Me and my BeReal being boring

March 14, 2024

Looking at yesterday’s photo now.... I did NOT mess up today like I did yesterday. I just did some kinda boring things, all of which I forgot to take pictures of. I was definitely thinking I’d like to be able to grab a photo at the clinic where I got my blood drawn, but I forgot to do that. The lady who was drawing my blood did remember me from last time though, and we were both shocked when she was able to draw from me on the first poke. I congratulated her, and she said she felt like she earned those congratulations. The lady who stuck me today was named Shirola, and we talked a decent amount. In the waiting room, I also had a decent conversation with a woman named Jackie, who used to be a lab tech. She told me it was good I was hydrating myself, but then when I went in, Shirola actually told me that anything that contains caffeine can shrink your veins, so the tea I was drinking might not have actually been beneficial like Jackie assumed the drink would be. I got there like 10-15 minutes early, and I was considering stopping in to Turtle Bread and buying a latte, but decided not to because I remembered I had the tea in the car. 

Let’s get to the photos.... I have the selfie, which I just took because I used to like to take a “daily selfie” every day. I put myself together a bit more than I had done yesterday, so that wa a decent moment. Later on, when my BeReal went off at 5:52 pm, and I got it on time just sitting in my bed. I’m afraid I don’t have any fun photogenic plans for the rest of the night. I’m just gonna sit here and read a bit. I already had my meds at 4:30 with another container of sushi for like 11g fat. Now, I’m going to finish the three pieces I left behind because I’m still the tiniest bit hungry and I just remembered I still have them. Let’s see what else I did in the day... first thing in the morning I went to a dentist appointment. 

When I was there I mentioned that it was a little irritating that my dad had called that I was gonna be a few minutes late before I called. The dentist sometimes he “just can’t help being a parent.” He did say it was nice to have been called by both of us. I literally just did it on the way there, thinking I should let them know. Then I went to go get the blood draw, and was drawn from on the first stick, which NEVER happens. Afterwards, I popped over to get my oil changed, and this appointment I was perfectly on time for. Afterwards, the thing I achieved was changing my credit card on the Amazon and Target sites to my new card. It’s funny... I got a loaner car from Action Auto because I thought they might keep my car overnight, but they were done in a few hours so my loaner car got little to no use. At night I also had my night meds with the other container of 14g fat sushi from the $6 sushi day. I was a tiny bit hungry, which is better than much of the time for me. I also randomly sent blood test results from Tuesday to Caroline because I was a little bit confused which portion of the test showed that my immune system was struggling. We talked about that and antibodies a bit in the groupchat with Hannah that I had re-awaked in preparation for hanging out with them tomorrow night.
