Excessive

So today didn't exactly go as was planned, and I guess it worked out anyway, but it always sucks when things don't go the way you invisioned them. The plan was to get up at 9am and go shopping, to be home before lunch so we could enjoy a lunch with some of the food we bought. However, I couldn't sleep last night, ended up getting back up and taking a sleeping pill, and it made me sleep a lot longer, and I went to bed later than I wanted to, so I couldn't get myself out of bed until 11am.

Bekki had got up but since I was sleeping, she couldn't really do anything. We were going to go to the mall for specific things - mainly a black shirt for Bekki's cafe shifts, as well as a pair of boxers for me to lounge around the house in, as well as sleep in.

We ended up having lunch before we went, which was warmed up Jalapeno Cheddar soup that I had made the day before, which was great, and hit the spot more or less. We struggled to slowly get ready, and eventually we left the house around 1:40pm to catch the bus to Whiteoaks. Bekki read her school on the bus and I read more of my Last Days of the Icans (which is awesome) and the time went by very quickly, which was nice.

We were pretty quick at the mall... the first store we went into was the Gap and we found a shirt for Bekki right away, although it was a bit expensive, it was nice and will look good as a normal day to day shirt as well. From there we went to Walmart to get some boxers for me, and I ended up getting some undershirts, boxers and a pair of Super Mario pijama pants for when it's cooler (ie. the fall).

We got back on the bus almost right away, read some more on the way back and got off at the No Frills. We picked up some groceries so I can make dinners for the week... yeah, I planned out meals for each day so that I would know what to do buy, so that I wouldn't have to walk to the store every time I wanted to eat any kind of food, which was a major point of... frustration and discomfort that I've been feeling lately. Step one in a multi-step solution I guess you could say. The walk home from the store sucked, it was super hot and super painful, but... that's the shitty part about not having a car.

I made an amazing meat loaf dinner once I got home, cleaned up a bit (well, Bekki did), and once dinner was done, settled in and played some games. Bekki napped on the couch and I played Half-Life 2, Penny-Arcade Ep. 3, WarCraft 3 and listened to GFW Radio. It was relaxing, although hot. I had the fan on me and that was nice, and drank a bunch of water while I played. Overall it was a pretty relaxing night, although the though of... tomorrow... has me anxious, and not for anything specific, but just the idea of there being a tomorrow.

Unrelated, tomorrow we've made an appointment at the vet for Kairi to have her ear checked out because it's got some gunk in it, and makes a liquidy sound and she scratches it and it's very itchy for her, and I know she's in discomfort. I've put it off for awhile and feel terribly guilty about it, so we're finally going to take her. After that, I've got school...

Gonna head to bed soon and hopefully fall asleep in a good amount of time. Gotta get up at 8am tomorrow, so I need some sleep. Besides, I've felt exausted all day, and I really just want a nice sleep.
