M-4 the "real one"
I had the right number of words I needed yesterday, but listed the entry as M-4. I told you I was sleepy. I am curious to find out what my penalty for that is. Still tired today but not quite as miserably tired. I still do not feel like writing. I can not think of anything to say. I do not know what to write. Why do i do these things to myself. I am two weeks behind on the poetry challenge because I need to write a specific form. I do not want to. I do not like poetry forms that tell you what to do. I am much more of a free verse type. My thumb still hurts from where it got cut on the lid of the laundry detergent. The other one that got cut by my knife when i was stupidly using it like a fork, is feeling fine and may as well be healed. Typing is not fun with my thumb hurting every time I use the space bar. My hand is cramping up. Especially my thumb. I really should do my carpal tunnel exercises. I could use a forearm massage on both my arms. I fell the day before yesterday. I was taking the trash out and went to pull the door closed behind me and somehow got over balanced and down i went. I bruised my left knee and jarred both arms and landed on my butt. I did not hit my head. But I have been dizzy for the past two days. I do not know why for sure but I am pretty sure that i am dehydrated. My eyes are acting weird. Somewhat blurry at times. I do not know what is causing that either. I probably should go in for my yearly exam. Last year the eye doctor did not do much. They did not check my prescription either time i was in there. he referred me to a specialist and the specialist could not find any reason for me to have been referred. I am thinking of changing my eye doctor. There is another branch of the same practice. Maybe they would actually do their job. He is the same eye doctor that got as far as finding my wife's cataracts and then sent her to a specialist without really doing much of a check on her either. The eye surgeon seemed upset that he had not even attempted a refraction on her. He barely looked at her eyes he diagnosed her with cataracts on the basis of an optimap picture of her eyes. He barely spent five minutes on her. we spent more time waiting for the appointment than in it. Four hundred sixty words down and four hundred seventy to go give or take. I have no idea what to write. I have a tendency of capitalizing the I in idea but at the same time I do not always capitalize the pronoun. Does that mean ideas are more important to me than I am? is it some kind of frieudian slip. I do not know. I have cracked the five hundred word barrier. Four hundred words left to write. I am tired. My eyes are tired. I have to stop for a while to give the dog his insulin and the other dog her heart pills. I will be back and I will write the four hundred words. I am not correcting my grammar or spelling or punctuation. I am just writing. Screw commas! I am also not fixing capitalization at this point. I just want to get done with this. I am tired. I am sleepy. I am worn down. my eyes hurt. My head hurts. My eyes are really blurry and dry. I am thinking of putting in some eye drops to see if that would help. I think I just need a new glasses prescription. And new glasses. I guess that goes without saying that i would get a new pair of glasses with a new prescription. two hundred fifty words left to write. I can do this, I CAN do this. I will do this. I can write. I will write. I can not believe i labled yesterday's entry with today's date. Oh well, I wonder what the penalty will be. I hope they are not too strict about it. I had the right number of words and it was on time just mislabled with the date. It has not been edited. I feel stupid for letting that happen. I was just so tired last night. I am so tired right now. Almost eight hundred words. just One hundred seventy five words left to write. I got this. That is not gramaticly correct was it. Grammarly did not flag it, so whatever that means. One hundred twenty five words to finish the challenge for the day. My wife is watching facebook videos again and i keep getting distracted. There is a cat that bit a guy who is there to help the cat. My arms hurt. I hurt everywhere after my fall. I have a cat in my lap under the lap desk I am using. I know it is not Ruby MIttens. I just got told to correct my spelling by grammarly I do not know what triggered that. my leges are being uncooperative. they are kicky and uncomfortable. I need to lie down but I can not until I get the right number of words done. I do not want a penalty two days in a row.
