How are you doing? - Kiwi Farms Wellness Check

No need to. Your precipitous departure is a pretty good "fuck you" as it is. 👍

Saw spinal surgeon this morning. Went over MRI imaging. Got a disk that sometimes lightly touches the nerve on the right side. Result - when that happens, part of the right leg experiences some discomfort and weakness. Doesn't last long, hopefully will go away. Surgery not indicated, presently at most an epidural injection. Was offered one but not bad enough yet to warrant it. Know I can always come back if needed. But if it comes to surgery would rather have another spinal fusion, laminectomies don't seem to work for me.

On the way home went to Costco. Today is 16 August. Costco is already putting Christmas stuff out. At this rate believe one day Christmas stuff will be available all year long. Jesus.
Yours is doing Christmas already? Hot damn! I've noticed Halloween stuff has been put out since around the top of August and I thought that was too early.
 
Issues with the same family member.
It's like pounding head on a stone.

Other family member makes me evil incarnate.
I know one day though the end will be fucking tragic and there is nothing I can do.
Just wanted to vent.
Feels a little bit better.
 
:( feeling pretty bummed out. After 19 years, I had to say goodbye to my senior kitty a few days ago. I miss him terribly and the house feels too quiet without him. I also feel bad for my other cat, who seems anxious and confused. He keeps looking for his brother and gets separation anxiety when my husband and I leave the house.
 
Bored as hell, that's the entire reason why I'm here. Been spending the whole day playing 2 games back and forth and decided it was time to do something worse. Spent most of my days sleeping in the past couple weeks since I only work on and off, I want to try to get back on track though, having bad sleep sucks ass. Makes everything worse.

Slight side complaint; delivery dude slapped a pickup notice on the door without even knocking or ringing the doorbell, everyone in my house was awake but he parked a ways away for some reason too so we didn't notice. One of my biggest pet peeves right there, don't get why some of them don't at least knock.

Sometimes they don't even try to deliver, they just put the note and leave so they'll do their route faster.
 
Feeling depressed, or rather like my soul is empty/dead. Wishing I had any actual humans to hang out with. Anything events/groups I could try going to are either an hour away or on the one evening of the week I have a recurring plan.

My environment is also not helping. I want to one day live in a house that's not either messy and cluttered, has things that are broken, etc. It's like I don't even have space to work on crafts, something that used to be one of my hobbies.
 
My floor's fire alarm went off like an hour ago, everyone came out to the hallway, but turns out nothing's really happening, so we all went back into our respective apartments.

It's been going off for a few seconds every 5 or so minutes since.
It's 1 AM here. I'm not going to sleep any time soon regardless, but there's babies in some of these apartments. Fun night for the parents.
 
I'm on a roll with those oddly entertaining dreams lately. Don't ask it to make sense because well, dream. Last night I was watching (or was I in it?) Titanic. Except it was a musical. It was the scene where Jack and Rose are in the water. Jack had Emma Watson's face horrendously CGIed onto Leo's, we're talking Tommy Wiseau's abs in the Neighbors bad. She started singing something about love or death or whatever. Rose reached over while Emma Watson was belting her autotuned heart out and put her hand on Emma's face and just...pushed her down into the water. Just stop singing, Emma.

That earned a forceful breath out my nose when I woke up.

Finally back in the house and I've noticed that I've felt exhausted. Had no energy all throughout yesterday after two monsters and a coffee and could barely respond to anything. I found this rather odd but then I noticed that everytime I went into my room that I would start coughing and my grandmother had begun trashing the house since I left. That's when I realized a large part of why my head wasn't screwed on right throughout the year was how utterly dusted everything in my room was.
Now, I've begun cleaning the place and I've let it air out and I'm already noticing a difference. Ill devote the next day to some much delayed spring cleaning and turning the house back into a mark of pride for myself. I'll be out of my hole far sooner than most would suspect. This past month was the last echoes of a downturn I've felt since the beginning of last year and playing cards with a beautiful woman turned out to be the happiest I had been in a long time even if it ended rather badly. I also had to say goodbye to a friend moving away as well. He's fine and going to do something he's long loved for himself. Remember, that we've already made it. The world simply hasn't realized it yet.
 
Pretty sure my autoimmune problem is now attacking my gums. Over the past two weeks they've been swollen as fuck. It's hard to eat anything and it's almost impossible to get comfortable when I go to sleep. I've gotten a total of about six hours of sleep in the past four days. It seems way too sudden for it to be gum disease or anything like that. I'm still going to the dentist next week to see if it is. At least they're not bleeding when I brush, so that's a positive I guess.

I've read and heard that gum issues can be related to vitamin deficiency. Scurvy tends to hit the gums early on, I think.
I'd go to the dentist, of course, but wonder if you're lacking vitamin C or something.

Good theory, but I eat plenty of fruits. So unless I'm somehow not metabolizing vitamin C, that's pretty unlikely.
