Lupus is the worst, keep fighting, and congratulations on the A!

Thank you! I’m very positive about the prognosis, it looks to be just a “blip” of an illness - as far as it seems, even the treatment is very mild. That somewhat eased the sting, I couldn’t face the sort of things people with aggressive cancers have to go through.

Back in them olde days (when I was a teen), I knitted scarves like this (all I ever learned) and had no fraying issues. Is your yarn some kind of “Angora” or super soft something? It looks very soft and non-machine washable. Maybe that’s the problem (that isn’t really a problem?). Check some forums online. You’ll…

That’s pretty yarn.

Mmmmm. I would eat the heck out of that dish. Sounds awesome.

I’m sorry for you’re crappy parents, it’s really hard to take the high road when your parents know how to push your buttons. And I’m very sorry for your diagnosis but I’m pretty impressed at your positive attitude.

Congratulations! 🎉🎉🎉

Good! CPCs can kiss my ass. Giving women bullshit and misinformation is not in the interest of public health.

I made pimiento cheese burgers with a carrot-collard slaw from Blue Apron. It was pretty fab! But the biggest hit at my house lately was this swedish meatball recipe. SO INCREDIBLE.

This seems like a good enough space to vent about something that happened to me this weekend. I’ve been talking to a guy online. He pushed for a photo exchange and a phone number exchange.

Sawbones and Stuff You Missed in History Class are my absolute favs podcasts, although Radiolab is usually pretty good (although personally I find they overdo it on the music and sound effects. I just want the story, dammit.)

Stay safe!

I wouldn’t want anything related to Trump or pussygate to remind me of this tragic time. I hope other people have a lighter disposition than me!

I recently completed this bookmark based on a Steven Universe titlecard. Was a nightmare to do, as I kept losing concentration, and also plastic canvas is murder on the old fingeroonies!

good news:

I have to go to a leadership conference for special education this week. I’m looking forward to it. I had my first meeting for the state. It was great going to it and finding out what they’re doing in my state.

Evening (well morning for me) Jezzies!
