Post Emerald City Comic Con Thinking

Good Evening, World!!! The last couple of days I have been thinking about a couple of things regarding attending Emerald City Comic Con (ECCC) as well as attending past conferences and other types of conventions. The things that I have thinking about regarding attending Emerald City Comic Con (ECCC) as well as attending conferences and other types of conventions is regarding how much I eat, what I eat and the amount of water I drink. I bring this up as for me I either don’t drink enough water to stay hydrated and don’t eat very well, or I drink enough water and eat pretty healthy. When I end up not staying hydrated, I tend to hold my bladder and end up with a bladder infection which is similar to not eating very well, I end up constipated which is almost as uncomfortable as having a bladder infection. Then there are conventions and conferences such as this past ECCC that I drank plenty of water to stay hydrated and ate healthy as well as regularly which helped a great deal with not being constipated. I know this is a weird thing to think about but with recent health issues I think I am going make more an effort to be more aware of my hydration and eating habits when I attend such events.

I do not have anything else to discuss or share or to write about in this particular blog post except to say it is now time to cuddle with my cat, Billie. I do want to thank you the reader for reading my blog. It is greatly appreciated from my end of things that you the reader, read my blog. If it was not for you the reader, reading my blog I would not be continuing to write my blog. Again, thank you from the bottom of my heart for reading my blog. Peace Out, World!!!

Lunch Time Ramblings

Good Afternoon, World!!! I really didn’t have anything to worry about regarding pay. Yes, my vacation time is gone as of this Thursday, and I had to use my personal holiday and most of my vacation time for missing last week due to health issues, at least I get to attend the first day of Emerald City Comic Con. I’m just relieved I get paid for last week and this Thursday and that everything worked out in my favor.

I’m also excited about tomorrow as I start co-facilitating a group. Specifically, I will be co-facilitating a CBTp group. I am not able to be the main facilitator due to the fact that I do have the degree or licensure to do so, and I am okay with that as I am able to bring the peer perspective to the clients I help. I will be co-facilitating with a colleague on my team as well as another colleague who works on a different team. I am really looking forward doing this group.

I do not have anything else to discuss or share or to write about in this particular blog post except to say it is now time to go get my lunch and eat it. I do want to thank you the reader for reading my blog. It is greatly appreciated from my end of things that you the reader, read my blog. If it was not for you the reader, reading my blog I would not be continuing to write my blog. Again, thank you from the bottom of my heart for reading my blog. Peace Out, World!!!

Ghostbusters Come to Seattle with Pictures to Prove It – Now I think it’s time to go Ghost Hunting with Friends

Good Evening, World!!! Right after I got off work, I took a Lyft to the pharmacy to pick up my medication which I just normally call my meds. Anyway, as I was walking home from the pharmacy, I saw this white SUV turned into the Ghostbuster’s car. I asked the nice man smoking a cigar if I could take a picture and he said “yes as long as you post somewhere on whatever social media shit you do. I want you to create a ghost hunt with your friends if you think it would be fun.” I told the nice man that I can get one going if not tonight it will be tomorrow night. He was pleased with the answer

The nice man smoking a cigar allowed me to take a picture of his Ghostbuster’s Car

So, I’m inviting two my friends in recovery, my best friend from high school, my partner and three colleagues from my work team. Everyone like the idea and will be ghost hunting tonight just for the fun of it. After doing some ghost hunting we will go get some food from Red Robin. I’m just glad my community like this idea and want to go with me. This going to be a fun night.

I do not have anything else to discuss or share or to write about in this particular blog post except that I can’t wait to tell you how the ghosts hunt went. I do want to thank you the reader for reading my blog. It is greatly appreciated from my end of things that you the reader, read my blog. If it was not for you the reader, reading my blog I would not be continuing to write my blog. Again, thank you from the bottom of my heart for reading my blog. Peace Out, World!!!

Weekly Check-In

Good Evening, World!!! It is Saturday evening and that means it is that time of week to do my weekly check-in. Yes, it has been quite a while since I have done a weekly check-in. I am hoping to do my weekly check-ins as well as my weekly plans on the more regular basis.

This past week was the 4th of July which is Independence Day here in the United States. In fact, Independence Day was yesterday. I celebrated with some friends. We had plenty of fun, food and enjoyed the fireworks over Lake Union from a friend’s backyard. I enjoyed myself and I’m glad I went.

This past week was a good week at work. Hell, even when there are not so good moments or days at work, I still enjoy my new job. I love my job. I really enjoy my new job, and I am beyond grateful for it. The best part it is part time, and I get full medical benefits, and I greatly appreciate that I receive full medical benefits.

I do not have anything else to discuss or share or to write about in this particular blog post. I do want to thank you the reader for reading my blog. It is greatly appreciated from my end of things that you the reader, read my blog. If it was not for you the reader, reading my blog I would not be continuing to write my blog.

Happy 4th of July

Good Evening, World and Happy 4th of July to all Americans around the world!!! It is a beautiful Independance Day here in Seattle with sunny weather. I am currently at a friend’s house celebrating the 4th of July with my friend group. We have had plenty of food all day and continue have food flowing till it is time to watch the fireworks later tonight from my friend’s backyard. I am looking forward to watching the fireworks from my friend’s backyard. I’m glad to be having fun with friends yet I am missing my cat, Billie.

Sadly, people who live in my apartment complex have been setting off fireworks which means I had to give my cat, Billie some anxiety meds before I left. I am paying a neighbor to check on Billie every two hours and to continue to give him a dose of his anxiety meds every four hours as his veterinarian suggested. I am glad my neighbor is willing to do this for me and Billie. I feel like paying my neighbor fifty dollars to take care of Billie is well worth peace of mind and making sure he is comfortable when I am not home when there is the scary noise of fireworks.

It is greatly appreciated from my end of things that you the reader, read my blog. If it was not for you the reader, reading my blog I would not be continuing to write my blog.
