11:20 Friday night: And dayum!
Here I thought this vicious ailment was getting a little better…but ohhhhh no! It’s back with a burning, tingling, hurting vengeance.
LOL! Do not annoy the Gods of Pain, whatever ya do!
Seriously, by evening I (stupidly) did think it was slacking off. Getting a little better. Becoming tolerable. Har har har!
Not. So. Much.
Sure am tired of hurting. Wish this thing would go away…or I would go away. Whichever is necessary to make it stop.
The little dawg turned out of the sack a little early for her wee-hours perambulation of the backyard. It’s only about 11:30. She usually lasts till 4:00 a.m., give or take.
Because the ‘Hood is infested with coyotes — any one of whom would enjoy a delicious 20-pound dog as a midnight snack — I have to go outside with her and stand around until she does her Thing. Then lure her back into the house. That’s not a terrible thing to have to do, really. One could do without the background music of constant ear-whistling. But ten minutes or so in the backyard of a pleasant night….that’s OK enough. I guess.
Ugh! Still wonder what those two officious social workers — ostensibly from the State of Arizona — wanted when they descended on me. And still marvel at the incredible luck that Luz the Wonder-Cleaning-Lady happened to have visited early enough to have shoveled out the pig-pen before the nuisance women showed up. That was a bizarre visitation — from the two officials, that is. What the Hell were those to up to?
Whatever it was…wasn’t good, of that you can be pretty sure.

That dose of ibuprofen I dropped seems to have helped a little. Let us try to get back to sleep!
