I am thinking of firing up the old journaling muscles but livejournal seems like it may have lost my account. That's why I backed it all up, at least.
Today I am crunched for time so I set a five minute timer to get out as many thoughts as possible.
My headaches have been bad lately. Very bad since my parents visited so stress is a factor. There have also been two hurricanes (Helene and now Milton) that seem to contribute. That is something to keep an eye on. I was thinking about going through my livejournal entries and logging all the times I complained about headaches. It's not definitive but it could be an interesting data point.
I am probably going to visit my sister this weekend. It is complicated. It will be good to see her but it would be nice if it didn't feel quite so urgent.
I am feeling pretty burnt mentally and physically. I do not know how to make September less of a trial. I am a little bitter at my parents visiting then and at the world for continuing to pile so much on my plate.
It's been a month since I plated Final Fantasy 7 Remake. I was really enjoying it, but I just haven't had the mental resources to restart it. I haven't really had the reserves to relax and so I cope in other generally less healthy ways. I drink beer instead of tea, I have to catch up on sleep instead of working out, I start new projects instead of finishing old ones. These are frustrating.
I have made progress, largely thanks to 10 mg of Adderall. The yard is in better shape than it ever has been at this time of year, but I can still see the potential for it to slip away and get overgrown, and it makes me deeply unhappy.
I would like to play Street Fighter and somehow to rest.
Headache:
Intensity: 3/10
Localization: Left forehead, center forehead, right forehead, left cheek
Treatment: 2 Ibuprofen last night
Weather: Hurricanes to the south but consistent here
Other factors: Extreme stress, poor sleep all week
Drinks yesterday: 2
