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

Did he offer a word he preferred?

I have to admit, he didn't get a chance. Once he expressed his opinion that I don't get a vote in how I am treated, I explained to him that I'm just parrotting back what my specialists--specialists in two facets of my issues (migraine and pain) and specialists in me--suggest. I am totally not pulling these things out of thin air becaues all the cool kids are doing it, or anything.

So, there was that.

I thought applesauce would just become apple cider rather than going bad?

Nope, it can grow fuzz. But I have no idea how long that takes myself. I never remember to plan around it. Turning out that way usually takes me by surprise.

Thrive to spite them

Im not exactly sure how old the applesauce is, but it smells fine and nothing's growing on it.

I Googled it, but most of the answers I found were very cautious keep 3 -6 days after opening.

ita you're not supposed to have any say in your medical treatment? That doesn't sound right at all. Stupid doctors.

Eh, I keep applesauce for longer than that. Mostly, like people said above, if it hasn't cultured mold, I figure it's okay.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

I'd also figure in how many minutes/hours it sits on the counter with the top off/on, getting warm. If you take it out, spoon out the 'sauce with a clean spoon and put it back in immediately, I wouldn't worry.

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

My niece is in Oslo and has run out of money. The cash machine took her debit card, and her credit card is about maxed out. This is what happens when she spends all her money paying for her "friends" to party with her. We talked her through her panic attack, and now she's trying to work it out on her own, but I'm on standby in case I have to wire her some cash.

And the paint color we put in my bathroom yesterday is totally the wrong color, so I have to go back to Lowes and get them to mix the right color.

And yet I am in an awfully good mood today. I believe my moods have less to do with anything that's happening and most to do with hormone shifts and other internal things. I long for menopause. At least my mood changes are far less volatile than they were when I was younger. I think I might've been kind of a bitch in my 20s. (Don't say it.)

I long for menopause

Oh, lord, yes. Hubby keeps saying "And your bones will get brittle and your moods could be even worse." "I don't care!" I yell back reasonably, "I want this to end!"

35 years is long enough.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

I just realized (thanks, pill pack!!) that I'll be hitting PMS-ville right as my parents get into town. Ahaha, that's gonna be fun.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Are you sure about this? That sounds exactly like one of those phishing scams! Heh.

Our wings are not tired.

The first time I traveled out of the country, I was very poor. And I had definitely not realized the impact of exchange rates! I had to call Charlie (my ex-housemate and close friend) and ask him to put money into my bank account. Which, no big except I was on day 6 of a 25 day trip!! Yup, he deposited money a few times during that trip, without complaint and without giving me any deserved lectures.

And that's why all these years later, I pay all of his bills other than his rent. He covered my idiot ass for YEARS. So it's fun "paying him back" now.
