still in a treat-yo-self birthday mode so i got some books on the sale today (30% off the original sale price. NICE) and then i got some nice ciabatta and red onions that i'm fast-pickling rn and i got cream cheese in the fridge from when i made cake and this is gonna be so good
got that "i wanna take some selfies"-feeling for the first time in like a year
i had a dream that i vacuumed the apartment and then i woke up and i hadn't like..
wow rude
been trying to do more concentrated chinese studying today but i only managed to copy down one and a half pages before my brain said stop
i finally got around to attempting to play the dizi i ordered the other day
finger notation is so hard tho, as soon as you go outside of the normal range they're all different from a western traversal and it's so hard haha
i've been stressing about needing to shower but now wanting/having the energy to for like an hour
and then i realised that i'm working from home tomorrow, so i don't need to shower now since no one else will know if i stink
i win at life
linai need to do so much adulting in the next few days and i don't wanna

also i need to get up super early tomorrow so i have time to shower and look at my shoulder before work
it's been a week since they took out the stitches so i should be able to take off the tape strips now
i need to do so much adulting in the next few days and i don't wanna
i need to clean around my stitches since i realised this morning that the wound has become infected but i've been putting it off for hours bc it's going to hurt and i don't want to
also it's on my shoulder blade so not entirely easy to reach it either
i've been awake for over an hour so now i am hungry
someone make me food
so lying on my shoulder was not the excruciating pain i was expecting
might actually be able to sleep tonight, woop!
my hip hurts and i should go to bed soon but i took some pretty pics yesterday so someone should bother me about uploading them here otherwise that's never gonna happen
i made two portions of dinner so i'd have leftovers tomorrow. then halfway through eating i didn't care and ate it all anyway. now i can feel that it really was two portions. i'm so full my tummy hurts so bad
linamy skin won't stop itching and idk what to do
i've tried lotions. i should try showering even tho it tends to make it worse but it's way too late to shower now i need to sleep :(

@luminousarbourious i have a hydrocortisone but i'm wary of using that on such large areas since it's basically my entire legs and arms. i took an antihistamine pill and an ibuprofen. i also ended up using 3x the usual amount of after sun lotion and put on long sleeves and pants. it's now dying down enough that i hope i'll be able to sleep soon but ugh
i'm gonna go to the pharmacy tomorrow and see if they have anything that might help bc i am so done living like this
lina
yeah, i use it mostly for my palms when they get bad. oh wow that sounds awful! mosquitoes flock to me too but i only get a regular reaction i think.
i managed to fall asleep and it's not itching right now. i need to shower tho so it might come back. ugh

i'm at a meeting with my climate group and i find that i have become almost completely incapable of listening to Men™
not sure it's much of an imposition but it makes focusing on the meeting slightly problematic
i decided to throw away my black krim since the last two tomatoes had matured properly
so i was like ...great! no more whiteflies
and i made food and sat down on my couch to eat. figured i was gonna put some basil on it. only to realise that the entire basil plant is covered in whitefly larvae :(
i fought a war today
the final judgement will be made tomorrow but i am fairly confident that i won
i went blackberry picking with dad today and got absolutely covered in ticks
like i am not joking or exaggerating when i say i picked over one hundred ticks from my legs and arms today. most of them still crawling and the occasional one having just bitten me. i have never seen anything like it before. ever.
we got some nice blackberries tho! i made jam and juice with them. and i made a mess of the kitchen. and my legs are completely torn up from the thorns. so i guess i fought two wars today. not sure if i won against the blackberries tho. i don't actually think i did haha
guess who just got back inside after locking themselves out of the apartment building??
