51/113: Shut Up
Jan. 6th, 2025 12:20 pmThe stuff going on with my neck is getting very annoying. Getting pains like cramps at least half a dozen times a day now. I suspect it's from something out of place, and I should probably make an appointment with a chiropractor, if I can get one. It's been over six years since I've had an adjustment. back then I didn't mind so much going out though, and over the last couple of years I've come to detest it. What was once merely an inconvenience is now an utterly exhausting chore. But I'm probably about to reach the point at which the neck pain is sufficiently worse than the going out pain that I'll endure the latter for relief from the former.
I think I'm also getting to the point where I'll tolerate the nightmare of online shopping again, as there is stuff I need. I need a pair of some sort of actual shoes, and I've seen to types advertised on the Idernet that might be adequate. One is called "Wide Comfort" and features Velcro flaps instead of laces, and the other has laces but shows a foot going into them without them being untied, which is pretty much what I need now that I've gotten so inflexible that I can't really reach shoes to tie them. I fear I might not be able to master the Velcro pads either, due to the inflexibility, so I'm sort of leaning toward the other style. I can't remember what they are called though.
I would also like to get one of those Japanese style kitchen knives I've seen, as I'm not doing too well with the conventional knives I now use. I don't know if the Japanese knife will actually make me less of a tomato butcher or prevent potato slices from sticking to the knife surface, but it might be worth a try if it isn't too expensive. I've seen them advertised for around thirty bucks or less, which would not be too bad, especially if it increases the odds that I'll get to keep all my fingers longer. I've heard that getting fingers reattached is very costly indeed.
There are a number of other items I could use, such as a few more of the hoodies like those I got from J. C. Penney not long ago. They are the most comfortable I've ever had, and the colors are not repulsive. They might be on clearance sale in the next month or so. I also want some tank tops that don't ride up. The only two I've got that I like were part of a closeout sale at Kohl's last year, and I don't know if they even make them anymore, but I'll be monitoring the web site to see if they turn up. A couple more pairs of the knitted pajama bottoms that have become my first choice for daily wear around the house would be nice too. They are another Kohl's item.
But I have no idea why I'm rambling on about shopping, which is almost as annoying a subject as it is an activity. Probably because I really have nothing of any actual importance to say. That almost certainly being the case, I should just shut the hell up. One of the last things I should want is to have this boring crap in writing so I can relive it someday by reading it. So, I'm going to shut the hell up, since that's surely the smartest thing I've said in this entire entry.
