I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I am in an Uber on the way home. I know they're evil, but they were half the price of Lyft and I am tired.

Husband just started a vaccine convo with the driver. I may need to murder him.

Oh dear, Dana.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

So, unexpected outcome at the OB/GYN: the issue that necessitated the biopsy has healed so well (with a new treatment) over the past 2 weeks that the OB/GYN said she didn't think a biopsy was necessary today and wants to see me again in a month to check it. She was actually speechless for a minute; I said "I think it's improved over the past 2 weeks," and she checked and did an actual double-take. She said it looks like it's healed about 90%, so it's entirely possible I had just needed the new treatment.

Anyway, I didn't have to have needles where needles should never be, so that along with Wow Check Out Your Healing Factor is my big win for today.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

That is a big win, Steph! Yay Healing Powers!

Sending the ~ma to Laura, and anyone else who needs it.

Jane tested positive this morning, and since the four of us are stuck in a car together for the next two days, I'm assuming both Mark and I will have it too by the time we get home. Luckily we're all vaxxed to the max, and so far it just seems like an annoying cold; in fact, Rose is already feeling better. (I did buy a pulse oximeter just in case, though, because why not.)

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I want to type hugs, but my iPad Keyboard seems to have died and I hate the keyboard on the iPad itself.

But much COVID ma to Kate and family, Sheryl’s kiddo and family, Laura’s friend, Cindy’s son and girlfriend, and everyone else.

Also, I was going to give Steph biopsy ma, but yay! Good news!

I am listening to Buffering the Vampire Slayer-a special on Tara’s death and another on Spike/Buffy rape, and I had totally forgotten that they were both in the same episode. It kind of makes me angry all over again, because it feels like they just slapped 2 groups of fans dreams down, and also shot it really oddly.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Glad to hear that, Tep!

Huh, I had forgotten those were in the same episode, too, Sophia. They feel so separate, somehow.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Huzzah!

Jane tested positive this morning, and since the four of us are stuck in a car together for the next two days, I'm assuming both Mark and I will have it too by the time we get home

Hoping for the best!

Woot! Slayer!

Oh, Kate that sounds stressful, even with the Maxy Vax. Though the people I do know who've had breakthrough infections after vax have all had really mild cases.

Thank you for not calling me Deadpool.
