We're home now

I had a really good time with Pauley today. We got to the Ren faire around 215. I'm so glad I got my walker. We got to see some really nice things and ate some super yummy food. We bought some salted caramel butterscotch fudge. I got one adult drink. It was a lavender lemonade. Very refreshing. We got to watch the washing well wenches at 4pm. Then we sat for a bit and I realized my back was really ouchy. So we decided to go home at around 6. I'm laying in bed just relaxing.
I only got 4 selfies, I forgot to take more pictures. But I think I got overwhelmed a lot. I was afraid Pauley wouldn't enjoy the time with me. But she said she had a really good time. I want pizza.
On our way home we stopped at 7-Eleven so I could get a specific drink I was craving. At the register I saw my favorite cookie from 7-Eleven... Chocolate chunk. Long story short Pauley thinks I have impulse control problems. I think she's just jealous that I can eat the cookies from 7-Eleven.
Next Saturday or Sunday we're going to the pride event in Detroit. The puppies march in the parade every year. I'm not sure I'll be able to march cuz I've got my walker. But I'm hoping to get a new shirt. There's live music and vendors and really yummy food.
Wow. I just realized I haven't had any coffee yet.

The appointment was good

She was a little surprised by me having memory gaps but we're going to take me off zonegran. We're trying something similar to emgality. But we're going to pursue Botox injections in 4 weeks.
I called my mom to tell her about my appointment today and I asked her how she's doing cuz she broke her ankle almost a week ago. Apparently she also broke a bone in her leg. She's having surgery next Wednesday.
My back hurts like hell. I took 2 tramadol an hour ago. It hasn't helped. I've got weird pain under the bottom of my ribs.
I haven't eaten yet today. I need to order groceries but Pauley is taking forever to finish putting what she wants on the list.
I'm hoping to get my hair cut this weekend. Maybe I'll even get some bubble tea if I'm very lucky. I haven't had any in over a year! It's my favorite drink. I get taro and caramel and banana. Oh gosh it's epic. There are 2 bubble tea shops that I love. The other one, I get chai tea, pumpkin, and caramel. Holy moly it's good.
I wish I had some cookies to go with my coffee. I keep forgetting that I have a bottle of coffee creamer in my fridge. I got excited when I saw Aldi had an oatmeal cookie flavored coffee creamer. I bet it would be delicious in my psychocandy tea.
I didn't sleep well last night. I tried to go back to sleep after Pauley woke me up on my couch. We finished doing all my meds for the day at about 5am. Then I went to bed and just kinda doomscrolled for a few hours before I took a shower. I think I might have gotten 4 or 5 hours of sleep on my couch.

Sigh... Well I tried.

Well I took a tramadol and a Norco about an hour before we went to the art studio open house. I was so hopeful that I could handle it. Unfortunately after about 10 minutes I needed to sit down. The pain spiked to 8 and I couldn't breathe so I sat down and used my rescue inhaler. We decided to go home after we had been there for about 1 hour. We only got to see one art installment. I felt horrible not being able to see more on the other floors but Pauley said I was doing what was right for my physical health. My right hip is sending sharp stabbing pain down my right leg.

I was hungry when we got home. I tried getting a fancy hot dog from the food truck at the art event but they didn't have any hot dogs. So once we were settled in Pauley asked me what I was hungry for. I decided I just wanted a corn tortilla with melted queso quesadilla cheese. I ripped it into pieces and dipped in some avocado ranch sauce. Wow it was delicious!

I got a lot of compliments on my shirt. I wore the one with the newspaper clippings about the JFK assassination.

I need to get a few pairs of board shorts.

Dinner tonight was delicious

I heated up some pork carnitas. I put some queso quesadilla cheese on a tortilla and topped with another tortilla and microwaved it to melt it. Then I put some pieces of pork carnitas down the middle and topped it with a good drizzle of avocado ranch sauce. OMG so delicious! Tender, Juicy, flavorful. I'm quite happy with it.#foodieadventures Except now I've got a migraine. It's behind both of my eyes. And my eyes are sore from*gestures vaguely at everything*. I already took a ubrelvy a little more than an hour ago. I guess I can take a tramadol.#Migraine Tomorrow is the art studio open house. I'm gonna set my alarm for 9am so I can take a shower and have some coffee. I'll probably make some mocha mint coffee. The cherry bonbon flavor coffee is yucky. And I ran out of the vanilla lavender flavor coffee. It was really yummy. I've got a bag of blueberry crumble flavored coffee that I haven't opened yet. Basically I've got plenty of options.#coffeeadventures Would anyone like to buy a slightly used Pauley? Some assembly required. Batteries not included. She's on my last nerve. I love her but sometimes I just want to shake the shit out of her till her senses plinko into their correct spots.

Throwback

I put SoaD on Spotify and I just realized that the song that was just playing was "pretty fly" by the offspring. I forgot how good it was. I was bopping along, sitting next to pauley... she must think I'm nuts. I mean more than normal lol.

I ran out of IQ Joe today. And pauley is trying to keep up with my demands for oat milk. I gotta order more oatmeal. We have a bag of almonds for almond milk but that requires soaking them overnight.

I slept from 8am to 1212pm when my therapist woke me up. I've been losing days for a few weeks but this week was the worst. I thought today was Sunday.

My youngest sister had a baby girl yesterday. Just another niece I'll never meet. Oh well.

For lunch today I had a few Dino nuggies dipped in some Taco Bell avocado ranch sauce. I got the sauce from Amazon. It's pretty good. I was worried about it being spicy but it's not.

I also got some dill pickle flavored puffs. They're like cheese balls except pickles. And OMG so delicious!

I got some biscoff cookies and cookie butter.

Tonight's foodie adventure

I was craving salty and sweet. My head is foggy and jumbled but I knew I needed something gooey and cheesy. So I scurried to the kitchen and looked in the freezer for some frozen pancakes. I couldn't find them and I sculked back to my couch. Pauley asked what happened and I said I can't find my pancakes. She went to the kitchen and found them!

So she put them in the microwave for 2 minutes. When there were only a few seconds left I scurried back to the kitchen and got a butter knife, 2 slices of cheese, and the syrup. I smeared some butter on all 3 pancakes and then I put a slice of cheese in between. I zapped it in the microwave for 30 seconds. Then I cut it up into pieces and drizzled butter flavored syrup on top. I scurried back with my new treasure.

It smelled delicious. It tasted even better! I'm a very happy goblin.

Late night early morning snack and fancy drink

Pauley said she was hungry and asked if I wanted something to eat. I went to the fridge and found my toaster scrambles. I microwaved 2 of them for dinner. Great googly moogly they're so good.

I had pauley make me a bottle of juice. It's a mix of tropical coconut, lemonade and blueberry lavender syrup. It's so yummy.

Dinner tonight was superb

We worked together tonight. She made the salmon and I made the butternut squash. The salmon was cooked perfectly. The squash was a little overcooked but it was delicious. We are such a good team.

Today's coffee adventure

I decided to do IQ Joe instead of brewing coffee. Pauley made it for me. I have hazelnut flavor IQ Joe and she mixed it with some eggnog hot chocolate mix and some sucralose and some almond milk. It was delicious! I swear it tastes better when she makes it. But I'm sad. Someone drank my bottle of coffee. Now I gotta go make more. I think I'm gonna also get some veggies and some hummus for dipping. Maybe some hearts of palm and some mushrooms. Maybe a few sugar snap peas.

Healthy snacks

I was feeling peckish so I went to see what I had. I got lots of yummy veggies from Aldi today and yesterday I got dill pickle hummus. So I got some sugar snap peas, cucumber, and mushrooms and dipped them in the hummus. It was delicious! The hummus is so good. My favorite is the mushrooms.
