Still struggling with a cough. It’s been over a month since I’ve got sick and my sleep schedule has gone on a roller coaster. I’ve taken 3 regiments of medicine from my lung doctor and it’s barely calmed down. I went Tuesday to ask for the third regiment. As far I can recall, this isn’t the first time I needed to try 3 rounds before something worked but sometimes I get paranoid my colds are getting better at dealing with the steroids and antibiotics but they don’t linger for long, since I’m not that special or interesting for something like that to happen. That also meant with a few exceptions, my writing is still on pause. I believe I’ll be able to catch up within half a year if there aren’t any more delays but I’ll deal with the issue day by day. My sickness also means I’ve again skipped watching and reviewing a film this month because I want to relax.

Dad and I got the replacement parts for my laptop. But the catch was, despite his efforts, they weren’t the super exact parts that fit my laptop. We couldn’t replace anything in the end. Fortunately, my dad was able to put my laptop back together but it’s frustrating its issues couldn’t be resolved. The screen wire is still touch and go and I have to touch the exposed insolation around it and bend the screen up and down to make it in workable. Mom already threw out the packaging, so we can’t return the items. I surmise I’ll just work with this laptop for as long as it could function.

The headphone jack adapter I ordered took so long to arrive I ordered another 1 from the same group but a different deliverer. I got the second 1 very swiftly and so far it’s reliable. I was thinking of contacting the Post Office again this week when on Monday I checked the package tracking app and found a few updates had at last appeared saying that it traveled to Massachusetts and then to my state! More updates followed and by the time Mom and I got home from shopping later that morning, it already arrived. I’m glad to finally have that missing item accounted for and it will be nice to have a backup if and when the current 1 breaks. I called for updates earlier in the month and got some response but otherwise I got mostly silence. Oh well, what’s done is done. I hope this doesn’t portend to how the postal service would operate under the Trump administration but I know there were weather issues on the route for my package, so hopefully that was the extenuating circumstance that delayed it.

That’s all for now. May Trump fail horrendously and here's a source to donate to for his attack on undocumented and other immigrants. May hostages on all sides of Israel’s attempted genocide of Gaza and current 1 in the West Bank be freed. Until the end of February, see you!
