Skudd's Grumps

Even my chest is twitching now, but only on the left side.

This neurologist I used to see is a complete waste of my time. I sent him a message on the patient portal almost a month ago, and I haven't even received an acknowledgement or request for clarification. In trying to send another message, I was signed out and my message was lost. I am in so much pain right now and typing is hard, so I really don't want to have to go through that all again. And trying to recover the message from the browser history fails because I am forced to authenticate again and the cached POST payload is encrypted.

Cramp fasciculation syndrome

Headache.

My hands smell like fried chicken and I can't get away to wash them.

APHASIA

I AM ON A MEETING AND MY PHONE WILL NOT STOP SENDING ME ALERTS FOR THINGS I KEEP DISMISSING

Why is my coffee cup consistently empty this morning?

It's cold in my office so I had to start up Minecraft.

Traffic was pretty decent on the way into the office, but it got REALLY STUPID the closer I got to downtown.

Seriously, what is it with all the chat platforms notifying me of new messages when I was the one who sent the most recent message?

I am getting so incredibly tired of this Aphasia. It's been morphing in ways that are so different all the time. Most recently, I can't handle complex thoughts. I can read words just fine, but trying to understand long messages or write code is completely lost on me at the moment.

Despite whatever I try, my body has decided that anything beyond 8 and a half hours of sleep is too much.

Parents: don’t let your kids have their electronic babysitters be so loud.

This headache.

People who can’t park properly.

It isn’t safe to drive in Houston during the week.

The CFA in the tunnel doesn't have CFA ice.

Traffic was stupid this morning.

The pinky finger on my right hand is a useless curled finger. It's starting to curl more as I age and is starting to get in the way of things. The most recent: Stray taps on the trackpad for work.

You know something isn't right when you see a roll of paper towels in the break room and get excited.

The "we can't automate that" mindset that so many people carry.

I forgot about the reflection from my office door. There's a lot more traffic on Memorial than I remember, and it's very distracting.

I just typed out an anagram of "this" by mistake.

My left wrist has joined the fascination party.

This cup of coffee tastes really burnt.

Freakin cramp fasciculation syndrome. My hands were cramping up this evening pretty hard, and now my foot and lower leg are twitching like crazy.

I get the whole “digital babysitter” aspect, but please turn it down!

Someone signed me up for Simon & Schuster emails.

ARGH. I DID IT AGAIN!
