but I am saying hi!

Hi, Sophia! I'm glad you came around. I've been missing you. Sorry things are shitty.

I'm very sorry about Miley, msbelle.

but it strikes me that needing the internet to fix my access to the internet is not a great design

I've been there and had that same thought. Used to depend on having JZ fix things from her work computer, but when she started working at home we had to figure out how to do it with phones which was not ideal.

I am having major peri-menopause issues.

I don't think mine are major, but I do feel like they are getting worse. I keep trying to explain to my husband that we cannot rely on my short-term memory at the moment, but I used to have a really good memory, and I don't think he understands exactly how quickly information flies out of my brain at the moment.

Also it’s become clear that it is time to let my little dog Miley go.

I'm sorry, msbelle. It is such a tough decision to have to make, even when you know it is right.

Thank you for checking in, Sophia! I'm sorry that life is overwhelming. Sending love.

We have a cold front! It was only 62 when I went to the dog park this morning. All the usual gang in sweatpants and jackets. The dogs didn't care.

Speaking of weather, are our left-coast Buffistas okay with the various storms? And all the other geographically located peeps! Weather be whack all over. I'm grateful that we haven't had our typical draught/fire season, but having severe thunderstorm and tornado warnings is a new one in the winter for us.

I ordered some Go Taylor Swift’s boyfriend shirts for the Superb Owl for ltc and Stitch from a local mom and when I picked them up I ended up talking to her for a half hour. We’re going to make plans to get together. So, maybe I haven’t completely forgotten how to make friends?

Nice, sj!

Hi Sophia!

Speaking of weather, are our left-coast Buffistas okay with the various storms?

Less wind damage in NorCal than last year's storms, but I think more flooding in SoCal this time.

So, maybe I haven’t completely forgotten how to make friends?

I ship it! In a friendship way.

I had plans for this week, and they still exist but they got moved around so that Tuesday is weirdly empty whereas I had it blocked out before. I am futless. (cf. [link]

Adorable! Also, yay new friend!

Every time I think that I am futless (which is pretty often) I remember someone here explaining what it means.

I'm so sorry about Miley, msbelle.

I am still, thankfully, unscathed by our ... not unseasonable, just rather more dramatic than usual, storms. So far. *Knocks on wood*

• Remembers she has another PET scan tomorrow* *Knocks on wood for that too*

Fingers crossed for you, Epic!

I don’t know why but I’m having a hard time keeping track of what day of the week it is. I was 100% thinking today was Wednesday and about to text a friend to confirm we are doing trivia, when I read here and remembered it’s Tuesday. Good grief.

Yay making new friend sj!
