A longish pleasant nap.

Down around ten?  Half after?  Something, perhaps as late as eleven thirty, I... just can't be sure.  If I think more like around, between, the first two times.  I woke at noon, then thirteen hundred, waking about an hour after that.  It was 75/73 upstairs, with ac on.  Cool enough to sleep, mostly comfortably.  But... the heat pushed me out, I think.

All good, really.  Downstairs is, was, 73/77.  The front room heats up quickly, to eighty with me and the machine on, in, going.  I'll get into the cooler part of the house shortly.  It was 88 outside.  Still early enough that it might go up yet.  Probably will go up.  Unless a storm is pushed in, through.  Though I think we'll just get hot air for the first few days of the pressure from the hurricane.  Can hope for cooler, wet, weather at some point.  But no guarantee.  It's got a lot of summer desert area to cover between there and here.

I did call the VA.  Was a bit surprised.  An appointment is not only possible, available in VERY short order.  So, okay.  I called dental, but they just had me leave a message.  Tried to call eye, but no one answered after an half hour of hold, the longest time.  Just their propaganda about depression and suicide, on loop.  For those they can't treat medically, until they decide they will.  Survive long enough, without proper care, they may eventually come clean and treat it.  But... not if they think it might get you back to work?  Or if you are too politically incorrect for their suffering. 

Still, it's a start.  Dental is supposed to call me in the next few days.  We'll see.  Of course, being Friday, that means Monday or Tuesday... if their terms are to be taken at word.  We'll see.

Well, yes, no mask currently required.  But, they may change that at any moment it seems.  And, again, they will lose most of us.  Won't go.  I've got blood filling between a fifth and a third of my lungs, I'm... not going to wear a mask.  Others just won't.  It's just the way of it.  I just hope congress looks at the real numbers the VA is serving, and cuts funding for less service.  They won't, unfortunately, but need to do so.  Close them all, and offer us real health care plans... like what they have.

Sleep was good, needed.  Not sure why?  Oh, short sleep last night.  Right.  Now to try to get to a day.  Food in a bit.  Gaming.  A shower.  Perhaps laundry, setting up dishes?  I've been... stoved up, thinking about calling the VA.  Wasn't sure I wanted too, wasn't sure I should, didn't want to have to fight for a place, wait for six months to a year...  Took a week, or more, to call?  Something.  Bleh.  Later.
