Except, I guess not. (Subject from the Bo Burnham song.) That was not a wanted announcement on an otherwise chill Sunday.

Yesterday, we got up early and went down to the farmer's market. It wasn't bad in when we got there, but towards the end of the trip, it was getting very warm. Jess kindly agreed to get up early and come with, because they love me. I was grateful for it, as we did some serious shopping. We got meat for the week, and some fruit and veggies. I also picked up some bread and cheese and a little thing of milk from the dairy. It's not cheap, and I definitely can't do it every week, but when I can I will, because it tastes so much better.

My beef "share" is almost done dry aging, and soon I will get the link to purchase it. I'm assuming that next weekend, we're going to be driving out to get it. It's at a little farm out near Frederick. They're a woman-owned farm, which is kind of cool. I like supporting small business. I also like the idea of dry aged beef. This is going to be so tender and tasty. It's dry aging for about 20 days, which is pretty good. Morton's steakhouse only does around 26 days, so it should be prime.

I had taken my sister to do laundry and was scrolling the internet when I saw that Biden had dropped out of the race. Well, shit. It scares the hell out of me. I immediately made my passport appointment, just in case.

I say just in case, but I have no fucking clue what I'll do if the orange asshole wins. With Dad, we're kind of stuck. But if things start to go south, we're going to have to run. I'm not going to risk Jess' well being. With a little bit of luck, all of this will be a moot point. Kamala will win, and maybe take Wes Moore as her VP and the assholes will be held off a little longer.

Thankfully, after the announcement, we had game. It took a few minutes to really get into it, but once it got started, it was a lot of fun. It helped to ease up the panic I was feeling, and got me back to baseline.

Two weeks on Vyvanse, and I never want to go off it. I don't know that it's doing much for my attentiveness. I might need a slightly higher dose for that. But it's smoothed out my anxiety and my tendency to get easily overstimulated and irritable, and that's worth a lot to me. I've been checking my blood pressure, and it hasn't gone up, so it doesn't seem to be having any adverse effects.

I'm expecting today to be super busy at work. Definitely a 60 call kind of day. Hopefully most of the patients will be nice.

And now, I shall go forth and get myself together for work. Everyone have an amazing Monday!
