I'm so sorry, JZ. My heart aches for you and your family.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Ann, that's a ferret.
My condolences, JZ and family.

Our wings are not tired.
Holding you in my heart and sending strength and love, JZ.
I'm angry for Melanie, for JZ's family, for all of us. And just so, so, so deeply sad.
It's most jarring swinging back and forth between the anger and the sorrow.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I've basically been practicing social isolation my whole life. This is my time.
Me too. I came into this thing already an expert.
I'm about to go hug and cuddle the stuffing out of Matilda for the first time in two weeks.
Oh. Tears on my face.
some of those numbers are us
Different tears. I'm so sorry, JZ.
Which is freaking huge because in the past this level of anxiety wouldn't have even registered with me as being anxiety it would have just been my normal. In the past I would have gotten to the point of almost being barely able to function and also super anxious that no one would believe I needed help.
askye, you've made amazing admirable progress and you deserve to be proud of yourself.
This all could have turned out so differently. It didn't have to be like this.
It really didn't. I hope that fact is not forgotten. Under all the anxiety, I'm really really angry.
But in better news
Happy birthday, Amy!!

Thrive to spite them
I talked to the meds person (I can't remember if she's a nurse or a PA) and she is going to prescribe hydroxyzine which is an antihistamine that works as anti anxiety and for insomnia. Which is good because all the pollen came down in our yard yesterday so I'll get a triple threat. ' and that Some Good News must have a lot of pollen because my eyes are really watery right now.
