I have another article out on the site that gives me a bunch more money if it gets shared on Facebook (through the button in the header of the article itself) 400 times. It's about beer! And food! And Louisiana! So, take a read, and if you like it, please consider sharing on your Facebook page? It would mean the world to me (well, if the world is $200. Which feels like the world when you're a freelance writer.)
Louisiana: Where Craft Beer and Food Collide
Tax season is over, laid off.
Oh well, now I can catch up a bit on ...stuff.
Could I get some interview~ma for 7 am board time, tomorrow? Many thanks!
I just found out that my elderly cousin Pat, whom I often visited and took out to dinner in Memphis, passed away last night. Word is she went quietly and didn't suffer. I knew her time was probably drawing near, but she seemed more or less okay when I visited her two weeks ago and I hoped we'd have more time with her.
Add me to the ranks of pregnant Buffistae - we're looking forward to welcoming the new addition in mid-November.
(edit: I'm not really announcing this anywhere else on the Interwebs, though I might use my f-locked LJ as a place for rantings/ramblings.)
Dammit, I hate writing these: [link]
I'm about to post a link to a companion piece, with huge honking trigger warnings, in Great Write Way, because ... catharsis, I think.
Drew and I have been in the ER since about 5:30 this morning due to intense gut pain. With his history, we didn't want to take any chances. It looks like it's a kidney stone. Bad news because intense pain, but good news because anything that isn't pancreatitis is good news. Still, relief from pain-ma would be appreciated
ETA: We are home. Big ol’ stone, so urologist appointment and possible treatment to follow, but very relieved that it’s not something more serious (though I’m very sorry that it’s something so painful).
Daniel and I just got back from the veterinarian with Harvey - learning how to give subQ fluids. During his regular check-up they found he is in chronic kidney failure. Age-related, as he is 17. Kitty~ma requested, please and thank you.
I am a Bayista.
