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

Happy BevDay!

Ooh, a happy day indeed! Happy Birthday, Beverly! I toss cake and glitter in your general direction.

I just cancelled, well, rescheduled, a Dr Appt. The freezing rain over night/this morning is a slick layer over the rock like substrate of yesterday’s pellet ice. It is so much worse to walk on than yesterday. No way am I attempting to drive on that.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

So I haven't had an eye exam in three years now, and I think my prescription is basically the same, but I do want new glasses, so I guess I have to go in, but is that worth doing at this point? It just feels so optional that maybe I should wait another 6 months.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

Happy birthday, Beverly!

Jesse, I'm putting off my eye exam until after I'm vaccinated. For whatever that's worth.

Yeah, I'm putting off eye exam and dentist until after I'm vaccinated. Nothing super critical in either realm, so...

Oh honey, the mentally unwell people have been in the fanbase since Game Changers was Stucky fanfiction on the internet. The calls have been coming from inside the house the whole time!

Happy Birthday, Beverly!

I got results back from my recent physical—I'm apparently suffering from hypothyroidism and need to start taking meds for it. Which eliminates both any regret over going to the expense/trouble of an extra test and any guilt over gaining weight and being lethargic the last few months. Turns out I'm not just a lazy lard-ass after all!

I went to the dentist last summer (when cases were v low here) but put off my recent appointment until they’ve been vaccinated (the receptionist confirmed they’d all received a first shot but not yet a second, when my appointment was originally planned for, so I postponed a couple months). You could check if the eye doc was on the list for vaccination? Even if you aren’t vaccinated?
