I just watched "quarterlife" which is a new tv show that actually started out as a web series because none of the studios wanted the show but it became so popular online that NBC picked it up. I liked it. But it does make me glad, and possibly my friends too, that it is anonymous. Not that I say a lot on this blog that could hurt anyone, but still, I found it necessary to keep it anonymous because of the work I do and some shows actually make you sign a confidentiality agreement. The show was cute, I like some of the cast, not won over by everyone yet, but the lead girl and the guy playing Jed I like. I think I can relate a lot to the main girl, although she is way cuter than I am- well, she is way skinnier than I am,- I can be very cute! I can totally relate to having feelings for someone who has feelings for my best friend, although I think many people can relate.
When I wrote earlier about being sad yesterday, I didn't go into why. Here's why, or at least what I think is why. it was my first day alone since working for 4 days and being surrounded by people. I always get sad at the end of the show because I know I am going to miss everyone. I spend so much time alone that it was really nice to be surrounded by people. And, for the most part, they were very supportive. But there were times that I found myself feeling left out or out of place. One day while we were having lunch I was sitting with a few people. We were all having a conversation and I know I was included because I was asked a question about something I had said. But shortly after that I was telling a story, about how I was in Costco when I was still using my walker and someone was walking by me with a cart and almost took out my walker. When I was finished telling the story no one said anything. I looked around and no one was paying any attention to me, no one was even listening to my story. I felt ridiculous, and hurt. That happens to me a lot. Maybe they just think I am boring, I don't know, but it really sucks when that happens! Whats a person to do when no one listens when they talk? Maybe that is why I became obsessed with how many visits I was getting to this blog. I want people to listen to me. Its bad enough that I know several of my friends have never even bothered to look at this site, although I just like to tell myself its because they care too much and don't want to worry about me, I mean that is why I haven't told my mother about this site, I don't want her to worry about me more than she already does. But I do think that it is a good way for my friends to have a better understanding of what I have gone thru without me having to put it on them in person. Enough.
Today I got a lot of pinching sensation in my right temple accompanied by a mild headache and a very annoying smell of smoke in my nose. I looked it up online before when I got it. I believe it is from my sinuses. My acupuncturist is going to give me some herbs on Friday to help with my sinus problems. Plus I still have a numbness-like feeling in my right index finger. I thought, at first, that it was from playing Guitar Hero but I haven't played in about 3 weeks and the feeling hasn't completely come back yet, if it was from GH I think it should be better by now.
Went thru my medical bills today. I don't know if I spent enough last year to be able to deduct anything. I still need to gather all my receipts from prescriptions and other things like that, but I might just come up a few $100 short. You need 7.25% of your adjusted gross income to be able to claim it, which for me is about $2200 and so far I've only calculated around $1500. I have an appointment with an accountant next week, he will be able to tell me if I can claim anything for last year, I really don't think I have enough for any deductions. But even without any deductions I should still get back around $3000, not too shabby since I only worked a few months last year! And luckily none of my disability is taxable!
