A friend of mine unexpectedly sent me €42, which is a great help. Another person unexpectedly volunteered to send me €3 per week, which is another tremendous help. The timing on both is excellent. I have been struggling with many stressful things, unexpected events, and sickness, and these things helped me emotionally.
I seem to have gotten food poisoning again. I am extremely disoriented as I write this, and I making tons of typographical errors in each sentence, so I expect that some of this post will be oddly written. As best as I can tell, I slept for 12 hours with a five-minute break in the precise middle. When I woke up in the middle, it was 6 o’clock, and I thought it was breakfast time. I am pretty sure now that it was dinner time: 6 pm instead of 6 am.
On 10 November 2014, I paid for 28 days of lodging. Therefore, in my head, I fixed 10 December 2014 as the date I needed new lodging. I am not sure how I made that error: I guess at some point I conflated 10 November and 8 December and came up with 10 December. On 8 December, the hostel I was at asked me when I was checking out. I suddenly had to pack and move to a different place. Just after I discovered I had to move, my dad emailed me. I was very stressed. The email about the €3 per week came about 30 minutes after this started and that helped me to avoid crawling under the bed.
I paid for two nights in a new place, so I am now paid through 10 December 2014 (check out is in a few hours). I have been sick, so I did not make much progress on planning, then sleeping for 12 hours and waking up disoriented has slowed me down.
I think I will stay here for one more day, mostly because I am too physically weak to move to a new location.
I found a zip file with at least 40 more ideas in it.
Well, the combination of serotonin withdrawal syndrome, food poisoning, stress, stress-induced stomach pain, elevated hear rate and shortness of breath from panic disorder, and dehydration and hunger from sleeping so much makes it a little difficult to plan ahead. I guess I will just try to make it through the next 24 hours.
