Memories of Sand

How fun and useful and great! /sarcasm I'm trying to wake up and get out of bed and go to my desk where I have a set up of computer, external hard drive, printer, and sun lamp hooked up into a surge protector which I am unfortunately plugging into an ungrounded outlet with a grounding adapter. Point of going to my desk in the morning is using the sun lamp as soon as I get up, so I might drink tea and do stuff there. This morning I got up and of course the outlet is not responding. I don't have many grounded outlets in my apartment, which I had hoped would be a problem I could solve another time. Now I appear to have blown out the outlet, and also my gas company still doesn't have me set up as the correct recipient of the gas bills, and I don't understand how my electricity bills are as high as they are. I think I may need to call my electricity company to make sure that I am paying for the right account with them, which sucks. After changing everything around to try to get 45 minutes with the sun lamp, I spent another twenty minutes on the phone with the gas company, though this time I finally talked to a competent person who knew how things work, I think.

Then doctor appointment and a meeting to talk about duties for the next year with my new co-chair for my committee. Also, school tomorrow is going to be incredibly confusing and also I have a committee meeting in the evening. My birthday is Thursday and I am feeling quite overwhelmed by life right now.

I've started watching Supergirl in an effort to find more things to watch that aren't Super Dramatic and I'm liking it a lot so far. Also also I'm gonna go see Sailor Moon R this afternoon to try to lighten my mood.

I have got to get more work done. I am feeling really sluggish. Gotta get things done though...
