A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
YAY BABY!
ita !, that app IS petty. I would say if you need that app, you either need better friends, or are kind of a shitty friend yourself. Who DOES that?!
I've got three tats; I want a wrist tat that says "Choice" in Latin. Just a wee one.
The plastic wrap is off, and my hair is not the screaming fire engine red I wanted, but it IS a very pretty bright red. I think I would have to bleach to get the screaming red, and that's just too damaging.
I've been trying to figure out where the Ringer talk is, too. I've got a theory...and it's not bunnies.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
Yay, FAQ!Baby!!!
Jilli, I love the new tattoo. I need that reminder myself. I have gotten in my own way more times than I can count.
I keep meaning to buy myself a ring that says "Breathe." Because I flip out really easily and drive myself into a panic more often than I can even say. Of all the worries and fretting that I share here with you all, I'd say that what I've shared with you is *maybe* 10% of the worry-panic-distress I throw myself into in the course of one day. Seriously.
But I can often stop my panic if I just take a deep goddamn breath. Sometimes 3 or 4. But it will usually get my racing thoughts to slow down and then I can get myself back on track.
I just don't always remember to breathe, you know? And so then I flip out. Hence, the ring (I'll see it all the time; I can't actually *see* earrings or a pendant while it's on me, and I can't wear a bracelet while I work because it just whacks against the desk while I type or write).

Jilli, that is a gorgeous tat. I need it tatooed on the inside of my eyelids.
Yay FAQBaby!!!

My neighbor is loaning me proper sitting chairs for my parents' visit. We're coordinating a transfer tomorrow.
How fucking luck am I? I moved into a place with my tribe.

Now I have to figure out where to feed them tomorrow night between here and the airport.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Talking to an actual oncologist about survival rates and seeing real statistics helped somewhat.
Colon cancer is the second most fatal cancer in the US. So that's something I didn't use to know, and didn't care to. Man, I just got back on the rails.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame
My first tat, a palm tree on my ankle, is my version of "don't sweat the small stuff, chill out, breathe". My 40th birthday tat (is that a thing now?) is another reminder that life can go in any direction I want, I just need to trust myself to make the right choices.
I am so frustrated with iTunes right now. I have completely uninstalled and reinstalled and it still won't recognize my internet connection. Yes, I've asked about this in technology and so far haven't found a fix. Just so frustrating.
