Reavers ain't men. Or they forgot how to be. Now they're just nothing. They got out to the edge of the galaxy, to that place of nothing, and that's what they became.

That which does not kill you should RUN

Hypertension high-five!

Go Team Hypertension!

(I finally went to get blood drawn this morning for that damned cholesterol test. I sure hope that 9 months of oatmeal almost every morning plus lots more veggies and coconut oil brought my level down by the 9 [NINE!] frigging points that will keep the doctor happy.)

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

Aw, I'll miss your purple bag.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

The hypertension isn't worrying me, really. If all it takes to fix it is taking a water pill, eating less salt, and getting a little more exercise, you know, I could have worse problems.

How long does a stomach bug usually last? 48 hours? I'm going back to bed. Hopefully without barfing on the way.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Just in case our techy job-seekers haven't seen that Reverb is hiring: [link] They are open to remote workers.

The brand discontinued the style, so I'll hang on to the purple bag if I can figure out how to clean it since I can't get a new one. It's pretty grody.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Sweet messenger bags.

I have been admiring Sherpani bags in various styles when I see them in stores, but I do not need any sort of bag for any reason at all probably for the rest of my life. Huge surplus at my house.

Ugh, I need to do that sometime soon. Which means I need to start laying off the baked goods immediately and give myself enough time to recover from eating all the bacon and poutine this week.

I'm getting a little tired of all this work I seem to be expected to do while I'm at work. 5 days in a row is too much.

I was just thinking that exact thing! I am totally out of gas, brain-wise, by about noon on Friday. If not sooner.

Oh great, I get to go interview someone now...

Errands done, finally ate something at 1, by which point I was really cranky, oops. New bird feeder holder installed [link] Got cheap plastic plates and installed a dish underneath, since birds are messy and I have a ridiculous pile of birdseed on the ground below...

Wish I'd gotten a little more done, but traffic was a bit much for midday on a Friday...
