Had the procedure yesterday, today am seeing 20/20 with very minimal discomfort (one eye just kinda feels like having an old contact in it). It’s pretty incredible!

Just fuck em. If you can help it please don’t do hard drugs and if you do please for the love of god be careful. Fentanyl is fucking dangerous and it’s everywhere.

Welp, my other half has accepted a pretty phenomenal job offer in the Philadelphia area, so as soon as I find a job there we will be relocating from DC!

My local public schools have announced they are closing on Wednesday due to the women’s strike. They had over 300 requests for leave.

As you refill your prescriptions for the first time in 2017, make sure you pay attention to what you’re being charged or contact your insurance to make sure they are still covered.

Sharing this with GT as I thought it might be of interest, and it’s an example of some fantastic investigative journalism from a small newspaper:

Hello! Seeking any must do, must see, must eat/drink recommendations you have for Charleston, SC. I’ll be there for a couple days next month just for a getaway.

I’m looking for decent quality high-waisted ponte weight leggings. Preferably under $50. Doesn’t need to be specifically ponte but a similar weight; non-see thru and won’t look like tights if my entire butt isn’t covered while wearing them. I want ones that are actually high waisted enough for someone with a bigger…

I am guessing our DC GTers have heard about the impending year+ long mega clusterfuck that will be the Metrorail system. In case you haven’t, check it out: http://www.wmata.com/Images/Mrel/MF…

NYC peeps, give me some of your faves for dinner. Stipulations are: mid-priced (pref. entree under $25), within a shortish cab ride from Midtown, any kind of food except sushi, and preferably no reservation needed on a Wednesday night (though I can make one if need be).

Update update: She passed away last night, confirmed this morning.

My update to the other day’s musings - we visited the place that was top on our list, it was as good as we thought, so we put down a deposit and reserved a spot. Yay!

A couple observations/questions from my apartment hunt -

Hello! Just wanted to update you all on my biking situation after I asked for advice a few weeks ago.

Hello friends! i am 100% fed up with the DC metro and very seriously considering biking to work. i have no idea what i’m doing, however, and biking scares me, so i’m hoping you can point me in the direction of some good resources.

Thanks for all the support thru our kitty saga. Last night we had ice cream for dinner because we didn’t feel like eating and got out of the house a bit. Today we’re going to put away his stuff because it’s really hard to look at, and try to get out again because sitting here is hard.

Check in on kitty - it’s not good at all. He is likely not coming home with me. I’m just waiting for my husband to get here to make the decision really. He’s on fluids and being warmed right now but his body temp and blood pressure are very low.
