We now present our "Saturday WTF?" feature:

Among the odd stuff my body does, now, Now, bruises are showing at the several blood draw attempts on the 11th.

They started showing a couple days ago, almost 10 days after the draw

WTF??????????????????????????

Who knows.

They are showing enough that Barb at Boonville Store and Cafe noticed them a little bit ago.

That time relationship between injury and bruise has been going on for a couple decades now.
About the same period as the endocrine and mitochondrial and autoimmune diseases.

And ...

The van's fuel system malfunction warning light went out on day of big weather change a couple days ago & has stayed out since.
It was on for a week and a half.
Garage was too busy to get it looked at immediately.

What should I make of that status change?

Is it that sensor conditions have changed or that the warning light burned out?
With the warning light most likely being an LED it burning out is quite unlikely.


Guess it is par for the course, my body does odd stuff, my van does odd stuff.

Perhaps my cats doing odd stuff is next.

Have already had model trains do odd stuff.

Have already had kites do odd stuff.

If odd stuff has become the normality has normality now become an oddity, the oddity??

Oh well, the endocrine disease has me too fatigued to have an existential crisis today.

Part 2: Hello again;
Did too much yesterday, slept through alarm, was late to writers group this morning.

Have alarm set on radio instead of beeper since beeper is a bit jarring & I don't have a job to get to.
Radio volume is up enough to be loud but not loud enough to be heard in adjacent apartments.
It will play for 2 hours from alarm time if you don't turn it off.
It is set for 6am.
I woke up around 9:30.
Writers group is at 10am.
Needed to shower, shave, wash hair, before going since I didn't have enough energy yesterday evening to shower after getting minor sweat while dealing with laundry and later when moving boxes out of closet.


What did I do yesterday that was doing too much?
3 loads of laundry.
Take a nap.
Pull maybe 8 boxes out of back closet to reach a couple books in bottom box.
Leave boxes out of closet.
Take another nap.

Driving the 2 point 4 miles, 3.8km, to creative writers group this morning very much illustrated that I had no business, ZERO business, driving at highway speeds; the 20mph and 30mph in town were quite enough, thank you.
(that's 32 to 48kmh)

I hate these endocrine and mitochondrial and autoimmune diseases, absolutely, totally, completely, hate them, loathe them.
Oh well, such is life.
