The more I look at the list of symptoms of low thyroid, the more I feel like that might actually be the problem, given the stats on hypothyroidism in my family. And the more I just want to go to the doctor, get the damn bloodwork, get it done already so I can be on thyroid medication and find a good dosage and get this shit fixed. Otherwise I have to treat all the various symptoms I'm having individually and I don' wanna. Especially since I'm already doing a fairly vigorous exercise routine that should be keeping that aspect under control dammit. And I don't eat out of the ordinary.

Health grumping aside, capoeira class is still going well. I'm apparently doing well enough that with other schools' students hanging around in our space, Groot feels comfortable sending me off with a new student to show him how a routine we just learned works. Which I have now written down on tumblr, there, maybe I can practice it tonight. I was going to practice it this morning but I slept almost an hour and a half in oops.

That was sort of predictable though. We had a good class and then the boy had texted me saying he was outside so I had to bolt and we went to see Thor: Ragnarok. Which was actually much better than I expected, I think the comedic tone was a good choice because it's Ragnarok, your choices are treat the whole thing as very distant retelling or be utterly grieved by all the death. The way it ended up I could enjoy it as more of a distant retelling by people. Who are completely stoned out of their gourds. Also the inverse Willy Wonka boat ride thing was a trip. Also Loki was surprisingly less completely fucking homicidal in this one. I hope he's not going to get redeemed in canon so easily (there's no hope for fandom and I can't say I'd want there to be) but it could well be the start of a redemption arc. Various things having happened that he did that okay if I say anything more there will be spoilers.

Anyway, Taika Waititi's humor ranged a little more towards the cringe than I'd like but other than that, not bad at all.

But the end result was that I saw it, got home at 11.30 after a capoeira class and a full day of work, crashed hard, woke up inexplicably at 4 in the morning, another symptom I hope is fixed by the fucking thyroid drug, and then slept till after 8. So... yeah. Ugh and double ugh.

But I have a doctor's appointment, I'm going to get my blood drawn next week for it, and like a responsible damn adult I called in a refill on my asthma inhaler because bodies are shit and function poorly at the best of times. And other than that the rest of things are going reasonably well. I'm still keeping up an absurd pace in Nanowrimo and working on other projects. Amazing. Feeling a little disheartened about self-publishing and getting a bigger audience than like ten friends but. Time. Experience? Submitting short stories. Other stuff. It might help if I announced it more than like, once, on Twitter either. Silly me.
