CynthiaWVirginia -> RE: I Admit It I........ (8/1/2016 2:31:55 PM)

I admit that I should have gotten myself out of this house to pay some bills two hours ago, but I managed to avoid it. I want to leave my house and be around other people to the same degree that I want to be hit in the face with a hammer. I can have weeks like this (it's better than having full blown agoraphobia in the driver's seat again, so I'm trying to feel grateful that it's limited). I admit that reading some MSN news on this computer about an asteroid going to hit the earth around 2080 and like...wipe everyone off the planet (okay, that's how it sounded to me and I'll admit that I watch way too many sci-fi disaster movies)...anyway, this did NOT help. I won't even be alive in 2080whatever, but still I was talking at the screen telling them to shoot it down NOW, lol. Seeing that big dinosaur footprint in the news, from a dinosaur I'd never heard of before was rather cool. I still hate reading or watching the news (most of the time it should be called Bad News instead of just News.) Facebook's incessant links to puppies and kittens and all kinds of terrible cuteness...sounds like a great idea if I want to wash all the bad news out of my head. I'm still waiting to see if I managed to kill all the bedbugs that came over from mom's apartment to my house. I have a cluster of bites at my right ankle so I'll re-dust with DE just in case. Bugs love to bite me. I'll be bitten even when nobody else is. I've even had baby spiders hatch, drop down on one of my limbs and bite for no reason other than meanness. Anyway, we have too many spiders this year and my leg is directly under the ceiling light in my bedroom. My old chair in the living room used to be directly under the ceiling light, and baby spiders used to drop down on me en masse, so I know it's possible. We've already re-dusted the minivan over this. Later today this chair is going to get dusted again (I even tipped it upside down last time and used a house painting type paint brush to thickly coat even the underside, including every nook, crease, and cranny), and so is the couch. I admit that mom keeps sending stuff home with me and I think there are bugs taking rides, again and again and again. It could be just my imagination though. All I have to do is think about certain bugs and it makes me itch. (How Monk feels about germs is how I feel about certain bugs.) I admit that as soon as I knew mom had them and needed my help and I'd be exposed to them...I alerted all my bottoms, the next door neighbor, and the hostess of the play party group I attend that I'll be benching myself until this is not a possible issue anymore. So far, so good. Mom has gone weeks without being bitten (after I dusted her apartment within an inch of it's life, lol). I admit that several screens of mine have been ripped by cats and that I don't know how to repair them. Mosquitoes are getting in and are having my blood for lunch. Also, the last batch of imidacloprid I bought for the cats isn't working very well (used it for the past two months and I'm astonished to be bitten by fleas). One landed on me last night while I was watching something on Netflix and I was WTF??? Yes, I caught it and killed it and then started taking a flea comb to the cats. I saw an incredible amount of fleas. I've used Revolution and Advantage two weeks apart in a single month and seeing lots of fleas anyway was a jaw dropping moment. I used the plastic flea comb so much that I wrecked some of the teeth. I wish I had a decent, squared off teeth, flea or nit comb like I used to have years ago. Can't find another like it anywhere. I admit I've been on Atkins for three straight weeks to help the swelling in my leg. It usually works but this year it's not. I also managed to see my doctor and managed to forget to tell her that I have an ear infection AND that my left foot has a problem. It swelled up a little and three toes are mostly numb. WTF? It's been a week and I've been elevating it and babying it and still it's numb. If I had a clot there I think I'd be dead by now, so it must be something goofy, like...carpal tunnel of the ankle or something like that, lol. What will my body think up next... (shakes head) I admit that my Dragon Mania Legends game is calling to me. Really. It just made the computer chime and some little bar in the lower right corner popped out with an egg announcement. Ah, my "happy thoughts". Just found them again. I hope everyone has a good day, or at least...one that's not as bad as you expected it to be.
