my body is getting tired, am i getting old mama?
Yesterday was a weird day for me. I was incredibly busy at work (which is very common) but it seems like my body is protesting and wearing out. In the morning I managed to spray my left eye with hairspray while I was trying to do my hair in the morning and while I had my contact lenses on. I tell you there is nobody else as devoted to hairstyling as I am. I mean I had the most styled eyelashes around here! Joking aside, it hurt like a bitch and my eye was dry the whole day.
As if that wasn’t enough I got my hair cut the day before yesterday (well, I did make a note of it if you remember) and now I look so much different I hardly recognise myself. The other odd thing is that my hair looks even lighter now! Remember how I was saying that my hair is changing colour? Well it must be! It doesn’t look bad at all though. I like it although I’m not used to seeing myself with brown hair (I think it may be going blonde…eek).
Anyways, back to yesterday. When I got home after work I was feeling so tired that I figured I’d take a nap. I was on the sofa at the time so taking a nap on one of my new leather sofas seemed the right thing to do. I woke up with a headache though because I slept in a funny position… It was around 8 so I made me something quick to eat and headed out for a drink with my friend Dave. That was yesterday.
Today I woke up more tired than ever. I could not get out of bed in the morning. That’s probably because I didn’t sleep until around 1am and I really need my beauty sleep if you know what I mean. Sometimes if I am rrrrrreally tired, or haven’t slept much I can sleep for 24+ hours straight.
It’s a good thing that there’s a Starbucks on the way to work. I grabbed my usual venti Caramel Macchiato and I’m now in a great mood and working superfast. I don’t feel tired at all! As I’m writing this I’ve started sipping on my second vendi Caramel Macchiato so I think I might be twitching by the end of the day but we all have to make sacrifices sometimes right?
Back to talking about my hair now. I have decided to grow it a bit longer than I usually have it so now that it’s a bit longer on the back and sides it has started to do some weird curling in places. It is normal especially in the back where the hair touches my neck but I really don’t like it. So today I went and bought me some hair straighteners. Yes I did! Me, the guy that always found it wrong for guys to be using these kind of things. I think I may be going ultra-gay but on the other hand this may just mean I’m a sucker for a bargain as they were really cheap. The problem now is that I never used any before and I am afraid I’ll either burn my skin or hands or my hair. I wish I had thought this through…
Good news is that my stomach is completely fine. I haven’t felt anything since yesterday, when I woke up from my nap. However, if I feel the slightest thing I’m going to go straight to a doctor. And by the way thanks “me” (aka anonymous lurker who has been commenting here recently) for your advice. I wish you would use a proper nickname because “me” confuses me (you know, I think I posted your comments) but I am not complaining since I like getting comments from everyone, so again, thanks.
P.S.: You can use your real e-mail if you want. I am not going to sell it or use it for any other reason but to reply to your comment (if I need to).

Commented on August 31st, 2006 at 4:37 pmI was trying to figure out if there was something weird with me, I’m clumsy, you know not coordinated, I never was. As far as I can remember, when I was just a wee thing, I did not have fine motor skills, my mother never said anything….. Then when I could clearly remember was when I walked into a very cleaned window and well you guessed what happened right. Then it was everytime I went to my room it was at the end of the corridor and you immediately had to make a right, I would walk into the door…… Then it was trying to get on the horse that never worked either…… I got on after twenty tries and went on backwards, held on for my dear life when the horse got spoofed and I trying to hand on except by then I was hanging under the horse. Then it was spilled coffee, always a trail from my cubicle at work to the coffee maker….. then it was walking and not correctly eying the depth of the sidewalk and splat on the pavement, with daugther and husband finding it very funny. The walks in the middle of the winter and off I would go…..down on my knees…… spilling milk because I miss the cup…… I can never retain anything names, faces I’m always talking to myself have been ever since I can remember. The funny thing is I’m bright and ambitious and have some intelligence….. then tell me what the hell is wrong with me…….. At one point I was looking at a series and they said people who are very clumsy like me could have attention deficite yeah and they can treat them with the same medication they use on ADHD kids. Problem I have is no doctor seem to think so! I’m nearing 50 and would like to have it resolve or will this be allways. Can someone enlightenend me….

I haven’t seen a doctor yet because I don’t really believe I have any of those things and even if I did, having a doctor tell me so would only make me feel bad. I don’t believe in medication (at least not yet) when it comes to treating things other colds. I hope things get better for you.
