Not a great day. I hope it picks up. Considerably.
One of those days where the giant self-slingshot you built was initially awesome and then had an unforeseen landing problem? Been there, brother. Been there.

Dang it.
My game went fairly well. As usual, I have a framework of an adventure and then play off the player's actions. I had a good time as the GM, something that's slowly becoming less frequent. I'm getting burned out, I can tell, and need to take a month or so off. After the next session, on March 9th, I'll tell folks we won't reconvene until late April. I hope that someone else will volunteer to run a game of some kind that's a pretty nebulous hope. No one else wants to run anything more than once or twice a year and I need to be on the other side of the game master's screen. Ah well, it'll work out.

TODAY IS BETTER DAY I am getting along. It is a relief and my father leads the way as he always did. Now I believe that our time limited to a short number of days. In those days we must pack a life with all the joys and sorrows; all the heartaches and triumphs; all the paths not taken and the journey that was traveled. Then we sleep.

I'm not a happy dude. You're all aware of my kvetching and whining about my never-ending and severe knee pain. So I had an appointment with my orthopedist today. I asked my son to get off work early so I could make it by 2:45 (we have to currently share his vehicle). I get there on time, I have my insurance cards in hand as well as my most recent list of prescriptions. They told me they had me down for Wednesday at 3. I know for a fact this is wrong because I wrote down the date on an index card while on the phone when they made the initial appointment. Then I added it to my phone's calendar. Of course, bringing this up would have served absolutely no purpose so I turned around and came home. Now I have to come up with a ride for Wednesday.

Well, I know what I'd like to recommend, but with your knee it probably isn't a great idea... I'll go ahead and flip one on your behalf.

Hiya. I feel fine except for the blasted knee. It's pretty intense and I haven't really even done more than walk from my bedroom to the kitchen and back. I'm finally going to get in to see my orthopedist (Yeah, I'm at the age where I'm collecting specialists now) on Thursday. I kind of dread what he might say, and that's a knee replacement. I can't have any surgery until my cardiologist says so, and that won't be until at least April.
Anyway, I whined all that to say, "Yeah, I'm actually doing well overall. Thanks!"
:D

A lens just popped out of the frames of my glasses and I can't get it to stay in. I'll have to take it to my optometrist's office tomorrow and have them fix it. In the meantime, I'm glad for my 32" monitor and the ridiculously large print on my new illuminated keyboard. I got it on sale, not for any sort of vision reason. That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

Honestly, not great today. Pretty crummy. I woke up and had to deal with some infuriating, soul-draining s%&% first thing in the morning. Normally, I can bounce back and get on with my day. For whatever reason, today I haven't been able to shake it off. It's 3:00 and I've wanted to break stuff since 7:00 AM.
I haven't broken any stuff though, which is good, I guess.
And yesterday my friend's daughter sent over more artwork inspired by one of my novels so that makes me happy. I think she's really talented!
So there we go. I guess things aren't all bad and even though I lost the better part of the day to useless rage-looping, I've still got the afternoon and evening to turn it around. And writing this mini-rant is helping me get there. Thanks all for indulging me.

So today I went to my optometrist's office to get my glasses repaired. Because of my increasing anxiety issues, I don't like driving anymore, whereas once it was just a joyful experience for me. Anyway, I got there, went in, and was there less than 10 minutes. I leave and go back to my son's vehicle (we share it) and realized not only had I left the keys in it but has left the engine running, as well.
I'm really bothered by this. My memory hiccups have become pretty noticeable to not only myself but my GF and a few others. Gettin' kinda worried.

Don't you switched a medicine recently? Could it be the reason? Or were those memory issues appearing prior to that?
Chronic pain also wrecks havoc with the nervous system... :/
