Not sure what is so wrong? The higher humidity, along with the higher heat? Pushing a bit further than I should have, and in it? My heart hurts. My body in general hurts. Everything, every part of my body, is tired. More than tired, exhausted to the last bits of capacity.
It's as if everything I have for energy, and every little engine in my body... I am out of all fuel, and all the engines are completely overheated. I am having trouble just sitting here.
It's only 75 in this front room. It was about that in the main room, half an hour ago. So I turned the ac on down here, and turned the fan on out in that room. I closed up this room, and the bathroom window. Now will close the kitchen west window. There is a rhythm to it. Last I checked, it was 82 outside. Slowly, surely, warming out there. The ac and fan is going upstairs. Between that and the downstairs ac, it keeps the place reasonable.
I may go up for a nap. Or a much longer sleep. Difficult to know for sure. Overheating, but I shouldn't be. I just shouldn't be hot. Or this tired.
Still pleased to have gotten trash and recycling out. It's not perfect, but it is good. Didn't have a full barrel, for either. But... enough that I wanted it to go. Besides, I just like taking trash out, and recycling. It's just... a good chore to do. Especially with the inside bins bagged back up. Life is good that way.
Oh, best check the litter box. I just fed her, so that is good. Probably nothing in the boxes, yet. But... as with my bm's and else, there is a random nature to it. And I like keeping her happy and comfortable. I'll leave the door open, in case she wants to come up. But, with the ac blowing, probably not.
Have a good day. Hopefully be up and back by noon or 13:00. If not, so be it.
I'm back... nothing of import to say... G'nite.
ReplyDeleteThinking about the cat & AC/ fan. Animals can be strange, but this one makes sense.
ReplyDeleteI have an emergency generator, at work, that when you run it, your back is to a steep hillside, trees and low bushes. Anything approaching would make noise. When you light off that big diesel, a noise "barrier" envelopes you. All meaningful sound, vibration, air current and even smell wiped out of your sensory toolkit, you are "blind", ironically your eyes are the only sense you have left. I get a chill down my back and have to flashlight up the hillside to "calm" the panic of losing most of my situational awareness.
You don't have to imagine a cat, overwhelmed with air moving about and noise everywhere, not wanting to lose that last reliable danger spotter, sight.
Didn't finish the thought. She's not going to willfully go somewhere she's essentially blind and shut her eyes to sleep. If a sensory dullard can get chills, imagine a highly tuned suite of sensors getting too much confusing information.
ReplyDeleteStrange us dullards use fans and AC to drown out everything else.
Oh, yes, I actually do understand. I... am, or was... more like her. I needed to... be aware. I was told, as a child, because I was different, the people might kill me. Told often enough to understand. I didn't take it personal, like being a lefty in an islamic nation, you just know you have a mark on you, because you don't fit in.
ReplyDeleteThe reason I don't mind the whiting out of noise and else, at this point, is that I am living on the edge. If someone broke in, to end me? I'm... just not worried about it. I need the sleep more than I need the life? Or such.
