Yesterday not only did I do all that shipping, and getting a few groceries and that plate lunch, but I finished the load of laundry I had soaking, T-shirts, sox, and a big bulky pair of sweat pants.
I actually fell on the friggin' stairs to the loft. It was the next to the last step so it was a sort of halfway fall, I fell, making a big noise of course, but it was more like falling onto a 45-degree plane, and I was able to catch myself on my knees and right side, so amazingly it hasn't made me feel less sore this morning.
I got all things packed last night so today, in theory, all I'd have to do is a haircut and clean myself up, get out of these clothes I've been wearing since Sunday the 3rd.
My rabbi appointment just got moved from today at 3PM to next Wednesday at 2PM. I still need to go out and do things though, the post office downtown, the bank, Whole Foods and buying more pills at the Walgreens on Santa Clara St. At least there won't be room taken up in my panniers by wine!
I got good sleep last night, too. I waited until 2AM when my next Tylenol 500 was scheduled, took it, snuggled up in my neck brace and I was out. Woke up around 6, had some ibuprofen, then back to sleep until around 10. The pain on getting up at 10 was enough to make me yelp, but not as bad as yesterday.
I'm still firm about trying to make myself over as a singer rather than a trumpeter. I need to keep stress off of my back, and if I am not able to make myself over as a singer, I will have to play a short, "shepherd's crook" cornet, as the shortest horn in the trumpet family and really a fine instrument.
But the possibility of being a singer is intriguing. Yesterday I found the song "Tzena Tzena Tzena" which has been sung by everyone, and frankly I'd love to be able to put across songs like "Everything Is Broken" by Bob Dylan and "Born To Love Volcanoes" by The Dead Milkmen. It would be letting my inner little kid, who burst out with imitations of silly TV commercials and things on the Checkers And Pogo Show, out.
I left here around 3. Dropped off trash, used the loo at Nijiya because I really needed to, stopped at Ukulele Source to look at their ukes, dropped off packages at the post office, went to the bank to deposit my check, then went to Whole Foods to buy some stuff (a little fish and rice and some seltzer water) and sat and ate upstairs, then got another couple small things and got more money out. Then went to the bike shop to see if the bike trailer part I have coming is in, but it's not. Had a nice talk with the guy, we talked about how horrible the new regime is and I said I have to hold off on buying a folding bike because I don't know how bad things will get and right now my first priority is to get my passport renewed.
Then back to Whole Foods to lock the bike up and took a #22 bus up to the Walgreens to get more of the OTC medication I'm on. That was actually pretty quick as, to go back to Whole Foods, the #22 bus came right away.
Now I bought grocery type things at Whole Foods and rode for home. Although traffic was heavy, places like Whole Foods and San Pedro Square were dead. Maybe people are holding back on spending, to afford to get their passports renewed?
I stopped at Nijiya for sashimi stuff and got back here.
