That’s great, msbelle!

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

That's a good phrase for it. Thanks.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Had my appointment yesterday with my PCP. Good news- my triglycerides are way down, and are now in the normal range.(Good cholesterol is still bit low) Yay for statins!
Tomorrow we are flying to Seattle for WorldCon. Should be fun, and nice to get away from the temperatures in the 90s predicted here for the rest of the week.

Yeah, our heatwave in Seattle is supposed to break tonight. I had to dip out of work early because my computer wasn't having it with the temperature.

Have fun storming the Worldcon!

PMM, that sounds worse than when my phone overheats and shuts itself off. I feel like I decide it’s too hot to keep working before my laptop does.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
I kind of forgot that I'm a delicate flower when it comes to side effects from drugs, and Zepbound is sadly no exception. I did my first shot Sunday night, and Monday night and last night I had insomnia, plus last night I had bonus reflux in the middle of the night. These are apparently typical side effects, and it's only been a couple of days, so my guess is they'll subside. But man, insomnia is a bitch.

Our wings are not tired.
I've found I have to stop eating at 7 PM if I expect to sleep. I've taken Omeprazole forever for the reflux, but I might not need it anymore since I never eat in the evening.

Yeah definitely find I can’t eat close to bedtime because of possible reflux. But then again, before I started the drugs I had reflux all the time so…still better. Insomnia didn’t hit me though—more fatigue (which was likely also due in part to not getting enough calories at times!)
