Fuck You, July 6th

Last night I was pretty low and did something I haven't done since college.  I took....  I don't remember, maybe 3 Ambien and 4 Xanax?  Whatever.  I was so depressed I didn't want to feel anything.  Of course I wrote stupid and incoherent messages to people and did some stuff around the apartment that I don't remember.  I had an herbal tincture brewing and somehow all of the soggy herbs ended up in the dishwasher.  I seem to recall laying on the couch talking, but I don't know what I was saying.  The good news is I didn't try to eat anyone.  I was worried about that since the onslaught of cannibalism in the news.  I slept through my voice lesson, but apparently managed to send a lucid sounding email to my voice instructor saying my throat was sore, (which it was).
Anyway, I woke up at 8 pm, went pee, then went back to bed until 3 am or so.

I was chatting with Nathan on Facebook since he's in Illinois and couldn't sleep, and Dee popped in chat and asked if I wanted to go to water aerobics.  We haven't gone forever, and I tried to get out of it, but we ended up going.  What a disaster.  The entire time I was kind of barfing in my mouth because I had eaten before I left.  Then when class was over we went in the sauna and I discovered my skin was peeling off.  Like, when I ran my hand over my arms or legs, a bunch of skin rolled up and came off.  It was gross.  After my shower I was getting dressed and found I had forgotten to pack my bra.  Dee suggested I free boob it, but I didn't want anyone to mistake my chest for kettle bells.  Thankfully I wear a bra under my bathing suit, so I just put the wet one back on.  Then I turned to get something out of my locker and tripped in a puddle of water and fell, AGAIN, on my bad knee.  The rest of me went into the lockers.  My knee has already started to swell up.
Being naked and the size of a planet in a locker room is bad enough, falling while you're naked and the size of a planet in a locker room is much, much worse.

Afterward I dropped Dee off and bolted back to the safety of my cave.

Oh yeah, I had another random person compliment my complexion.  Dee and I decided it's because my cheeks are always red, and it's older women that compliment me, so maybe they consider my scorched hue attractive.  Who knows.
