Took my truck in for an oil change and came away with all sorts of repairs that were needed. An oil change that ended up being several hundred dollars. They also couldn't complete the repairs by the end of the work day today so I'm truckless. Feeling sort of anxious as I realize how vulnerable I am to circumstance and events. I came back home via the bus and will have to use that mode of transportation tomorrow. Not a good feeling to realize how restricted I am without a vehicle. Also don't feel all that good physically. I've been too long in isolation. My symptoms amped up today. I was shaking a lot, especially when I had to deal with the repair place, take a bus, walk a fair distance in moving about, and so on.

I seem to remember that I had an interesting dream last night. I lost the details as I plowed through my hectic day. Watched an Argentine movie, XXY. It was a story about a young child who was a hermaphrodite and had reached an age where decisions needed to made regarding the condition. The film focused on the difficulties friends, family and everyone involved had to deal with as events unfolded. It was a good film that unflinchingly examined the feelings that people face when dealing with such an issue.
