So, what else do you do this time of night? Blog! What do you talk about? I have no earthly idea! Eh, so let's just talk fun stuff. I like music, a lot. I got an 8-disc set of much of Stravinsky's orchestral music/ballets/etc. It's beautiful. I love to listen to music a lot, and I love to play even more. That's why it makes me sad that I have not been feeling well lately. The first things to go when I am not well are class attendance and practice time. Yeah, both have been almost non-existant for over a week now. It hurts. Granted, when I am up this late at night, it stands to reason that I would not get up on time the next morning, but the thing is that I used to do this all the time freshman year and during high school before that. So, why can I not do that anymore? Well, part of the problem is that I take medication that always makes me tired, so no matter what time of day it is, I am tired. That is usually my stock answer for when people ask me how I am. Yep, cuz it's always true. I try and push past it as best I can, especially since I have been on these medications for over two years now; you'd think I'd be used to them. I try, really I do, but it just isn't adding up. This semester has been a wreck already, and we're only a month in. I just need a weekend to cool down and just not do anything, but then I get depressed from not doing anything, and then I get out of shape again and stop doing stuff i.e. go to class. So, it's a weird cycle that I never fully understand.
In other news, I am happy to report that my little sister is done with physical therapy! Since most of you have no idea what I'm talking about (assuming anyone is actually reading this), I will tell you. Back during the fall, she was playing with a neighbor boy and he was spinning her around in the front yard. Well, the boy proceeded to drop my sister...on her head. Well, her neck hurt really bad from that, and so she had to wear a brace and take nice pills. Well, as she went to the doctor a few weeks later, they determined that she had actually had a concussion, and that since they did not realize it the first time around, she had developed post-concussive syndrome, meaning her brain had been injured and needed to heal. So she was out of commission for two weeks. After that, in order to get her headaches and neckaches to go away, she went to physical therapy. I took her to a couple of her sessions while I was home for Christmas. But, talking to Mom the other day, I have since found out that she is done and back to her old self (yes, we'll call it a good thing). Yeah, she's a good kid.
Other than that, I am just sitting around gathering dust on my lazy ass, so I am going to go now. Maybe I'll go to bed...What a novel idea!!
