Woke up at a sensible time. I probably had about four hours of sleep.

Spent a lot of today in various meetings.

Not much as of yet. Just about to leave the house to do some shopping for certain items I am in need of.

This was yesterday, I swept all floors that could be swept (that's everywhere but the lounge room which has a large mat), washed the floor with boiling water (or close to) and tidied the kitchen. Kayleigh vacuumed the lounge room.

Then we had a visit from mental health services. I only need to see them once every 3 months as I am managing my mental health fairly well. It's Kayleigh who needs more help and so she will be seeing them again in 2 weeks.

Then we treated ourselves to Macca's.

Just about to set up a chlorine gas generator, so I can bubble the Cl2 gas through a sodium bromide solution and liberate the bromine, quicker than using the sulfuric acid method, and I have much more HCl than I do sulfuric  acid left at the moment, so I'll use that, dripping concentrated  hydrochloric acid from a large (150ml) glass syringe into a bottle rigged up for gas generation to oxidize the HCl to Cl2, the bottle filled with potassium permanganate, passing it through the NaBr to give Br2 and NaCl.

Then get to preparing my hydrobromic acid, to make my triphenylphosphonium bromide for some  30% HBr in anhydrous acetic acid.

Wished I could have taken QV shopping.

SO needed some shirts, the man is hell on clothes :P. Thrift store down the road is having "Thrifty Thursday's" now. All clothing is 75% off.

3 bags of shirts for .38 each.

Nice stuff... Izod, Abercrombie, Aero, American Eagle, Banana Republic....etc.

They are getting in tons of clothes.

Had a horrid conversation with my bosses. Apparently it is wrong to take a week off to support your family during a crisis.

Honestly, I have a cousin I want to sic on these assholes. She would make them cry and scream for their mamas. That Texas "girl"  (She is a RN and in her mid fifties; no one even thinks of fucking with her or hers!  Love that bad ass gal!! She is my younger cousin!) would shut them the fuck up in about three words.

Kind of miss my real life just now.

I have to report to work this week or I am done.

The end result of life's daily pain and suffering, trials and failures, tears and laughter, readings and listenings is an accumulation of wisdom in its purest form.

Started a methadone self-taper from my pain meds, to break the ball and chain (metaphorically speaking) that the doctors have forced  on me, that way I can take them only when I really can't avoid it, rather than forced to take them several times a day, every day.


Got several hundred tablets off...someone  helpful to whom I am most grateful...for less than a pound a piece, significantly less, who had them overnighted to me, to make sure I'd not withdraw from my regular pain meds that I get on prescription, and in fact, I got them when I woke up, right the moment I awoke, the delivery came, priority shipping thrown in free.

Still figuring out what the minimum and what the comfortable middle ground dosage is...I deliberately overshot it today, since whilst I have had  methadone 2-3 individual doses or so before, I've never had the chance to explore it fully, figured I'd go for 3-4 recreational doses just to explore it and feel it out a little, including a near  legendarily euphoric combination, IV methadone with IV cyclizine in the same syringe, said to very well replicate an almost extinct, again more or less legendary opioid, related to methadone, called  dipipanone, although its available, barely ever prescribed due to massive euphoric and abuse potential. I figure I'll try this combination once at least, while the opportunity is there, since  I have loads of cyclizine, scripted for my stomach issues. Then, get down to tapering after I've had my fun a couple of times.

I'm feeling better already actually, it feels a lot more 'functional' and less sedating and motivation-sapping than morphine/oxycodone mixture as I usually take on rx. Soon as  I get some space and time to myself, where nobody can walk into a cloud of  fumes or anything, I've got some chemistry work to do, and I'm going to go ahead and do it.

Actually went to the gym and spent a decent amount of time there. Now I'm hungry. Just fixed some tomato soup.
