Quarantine Shenanigans - Overdue Update
I didn't just up and abandon this, well, I sort of did. Mostly because life got real crazy and overwhelming for me and now I have too much time on my hands due to this LOVELY quarantine we are placed under due to COVID-19.
I'm not even sure where to begin. Maybe...back in January?
So I had my appointment for Testosterone as I think I had mentioned previously. Maybe I didn't, who knows. I got my prescription for it and on January 27th I had my first T shot. I've now been on T for 9 weeks, and there has been a lot of changes. Around my three month mark I'm going to be making a YouTube video that hosts the time between then and now and how things have changed starting from the videos on the day to my appointment, the news after, to my voice changes. I also had a top surgery consultation for this month on the 23rd but due to COVID, that has had to be rescheduled but I haven't been given a date yet, so who knows when that will happen. I also had to reschedule my three month T appointment so I don't know how that is going to go, and I will also need to reschedule my ENT appointment because we discovered that I also have hearing loss in my left ear. We kind of knew something was wrong but unsure what, which will more than likely lead to a surgery in my ear to see what is going on behind the ear drum, and that will total up to three surgeries in a year. Lets rewind on that. I'm not sure if I had previously mentioned my gallbladder removal, but that happened back in November. I had a hard time recovering from it, and turned out they didn't remove the hernia that was supposed to be removed originally before my gallbladder ever came into the picture so in January I had to have a secondary surgery to have that removed. I'm all better now, kind of. I still feel a tug here and there when I stretch or lay on my stomach but I'm sure around my belly button is extremely exhausted by the amount of cutting open and removal of everything.
I'm still in school but I have lost some of my determination and motivation for it, mostly because of life. This whole quarantine thing has put me being an introvert into a serious overwhelming state of being an introvert so it's taking it out on me. I'm sure that has something to do with it. I can't seem to manage the time between my school work and house work and that is definitely taking a toll on me. Not being able to get out and at least take my mind off things is driving me crazy, let alone being able to get fresh air. Walking to the mail box is just not enough. I try to go on walks so I don't sit and gain weight but it's always raining anymore it seems.
My girlfriend and I are supposed to be taking a trip to Arkansas in June to see my family and she can finally meet them, but with the way this whole COVID thing is going, who knows if that is even going to happen. At least for June, we are determined to go this year. We had to cancel my girlfriend's Washington D.C trip to see the Cherry Blossoms due to all this as well as our favorite con we go to, Sci-Fi Valley Con, has been postponed until August now. Everything is a mess and it's honestly getting to be a little depressive on how things are going. I love being inside because interactions with people isn't even in my nature to begin with, thus being an introvert, but this is a bit excessive for me and I do enjoy getting out so I can do things, even if it's window shopping or just walking around Walmart. I can't even do that now. Hopefully people begin to take this serious and we can all just get back to our normal lives.
I've also been pretty addicted to Animal Crossing: New Horizons lately. I had it on pre-order for my girlfriend for her birthday but then Amazon emailed me saying that it was going to be delayed so she went and bought it. We now have two copies. Makes it easier for the both of us to play together on each others islands. Plus, if we only had one copy I probably would never be able to play it because she is obsessed with it. Not going to lie, it is very addicting and as much as I love Animal Crossing, and while this still has some flaws, it's my favorite game of the series.
There hasn't really been too much more I've been doing in the last several months I've failed to blog. I will hopefully be able to start back on a daily or even weekly blog and I need to record and post more speed builds with The Sims 4 and do some more let's play videos on some games.
Till then...
