This doesn’t even surprise me at all right now.

Now the USPS has stolen three separate parcels of mine, because as soon as they got to my state they were… misdirected to cities that I hadn’t even heard of other than being able to see that they were in the same state as me due to the tracking. This was three separate parcels, two of them with tracking that indicated this (as the other one went with one of the others that had tracking on it and thus couldn’t be tracked itself as they were supposed to travel together). I contacted the USPS online about it and they were not helpful at all, refusing to acknowledge that it had even happened even though there is a history of mail theft in this area — try this area in particular. However, eBay was really helpful given that I made all three purchases off of them. Even though two of them were “marked” as Delivered (just not to me), they opened up Item Not Received inquiries since from their end they could see that I had intended to have the parcels shipped to my home address and that had not happened any of these three times. Once the delivery range expires for the third item with it obviously not being received, eBay can then open up an Item Not Delivered inquiry for that one as well, and I should quickly get refunds on all of the items that… wait for it… never came.

This has been my weekend in a nutshell, folks, and let me tell you: I Am Not Amused With Shenanigans.

This is not where we need to be at, fam.

Captain’s log, day 6,666: the right side of my jaw began to swell and hurt. Took prednisone. Hate prednisone. But I’m feeling better. Am still not sure why that happened in the first place but hey…

This month’s appointment with the pain management clinic that I attend did not go well. For some reason I was prescribed less of the pain management medication that works (Fioricet), and I was prescribed… a copious amount of muscle relaxers. I was prescribed these years ago in conjunction with Fioricet and I felt like they helped, but that is not the case this time, so I’ve been (self-ownership of word here) feeling stupid and tired as I stumble into things. I honestly think I’m going to stop taking them, as I’ve been told to take them twice daily as needed, because they are clearly not helping me out at all and I am still in pain. I don’t want to seem like a drug seeker or anything, but we are not yet at a place where I feel like I can indulge in hobbies and interests with the time I have to participate in them without having to work around that by scheduling doses of medication and wearing 80% amber-tinted sunglasses. So how do I speak up here?

At any rate, sunglasses and all, the boys’ all-in-one computer is almost fully loaded! I will then defragment the HDD drives, which are thw two external drives currently storing the majority of Bub’s games, and at that point I think I will have at it. I might bring up Among Us, music and all, to see if Bub runs in here squealing.
