Next Wednesday I can finally start adding foods back from this elimination diet and I'm so glad
I swear I've been more spacy and forgetful since I've been on it. But it's probably from all the stuff I'm depriving myself. I know I went on the extreme end of this because my stomach kept hurting and I got conflicting info from different sources.
It seems to be working so I just have to figure out the problem foods. And I have an endoscopy on June 24th.
My birthday is the 16th so I'm hoping I'll at least have figured out if dairy is an issue or gluten so I can have some kind of treat to celebrate.
Woohoo, dcp!
I'm attending the SFWA Nebula Conference online this weekend, and it's serving as a sort of useful kick in the pants for making me think whether I still really want to be a writer (yes) and what I need to do to make that an active reality again (go back to treating writing as a side hustle like I used to before the Great Burnout of 2015-16, only with more self-care to prevent repeat burnout, and find a new critique group so I can share my work with people regularly because a big and needed part of my motivation is to feel like I'm telling a story TO somebody).
That’s great, dcp!
My interview on Thursday went well, but I got a bad vibe from the city. I don’t think I want to live or work in Muskegon. Luckily I have a lot of other applications out there.
Good to know that, I guess, Calli. Hope something better crops up sooner than later
Go Susan, I am rooting for you!
... anyone else following the news in LA? I am worried.

Feeling powderkeg-ish
Things are pretty fucking bad.
If they try to federalize the nat'l guard everywhere before next Saturday we'll really be in it.
Thing is, these protests are SMALL. It's like a couple hundred people maybe, at the Home Depot?
There were more yesterday at the ICE building in DT. But still not that many. This isn't an insurrection, and even LAPD isn't doing more than keeping people away from the ICE teams.
But TFG wants more, so he's calling up the CA National Guard, so he can START something.
I hate this country right now. Ugh.
Also hate: I had one migraine in almost three months…and then today, last Saturday, and the Saturday before, had to take meds and waste most of the day trying to feel better. wtf body. Do not appreciate.
