What I Did Today

I awoke at 4:30 this morning.  I could not get warm.  My body hurt.  My sinuses hurt.  I must be running a fever.  I struggled to fall back asleep.  By 6:30 I crawled out of bed for Tylenol.  Brrr...it was cold.  I checked the thermostat, and even though it was set to 70, it was only 66 degrees.  I went back to my bedroom; the thermostat read 56.  I wasn't running a fever at all.  The furnace was simply not doing its job.

My phone wasn't doing its job either.  Or maybe it was the fault of the cell phone carrier.  Either way, I was getting some text messages 2 hours after they were sent.  One message asked what I was doing.  At that moment I was waiting in the chiropractor's office.  If I'd received it when it was sent, I was actually waiting in line at the post office.

Instead of getting together with Elisabeth, I chose to get my hair colored.  I sent her a text:  Jennifer is going to do my hair at 6. Jen is a family friend.  Elisabeth & I sometimes get our hair done together.  A few hours later, I notice a text from Elisabeth that said she was getting her hair done at 6 by Jen.  I laughed.  I started a text, "So did Jen schedule us for the same time so we could go together?"  Then I realized I was reading messages from my outbox.  My brain is not doing a great job today either.

I left dinner on the stove, before rushing out for my hair appointment.  I was tired when I returned.  In spite of my family sharing that dinner was delicious, I opted for a bag of popcorn instead.  My teeth were none too happy, and my crown decided it was tired of doing its job.  I swallowed the part that broke off.  Guess tomorrow I'll make a dentist appointment.  I hope he's doing his job better than my last dentist.
