IT's 5am, so it must be time for me to be vertical. Technically, I don't have to be up this early, but it's the one time I can get up and have the house be quiet. Even Dad doesn't normally wake up for at least an hour. (Having said that, I'm sure I'll hear him soon.). But generally, it's a bit of a quiet time to enjoy the stillness for fifty minutes of so.
Not a whole lot going on today. I'm going to prep a turkey breast for Jess to throw in at like 2:30pm, so it'll be pretty much ready by the time I finish work. Given a choice, I like to eat earlier, since my nighttime pill doesn't do that well with high fat content. I can, I just usually ad an anti-anxiety pill to the mix. Like, while we're in Philly, we'll be eating a bit later, so I'll take the anti-anxiety after dinner, and then take the ambien when we're ready to sleep, and it should work.
Yesterday was a tough day. Dad wasn't being great at keeping his voice down, and then he started sliding forward in the chair. Jess tried to get him to use the sit/stand for the urinal, and he couldn't get up. by the time I came out, he was way down in the chair, and he had a bitch of a time getting up. Required more support than usual. I mean, I know we're all going to have bad days. But stilll. With this in mind, I made the decision that we were going out to eat.
After some consideration, we decided to go to Absolute Thai and Sushi. It's a little restaurant in a strip mall. We'd ordered from there before, and liked it. I will say, in person it's fucking amazing. We started out with Chicken Satay with the best peanut sauce I've ever had. Seriously, so tasty. I was dipping my shrimp in it, just to get a little more.
I had Pad Thai with shrimp, and it was so so good and a huge portion. I have some noodles to nom today. Not enough for a meal, but it'll be a bie snack. Jess got the Massaman curry, which they really enjoyed. Then, for dessert, I insisted on the sticky rice with mango, even though I was super-full. It was lovely, with ripe mango and delicious coconut cream.
It was nice to get out, since I think it was our first time out in a couple of weeks.
Today, I shall pay some bills, and prepare for a whole bunch or role playing as patients and call-takers. Exhausting, but I shall deal.
My expensive chair is supposed to come on Friday! So, I know what I'll be doing on Saturday! Or, possibly Friday after work. We'll see. I kind of want to do it Friday, so I can have it to sit in for Friday night game.
I also have a new, more noise cancelling headset. We'll see how it works, but hopefully, it'll help drown out some of the background noise. That comes today at some time.
Okay, I'm going to go forth and have some more coffee. I'm especialy sleepy this morning. Everyone have an awesome Thursday!
