08.31.23 – Allergies Ruined Another Day.

I mean, it was my fault. I was craving for Chinese food last night and decided to get some delivered. However, the usual place I normally get it food from was closed yesterday, so I had to order from a different place. I assumed there was some kind of cross-contamination with shellfish leading to some really bad allergic reactions. Don’t get me wrong, I got some mild allergic reactions from the place I normally get it from. But if I try a different restaurant, I always get horrible reactions. And last night was no different. I had to use my inhaler, wipe myself with cold wipes, and knock myself out with some allergy medicine. And I found myself dragging myself all day. I was too exhausted and I was just in and out of sleep.

I was not complaining by any means. It just reminded me that living with allergies could be a bitch sometimes. Well, all the time. I already have a complicated relationship with food and having allergies makes it even more frustrating. Honestly, the only way I could stay out of allergens is if I cook my own food. But sometimes – well, most of the time – I really crave food that I have no business putting in my body. I have no discipline whatsoever. Like I said, complicated.

Moving on, I found that the movie Stuck in Love (2013) was available on streaming services again. I just need to buy this movie so I can watch it as much as I want. I keep forgetting how much I love this movie. And I’m just reminded of my enjoyment when I see the title when I browse streaming services. And that was pretty much I found this movie the first time. Just browsing casually in hopes of finding a movie that I could play in the background. But I got hooked. Since then, this movie has been one of my go-to movies.

I have no big plans today. I mean, I am still suffering from the aftereffects of an allergic reaction-filled night and morning. So, I just really want to bundle myself with a blanket and just sleep this day away. I might try to read but honestly, that might be a bit tough – I could barely keep my eyes open.
