Washington Is Gorgeous

Woke up this morning feeling like I'd been hit by a bus... a small bus, but dang. I didn't think we'd done all that much yesterday. I'd just barely made my steps. I think it was a combination of sitting in the car so long, and PMS. My period is overdue, and the longer it takes to come the more my body hurts. To the point where I'm almost relieved when it finally arrives, because I know I'll start feeling better. My bad is agony.

I anticipated work was going to be laborious. Not because it was so busy. It was, but not where I was at. There was a PINK event going on, so that side of the store was hopping. While the VS side was dead. I did maybe 4 fittings my entire 8 hour shift. Despite being very not busy, the first 6 hours went by effortlessly enough. It was the last two I struggled with. I'm not letting today get me down, or derail the progress I've made when it comes to being more positive about work. I can't go back to my old way of thinking. I was killing myself with the amount of negativity I was harboring. I can't let one bad day get me down. Tomorrow will be more normal.

After I got off work Snookums took me out to Sea Change (the dispensary in Discovery Bay I like). It's been awhile since I've been able to get a refill cartridge for my vaporizer. I think I can pin my lack of cannabis on why I've been in more pain lately, and haven't been sleeping as well. But with my husband constantly fucking up and being unemployed, I don't feel comfortable blowing money on cannabis when I don't know when the next wave of funds will be coming in. Not that I consider cannabis to be a luxury. I need it. But it isn't life or death. It's quality of life. So, it's been being placed on the back burner. Finally, I got to place it back on the front burner. I deserve to be pain free. Especially if I'm going to be the one working all the hours to make sure we have what we need.

We stopped at Fort Worden, too. It was just too cold and windy to walk the beach like we usually do. We hadn't anticipated the storm blowing in and the kids didn't bring jackets (because it was almost 80 degrees at home). We did get to take in a really amazing sunset, though. it was surreal how vivid the colors were. Like a cartoon. Reds, pinks, oranges, blues, purples, greys. It was gorgeous. So, it didn't feel like a wasted trip. It's moments like that when I really love living in Washington. I'm sure everyone thinks were they live is beautiful, but really... Washington is gorgeous.

I did a little research on the new strain I got tonight. It's supposedly a super-secret Indica hybrid called G 13. Not much is known about how it came about. Some urban legends say it was formulated by the CIA and FBI from some of the most powerful strains of marijuana known to man. Who knows if that's true, but the reviews on Leafly are overwhelmingly positive. I'd be lying if I said I wasn't excited to try it out! Thank goodness I don't have to get up early in the morning - just in case!
