My Brain Hates Me

C’mon, brain. We’re supposed to be on the same side. The side of making sure that I remain functioning and not sinking into a pit of anxious despair. So let’s NOT look things up that will trigger me and instead do something else. Please.

Doodcember, Day 26 – Roast

So, technically it’s not super hot or warm or whatever. But as someone who sweats everytime it gets over 65 degrees, it’s downright uncomfy.

Doctor Dot: Vaccinations

I am actually not sure if they hand out stickers when you get your second shot, but if they do, then hey – free sticker. Got my first shot this past Friday. Have to wait until the end of the month to get my second dose. But it feels good to at least be on… Continue reading Doctor Dot: Vaccinations

Back to Work

Did I mention that Quincy’s taking this very seriously? ‘Cause he is. Side note: I am doing MUCH better which is a huge relief. Hopefully it means the surgery’s working.

It’s pretty much been Germ City around here. Thankfully, we’re all mostly on the upswing. Been able to sleep… Continue reading Springtime Colds

Remedies

Most walrus recipes contain pureed fish guts in some shape or form.

I’ll just stick with Allegra/not really taking any allergy medication because I’m hoping that I can just ride it out and besides most allergy medication doesn’t really work on me anyway.

Sweat It Out

My body is not a wonderland. More like a house of horrors.

Sweat is gross. And lucky for me, whenever I start sweating, I can’t stop. It’s not like a little trickle – it is a full fledged tsunami of perspiration. The volume of sweat I can put out is truly astounding and utterly terrifying. And sometimes, it’ll happen for no reason at all. Like last Friday,… Continue reading Sweat It Out
