Walmart in 2025

Oh, Walmart, we really do have to do your job for you at times, don’t we? Turns out the probiotic drinks I got expired in November! Plus, they gave me half-rotten veggies.

There are two things that seem to be the theme of our lives: dealing with money issues and fighting incompetency. For me, it’s the health issues, of course. I’m having burning down there again and hoping it’s just menopausal shit and not any kind of infection. I don’t see how or why I would be infected. I think it’s because I slacked off the probiotics—that’s why I got them. I just didn’t know they were going to give me expired ones. In reviews, I’ve read others complain about being given expired stuff, so I’m going to have to keep an eye on them as usual since they can’t do their fucking jobs right.

I don’t think I’ve slacked off keeping things lubed down there, but just in case, I will be well lubed—hopefully with probiotics that aren’t expired, even though I can’t take them daily because they mess up my stomach. I’ve got cranberry juice too.

I’ve been having post-nasal drip at times down the back of my throat, so I looked up the various causes. Another possibility with my nose could be enlarged adenoids. I do have a few of the symptoms, but in less than a week, I should know for sure what the hell is going on.

Tom said maybe there’s nothing going on and it’s just a matter of a lifestyle change, but I don’t see that. I really don’t think it’s typical allergy stuff or anything I’m doing or not doing. When I first thought it was allergies, I tried pretty much everything, and nothing helped. If it isn’t polyps or an adenoid issue, then it’s likely tied to my septum or nasal valve. I don’t think it’s going to be a quick and easy fix—things usually aren’t with me. I just hope to hell this guy doesn’t cancel on me like the other group did!

For the last couple of days, I took half a clonazepam before bed and then the other half when I woke up in the middle of my sleep, which I don’t seem to be able to stop doing. I woke up feeling a little hungover and tired, so I ended up napping, which helped a little. Well, it helped enough to finish the cleaning I wanted to do and change the sheets.

Yesterday I had salmon, so today I’ve got a chicken leg going in the cooker with mushrooms, sugar snap peas, and zucchini. At least Walmart was kind enough to give me some fresh veggies. Earlier, I had a salad with spinach, arugula, cucumber, and walnuts. But the incompetent idiots had to go and give me whole walnuts instead of the chopped ones I ordered, so I had to break them up by hand. Walnuts are pretty soft, so it wasn’t too hard to do—at least they weren’t almonds.
