FLOOFS

I always find it amusing when food is described as "decadent", because that word actually means "degraded" or "in a state of decay"

I have once again discovered that something I was doing that I thought was helping was actually doing more harm than good.

The thing I was doing was taking melatonin before bed. As it turns out, melatonin can cause anxiety, is not effective for insomnia, and has an interaction with blood thinners.

The underlying cause of my sleep issues has been anxiety, but I'm taking buspar for that.

Anyways, this discovery was spurred on by me sleeping better than normal last night and then realizing that I forgot to take my melatonin. The a small research binge followed.

Okay, so my state has some services for disabled people, which my mother uses. One of these services is that we have someone come in every tuesday to do cleaning. Back in august though, our cleaning lady was out for a few weeks because she said a teacher at her child's daycare tested positive for covid, so she was quarantining herself.

Also around this time, my mother had increasing trouble breathing, and every time she had to get up to go the bathroom or to bed, my brother and I had to turn her oxygen machine up to max, and once she sat back down we had to wait a few minutes while her blood oxygen levels recovered. She said back then that if it got any worse she would need to go to the hospital. But she got better, thankfully.

Today, while the cleaning lady was here, she said that she had tested positive for covid back in august. This means that she quite possibly may have given us covid before she tested positive. If my mother had not gotten vaccinated she would be dead.

Plus, but as I was typing this post I just remembered that back in august my brother was worried because I seemed to be out of breath, but I downplayed it because I do that with my health problems. So, I probably had it as well.

Baltimore cops are being sued for robbing the victims of a shooting

I feel like I'm twice as gay as I was at the start of the month.

My mother is watching the original CSI. Namely, that one furry episode 😒

TIL that people are eating meat that has been left sitting in a jar for several months because it can allegedly get you high. 🤢

Years ago, I had gotten this dome that projects lights into the surroundings, and one feature it had was that you could plug a USB drive into it and it would play songs while making the lights react to the music.

The box has been sitting on an unused dresser behind the stairs for years now, and I just happened to notice it had some stuff in it. One of the things in it was a small 32gb flash drive with 4 songs on it.

So, score I guess?
