Funny thing about black and white. You mix it together and you get gray. And it doesn't matter how much white you try and put back in, you're never gonna get anything but gray.

the hardest to learn / was the least complicated

This is my first day back at work after vacation, and my brain is made entirely of oatmeal. *Cold* oatmeal.

Ugh, cold oatmeal.

I'm sitting outside with a giant fan blowing on me enjoying the air before it gets stupid hot later today. I'm very proud of myself — I worked my ass off in July and, last night, I finished the online async course I took on as summer work. That means I have the rest of this week and part of next week as vacation time! My first day back is the 16th.

Well-deserved vacation time!

Thank you! And my eye shingles have resolved for now. They could come back, but it's a relief to not have that pain. And Newton's biopsies weren't cancerous!

Now I just need someone to BUY THE DAMN CONDO, and things will be looking up.

When I woke up this morning, I was completely confused about where I was. I'm having a little trouble with re-entry!

I also have a sore, scratchy throat and stuffed-up head. I should take a Covid test to be on the safe side, but I suspect it's just random ick.

Thrive to spite them

Hooray no no eye shingles!!

I changed M's bandaged toe. I wasn't sure if I would but I got it all off without hurting him and then got all the layers back on. ... although not as nice as the doctor did it. ( He has a hemostat bandage, non stick bandage, gauze, extra tape for stability). It was still seeping but no where near like the other day.

Back several years ago I freaked out because it looked like my right second toenail had a weird line at the base. Turns out some how the nail had become detected and then it started hurting really bad because the new nail was growing underneath. When I got the old nail off there was a dip on the nail where the new growth hadn't been able to grow. That stayed weird. Then when I busted my little toe the nail finally grew back in 2 separate parts but now it's one. However it has a weird angle on it.
