Probably we should just hibernate for the month of January

I'm prone to being a bit absent-minded at the best of times, in that maybe undiagnosed adhd way, but January is just brutal. Sleepy, half awake, drifting apart from time... sort of dissociating? Friday I dropped a case of glass bottles of sweetened juice concentrate (one of what I like to call my "forgot about gravity" situations) and it must've taken an hour to clean up.

This weekend I fell into icon-making flow; I didn't hear my Snookums alarm at all the other day and he got his insulin 5 hours late, and I've been trying to gradually adjust it back to schedule since. Earlier today I intended to switch the bunnies (lock up Inspector Japp and let Rowan out) but when I had them there I just gave them the treats and forgot the cage part. Poor Rowan had to wait another 4 hours. Then when I tested Snookums's blood sugar this evening, I put the test strips and the monitor away but forgot to look at the result. I had to start over to know how much insulin he needed.

Also Wax and I cooked dinner late (I forgot what time it was before) and we both forgot to make rice to go with it until it was already done cooking.

January is the worst!

I would like to cancel January tbh. So would Wax.

What a sucky month! I wish there was teleportation so you could go somewhere sunny in January (and I could go somewhere cold).

If I imagine a near-reality science fiction where teleportation is a thing unfortuantely it would probably still be out of my price range.

Unless it's like just isolated people who have this superpower and I'm one of them, that would be fine.
