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.

Hey, my brother has been sober for 3 years today. What's weird is that I woke up this morning thinking that his sobriety anniversary is right around this time in May, but I couldn't remember the exact date, because my memory is shit. And then he posted about it on Instagram this morning.

I don't like to think about it too hard, because when he went to the hospital, he had liver damage and the doctor said he was probably a year away, at most, from advancing to cirrhosis (if he kept drinking, that is). But his liver healed totally after he quit, which is amazing, since he abused it on an epic scale.

Three years. I'm so proud of him.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That's great, Steph. Congrats to your bro!

Dear tumblr, please let me go to a specific date on my dashboard.

Or is that a thing you can do and I just don't know how?

That's so great, Steph!

Great news, Steph's brother!

So, my coffee is down to 1/7 caffeinated this week. I think I will probably allow myself a cup of fully caffeinated on Saturdays, because this makes sense in my head, so given that does it make sense to just make the jump now to fully decaf the rest of the week or should I keep tapering down?

You're getting close to a homeopathic does of caffeine.

I'm curious. Why are you switching to decaf?

I'm pretty much totally decaffeinated during the week (except for tea/tea blends). On the weekends I go for half-caf; I find it still does the trick for me without the downsides of fully-leaded.

Dear tumblr, please let me go to a specific date on my dashboard.

Can you navigate to the specific month at least in your archives?
