Evening (well morning for me) Jezzies!

What’s everyone drinking?

Well, about 2 months ago I posted about my inlaws moving to our town and I have been uneasily tolerating it, but now I’m pretty pissed.

Been there! Do not barf. It will not help, and you will damage yoyour teeth and esophagus. Instead, drink water or tea. It will help increase your sense of fullness and also help flush your system out.

Today I had a lesson in how the good lord giveth and then taketh away. I had an internship lined up in my field and then they went with someone else. So to make myself feel better I booked a trip to Iceland. And yesterday evening I went to a midnight showing of The Room and on our way there, my friend V’s gf, who I…

Us introverts feel a lot of pressure to socialize. I say respect your rhythms and make your life as pleasant as possible. Friends will come, even if it takes a while. 

I’m a long time lurker, might not get much attention, but here goes...

The following may be triggering to people with eating disorders, or body image issues:

6 months after my dad died and I think I need to make some changes but I know that I should wait 6 more months to be sure.

Shameless plugs! I applied to and was invited to join a museum education steering retreat and I’m so stoked! The best part is that the woman who chose the attendees is one of my heroes! What is awesome in your life??

Upsetting news...

Friends. I’m approaching the “one year and go see your doctor” point in trying for kids. I live in the U.K., and the rules for IVF (if the issue is me) in my area effectively exclude my husband and I. We could take take out loans to pay for it privately, but it would be crippling. And it might be my husband, in which…

Happy Thanksgiving to all. (Ours has to be in October. By November at this latitude it gets harder to muster much gratitude.)

My elderly cat is dying (but still using the litterbox - thank the GODS), my mother is snippy with me because of the anti-Trump FB posts I’ve made today, and I survived Hurricane Matthew. I dicked around with my hormone meds and made myself woozy earlier in the week, but I think I got everything sorted (yet still have…

the weather gods have graced Nova Scotia with the most ridiculously amazing weather this week. Even if it all goes to rain tomorrow, I can’t complain after getting 25 and sun on Tgiving weekend.

So I took my first practice LSAT today without studying for it to get a baseline. First try is a 152, a point above the national average and 11 points above the average for my school.

Anyone around these parts know anything about breast imaging? I’m in my early 30s and am having mega boob trubs lately so my doctor ordered an ultrasound rather than a mammogram - I’m wondering why. Didn’t have a chance to ask her during the appointment. Hopefully it’ll provide an answer for why my boobs hurt like…

Blee. Sorry I didn’t get back to anyone last week, I have hit a pit and appear to not be getting out. I’ve spent the week rotating between my bed and my sofa - it very much looks like I’ll have to extend my sick leave. No news on whether I have / had cancer or not yet, but I have finally been given an appointment…

I just moved out of the room I was renting from a woman. I paid her for half a month before I even moved in, and then she gave me a notice to vacate five days after I arrived. (Did she have a conversation with me about it first? No.) She claimed that she was renting to a friend, but soon after I found a Craigslist ad…

I’m really proud of this stunt I pulled on my neighbor:
