h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

felt oddly... normal. today. or perhaps I should say normally odd. err. kind of like me, anyhow, which is about as far removed from normal as it is possible to be, whilst still retaining basic sembelence of opperation within the parameters of humanality

woke... took drugs... felt sort of OK ish... took food, so I could take other drugs... didn't feel unimaginably aweful played guitar a while....



New dress! fabulus buy.... £4.99 off EBay, (£3 postage), size 24; almost too long for me, right down to teh top of my shoes....

kinda red colour (coral?) and with strappy shoulder bits (not too narrow), and a kinda squred off neckline and very open armpit areas/arms (so my oedema ridden arms fit) loverly thin soft cotton like feel (actually viscuse ) and a really low-set waist so just perfect to fit me and a good fit all over, and in great condition. beading round the neckline/bust..... err, does look a bit ... revealing but I can't help my nipples being that prominant through the matterial - not sure I can get a bra on with it though, as I think the straps would end up showing most likely, shall have to try at some point

so... I got the black silk elbow length gloves that came a few days ago....

I've got the pearls (got them for my birthday),

and I've got the feather boa (curtasy of a pub in London where me had an H2G2 meet years ago, I lost my hat; and they gave me this feather boa like scarf thing in return... was that the princess Louise?)

No hat/head gear yet... no shoes....

so... we went out (I wasnt wearing the new dress, was wearing my leopard print leggings, knee-high black riding boots, a red blouse/shirt and a red with floral patturn skirt, plus my new red jacekt/coat )

looking... for shoes

OK, thought I'd kinda figured out my shoe size. apparently not.

I'm male size 9; have been forever and forever, like since I was 17. - actually fits a 8.5 if they're big, like my anchient hiking boots),

recently, with oedema, etc.... and female shoes your ment to go up one or two sizes... - so I figured I'm a 10 in female shoes...

My female riding boots are a 10 wide fit, but I do have some insoles in them...

My little ankle boots (male), are a 9 (EU 44 I think).

Today.

I got a size 8. and they fit fine female black slightly strappy, zip boots; ankle length

nearly all set for Friday just need some kind of head-gear if I can find it, and need to sort out a bag.... - I've a gorgeous clutch bag, might use that for a change and think it'll go better anyhow.

was going to the pharmacy today, for drugs, but it was raining and ... w e didn't. shall go get them tomorrow.

went to the supermarket..... not sure about dinner... got beef mince.... then kidney beans, tomatos, (tinned), carton of pasanta (sp?) then nextdoor for their decent garlic and chilis.... and we had onions, and some mushrooms to use up...

so put togehter a chilli (still in slow cooker), mid-afternoon....

had a short one hour nap...

and currently trying to find out if I can get a private blood test done locally, which doesn't seem as easy as I'd imagine (hospital don't seem to want to believe me, and won't re-test my LH and FSH and testosteorne until just prior to giving me IM testosterone injection; I'm getting a distinct impression and clues that I don't need their IM testosterone anymore, as it seems I might be making my own )

arms a bit painful from the oedema, but legs not too bad, just some muscle weakness in thigh/calfs

been horrible and wet/raining here most of the day... was raining last nigh twhen I went to bed... didn't sleep great last night, which is often a good indication I'll nfeel well the next day. - if I go all night not sleeping I feel fantastic the next day, and don't get badly affected by the meds yeh. that weird right... think the chilli must nearly be ready, time to find something to go with it...

So glad that you aren't feeling as awful as you have been! Each time you write that, I get happy for you!
The dress sounds lovely! I'm rubbish at dresses, so I'll appoint you my stand in dress-wearer, if you don't mind

It was an odd, feeling better... - still didn't feel like me, no cogntion emotion, or feelings, just empty inside, but at least physically I felt a bit better.

Feel rubbish now, of course today, to balance out a semi normal day didn't sleep well last night, then pharmacist messed me about and didn't have my meds (I've still some in luckily), then the GP surgery refused to l let me book an appointment with my Dr. why is everyone so horrible to me so have to either sit up all night tonight so can call the GP surgery first thing, to book an app, or get up early to do it. I'm getting so close to turning full on mental with these idiots and going homocidal.
