'm really going to try and hit the required 10k words before I go to bed tonight. Once you get behind, its REALLY hard to catch up. I have ideas, I just have no motivation to write these days. This will probably be the last year I do this challenge. It always takes a lot out of me and for what? Other than the respect of my peers, there's no other real reason to write 50K words in 30 days. If properly inspired, I can write 50K words in a month any time. I know because I've done it. This will be my 10th year in a row doing it so it would be nice to go out with a bang, as it were.
Today was Take your Kid to Work day and so my son came to work with me. It was my busiest day and he helped me for the first half of it, but after lunch he was DONE. So I let him sit and play on his phone while I finished things up at the last building of the day. He was good tho. But he didn't like it LOL. Anytime anyone asked him about it, he said "It was BAD." LOL. Kids say the darndest things! haha. It was the next thing to manual labor, so he said. Ummm I don't know if I'd go that far LOL. All I do know is that he'll sleep good tonight.
I need to find a new family doctor that's closer to me. I love my current doc but she's too far away. It was fine for when I worked nights and had my days free to go see her, but now my days are pretty much full, so even if I managed to get an appt before or after work, its still a long way to drive. With my luck I'd get stuck in traffic or something an then I'd be screwed. My aunt said to call her Doc and see if she's taking new patients so I'll do that tomorrow. Her office is just down the street from me. I'm out of my Thyroid meds and so I need a refill. My doc is going away next week and I couldn't get in to see her this week so I'm going to have to just go to the clinic over by me and get a doc to give me a refill there. I really hate that. Having to explain why I take this medication, how long I've been taking it for, blah blah. JUST GIVE ME THE DAMN DRUGS. It's not like I'm asking for Oxycodone for God's sake. It's thyroid medication that I've been taking since I was a baby. At least at this clinic over here, I've been there before so it's on record that I take this medication. It should be pretty straightforward. Or at least I hope so. Being out of meds sucks. It's not the first time I've been without them for any length of time. I know, I'm bad. But as I said, it's really hard to get an appointment now. The good thing is that once I start taking my medication again, I bounce back really fast. Like..I could be feeling like crap now, but if I got my drugs tomorrow, I'd be back to my usual chipper self by Monday. Now I'm tired, cold, not much appetite, no energy, in a bit of a depression. I haven't wanted to play my drums in weeks.
So hopefully I can get into see someone in the next few days. I'm tired of feeling like crap. The idea of having to jump through hoops to get a refill is what has made me not go sooner. I don't have time to sit in a doctors office lobby for 1-2 hours for what will take all of 5-10 min to get the prescription.
Oh well. I'm gonna see about getting at some more words written before I go to bed. I'm super tired. G'night all!
