It's good to have cargo. Makes us a target for every other scavenger out there, though, but sometimes that's fun too.

Jesus, I thought I was passed the you're not someone I'd date, but let's fuck shit when I got out of college.

I'm actually pretty happy for that to be the default and then advance to dating if we turn out to enjoy each other's company while wearing clothes.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

If I have to actually have my gallbladder out, I'm seriously thinking of not telling them until it's over and I'm back home. At which point my mom will talk for 20 minutes about her stomach and my dad will say that it's STILL my heart.

This is how I approach my mom. She is not a narcissist, but she is eeyore and makes my already high anxiety about things worse. Like, she seriously asks all the same questions that my weasel brain asks when making me anxious.

I forgot that when they inject the dye for the CT scan, you can taste it. So freaky!

Now I wait for the radiologist to read it and send the results to my doctor.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I have way too many safety issues to have someone at my house or go to their house that I don't already know and would date. Hell no. And I guess other people are just more used to the idea of having to block people on their phones, they want phones #s immediately.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

This thing I knew would be irritating today is being irritating.

And now a PM is trying to correct me about acronym usage. Dude, don't even.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

My CT scan results are normal*, so my primary care doctor referred me to a GI doctor. I'm wondering if this is just stress. We'll see. I have an appointment next week. If the answer turns out to be "meditate more, bro," I am going to be annoyed.

*The CT scan showed a 1-centimeter nodule on one of my adrenal glands, and my doctor said that in 99.5% of cases they're a benign oddity, but she asked me to get an MRI just to follow up and be sure. I'm going to do that next week, but I'm not too fussed about it.

Yay, normal! I got my mammogram results the other day, and they also came back normal.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Normal is good. Congratulations (throws confetti)! I feel the need to celebrate normal.

Normal is a relief, although my stomach is still being a jerk. It needs to get the message that everything is A-OK.
