Get up...get up, you stupid piece of... What did you do that for? What's wrong with you? Didn't you hear a word he said? All of you! You think there's someone just going to drop money on you?! Money they could use?! Well, there ain't people like that. There's just people like me.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

a new perscription (yes there was a bit of new-drug freakout, but no, I did not bring the blue-confetti explosion to the board this time. YET.) Hopefully this all just falls under 'weird chemistry,' per usual. I could live with that.

You can shoot me an email if you'd like me to look stuff up for you. I don't mind. And I feel you on weird chemistry. The list of drugs that cause a hypersensitivity reaction in me is getting embarrassingly long.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

If you're shopping for fridges, you'd be remiss not to take this report into consideration.

Man, I carefully sorted my meds this morning and forgot to put the pack in my bag. I have two med packs, and the other one has some meds, so I won't panic or bolt home in rush hour traffic, but DAMN. This is my life. Why can't I work it?

Thank you Steph. Sending soon.

There are currently two reply-all conversations going on in my work email.

My cubemate just fired up a bag of kettle corn, the kind that gave me a migraine when I tasted it back in the day, and my brain is insisting I can smell artificial sweeteners now (and that they're triggers, natch). I KNOW I CAN'T. But, in conjunction with the missing meds, maybe it's time to check my phone to see how long it'll take to get home. And back!

You have to remember that being a 5-time Olympic medalist means Hilary Knight has been playing hockey at an elite level at least 16 years. It's impossible for her to be a teenage girl less than 16 years old, thus the President's complete lack of interest.

Happy Birthday, Hil!

I'm mildly disappointed that when I got to my car my up-to-date pill case was on the front passenger seat. If a weekday was made for hooky, this is it. It's GORGEOUS outside. Bright and sunny, weather in the 80s (forecast says 90s). Wouldn't have been the awfullest to blow a lunch break on driving home and getting today's self portrait in natural light.

However, I will make sure to not just eat lunch outside the office today, but to eat it on a restaurant patio. This is why LA.
