Oh jeez, ita, I am so sorry.. Late this afternoon, if you need me to bring food or stuff like that, let me know. We have a soccer meeting, but after that I can help.

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

Thanks, Kat. Let me think through my fridge. I was planning to shop today, but I hadn't planned what to shop for yet.

Thanks, all of you guys. Yesterday was pretty ridiculous, and then it was ridiculouser. I honestly didn't expect to be able to do all that just standing up to walk across the room, but my experience shows that's more dangerous to me than the martial arts ever were.

ita !, you are due a f@*#ton of good karma to balance out the awful that you've been living with.

Ditched work early today. Again. No volunteers showed, as expected. Cramping too hard to be of valuable use.

Now I'm home and watching my cat vomit on the floor. Yay!

Karma is a cat, sleeping in my lap cuz it loves me. ~TS

I can share my people with you, ita. Jane is staying with me this weekend to fetch my food, meds, and ice packs so I'm off my feet, and Allyson is coming over this afternoon to cover for Jane while she's at a class. I can totally do a few hours on my own instead so Allyson can help you out.

I think that about sums it up, yeah.

On the upside, the pharmacy got the subscription, and they'll be delivering meds. So that's no longer a concern.

For the first time yesterday, I think, I had someone debate my name. I was being pissy and just saying it without spelling "i-t-a, ita, i-t-a" is how I do it for companies. But I just said "ita" this time. She asked me to spell it, so I did, and then she went "Mmm?" I'm all "What?" "What else?" "There isn't anything else. That's the whole name." "Oh."

Unrelatedly, I caught someone looking at me and laughing the other day--I was about to cloak myself in affront, but then I realised as long as I carry a Greendale Community College bag, I will never know.

Oh ita. Good grief, indeed.
