Thursday Post 384b

 Heylo again, good evening and potentially one final greeting for Thursday! Em's potential final, final plodding total for tonight now stands @ 3646. Ha, I'm over 3.5 grand. XD Righteo, potential final, final events for Thursday?

• When Carina arrived, she gave me my fifteen more minutes before I used the pot :P for one more tinkle, we got me kitted and I went over to the bathroom and brushed teeth. Thanks to Carina who squirted some toothpaste for me; Ela enjoyed her first official breal although technically she got a break last night too since I obediently got myself off to bed @ 9:45pm but PIG mum was busy upstairs doing sth. Teeth brushed, I sit over the loo for only one tinkle, coming out when I realise I feel like doing a stinky unspeakable.
• Breakfast is half a bowl of gluggy plain porridge with one slice of toast smeared with avocado and sprinkled with salt (meaning Karina did it, not PIG mum since I could actually taste some salt XD), all my usual drugs :P and one full mug of water. Over breakfast, I spent another ten minutes continuing my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me get through today okay. I find it's exceedingly important to constantly remind the cruel and unfaithful God that He has no bearing  on  my good day whatsoever, that I am perfectly capable of having a good day without Him, despite Him and apart from Him, because my good day's dependent on my own good attitude. If only God would remember that ... *sigh* He created the phrase 'live and let live', so why the heck can't He lemme live the free, independent life that I deserve? Okay, fair enough, we all only deserve death because of Him, but why can't He just lemme live the life that nearly everyone else gets to live?? *sigh*
• After breakfast, I sit over the loo once more. There, I do a stinky unspeakable, also leaning fully against the side rail and spend minutes finishing my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel. Remember, however the cruel and unfaithful God tries to make my day bad for me, I won't let that affect me because my good day has NOTHING to do with Him; I'm perfectly capable of having a good day without Him, despite Him and apart from Him. See, my good day's dependent on my own good attitude!
• After washing and drying Era, I climb into Carina's car and she tootles me off to Sunnybank Hills Shoppingtown! Finding parking outside level two, I use the loo for one tinkle and then grab Lian Hearn's Orphan Warriors and happily read for about one hour, finishing page twenty-five @ 10:08am, reaching page thirty-three @ 10:19pm and reaching page fifty @ 10:48pm.
• After posting an update onto Facebook, I use the loo for one more tinkle and then we grab a trolley to start buying groceries @ Woolies. Caitlin's not manning the self-serve checkouts; I ask the checkout chic who is has she gone on lunch break? No, she's so sick she's taken the entire WEEK off! o_O
• Our last stop before lunch was Coles for more groceries. 
• Today we met Pastor Grace and Reverend Chris for lunch @ Yum Cha And Co! Why I was disappointed: the coffee milk tea wasn't HK-style and the fried chicken rice was crispy skin chicken, not Korean style fried chicken! But catching up with them's always nice~
• After getting home, I turn off the alarm and then take a nice hot shower - hairwash today. Also thanks to Karina who helps me rinse my hair out, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
• I had one tinkle before Karina flipped the nice hot water off, got dried, got creamed and had another tinkle. When Karina rekitted me, I had one more tinkle when she was doing Elf's AFO straps and one last when she was giving Wally back to Ela.
• Back outside, I plopped online while Carina cleaned the bathroom then sat and gently massaged Ela  until 4pm, when I signed her off with my thanks and byes. She's back again next Thursday and taking me shopping again~
• For arvo tea I let PIG mum nab half my sausage bun for arvo tea and she gave me one mug of some infusion. Then I smuggled my mobile into the toilet and played Candy-Crush-type games for the full five tinkles before returning online.
• Looking forward to watching the 6pm news bulletin (Nine's) for the 106TH time!
• Even better, it's ice cream night tonight; like I say every week, a very little's better than none @ all!
• Toms: Neisha's helping me up @ 9am; PIG mum's sending us walking @ some shopping centre.
• She'll see me showered and fed with lunch before leaving @ 1pm; PIG mum's found Tiff the OT to come gimme a session in the arvo. Looking forward to spending my most important two hours of the day online and fingers crossed I'll get to read for one hour but may haveta let PIG mum gleefully force poor Ela to feed me some fruit for arvo tea. *sigh*
• Righteo, hopefully bbl after dinner, else wishing everyone a smashing end to the week toms!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^
