This is frigging (not said in a T.Rumpway) 'UGE! I'm so proud of you. Best wishes.
Aww! Thank you!
All right, no one's killing folk today, on account of our very tight schedule.

Kat, I may do that! Or get this Chrome extension possibly!!
Had my birthday party tonight! It went smashingly until the last 20 minutes or so...had bunches of folks over for happy hour on my patio, then went dancing, then to karaoke! But leaving karaoke there was drama and then my one friend was all pissy and drunk and her gf was also drunk and it was just bad.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I'm glad at least most of it was good?

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.
Sorry to hear about the drama, meara. No fun. But I am glad it held off until later, so it was not the whole night.

Great job news, Dana!
You'd think somebody in Cambridge would want a ride this morning. You would be so wrong.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Crossing all my digits for you, Hec!

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Kansas City is flooding now too. KC people, everyone all right?
I had a bad night last night. Bad dreams of sexual assault, haven't had one of those for a while. It's stuck with me. I was pretty depressed this morning. Didn't get up until 11am, now mad at myself because it's after noon and I'm not even showered and I hate starting the day so late and there's so much to do. I'm slacking off on going to the gym, my house is a mess, and I haven't done a single thing I promised myself I'd do this week.
On the upside, I made a good bacon and cheese omelet for breakfast and I'll drag my carcass upstairs and shower once I'm done with this delicious mug of coffee.
Did I mention I'd stopped taking the topamax because of brain fog and vertigo and peripheral neuropathy in my feet? Well, I did. Those problems are clearing up, but the depression is creeping back. I mean, I think it is. Maybe it never really went away. I can't really tell if this is different.
I was supposed to get a referral to a new psychiatrist back in ...March or May or whenever I saw the new doctor for the first time. I've seen him 2 or 3 times but still no referral in the system for the shrink. I told him I didn't really want to do it, but I didn't mean to jinx it...
I gotta go, Mr. Percy wants to be petted. I may be terrible at everything else, but I can make my cats happy.

Oh zen, what a nasty dream to have to deal with. Your kitties love you, one of the best ways to make them happy is to take care of yourself. If you are not up to calling your doctor's office to remind/bug them about the referral, perhaps you can farm that out to someone? (I am volunteering to be your designated representative.)

Thank you, Andi. I can contact my doctor's office through the university hospital system and ask about the referral. And........ there, I just did it. They'll probably get back to me on Monday. Sometimes all I need is a prompt. I think I don't have good executive function in the ol' brain matter. I wonder if it's worth bringing up to the hypothetical shrink whether I might have ADD. It probably says "hysterical hypochondriac neurotic" in my medical chart.
