I'm excited that Paranorman is getting rereleased in theaters at the end of the month with the new short

I really want to see it, tho Idk if anyone would want to go with me

yesterday was a long day... spent time with the extended family which is always a little draining, but it went ok.

Butch got some new ear medicine, so hopefully that'll help him feel better.

the only thing I really have left for today is my therapy appointment, so... hopefully after I can get some tags done

oof I'm tired... for some reason I had a lot of trouble sleeping like around 4 am last night and I kept waking up... maybe I should go to bed early tonight

I want to write, but I also just want to curl up and go to sleep for awhile....

I should really write stuff tonight, though, because I don't think I'll have much free time tomorrow

just checked fitbit and found out I didn't fall asleep until 4 am last night. I knew it took me awhile to doze off, but I didn't realize I wasn't actually asleep until 4. no wonder I've felt so tired...

I should probably just go to bed early, I don't think I'll be able to write anything tonight, anyway

it's been cool and stormy out, so I figured that'd be good weather to sit inside and write, but I've felt antsy all day for some reason...

I feel restless, but then I don't feel like doing anything at the same time

I need to remind myself to make time to put out the Halloween decorations this week... I just haven't felt like doing it

woke up early. or, rather, I was awakened and couldn't get back to sleep so I just got up... anyway, lets see if I can get some things done

I'll probably take a nap later this afternoon after doing things. or hopefully, anyway... I only slept about four hours last night total

well... ended up feeling rather miserable yesterday... didn't get a proper nap in so I was just super groggy. at least last night I slept decently so hopefully today I can do stuff

been sleepy all day... not sure why as I got a decent night's rest

now I feel like I want to go to bed early, but I want to do tags

my brain is sort of fried, so I think I'll just do more tags in the morning... maybe I'll have the juice to write then

ok Pokémon Z-A ordered... I won't get a preorder bonus I don't think cuz I waited too long, but oh well... I have some FOMO about this game and want to play ASAP

actually I don't know if I'll be any good at the game, but I also don't want to get spoiled if I can help it

need to finish putting out Halloween stuff tomorrow, I keep putting it off

also need to probably send Halloween cards his week... I'm jus sending a few, but I should get that done

I hope I have enough stamps, I forgot to order more...

ok after having brain drain the last several days I finally got some tags done. now it's 3 am so I should sleep...

today is Halloween decorating day... I don't know if I'll put up all the usual decorations, tho... I don't know if I really feel like it

I guess I'll put some lights up around the door, but I don't do trick-or-treat at the house here, as the one year I did it I hardly got any kids stopping by. I go over to my mom's place, since she gets a bazillion trick-or-treaters

and I help hand out candy

ok got the Halloweening done... didn't take as long as I thought it would. found all the card stuff and stamps, too, so I can mail stuff tomorrow

ok filled out my absentee ballot request so that'll get mailed today...

hm I spose I should think up what name I want to use for Pokémon ZA... I'm pretty sure I was Sterling in my XY game, I could just go with that again

I have no idea why I used that particular name anymore...

oh... well, foo... I just got a notice that my game won't be delivered till Friday

got ferociously sleepy so I had to take an emergency nap... maybe I should have just gone to bed

I was going to play some Pokémon ZA, but I think I'm too tired... I've hardly played any of it at all so far. I sucked at the first battle, so idk if I'll get the hang of it or not

gotta bring in all the potted plants I don't want to die, there's apparently a freeze warning for tonight

I was hoping I could leave them out until Nov, but oh well...

got super tired earlier, so I dozed off for like an hour... hopefully I can still be awake enough to get some tags done

I have to take Butch his dermatologist appointment tomorrow morning, so I need to get up early...should probably go to bed earlier tonight

I get anxious driving to the vet college, as it's kinda a longish drive on the highway. but it's probably the best place I can take Butch and probably is a bit more cost effective over taking him to the specialty vet in town

Butch's ears have been worse the past couple months, with wax buildup and him itching... Idk if they'll suggest doing something different, maybe change up his ear medicine/cleaner

I just hope they don't tell me he needs another procedure done. it's been about a year since he went under anesthesia and had his ears drained/cleaned out...

almost forgot I need to reschedule my therapist appointment because I have to do family stuff this weekend... at least I can do that online easily enough

Butch did well at the vet, like he always does, but his ears are worse. He has infections and inflammation in both ears so he got some more medication...

he also has a "proliferation of tissue" in one ear and so I'm not sure if that means if he'll have to have some tissue removed

have to see on his next checkup in Nov.

I've been looking at seasonal jobs and I could do warehouse type work/package handling again, but... with my back idk if it's a good idea

I was hoping to find a job that wouldn't put any strain on my back. if I have to lift stuff then I need to wear a back brace all the time, so idk

it's tough to search for a job that doesn't involve interacting with people much and also doesn't involve work that'd make my back feel like it's going to explode

drinking nog before Halloween, which should be illegal... but I'm doing it anyway

need to remember to fill out my ballot and get it in the mail...

all the cats are running low on their food, so I ordered stuff for all of them... Got a new wet food for Hal, since he doesn't actually eat much of the last wet food I got for him. He seems to like it, but he'll mostly just lick the juice and not eat the meat

it has tuna in it, which I like to feed sparingly, but I don't want him to eat just dry food. I wish he'd just eat the prescription canned food, but I could hardly get him to eat any of it...

he loves Butch's food, but it's too high in phosphorus for him to eat it really

bleh, I'd hoped to get to the grocery store before my therapist appointment, but I dinked around too long so I'll have to go after... which is kind of annoying, but maybe things won't be too busy

I just need to remember to pick up my meds cuz I'm out...
