I have to go to PT today. I should be resting because of this damn cold.

I have a really bad cold, I must have caught it at the con, there were about a zillion people there. I don't think it's covid. I had to drag myself out of the house to get groceries including cold pills, the only kind they had at the store was some kind I never heard of. They were also out of some things I wanted, including dental floss but I'm too tired to go to other stores. I hope they work. I have to do laundry too, I am currently taking a breather and cooking lunch. Apart from this cold I'm in a good mood.

I had so much fun at the My Little Pony convention! Lots of laughs, lots of partying, lots of food, looked at interesting swag. it was a great opportunity to get to know the two friends who invited me better and they are both super super nice and generous. Saw some amazing costumes. my friends gave me a couple of plushies. I swam 16 laps in the pool (first time I had my leg scar exposed in public which I was nervous about but nobody seemed to care or notice). First time I ever played Rock Band and I sang Freebird. I know that has fuck all to do with ponies but it was cool and I went over well. I'm super tired right now, did not sleep well over the weekend but it was worth it

Cranking up the Beatles because one of my neighbors put Whitney Houston on.

I had a fairly nice day yesterday except for a couple of fuckups with the buses. That was the second day in a row a bus refused to pick me up. Also the bus that wouldn't pick me up took a VERY long time to show up and one of the buses coming back from the library was extremely crowded.
I had tea and carrot cake at my favorite cafe and then hung out at the library for most of the afternoon and then got some groceries at Trader Joe. I have birria and tortillas and rice and tomatoes and I'm going to cook a burrito for lunch before I go to physical therapy this afternoon.

L. couldn't get together with me today because they are having major probs with their computer and have to hang around their house getting that taken care of but we had a nice long phone conversation just now. Later I'm going to go to my favorite cafe and then the library. I haven't hung out at the library in a long time.

Going back to the movies again today, this time to meet a different friend and watch Harold and Maude, a movie I love and haven't seen in a long time and never on the big screen. Some of the cemetery scenes in that movie were filmed at a cemetery right down the street from where I live.

Looking forward to meeting a friend of mine at the movies this afternoon, we're going to see the musical version of Little Shop of Horrors! I'm wearing my red jacket with the embroidered Chinese dragons on it because it's the closest thing I have to those sexy green dresses with the Chinese dragons on them that the chorus wears in that one scene.

Not much going on here now. I watched the Peter Jackson King Kong again yesterday, what a wild movie!
Anybody reading this, I would advise staying off TV tropes for a while, there's something wrong with it. The pages keep going blank or showing very suspicious looking pop ups which look like malware.

It has been two months since the solar paneling was put in and not only is my electric bill not any lower, it's slightly higher. And this is partly during the time period when my computer was not working so it can't have been due to higher power usages.

My leg hurts, had a physical therapy session yesterday. At least the damn scammer phone calls are less, (and only on my home phone, they NEVER call my cell) although I got one of my least favorite kind a little while ago, where they try to gaslight you into thinking you had a car accident when you didn't. It also occurs to me that since a lot of them don't speak English very well they might not understand me when I actually say "stop trying to gaslight me".
One of the gates into my apt bldg got busted late yesterday afternoon, no idea when it's going to get fixed.

I had the nicest day yesterday, L. and I went driving around looking at the beautiful local scenery, listening to great music and having terrific conversation and then they took me to this wonderful seafood restaurant I'd never been to before and treated me to a great dinner! I had pasta with clams, fish, mussels, calamari, shrimp and crab legs and we split a fried artichoke appetizer and I had some great wine with it and the waiter even threw in a free dessert! (triple chocolate cheesecake) Completely made up for how boring my weekend was.

Waiting to hear from L., I'd like to get together with them today even if the weather is not great right now. It was raining earlier and it looks like it might start again.
My leg is fucked up from last night. While I was fixing dinner somebody in the bldg had some sort of medical emergency and the fire alarm got pulled (they're not supposed to do that if there isn't a fire) so the power on the stove went out so I had to pull the stove away from the wall and unplug it and plug it back in again and I'm really not in good shape to do that.

Nothing going on here. I tried to text a friend but he didn't answer.

It's a beautiful day out today so I enjoyed going out to the Lakeshore farmer's market, Trader Joe; Arizmendi, etc. Some guys even complimented my Rolling Stones tank top. Got some groceries, I have al pastor so I'm gonna make burritos for dinner.

Just finished doing laundry. Had to deal with an absolute imbecile of a woman who kept blocking the dryer I was trying to get my stuff out of with either her body or the door, it was a very small laundry room and she couldn't process this at all. Then she starts muttering "Americanos" under her breath. Like the fact that she won't get out of my damn way is somehow political.

Had some Bridgerton Duke & Duchess tea. Did some grocery shopping this morning, saw a woman walking a really cute dog, talked to her a little bit, she was very friendly and the doggo licked me. I fixed a clogged toilet and a loose wire on my computer without having to bother anybody else about it, which I feel kind of proud of. Had a couple of great phone conversations with L. and another friend yesterday.

Had some orange blossom tea. I don't have much to do today, paid my rent yesterday. While I was waiting for them to give me my receipt one of the idiots said in this real snotty voice "are you finished?" like she really wanted me to leave. (I always want rent receipts because I'm not getting a repeat of when idiots tried to convince me I didn't pay my rent and I had to get my bank involved. Fortunately the bank guy backed me up and said those checks cleared.) I go "I'm waiting for my receipt." what a bitch.

Had some maple nut flavored tea. I have to go have physical therapy this afternoon.
