I am not...I am not the damsel in distress. I am not some case. I have to work this. I've lived in a cave for 5 years in a world where they killed my kind like cattle. I am not going to be cut down by some monster flu. I am better than that. What a wonder...how very scared I am.

Thrive to spite them

I should be asleep, group tomorrow. Or later today I guess. I'm not asleep.

I forgot to call a dentist...I knew I needed some work before I moved but I just couldn't deal with it and now I'm worried my tooth is...well I'm trying not to think about it. Monday I'll find a dentist and get a cleaning. I did check my policy and the coverage for fillings won't kick in until sometime this summer so hopefully I can last that long or they can come up wtih a cheap solution.

Can't sleep -- too much pain. I can't take any more painkillers, so I'm taking some Advil now, though I don't think it'll help much. Usually when I can't sleep because of pain, I can take some Benadryl, and that will get me to sleep, but I ran out of Benadryl.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Oh Hil, I'm so sorry. I hope you get some relief.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Last night's sleep was interrupted by a party on the roof, I assume it was the neighborhood raccoons as it sounded like ROUS.

Rodents of Unusual Size? I don't believe they exist.

Indeed they do WS, and they were having a party on my roof.

I just remembered that I need to do Passover grocery shopping. Blah. Not sure whether to drive out to the store that I know will have a ton of stuff, or just go to the grocery store that's closer and will probably have all the basics but maybe not the extra stuff.

It is Defcon 1 (or whichever is highest) Cleaning Avoidance when I choose to brush down cobwebs, some with their late creators still attached, rather than deal with the part of the kitchen where we put stuff when we moved in and then didn't touch it. 95% of it will be thrown out, but I've still got to pick it up, think "Oh, yes, he was going to do X with this," weep a while, then take it to the garbage can.

Maybe I'll do the counters instead. After I try some homemade sweet and sour sauce. But two shelves' worth of his books have gone to appreciative homes this weekend, so that's a bonus. It's very gratifying to pull a book off the shelf and have someone go "OMG, how did you get a copy of that! It's been out of print for years!" "Um, he bought it when it was still in print?"

I have fallen into the Neko Atsume hole. Just got my yard expansion this morning! Now I can go after the elusive cats since I have managed to get mementos from all the regulars.
