Nothing says ‘America’ quite like hot dogs and beer, folks. Of course now that I’m vegetarian we ate veggie dogs wrapped in lettuce, so maybe I’m not even American anymore. Either way, Mary came over and we laughed a ton and played with Dolores while we caught up. I’m now regretting having beer since I feel super bloated but oh well!

Tomorrow I’ve got to have a lie in because I feel exhausted from all of the socializing I’ve done in the last few days. I’m also feeling a little bit bummed with the amount of effort I’ve been putting in at the gym lately. I just feel like I’m not doing as much and maybe my head isn’t totally in the right place. I don’t really know what to change up but I feel like I am slacking off without realizing. I also have to be careful that I don’t overexert myself at the gym, otherwise I think I would like to go again tomorrow. It’s tough to strike the right balance sometimes.

I called up Ashtead Hospital today to find out when my tonsillectomy is booked and I learned that they didn’t even have me in their records. The woman on the phone seemed a little concerned and told me to call up my doctor’s office and have them send over the referral ASAP. Unfortunately I wasn’t able to get ahold of the secretary at my doctor’s office so I’ll have to try them again. At this point it’s looking like my tonsillectomy is likely going to happen in August rather than July, which is just slightly annoying. I wish I knew when it was happening so I could get all of my affairs in order ahead of time! Hopefully when I try again tomorrow I’ll be able to set the ball in motion.

Anyway, that’s all I’ve got for today. I’m super tired so I’m going to get ready for bed and try to fall asleep before midnight. See you tomorrow!
