What you did to me was unbelievable, Connor. But then I got stuck in a hell dimension by my girlfriend one time for a hundred years, so three months under the ocean actually gave me perspective. Kind of a M.C. Escher perspective, but I did get time to think.

Punishingly Intricate

That David Byrne project sounds fascinating!

So the fed contract I was working on was terminated, as I suspected it might be. My boss is able to keep my coworker and I on through about mid March working on some internal projects. We have some proposals out there, including one where work could start pretty quickly if we win it, but nothing for sure. So am in a bit of limbo at the moment.

Art Crawl!!!

I don’t even know when the last time I’ve been here was!

I’m so sorry for your loss Shir.

I had my annual checkup yesterday. My AIC went from 7.9 in November to 5.7 on Friday. I’ve continued to lose weight. My cholesterol has improved enough that my doctor is reducing the dosage on the cholesterol meds.

Best checkup I’ve had in years.

Also the Tartan Registry of Scotland has approved the pattern “Witches of Scotland’ [link]

I want it!!!

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

Best checkup I’ve had in years.

Hooray on all counts!

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

Hi sumi! Glad the checkup was good and I love the tartan.

Good luck, lisah. I read mid-March and was relieved and am only just now realizing that that is actually pretty soon, so - proposal ~ma, I suppose

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Lisah, I hope those proposals come through.
