My tire was flat again yesterday. It seemed fine before I went into Mister Doughnut’s, but as soon as I got on it for the ride home I knew it was totally flat. I was annoyed because I only just got it repaired a couple of weeks ago and ever since I had been riding carefully so it wouldn’t happen again. As usual, the universe shows that it has other plans. It wasn’t too bad though. I took it to get repaired today and it turned out to just be a stray nail or something similar. The guy remembered me from before (it is shocking how much I understand of people now without words). So it cost less. Yay! And since it was a random pointy thing, there wasn’t much I could do about it. Move on, move on.

The rest of my day has been a bit weird. I’ve been very sleepy today. Not tired, just sleepy. I felt some crap on my chest when I woke up, and felt a little bit numb in that way you do when an illness sets in, but nothing has really developed. It’s made me feel quite relaxed but very lazy. it is now the evening and I’m a bit bored with being inside. However, I know I need the rest. I could go out somewhere, and I would like to go and have fun and maybe meet people but I definitely need the rest. Several days with the younger children and late nights will do that.  Next week though I’m going to make plans to go out. It’ll be closer to pay day and so I won’t mind spending the money. I always feel a little sad when I end up staying in because I know I won’t meet any new, exciting people here. Maybe some new and exciting bugs, but that’s only if I leave my window open.

I have work to do, but I haven’t got around to it yet, and basically I am just passing time until I am hungry enough to get something to eat. Maybe I am now.
