6/10/2023, Just Another Day, Folks

Writer: Shane ZellowShane Zellow
So. My car died again. Just as Cassie and I were leaving to go see Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3. I thought we solved the power drain issue with the car so I just don't know anymore. And going back to the dealership is expensive. I'm so sick and tired of car trouble. Movie was good.

TWO THINGS I AM GRATEFUL FOR (SPECIFIC)

1. I am grateful for my last Numenera player. In spite of how limited her out-of-game availability is we have managed to create her character: a Stealthy Glaive who Focuses Mind Over Matter with a background as a guardian of a Cypher Monastery. Super psyched.

I am grateful for my old friend Nik/Nikki, who I've scheduled a phone call with tomorrow. They were the first friend I made at college owing to a countercultural bent and love of getting fucking CRONK on Friday nights. The parties were off the hook and regularly AWFUL.

ONE THING THAT WENT WELL DURING THE DAY

Guardians 3 was really nice. Not sure if it's because I had more than a month to sit with the middling reviews but I really enjoyed it. It was trying to accomplish a lot, like holy shit. But by the time the credits rolled, I felt satisfied with where everything landed.

ONE ABSOLUTELY CRITICAL ACTION ITEM FOR THE DAY

I'm out of anti-depressants so I should probably call my provider and get a refill. Normally, my supply lasts until my next meeting with my psychiatrist but I'm not seeing him until <checks bullet journal> next Monday and my pills run out <checks medicine cabinet> tomorrow.

WHATEVER IS ON MY MIND

I feel bad about missing so many blogs this past week but my anxiety was through the roof. When I get really stressed I have trouble breathing (a symptom that goes all the way back to 6th grade but I didn't guess I had anxiety until I was 26 years old) and that lasted 4 days last week.

I'll say, I feel bad but I'm not beating myself up. Just regretful that the circumstances were the way they were. if anyone has any job leads, throw them my way. The only thing that seemed to work was alternate nostril breathing. Maybe next week I should talk to my psychiatrist about my anxiety getting worse.

All best,
Shane Zellow
