i had to crash this morning, but that was a more normal amount of sleep for me after what was three normal/”long” days. the weather is stabilizing and that always helps, with me – i’m most productive when it’s hot and humid out, and these pressure system rollercoasters just drive my insides haywire. we’ve been all over the place this spring, from record heat to frost advisories, which is reflective of the flux going on right now, where the oceans may be fighting a final, epic battle against the vortex, for the next hundred thousand years. the north will no doubt rise again, but our species may not survive long enough to see it.

so, i’m feeling a lot more “normal”, and i think whatever was wrong with me seems to be clearing itself up. i’m expecting more normal ferritin levels when i do the test on monday, but i can’t get cocky about it and need to follow through. it’s annoying, but i get it.

i got the blood lab in the mail yesterday, but i’m going to wait until early in the week to do it. i did not get the fit sheet in the mail yet, but that was only requested on tuesday. i’m going to cal the gastric specialist like now. i’m also going to call an imaging specialist back about doing a bone density test for osteoporosis.

the diet document is now updated to mid july 2020, and i want to focus on that for the day. it flips over to actual work on the issue in september, meaning the introductory chapter is going to end up being about 100 pages.
