That's a good idea, Meara. Kristen is a better choice since she's here and aware of my medications and history. She's allowed to call my doctor to discuss any issues of my mental health, as is Paula. I signed a bunch of paperwork for that in case I have a bad reaction or the medication isn't working.

Very cute! I like the little room with the built in table and benches.

Oh, man, is it really Friday? I have lost all sense of time, with holidays and snow and tech crises and financial crises and whatnot.

I don't have any idea what I'm planning this weekend. I might head to the coffeehouse later today to chill with the SO while he teaches (or doesn't, as is the case more often than not, with students who are noshows). And I'm getting kinda hyped up again, so I probably will spend a good amount of time in the studio and working on the cigar boxes.

But I have no people or going out plans at all, and honestly? That's fucking fine with me. It has been a maelstrom of stuff to do lately, and will be again for the foreseeable future.

Oh, man, is it really Friday?

It is, which is weird for me too, because I have only worked three days since the last weekend.

OMG, I want to live in that house so bad.

I do wonder how other people approach some of these medical issues. I'm still waiting for someone to tell me how much the neurostimulator costs, so I know if I can afford it or not so I can decide once and for all. It's been months, and no one is getting back to me with that info. Apparently it's hard to work out. I know I'm paying 20%, but I have no idea of how much. None at all.

Apparently there's a big article in Time about the ridiculousness of medical pricing and charging. It's bananas, is what. Edit: here. It's really long.

I'm excited for this weekend! Teevee tonight, yoga in the morning, a movie with my cousin tomorrow night, maybe more snow, regular Sunday family dinner.

I'm taking Zoloft and Abilify, Steph. They suggested Lithium, but I said fuck off.

I have such warm feelings toward Zoloft. It was the first AD I took, and it literally saved my life. I've heard good things about Abilify. I hope the new meds are a huge help for you.

That is an adorable bungalow. WANT. Except, here.

We have no plans for the weekend yet. Maybe a movie? Laundry, for sure.

Yay for going out on the town, Allyson. I need to do that more often myself.

I totally support house hunting with Kristen. Hell, I totally support fake gay marriage with Kristen.

My weekend plans include grading and grading and maybe more grading. I'm thinking of taking the kids to see my sister and the horses too, if I can get the grading done.

That house is so pretty! I had an apartment a million years ago that was that era/style and I loved it. Also, I apparently have a cousin in Eagle Rock, my parents were just down there visiting, they liked the town.

I am working all weekend, but then I have M-F of next week off. Backwards-land.

Today we [edit: was. we are weird, too, but today WAS weird] weird because school was on a 2-hour delay (due to freezing rain) so the kids did not start school until 11:15.

This weekend we are helping my SIL move into her new post-divorce house and taking my MIL and FIL out to dinner for their anniversary. Since this is all happening in small-town Ohio, the odds of said dinner being at Bob Evans are high.
