Day 6

Rest day.

Things feel insulated, like the part of me that's most injured is sitting in a pillow. Thank damned god.

For the last few days I've been wanting to extend our daily walk an extra block. Carrie's been down with that, happily.

Tonight I went out and looked at the night sky. Drank a little bit of marijuana tincture, but not enough to really mess with my perception.

Day 7

Dose three.
2:30 PM ~0.1g, 1/8 ts -- decided against upping the dose. Cleaning house, and concerned about our neighbor who has disappeared. Her landlord just left a note on the door.
3:02 Pretty swift mood shift for the better. A little warmth in the chest, but no anxiety. I think it helps a lot to be home rather than work. And I think moving around (as I'm doing w/ cleaning) is a big benefit to avoiding some of the edginess that can happen. I'm enjoying feeling the wind from the fan blow on me. I was enjoying hearing the tinkling of the water in the swamp cooler. Feeling okay.
3:30 I think we're gonna go bop the ball around a little bit at the tennis court if no one's already there.
4:15 That was extremely fun. We have no idea what we are doing, but we bought these stupid racquets like 15 years ago and never used them. Carrie and I met in gym class and flirted a lot during the tennis section, so it brings back good memories. I worked up a sweat, feels good. Gonna take a shower pretty soon, but maybe I'll get a hair cut first.
Vision is a little bit weird right now, like light burning into my retinas a bit, and lingering in my field of vision. I guess that's normal, just seems weird. ha ha.
5:23 Feeling basically pretty good. This has been a good day. The main effects of the medicine should start to wear off in half an hour or so if the timing remains the same as it has been doing.
8:05 We went to the brewery to eat at the food truck as we do sometimes. I ended up chatting with a town councilperson and the two owners of the brewery for a while, discussing the town's very good decision to finally get CDOT to install rapid flashing crosswalk hardware, something I've been advocating and griping about for YEARS. I thanked the city councilperson and we all ended up chatting for a good while. Chatting with people at the brewery is, heh heh, NOT NOT NOT something I normally do. So... ? Like is this circumstantial to being happy about the crosswalk situation or that plus the effects of this medicine? I don't know. Anyway, I'm in a pretty good mood still.
10:50 I'd have to say the liklihood of a really good day on dose day seems to be higher than the following two days from my experience.
11:17 Very concerned about the disappeared neighbor though.
