I'm a rather old fur who complains about laziness, weather, roommates and life in general.
Enjoy!
Enjoy!
For those not in @iggydinosaur.bsky.social telegram channel, there is an update:
Surgery went very well. Iggy is out and awake. Docs said no issues at all and the post surgery care has started.
Reasonably sure Iggy will update more, probably tomorrow.

I managed to get some sleep. Around 7 hours worth.
I need to go shopping. I am out of food and don't want to order fast food.
First, Coffee, I think. Then probably heading out.

I cannot sleep.
Sinuses are going crazy and I've got a couple things on my mind that are slightly worrying me.
Stray thoughts are driving me crazy as well. Not a good combination.
I laid down for an hour or so, got back up when the sneezing wouldn't stop.

I did not go to bed.
I have, instead, started catching up on the things I needed to do but was waiting for the new year to do them.
I'm registered for @fursquared.com now, I have some rechargeable 9V batteries coming for a couple things and need to look into a better power bank.

Welp, first purchase for the New Year decided.
Another pair of pants broke the zipper. Joy.
Going to need a few pairs to replace the two that have failed.
Ah well. At least it's a necessary purchase.

Time to go to sleep.
I only need to check all my social media feeds, youtube subs and my fanfic sites.
After all, I can't miss content that would make me 'happy'.

I've been drinking constantly after taking my half gummi since 4:30 PM Saturday.
I feel great and I don't believe it's 11:40 PM. I haven't drank that much.
Or, I have and don't remember.
Could be either. I am feeling it, to be honest.
Also, it's 50/50 if I'm watching the keyboard while typing.

In a shocking move that will surprise everyone, I actually went out, cleaned another foot of snow off the car and did errands!
My hair has been shorn and I now have something to consume this evening.
Oh, and booze.
Tomorrow I have to go back out because I forgot some things though. Bah.

Sitting here munching on freshly popped popcorn and wondering why I actually got up and around when I didn't sleep well last night and had decided to not go out today.

My devious plan to get things done today sorta worked.
I did indeed go to bed early. In bed 8:45PM. Up and out of bed 9:15AM.
12 and a half hours of rest. I feel a lot better.
It did not, however, get me up real early. I'm just now finishing my first mug of coffee.
Try, try again I guess.

Ok. I'm probably going back to bed early. I didn't sleep a lot last night.
Tomorrow, I need to go out. Food and beverage is required.
Biggest problem for me is the lack of rent from my roommate. I have, however, started preparing the new budget.
I think I'll be Ok for now.

As the last act of 2025, my roommate lost his meds IN HIS ROOM and has decided that it's too much effort to search, so he is going BACK TO THE HOSPITAL.
I don't know what to think. Honestly? I am not sure he can live unassisted anymore and I will NOT do that again. Ever.
Hell of an end.

In just under 12 hours local time, it'll be the new year.
Goodbye, 2025, I'll miss the dumpster fire.
Hello 2026, I'm impressed with the bigger and hotter flames in your dumpster fire. That must mean you are going to be a... year.
Good luck everyone, I think we'll need it.

Yeah, I hate spending money.
It's the end of the year. Right now, I've got a bit over 200 bucks for the next three days.
I sorta want to order something to eat, but don't want to spend the money since I have food in the freezer.
Gah! I want something different!
Will I talk myself into it?

I feel like crap. Woke up with cold symptoms and just got more achy as I started moving.
Couple that with the nasty state of the weather and roads, I am missing a family dinner.
Don't wanna take the risk of infecting family though.
Oh, and to top it off, the hospital is kicking my roommate out.

Yeah, I'm not going out today. Wow, did the wind and snow roll back in.
It's nasty out there and my errands are not important, so there is no reason to risk it.

Tomorrow I need to go out and pick up some booze for the New Years celebration.
I don't know what to get, to be honest. I don't like champagne.
Might just go with Rum and Coke, my usual drink.
I should also do some shopping. Weather is turning nasty this week, apparently.

I woke up super early. That wasn't great.
I decided that the half glass of wine I had left over would be a great way to start the day.
I'm on glass three now because I am not leaving the house today.
I should eat.
It's going to be a weird, warm, rainy dreary day today with ice/snow tomorrow.

Coming up on the time I get to hop in the car and drive nearly an hour to my parents place for Xmas dinner.
I should not be able to do this without a jacket! No worrying about ice on the roads and all the other driving hazards!
It's nearly 40 F out right now. Unreal.

Bah. I so want to know what the hell the upstairs neighbors are doing around midnight or later that is making the floor squeak that loudly.
Honestly, there is no rhythm or pattern to the squeaks, nothing to identify causes.
It's so loud it wakes me up and happens every night. I'm so tired again.

Time to scramble in a mad rush to take care of all the things I should have done three days ago.
Seasonal depression sucks and I should be less of a cave dweller.

So, this has been a night.
Went to bed at 7:30 PM. Woke up around Midnight.
Roommate then decided that since he's back in the same condition the last time he went into the hospital, it was time to go back.
So, I got to drive around at 2 AM. Ugh.
Now I'm awake and I shouldn't be.
Merry Xmas.

I wanted to go to bed three hours ago.
My roommate decided it was time to take a shower when I was thinking of sleep... so I waited and delayed.
Then, two hours later, he decided it was time for ANOTHER shower, delaying me even more.
I am SO sick of this. Now, it is nearly 1 AM and I am awake.

I don't like this holiday time. I get real bad seasonal depression. Coupled with my lack of motivation, I don't get anything done.
Tomorrow, however, I NEED to go out. I have to get a haircut along with grocery shopping.
I'm not sure what I want to get in the way of actual foodstuffs though.

Three days ago I complained about my roommate spending tons of money on juicing equipment, ending in buying a powered juicer.
I was wrong. It has escalated. He bought another juicer.
Apparently, the first one wasn't the type of juicer he wanted, so he got another.
At least he paid part of rent.
