Day 285 of San Diego

I visited my doctor today. I had a pelvic exam. Turns out, I have another infection... It's... uhh... "downstairs"... if you catch my drift. Once more, my doctor prescribed me with an anecdote. It'll only last a week. For my antibiotics, I have - I think - a week and a half left. My body is already sick of waking up at midnight to pop a pill. Yet I won't complain! Annihilating my intestinal infection is more important. Solid sleep can wait.

School was cool. But the coolest part of the day was when I woke up.

No... I despise waking up at six. That wasn't the cool part.

The cool part was waking up to the thunderous sound of pouring rain. I thought I was listening to a giant fan; the kind they use in movies to create stormy weather. You know how you wake up and you're still somewhat asleep and you can't comprehend your surroundings and the sounds until several seconds later? That was me... Believing my parents planted a fan in my room and turned it on High for the Hell of it. Nice work, brain.

For school, I had a Math quiz. Yet I was able to get assistance from the teacher AND the students. It was a little fun, actually. I asked tons of questions to the peers sitting closest to me. We figured out problems our minds couldn't understand. We double checked our answers. I'm pretty positive I passed.

ENGL was decent. We wrote some more.We also discussed our first project.

Over the weekend, the folks and I are doing a yard sale. We are cleaning house! I designed a few signs to post around the neighborhood. I'm hoping we sell most of our crap. We don't need it anymore. We don't need it collecting dust. If it's slow, I'll play Destiny with Mason. He's a bit bummed that I don't want to play tonight... I'll try my hardest to make it up for him tomorrow or sometime during the weekend!

Call of the Wild

A lioness roars a warning to her cubs in Kenya’s Masai Mara National Reserve. “She was perched on a hill right on the side of the dirt road,” writes Your Shot member Linda Porter, who captured the picture on an evening game drive. On an opposite hill were three young male lions, which sometimes kill cubs. “Our guide knew this lioness had three young cubs that were were out of sight and hidden. We observed her for over an hour as she continued to call out to her cubs, warning them of the potential danger that lurked across the way. Unlike most of our children, these cubs were extremely obedient and remained hidden.”
