I took yesterday's Zoloft around 1:00, and I took today's right when I got up. Barring unexpected side effects, I'm going to keep taking it in the mornings.
The headache is gone now, thank goodness. I got up a little after 10:00, so I guess I got another three hours of sleep, more or less.
Cordelia did a movie night with her friends last night, so Scott and I had the house to ourselves. Scott suggested dinner out. I had a headache with nausea, so I asked for something mild. We ended up with carryout from Wendy’s. I think that that meal did more to kill the headache than any of the medications I took yesterday. It’s just frustrating because I don’t see what’s so magic about that meal as opposed to the other things I ate yesterday.
We finally got around to watching a Netflix DVD that we’d had for a while, so that was nice.
Scott mentioned an app he wanted me to be sure to download, but, of course, since he didn’t write it down, I can’t remember the name. I’m trying to decide if it’s worth texting him to ask or if I’m just going to wait until he gets home.
I wrote a bit more than 400 words yesterday. I was hoping for more, but 400 is a lot better than none. With luck, I can manage a good bit more today. I know where I want the story to end up, but I’m not actually sure how to get there right now. I also worry that the ending I have in mind will be too open to be pleasing.
I’m drinking some raspberry zinger tea right now as part of my effort to clear out the teas that we have very small amounts of that are taking up a disproportionate amount of space. It’s a little too acidic for me in a way that lingers for minutes after a sip. I can’t remember if I’ve tried this one before or not. We had a never opened sample bag with three teabags in it. It might be that I never tried it, but it might also be that I remembered trying it and not liking it much. I’m pretty sure I bought the samples so that Cordelia could try them. Except that that doesn’t make sense because they were mostly zingers, and Cordelia decidedly does not like hibiscus. If I bought these before we figured that out, they’re at least five years old.
I’ve got three library DVDs that I’d like to watch today. I think I’m giving priority to the lecture series (two DVDs totaling six hours left) because I can write while it’s on because it’s 80% a guy standing there talking. The other DVD is subtitled, so I’ll have to give it my eyeballs. Both can be renewed, so that’s not a factor. I’ve got two movies and another lecture series waiting for me to pick them up from the library, and we’re watching the library copy of Star Wars: Rebels season 2 as a family. That has another week and can’t be renewed, so we need to work on finishing that as quickly as we can. I think we have nine episodes left plus the extras if we decide to watch those. I would like to, but… I don’t know if we’ll have time.
As far as library books go, everything I haven’t finished can be renewed. I’d like to finish some of them by tomorrow, but I don’t know if I will. The times when I have mental focus enough for reading, I’m mostly writing instead.
