The weather here has been quite nice lately. Very fall-like, with highs in the 80s and evening lows in the upper 60s. Just lovely.
Of course, tomorrow it's going to get back into the 90s, but that's life. At least we've avoided the worst of the hurrican/tropical storm stuff. So far. *knocks woods*
My feet are finally, pretty much back to normal, and so is my acid reflux.
So, of course. something else has to happen. Not to be gross or anything, but my bowels have been locked up tighter than Ebenezer Scrooge's wallet.
Its my own fault. I've been backsliding a bit, eating more processed crap, that I know I shouldn't.
And last night, after I'd finished supper, I got a weird pain on the left side of my abdomen. I've had it before, usually when something is trying to pass through my guts, but never quite this intense. I wound up lying on the cold, firm bathroom floor (which helped immensely) while rolling gently from side to side (like a beached whale, but more acrobatic). Eventually, the discomfort went away (it felt like a pulled muscle, not a sharp pain), and I drank some cold lemonade which also helps in these situations.
Everyone's saying it was probably a gallstone, but I don't buy it. If it had been a gallstone, wouldn't the discomfort have started on the right side of my body, where the gallbladder is? I think it's more likely linked to my constipation.
Anyway, it was okay today. I went to work, and afterwards, went and saw Shang-Chi. It was very good. Then I came home and ate some rice (roughage!) and had some mustard potato salad (because I was still hungry), and am hoping to have a proper BM in the near future.
But tomorrow, I have to take my Other Laptop a.k.a. The Problem Child, to the computer repair place. I keep getting that "Your PC has encountered a problem and needs to restart" message, and I think it's a hardware issue. Hopefully, its something minor. I've had this laptop about 7 years? I'm probably due for an upgrade, but I don't want to have to reupload all of my software.
And that's been my week.
Hope y'alls has been good.
Expect more frequent posting starting tomorrow.
