"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo

Noah's surgery is not a huge deal. Routine for micro preemies. It's only a big deal in that the onset of the retinopathy has been so late.

I feel like the future for Noah and Grace is like a Wally Lamb book.

But, again, whatever. There's really nothing I can do about it.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Yup. Been thinking about you, Kat. I know it's tough.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

In news about me, is there any good way to say to one's boss, "You know, I can only focus on so many things at one time!!" I think the real problem right now is that the number of things I can focus on is approaching zero, but still.

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

Delicious grilled panini sandwich for lunch. Yummers.

I have been informed this morning by sundry strangers that I am a) working that corset b) rocking that corset c) sexy. Which probably means I'm not appropriately dressed for work. Ooops.

I used to have this issue a lot when I started my last job. I had to keep sitting my boss at the time down and have him prioritize tasks for me. And, to some extent, I just had to get used to those priorities changing on a dime and having to do many different things at once.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Shit. I forgot all about project donkey.
