or i'll post something now.
ok, i lied. i have something to talk about right now.
this may be a bit philisophical, but whatever.
so i'm having a total allergy attack, right? about two hours after i made it to work, i totally don't want to be at work. miserable, icky, etc.
so, i finally decide that the best course of action would be to cross the street to the conveniantly located pharmacy in the bowell builing (@ UH). they do carry a small variety of over-the-counter stuff. i located some heavenly benedryl and was on my way.
this made me think of something, though. i must admit that i was extremely sucked in the hurricane coverage last week. watched lots of videos on MSNBC. out of that, i have a few conclusions:
- i'm very glad that i'm not reliant on any kind of long-term health care (unless you want to count my glasses). should i have the need to go back to "hierarchy of needs" survival mode at any time (aside from things i do to myself, like not getting enough sleep and being zombified trying to focus on "eat, shower, work, eat, shower, work") my needs are thankfully very basic and my survival is not at all tied to where i happen to be living, etc. stemming somewhat from that, i have really begun to consider what kind of impact my mediocre health might have on me if something weird did happen to me, or say, this whole half of the country. when i say mediocre, i don't mean that there's anything really wrong with me, but i am physically out of shape and overweight and not necessarily up to the task of survival in crazy times like the ones people have been having lately.
-i'm also very glad to belong to the more or less middle class. i'm probably sorta lower middle class, but still...as i walking back to work from UH, it occurred to me that i really ought to thank my lucky stars that i have to ability to do the following on a whim: go to ATM machine, take out $20 without really thinkging about it and spend $6 on medicine that it's really not necessary to my survival but merely makes my life more convenient and comfortable and is beginning to give me a nice high. my spelling is always pretty bad, but please excuse me if i'm spelling stuff weird due to medicine head.
at any rate, i cannot even begin to think about what happened to all those people stuck in the hurricane mess and am happy to have the means to do the stuff i do.
now i really have to eat, which maybe will help stabilize my high.
