Covid 2

I think I was in elementary school the last time I had a sore throat this bad. Every time I cough, it feels like my spine is going to snap in half or my brain is going to smash through my skull. There is a slight tightness in my chest. My breathing is fine, but I can see how this could be deadly for someone who has health issues.

My vision is especially weak right now, and I feel sleepiness, though I spent the last two days in bed sleeping. Tylenol took away the headache, and the dizziness seems to have mostly subsided.

I probably caught it when I shopped at Kroger Monday. I hope no one gets sick because of me.

Covid

Well, I’m Covid positive.

Yes, I’m sick. No, I’m not dying.

Chicken Pen

Fred and I helped Dad again. I think now we just need to get the cover on it.

Mower of Divinity

God did something right when He gave us these lawnmowers with mulch bags on ’em. Ain’t no one gotta rake leaves no more.

Flashbacks

Flashbacks today. Of all the times police have detained me for walking with cerebral palsy. And I’m reminded of an article that a cop I know had posted on Facebook a few years ago. This article was written by a cop and it was about how police see everyone else as criminals, liars and troublemakers.

I don’t want to believe that every cop shares that outlook, but assuming it’s true, if all cops really see everyone else as a problem, wouldn’t it be fair that a lot of people see the police as a problem?

Buses

For me, riding the bus was the hardest part about going to school. To this day, I hate buses and refuse to ride them. A lot happens on buses and no one does anything about it.

Whoa!

I’m amazed by how good I feel today. The other day, I was pretty depressed and yesterday wasn’t much better. But today, man, today I’m all mellow and at peace.

And fuck you!

Stop telling me to leave things in the past. My memories are pretty much all I got.

Speaks

I hate passive-aggressive speech, and I’m not a fan of sarcasm. These two languages often leave me confused and uncertain about how I should feel about what was said. I try not to use either of these when I talk.

I do, however, love metaphors, and I often speak metaphorically.

One Week with Chester

It’s been one week since I took in Chester. Feels like it’s been longer than that. We’ve made a lot of progress over the last seven days. Since he’s been here, I feel that I’ve been happier. I’m having fewer outbursts and I haven’t felt depressed. Chester seems happy himself. I think he knows that he is my dog now and he will never have to change homes again.
