Blast it all.

My air conditioner arrived alright.  But three sites "confused" width with depth.  What does that mean?  It means I have to send this one back and get a different one.  Three different sites had it wrong on this particular unit!  Not only can't you trust any site, you can't trust them as a group.  This isn't the first time such has occurred.  So, another week, I suppose, given the 4th is tomorrow, before I can get some cooling going on.  The delivery guy never even knocks.  He drops the packages and runs as fast as he can.  I almost caught him today, and the ac would have been going back with him if I had.

I may see about getting a return order going, if so I will simply order the right one.  That one can't be overnight-ed though.  So, given the time, at least a week before I can cool things down.  I am watching as my day schedule is being slowly whittled away.  For the time being there is little I can do about it.  Further, it really is too hot to do anything, practically.  Right now my job is to stay as cool as I can, as hydrated as possible, and just take it easy.  I can only guess that the reason I was able to handle this in the last few years has been that I haven't been well enough to notice.  Ah well.  I couldn't get much done then, either. 

I'll keep trying to figure things out.  I am almost sure there is a formula, a way.  It is like being in a maze, but one that changes.  Sometimes the changes are arbitrary, such as how my condition is affected by the weather.  Some of the changes are logical, but difficult to foresee.  I'm not a 'stupid' mouse.  I am exceptional in some ways.  It is just that this maze is incredibly complex, beyond my control or comprehension, and simply non-negotiable in some known and unknown ways.  No, maybe not right now, but I am looking for the way out.  At least I found the food!  :)  Still looking for the female section though.  Bah!

Oh, I think I best raise my water pill level.  I told my doctor I was still taking one and a half tabs... I suspected then that I was going to need it.  Now that I am back on potassium, things are working more smoothly, so I will take that extra half of a tab.  The doctors, some of them, some of the time, are finally learning to... trust me just a bit.  I haven't been very inclusive with them, and for a number of reasons.  One of them is that I can't get 'outside of my little universe or head' enough to include them.  They don't understand that I am clinging on with everything I have, asking me to also do a few more tasks on top of it... is too much.  It is simply more than I can focus to do.  So, they are going to have to guide, give me an idea of what they want as to results, and make sure I have the tools to do that.  That's all.  There isn't another choice.  I'll keep on it though, don't you worry.

Oh, I finally beat Dead Space 2 on Hard Core.  Wouch was that a challenge.  It took a couple of weeks, mostly practicing in Zealot settting.  Zealot is actually a good bit harder, but Hard Core only allows three saves for the whole game.  There are many places which can bring instant death, and even in a normal fight with one critter, death can happen from just a momentary lapse.  So I practiced my fingers off, then hit the big one.  I did it in about three days, when I finally started.  It might be a little thing, but I am not sure all players could achieve this.  I now have all of the trophies for three games, though I still need to do the work for the download content part of that game.  Well, I think I have two or three more trophies to get in that anyway.  Oh, small things, but it keeps me from being bored while I can do little else.

I believe I will, now that it has cooled a bit, give the book on the paleo diet a glance or three.  If I get a bit into that and find that I am done with it but still have a bit to go before sleep I will look over the Henle Latin courses.  Wheelocke also has a Latin course, but Henle is a bit more hardcore.  And, yeah, that's how I roll.  When I can roll.

Have a good night.
