Figured it's my throat all       tore up from smoking weed (yeah I know, worst mistake of 2020) but I laid off       when I ran out Saturday. Spent 2 hours no energy unable to get out of bed.       After my hike to the top        of a 2500 foot peak. Which I do almost every day when I can.        > > >        > > > But I always feel so weird and off inside and not really sure what's       just deep depression, the weed or no weed or just I don't even know what's       supposed to feel like what. Plenty of times the last year where I just started       feeling "off" and started        to wonder.        > > >        > > > My friend is urging me to get a Covid test immediately.        > > >        > > > I told him it costs too much around here and I don't really GAF at the       moment.        > > >        > > > He sent me a link to some free ones.        > > >        > > > The quandary is this.        > > >        > > > It would require a bus or Uber trip.

I did       almost everything right except my relentless and sometimes successful pursuit       of female companionship.

Kinda ready to say fuck it but also I am getting hungry and running out       of food.               More importantly, how do you feel today?              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
