Thank you...man, six weeks of this clusterfuck.

I went to the gym! I did not love the personal trainer, but it really doesn't matter because I can't afford to continue seeing her. I did get a good sense of what machines are available and how to use them, which was really the point. Now I just need to motivate myself to keep going back when I don't have an appointment.

I decided to treat myself to a latte after and was planning on reading a book at the cafe, but instead I ended up talking to the cafe worker and her boyfriend about Doctor Who and Firefly for an hour instead. Now I am at the library because I'm trying to cut down on tv time and if I go home, it will end up going on.

Lots and lots of ~ma, erika.

Good for you, sj!! And I love finding fannish folks in random places.

Today is warmer and not as breezy as yesterday, hallelu.

Sounds like a good day sj!

Saw my shrink today. We're going to try Abilify. He gave me the script and told me to drop it off and not to except to get filled until tomorrow or later. Seems he's expecting the insurance to balk and call for prior authorization. I'll start off on a small dose and increase each week and see what happens. If it doesn't work or the side effects are too much then he's going to try something that sounded like Sassafray, but that's not it.

I'm so psyched. I just found out there is a Gorey exhibit at the Portalnd Public Library through the end of December. I think it's the same one I missed in Boston earlier this year.

Err, ETA that's Portland ME if it wasn't obvious. Sorry if I raised any false hopes for any PNW folks.

Oh! Now I want to go back to Maine!

They were super sweet. I'll definitely go back and hang out with them again.

If it is the one that was at the Boston Anthaneum, you really should go see it. We may need to see it again, too.

I was about to get really excited. Whaaah!

Updating due to war: me and mine are finally safe and at home, and crossing fingers that my sister will still have a house to come back to when this round will be over.

I'm so tired of this, and it has only been few hours. Anyhow, I'm mostly updating on Twitter (@ANTexperiment), and soon will collapse into bed. So much violence that's good for nothing.

(Apologies for grammar fucks and typos; it has been a long day and I'm exhausted.)

please be safe.
