Greetings on a sleepy Wednesday! I really didn't want to get up, but also really wasn't sleeping, so I dragged myself out of bed. It was warm and I was snuggled in next to Jess, and that was tempting to stay for another hour. Technically, I could sleep til 7, but I've been getting up at 6. So I might rethink that one.

I'm a little less gloomy today, which is nice. Possibly I'm too sleepy to be particularly gloom and doom. Or possibly yesterday went a little less stressfully, and I've relaxed.

Dad decided not to get up yesterday, which is not ideal, but in the case of yesterday worked out well. His doctor came around 2:15. I was hoping he'd. be here during my lunch break so Jess wouldn't have to take it, but alas. He's more concerned about his low blood pressure and high heart rate, so we're adding a new pill into the list, and getting another chest xray to see how his lungs are doing. Otherwise, we're just watching him. No grippy sock vacation at this time.

After work, I raced around the beltway, as much as traffic would allow, and made it to my doctor's appointment. Diagnosis, fucked up shoulder and neck, unspecified. I need to have an MRI of the shoulder, and as long as the problem isn't the joint, I'm going to have physical therapy. She also gave me muscle relaxants and steroids to try to reduce the inflammation. It's pretty much what I expected, but it's annoying that I have to wait. I know there's not much in the way of MRIs for a couple of weeks, so I'm going to be waiting a while to get this scan, which means waiting a while for the therapy. Maybe I'll get lucky and someone will cancel a 7pm scan in the next few days.

Yesterday was my last day of being supervised on the phone. Today, I officially start my time as a solo agent. Which is why my schedule is changing a bit. It's going to be weird to just sign in and start taking calls without any chit chat. I think I can handle it, though I'm sure there's still going to be some things that mess with me. But there are resources and things I can use to puzzle out conundrums.

Our game tonight got cancelled, which is probably a good thing as I get used to the new schedule. We don't have any other games until Sunday. If we can find a showing of Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare, we might go to that on Friday, since it looks like all the Mummy screenings are early (boo). And Saturday, my work is holding an event at a swanky bowling alley, which I agreed to go to. With the shoulder, I probably won't be bowling much, but I wanted to actually meet some of the people I work with. Jess is going to come with me, so that should be fun. At the very least, we'll have some good food.

And now, I shall go forth and consider pants for the day. At least, since I don't have to go anywhere, I don't have to put on a bra today. That was annoying yesterday. Anyhow, everyone have an excellent hump day!
