Do you remember the little boy on the tricycle and when asked, "What are you waiting for?" he said, "I don't know, something amazing!!!" Don't quote me, but that's how it feels like my life is. What did I do today? This is what I wrote in my "tracking" note book because I have been getting annoyed with trying to maintain everything and check off which medications I took, why I take them, etc. So I simplified it and I felt accomplished because instead of not having anything crossed, checked, or marked according to whatever site conveniently provided these charts, I had found satisfaction in even my menial tasks. Those minuscule moments are what help me keep going. I may be mindless 99% of the time, but I suppose that's good enough for now. As for today, I didn't do anything. I went to re-piece my new vacuum, but I noticed on my way into the kitchen, there were strange black lumps on the floor. I thought it was dog hair until I picked it up and realized it was kind of like a synthetic Brillo. What does this mean, you wonder? ED.
She deters the good things that I manage to incorporate into my life with great struggle and yet I keep her around. I've always been the type of person who can't say no to anything, even if it means I get the short end of the stick. It's happened so many times, you'd think I would know better. But I don't. Or I do but I just let it slide. I've become institutionalized. I believe strength comes from every second your mind takes the initiative and you go on autopilot unwillingly. Sometimes I recognize this in myself, but most of the time I deny it. I feel weak and confused. And right now I feel lonely. It feels like the days I need someone, they're avoiding me. Or the days I want to be left alone, I'm not. Time passes too slowly when you want it to go faster, etc.
Tomorrow I hope I'll find the energy to find the filter. If not, what I was dreading *having to return it* then back to Wal-Mart it goes. It's not a really big deal, but it's just such a pain. It was a pain carrying it out to my car, up the stairs into my apartment, and putting it together. Because no easy setup is ever easy enough for me. For some reason, I always get the piece of **** out of the decent pile. Now I'm going to have to repackage it, find the receipt, drive it back, drag it back inside, hopefully find another one available, wait in line, blah, blah, blah. ;;sigh.
I'm lonely.
Stupid cat.
