Yesterday, I played Magic at Maik's. It was ok. I won one game and lost the rest. I go there more to see my friends than to play a game. We had Lebanese food for dinner and they invited me to a birthday celebration on Saturday for Andrew and Sam. I think I will go.

Today, Amadeo was upset with me because I haven't been calling him in the morning, but I called him today. I just have been feeling so depressed. I showered, shaved, and clean my teeth. Later, after drying off, I put in earplugs, got dressed, then headed outside. I took the street car to my therapy session with Courtney Olds, because my bike tire went flat AGAIN. This was my last session with her, since I cannot afford to pay for

any more sessions. It went very well, and she said she will give Anya things to work on with me. Courtney is so nice! :) I see Anya on Monday at 12:00 at last! Therapy has been great with Courtney, but it will be nice to have Anya back again. She is so understanding and helpful, and in her own words, "directive". haha. I will feel safe and sound with Anya there for me again. I can't wait until Monday.

Anyway, I used my day pass once more to bus it over to CC's to post this blog. Sam invited me to Kyle's to play Magic, but I declined. I am burnt out on MTG, plus my bike tire is flat. Later on, I will bus it back home and go to bed. If it rains, I am prepared with my umbrella, the cover from the bus stop, and the bus itself. I will do my best to stay dry! :P

I am on a lower dose of Abilify now (2.5 mg), so I don't feel jittery, but I feel slower and more depressed. I think I am at a happy medium now, however. I can manage with this, at least for now.

I didn't get to post yesterday because my bike tire was flat, but I got it fixed. Yesterday, Caitlin took me to my psychiatrist appointment and he lowered my dose of Abilify from 7.5mg to 5mg. We will see how that works and I come back in 8 weeks to see him again. 

Today, Caitlin brought me to my interview with Tivoli place apartments. I didn't have a valid ID, so I was rescheduled to come back on August 7th. Bummer. We went to the DMV and it turns out I have no insurance on my car, and a $250 fee for not paying it, AND I can't get my license now. DOUBLE bummer. Next week, we will try to get a state ID since I can't get my license. 

When I got home, I warmed up some spaghetti and ate. I also took my bird cages out to wash them. After that, I came to CC's to post my blog. Amadeo called me to see how I was doing and now here we are.

I feel like shit and don't feel like doing anything, but at the same time, I can't stand doing nothing. I hate feeling like this. I am going to chat with Dyanis later and then when I leave here, I will go home, bring my birds in, and get ready for bed.

This morning, I woke up and Randy cooked bacon and eggs for breakfast. Right now, the kids are playing and Mom and Tia are watching TV. I leave for the bus station at 4:00pm today. I am sad I didn't get to stay longer, say another night, but this is the best time to take the bus. Any later, and I would be late for my appointment tomorrow. It was a nice visit and I hope to come here again sometime. I might go walking or riding the bike around the neighborhood later.

This is day 2 off of Abilify. I helped Amadeo clear and clean his truck this morning, then he paid me $20. We took all the stuff out of his truck, put it in the apartment, and then vacuumed and washed the Envoy. We ran a few errands before going to Golden Corral for lunch at about 2:30 or 3:00. Sadik, Farita, Tia, and David's kids were there and they paid for our meal. It was delicious. Afterwards, we hit the road and headed to Lafayette. I am here with Mom, Randy, and everybody and I am finally home! :) I hope the trip goes well and nothing bad happens with family drama.

I went to Dollar General for a few things this morning. I also walked to and from City Park. Not much else went on today. Later, I am going to help Amadeo organize his truck and he invited me to go to Lafayette with him, David, and the kids. It will be a tight fit in one vehicle, but I seriously want to go to Lafayette.

Today, I got up and showered. At 2:45, I went to therapy and got caught in the rain on the way there and back. I got soaked. Later, I went home and Dawn came home. Amadeo came home too and then they went to get their hair cut. Right now, I am posting this blog at CC's. After this, I will go home and go to bed.

This morning, I went to Dollar General to buy some cat food. Later, I took my birds outside, took them back in because of thunder, and then ate lunch. Now I am here at CC's posting the blog. It's Magic night tonight at Maik's, so I will be going there.
