While yesterday was pretty good, today was a little rougher.

Starting with a very tired morning. And feeling sad for myself. A familiar feeling.

Yesterday I casually mentioned something about a computer course. Today it became reality. My boss, Sanne, was on the phone with my social worker. And he agreed to pay for it. Bless him. So I am now enrolled in a 2 day Adobe PhotoShop advanced course. Starting tomorrow. Yup, suddenly it all went very fast. The main point of it is to see if I can manage that sort of education situation again. The point in the long run is for me to get more education, so this is sort of a test to see if I’m ready for that maybe. Wednesday and Thursday, 9-15.30.

I don’t think it’ll be too bad. I’ll probably get nervous tomorrow morning, but I can do it. Sanne has been to a couple of courses the same place. PC Gruppen. The PC Group. She says it’s a nice place. And it’s a very small group. Only five other people, as far as I understood. So I don’t really think the social phobia will be a big problem. I think it will be harder physically. I’ll have to get up earlier and stay longer. And my back is hurting. I wasted about an hour and half running around downtown today. First I was trying to get tickets for a Tina Dickow concert. Turns out there was faulty information on the venue’s website, no tickets. Great. And then I had to go pick up a package at the post office. With 30 minutes till the next bus I decided to do some shopping in Kvickly too. Unfortunately they felt that they only had to open two cash registers so there were huge queues and I ended up missing my bus.

Don’t you just hate missing your bus by 30 seconds? You’re running towards the bus stop and then you see the bus turning the corner in the distance. And you wonder why the darn bus couldn’t be 2 minutes late THIS time? It’s always late when I’m on time.

So I decided to walk home. Carrying my groceries. Not too far. It took me 25 minutes or so. But that was enough to put my back out. I should have waited for the next bus. Oh well. I hope my back won’t be too bad tomorrow. I don’t want to sit all day with a back full of pain. I have borrowed some kind of heating pillow from my mother. It seemed to have helped actually. You strap it around your back and it warms the muscles or something. But I’ll see how I feel tomorrow. I have to go in any case.

So waste of time, no tickets, hurting back, a little anxiety about tomorrow. Not althogether grand. But oh well. I’ll be okay. And I’m sure the course will go fine. And everything will be wonderful.

I just heard on the local news that they had promised snow storm tomorrow, but that it has been revoked. Bummer. I didn’t even know we were going to have snow storm, and now it’s canceled. But there’s still a good deal of snow outside and I appreciate that with all my cold, cold heart.
