It’s so damn dry here that my brush crackles with static when I run it through my hair.

Anyway, I don’t know why, but after going for a walk with Tom and mixing in some jogging which didn’t help my hip pain at all, I came back and found myself getting very sleepy. It was almost as if the sun was oozing sedatives. I ended up lying down for 90 minutes and slept for 60 of it, according to Fitbit.

At least Fitbit is now counting my active minutes again. I’d say 35 active minutes is enough for today even though I don’t expect to get 10K steps, thanks to the pain I’m in right now. It got bad enough for Ibuprofen. Still no idea what it is but it’s either a muscle, tendon, or ligament since I don’t see what else it could be.

It was a great day for a walk. It would have been too warm if it was slightly warmer and too chilly had it been breezy.

Tom got his flu shot today and fortunately, he hasn’t had any more dizzy spells. He’s eating smaller quantities more often and that seems to help. He may be pre-diabetic.

The PlusWhite tooth-whitening stuff really works! I’m amazed. No more strips for me. I love it! I just dab it on, wait 5 minutes, and there’s a noticeable difference. I haven’t used whitening strips in a while and noticed my teeth were getting discolored again, so I thought it was a good time to try it but wasn’t sure I would like it. Well, I’m definitely sold!

I looked up Jamberry Nails and I guess they’re not all nail strips that you simply stick on. Some of them require heat and a lot more time and work, but that’s okay. I can use my portable heater or a blow dryer.

In watching a tutorial comparing Jamberry to Color Street, I realize I’m being rather wasteful with some of my nail strips. I could cut some of them in half and get two uses out of them, especially since I don’t let my nails grow really long since that makes them such a pain in the ass. The ones with the wider ends wouldn’t be good for splitting but those that are the same width on both ends would be.

I was going to ditch the Twitter account I’m not connected with any friends on but then decided to just let it sit there and turn it into a voice account once Android gets the voice tweet feature Twitter says will be available next year. I’ll probably do a mix of text and voice on my other account but the idea is to have a place where I can tweet the highlights of my life with my voice so that if anything were to ever happen where I couldn’t write so easily, I can just talk. There’s a lot more to writing than just writing. There’s editing too. Well, there’s no editing with my voice, of course.
