Battery failure mode--because failing battery could be taken too many wrong ways

RantWoman does not remember when she went to bed. Maybe sometime after 1. RantWoman does not think she slept for the first spell, but when she got up to decide not to try to sleep anymore it was 3 almost 3:30 am. Cat did not get fed even though she was certain it was time. RantWoman also spent time deciding whether tightness in chest was a sign she should get medical attention. RantWoman apparently was too tired to do more than doze in covered in warm things, slept another spell, woke up fed the cat and decided to try sleeping in bed again. This was maybe 5 and RantWoman slept until like 9:30. So solid 4.5 hours and less solid 2 more +

Note to self: take cellulitis issue seriously. Two people advised calling clinic and seeing if they can send a antibiotic prescription to the pharmacy.

RantWoman's device failure mode of the day: both talking book player and cellphone have dying battery issues. The talking book player can probably just stay plugged into the wall though an extension cord would not be terrible. The phone just needs to get recharged many times / day.

Other than that, Ground Control to Major Tom, even with lots of interesting people to talk to an all-phone existence is tiresome.

Holy Cow. Almost 9 hours of sleep. The extravagant luxury of going back to bed and not even trying to do anything after 5.9 hours of sleep. Going to bed at a reasonable hour because of not wanting to compute in the computer lab with no AC helped.  I decided I needed to get up and eat a real breakfast after a dream involving my certainty that I needed to take a shower in a tiny restroom near a big event of some kind and then enjoying a lot of food that I found tasty and it was not clear whether others realized it was available. I probably can go all kinds of places with that. Computer lab has AC. Room where digital equity team works does not. There is some kind of switching mystery that not even one of the very wise SHA HVAC experts can solve. Nice to see the computer lab space in use. And for exercise I will ride under desk bike to nowhere for awhile at an hour too late to be a good idea. Also I MUST scrub floor and wrangle refrigerator life forms. Count how many days I say that be...

About six hours of sleep. I should have gone back to bed. CPAP is a little bit of a workout but I think that will settle down. Mom's tree after all the presents were unwrapped Christmas with the fam went brilliantly.  First there was a chauffeur schedule that left me time to talk to Mom about latest non-locating of my brother while nephew fetched his parents. We did snack food and did not even attempt anything complex in Mom's "one-butt kitchen" Little Sister brought Little Smokies, one pan in a sauce I did not expect to tolerate made of commercial BBQ sauce and grape jelly. Little sister brought rolls and fruit salad. I brought crackers, cream cheese, beet chips and celery the latter of which I think I was the only one eating. So the rest of the bunch gets sauted and frozen for soup.  I brought yams to microwave if anyone wanted but kitchen logistics clobbered that. And we finished with mandarins and no one even wanted cookies and ice cream. Mostly I am SO GLAD Mom d...
