Ho-hum days
Nov. 12th, 2016 11:19 am I have made a habit of posting updates on on near Friday. But for the most part, my anxiety has been under control. I've only had depressive moments at the end of the day when my Synthroid begins to wear off, and I'm at that special time of year where I'm not sure if I'm flaring or if it's just the cold weather. Life is as normal as it has been for the past two years.
I'm in another period of waiting, and there's little I can do about it. I can finish up my college assignments, but whether I can continue or not depends on whether my student loans get discharged. I'll know that in a few more months. For now, I just need to finish up my assignments and get the best possible grades for this semester.
The post-election angst is nearly over for me. I am by no means happy Trump won, but I think I've lost all the sleep I'm going to lose over it until he actually takes office. The Republican House and Senate leadership has told him that some of his more extreme ideas are simply not possible or feasible. I still worry about what his followers will do.
At least I've only been called "faggot" so far, and I don't think the person knew me. I think it was just a reaction to the color of my scooter, and the assumption that a male-bodied person was riding it. It'd be hard to tell my gender in the dark from behind. I don't think it was targeted at me specifically, but then I don't know. I'm not going to worry about a slur shouted by someone in a passing car too much.
There is the orthopedist appointment next Friday, but I hope I can stop wearing the "short arm fracture brace" as the documentation calls it by then. Maybe I'll need an MRA, maybe not.
Also, last day before making some rather large dietary changes.
