I rage-napped today.

Well today has been less productive than I wanted it to be; however, I did get something figured out that I was messing up in Calculus.  That last test honestly wasn't very hard - I was just doing stuff wrong because I only THOUGHT I knew what I was doing.  😂

It was a super easy thing that I could not figure out by myself and it filled me with rage - so I rage-napped until I got hungry, then Shaun came over, asked the right questions, and we figured it out.  Hopefully when I re-take test 2 on Monday I will come out with better than a C.

It really shouldn't have taken me ALL DAY to get this, but at least that is something.  I still have the new Cal test to prepare for as well as a TON of Physics homework, but I'll be awake for a while and I have tomorrow, too.

I hope you all had a good day.  Other than being stumped by Calculus mine was really ok.  It has been quite soothing to not have notifications going off on my phone and computer.  I feel like that is going to go a long way towards my sanity this semester.  Phew!

Thank You, Update, and Other News:

Thank you to everyone for being supportive.  Y'all are so amazing.

I haven't been awake long.  I usually do my Facebooking in the mornings and evenings so this is my chill time... for now.  I'm about to hit the books, though.  Just having my breakfast and letting my brain get good and awake.

Other News:  I found out who my adviser is at JSU and I'm meeting with him on Monday!  I'm excited and nervous, but I hear that he's nice.  Also - I was accepted as a candidate for graduation by GSCC so after they evaluate my transcript from this semester I should be good to go!  😃

I want to let all of my friends know...

I want to let all of my friends know that my stress level has been THROUGH THE ROOF lately.  My temper has been short, my psoriasis and arthritis are flaring up, and I am generally REALLY not cool to be around.  I'm either eating, sleeping, studying, working, or upset.  Also, my current back situation hasn't helped anything.  Thankfully it is improving - slowly but surely.

I know I've been ignoring people and I apologize for that.  It's probably a huge change from the Blu that never left a message or comment un-read or responded to, but I just can't right now.  So I'm posting this to let everyone know that if I'm not talking to you - it's really not personal so please PLEASE don't take it that way.

I have uninstalled Messenger from my phone.  That used to be the way I kept in touch with my guys, but I've instructed them to use another method.  I know that I could mute the notifications, but it really wasn't enough.  I just don't need to be so easily accessible to other people right now.  So far this is the toughest semester of my life and I can't afford distractions right now.

Everyone feel free to comment and write me all you want, but please don't be shocked or offended if I'm not fast to respond.  It's not you; it's me.  I truly believe that once I get through Physics I'll be through the worst of it.  That may be naïve, but pretty much everyone has confirmed that it was one of the more challenging classes they took.

I look forward to having a life again soon, but it probably won't happen until May.  I love you and I miss you!  ❤

I have Physics homework due at midnight.

I have Physics homework due at midnight.  Most of it is done.  I feel like I'm crashing, though.  How horrible am I if I just go to bed?

I don't know if it's the extra back pain or what, but I feel especially drained today.  🙁

I can walk mostly upright today.

I can walk mostly upright today.  Wasn't in nearly as much pain when I woke up this morning as I was yesterday.  Currently icing my back and taking Ibuprofen because I'm supposed to.  Maybe the rest of the day will be ok, as well.

Honestly half-way considering taking a pillow to school.  Those desk chairs are not comfortable.  I might at least put it in my car for the drive.

My guy likes his gift. 😁

Shaun → Blu:  Fuck chocolate.

I don't really do holidays, (thank goodness)...

I don't really do holidays, (thank goodness), or I might have been in for a huge disappointment with having my back screwed up on Valentine's Day.  Or maybe not because mom and Shaun took good care of me, I did have a man use a huge vibrator on me, plus I got to spend 6 minutes strapped down.  😂😂😂

Sorry, y'all - I couldn't resist.  😛  But hey, you gotta have a sense of humor about these things.

So far I'm feeling a little better.  Been icing my back since I got home.  My brain farted and I didn't make it to Intro to Programming this evening (for whatever reason I was thinking I had to leave at 5:30, but that's when class started - oops.)  I napped on the couch despite the loads of homework I had and now I'm about to jump back into that for a while.

As far as we can figure I messed up my back from SITTING DOWN.  I know that sounds ridiculous, but seriously.  The desk chair in my bedroom isn't comfortable so I squirm around and sometimes sit on my feet (or one foot), and I'll do that for hours at a time.  😕  I know it isn't good, but this is really the only room that is good for doing homework, so...  I don't know.  I guess I need to figure out something else.

Anyway, I hope all of my friends have had a good day whether you celebrate a holiday or not.  🙂❤
