Good lung function test times today. The nurse was very nice and friendly and disarming. She was laughing at it all and explaining it. And then I blew. I blew so hard.
And the result?
I aced another test. I was 2% off the norm. And my second go, after getting some medication, was the same. So that means I don’t have the ashtma, presumably. I am not sure if the fact that my lung function tested pretty much normal means that the little area of lung tissue that the xrays showed had collapsed are not important. I guess it’s not affecting my lung function? Well I’ll go in and talk to the doc about it next week. But I’m not sure there’s anything else they’ll want to do now. Since I’m passing all the tests. Still seems to me that hte likely answer is I had some kind of mild pneumonia or corona and now I just gotta work my way back to normal. I still feel like I get more out of breath than normal when I do stuff, but it’s not too bad anymore really. Hopefully gradually increasing my exercise bike will get me in better shape and that’ll be enough. We’ll see what the doc says. It’s been a weird couple of months. Thanks all for listening and caring.
Now, I’m going to put another pot of soup on the stove and I’m going to burn my mouth with it while watching the Soup episode of Seinfeld. The universe aligned and I got to that episode right as I got the soup. Good timing.

That’st he last of the soup gone. It’s always a dilemma with the leftover soup. Should I take smaller servings and make it last longer, or just big potfuls so it’s gone quicker.
Can you guess what I do?
Yeah, I have no impulse control or restraint. I fill up a whole pot that could feed a whole family and just eat it by myself. And tha’s how you go through all that soup in three days. Still, no regrets. Burnt mouth and bloated belly. That’s whow I roll. Live in the moment. And then cry when the soup’s gone.

I had a really cool dream, it was a long and involved Lost-like scifi adventure thing. I don’t really remember much of it now, but I remember that I met and got to salute major Garland Briggs. From Twin Peaks. Either it was him or it was the actor who played him, Don S. Davis. I’m not sure if I met the actor or the character. I just remember that I was so honored that I got to give him a salute. I guess that makes it more likely that it was the character I met, saluting a major would make more sense than saluting an actor. Although I would have totally saluted Don S. Davis if i’d met him when he was alive.

Good goat time today. Got out and goated, good. The weather wasn’t the best. Cold and windy and it rained on and off all the time. My new jacket is warm and snuggly, but I discovered today that it is not wind resistant. Felt like the cold wind went right though it. Even with a blouse and shirt underneath, it was still too cold when I was out in the wind. I guess it’s time to permanently switch to my winter coat soon.
But it was good when I was out of the wind. Lots of time in the goat house and the shelter. Snuggles and treats. Lapgoat time with Sky, while Milo ran interference to make sure I didn’t record any good video. He’s lucky it was too cold to take my jacket off or I’d have spooked him away with it! Rascals. But it’s always the best time when I’m there. Now I just need spring to come.

Twice in the last few days, once at the doctor’s office and once in the supermarket, I have walked right into some furniture or shelf. It’s fun when your social phobia gets you in such a panic state that you forget you’re almost blind and have to look where you’re walking.
Nothing harmed other than my pride, though.
