That's a rant?

I went to bed at six and was up by nine. Promptly fell asleep for a further 90 minutes. I feel pretty tired.

How've you been recently? Have you been able to get out and get those tests?

Pretty terrible. For most of August I was managing to keep down a banana and some cucumber every day, but two weeks ago that stopped and I haven't really been able to eat at all since. Been through a whole bunch of tests, but all they're really doing is ruling out things yet not narrowing anything down. It doesn't help that some of the tests have a fairly high false negative rate, so you could have what was just tested for and it'll say you don't. At the very least, I can say: no leukemia, no colon cancer, no pancreatic failure, no gallbladder blockage, no liver failure, and no kidney failure. ETA: Oh, and no Crohn's.
This weekend I'm starting antibiotics that will indiscriminately destroy everything inside of me. The side effects are the exact same as my baseline symptoms and user reviews describe it as hell, so I'm pretty excited. I'm hoping that'll do it.

That reminds me of antidepressants that have a side effect of suicidal thoughts. (There's actually a reason for that, but I can't recall it off-hand.)

That's not great, but at least they've been able to rule out some of the more nasty stuff.
Put on a trenchcoat and highly conspicuous unfashionable hat and meet Bob Woodward in a parking lot?
It's good that they've ruled out those things.
As for these very strong antibiotics... did they test you for ulcers? It takes an aggressive course of antibiotics to straighten that out, and then you'd need to change to a less-acidic diet.
In the meantime, be grateful you're not female. I had to go on a yogurt diet at that time to deal with the side effects, not to mention other remedies.
And you'll want to avoid people as much as possible, like that moron of a roommate.
They probably hid it somewhere sneaky.
Could be either, but I can't find it anywhere in my account
.EDIT: The customer service confirmed that I must have done something with the express delivery
. But they immediately cancelled the subscription and I will get the money back, so that's very nice 
.Woke up a bit earlier this morning, and thought it would be nice to be a bit earlier at work.
Until I got on the bus. Then I thought differently. Still rush-hour time, it was packed, and one guy was pretty cleary and obviously coughing

So remember how I barely slept yesterday? Well today we had some workers to install a power charger for the new electric car. I thought this would not impact.my regular sleep schedule, so when I realised I had forgotten to dry the laundry at 1AM I thought it wasnt a problem. I ended up going to bed past 3, but I did not expect to be woken up.
My father had other plans.
He woke at like 7:30 to start work from home at 8. Sometime later, the workers arrived and, instead of putting in the charger, he told them to fix the runny toilet next to my room.
This needed doing, but it did not need doing at 8 AM. Not content with that, he walked into my room at 9 to tell me I need to go purchase the spare that is needed to fix the toilet.
It is 90 minutes later, I have given up on sleep, I am having breakfast, and he's not sorry for depriving me of precious sleep without warning, or of leaving the toilets inoperable for when I needed them, only that I have to go get that spare.
I swear to god.

Yeah, I feel like a piece of **** when I wake up past noon.
What's the big deal w Xanax (rap songs n kids reppin' it & such)? it just makes you sluggish w/ no ascertainable good effects. Good drugs exist, Xanax isn't one of them.

I don't remember the last time I slept in past noon. Latest I've slept in the past year was 10/11.
WRT Xanax, I think it has to do with the sadboi/Soundcloud rapper style. That's where all the emo kids went after My Chemical Romance and other bands got a bit much.
EDIT: Forgot my actual rant. Made Moroccan style spiced meatballs for dinner, but the grocery store was out of crushed tomatoes. I got diced thinking they will cook down. Didn't work out so the sauce was too watery to coat the meatballs and I got chunks of tomato in my rice. Boooo!

I feel like that every time I wake up. Might as well have a few more hours of sleep.

When I have incapacitating anxiety and cannot function, it relieves that feeling that immediate feeling of danger and I can function again.
I consider this “good.”
For me, it was Tuesday.

I have to take a dose of medication at noon so sleeping in past that doesn't usually happen.
