how i spent my Dr. MLK, Jr. Day (Observed)

today i woke up feeling okay but still in pain from my fall. i took pictures of the mud on my jacket and pants butt bc i don't want to bend to take pictures or post pictures of various parts of my body bruised up.
...
the mud is caked on there and on the jeans legs and arm warmers and shoes...wah wah wah

anyway, i am backtracking...group was annoying last week, but i handled myself well and didn't cry. i told another member that her 'i don't care' responses weren't positive, hah!, listen to me. i hung with j-48 and smoked a ba-lunt so some tobacco, but no cigarettes for 2 weeks and 3 days. i went home early-ish bc i had to do homework.

thursday i cleaned up a bit, every little bit counts, it's getting better and better...and then i napped bc i felt like it and sk3 was coming over after work. we drank champagne and hung out as previously noted. friday i walked with her to a closed coffee shop =( and then without coffee, they drove us over to the room she was trying to rent. she did really well but found out today that she didn't get it. she found 2 more places, 1 called back and i am going to keep my eyes open, i have seen 'room 4 rent' signs a lot so now i will get the numbers for her.

saturday i went to bed before 10pm and i recall this bc sk3 called me 3times and txted me 'u can't possibly be asleep' which i saw the next day. i had taken a muscle relaxer bc i wasn't feeling great from doing homework and not sitting properly all the time and then sunday i fell and realized that falling hurts a lot more than improper sitting. meh. i crafted a bit on sunday night bc i kept switching positions to try to get comfortable.

today i missed my free eye appointment =( it was for 9:30 and in my sleep i turned off my alarms and did not get up until a few hours after that and see above to see how i am feeling today. hahaha. i did mass homework. i got 100% on my last paper, i've been getting good grades, but this is the first 100% i've gotten. i think i get mad at the things i do wrong and then correct them. i think if i cut out the getting mad part, this would suit me well. i was team leader this week, so i did a powerpoint, i was going to add information, but we had enough slides so i just did the formatting and adding quotes and stuff. i think it's pretty okay. one more week of this class and we don't have bs discussion questions and participation, just time to work on our team and individual final projects. that's how i like it.

i made plans to hang with j48 tomorrow and sk3 might come over to her place, too. i hope i feel better after a long night's rest bc this is pretty lame right here.............

How is your back feeling

I'm glad that you were able to control your emotions in group. When I feel that people are being unkind to me I have a lot of trouble keeping a cool head. It's something that I should try to master at some point! Any tips would be helpful!

Where has J48 been living?

I'm so glad that you are so successful with your online classes! It seems like they've been great for you. Every post sounds more and more positive and you seem like you are managing your life really well! Hooray!

Congrats on not smoking1

thanks for asking, my back is feeling not so great. i took the last 2 darvocet today at 3pm and 8pm and between that i took 5mg flexiril and i am still up and alert, so i need it, i am going to take 5mg before bed.

i think this was like one of the first times i didn't cry, i cry a lot, especially confrontations, whether angry or just emotional. i am no expert, i think i just went in with the attitude, this does not have to hurt me and didn't let it. but it was expected, not unexpected. meh.

j48 lives in tigard, a suburb of portland. sk3 used to live in tigard with her ex, but now lives in beaverton, another suburb, with her mom and step dad who doesn't treat her well. sk3 is looking for a place =)

thanks, lady, i be tryin and we be jammin! lol
