Sometimes Poe is very orange, so his current new favorite toy is one of the fuzzy worm things that came in the package of spare feather toy parts. Sometimes Poe is smart enough to not just ask for catnip, but to then run to that toy and wait for me to cover it in catnip.

A mile on the rowing machine is a kinda sad workout but at least it’s a workout?

There are times I wish I felt way more comfortable being assertive but I think that was crushed out of me as a kid so I’m just going to keep telling myself that it’s probably just people being busy, even if it’s been a pattern for 2+ years

When the players respond to hearing that the NPC they may have caused some bad things to happen to will be back until she’s dead with “this is so scary holy shit. Queen” that’s when you know you did something right at the larp

So I’m seeing a lot of folks pointing out that trans folks are the first target but not the last, that you can’t assume you’re safe. And that’s true. But for fuck’s sake, we need to care about the very real people being hurt right now, the trans folks, the immigrants. Center them and their lives.

Ugh, I was up all night coughing and while I’m improving I have been dealing with coughing fits that suck

Ugh, I know I need to eat but my appetite is so shitty right now that even ice cream isn’t tempting. This bug suuuuuuuucks

I’m sick and feeling terrible, but at least based on home tests it’s not Covid or flu. Still. Blah.

I’m somewhat less emotionally bad than last night and way worse physically. I started my Sigil costume at long last though so yay?

Bleh. I have hit “I should just accept that none of the cats want me to do anything other than give them their food” so I think I’m going to go the bed and hope that this is from some combination of hormones and the med crosstaper in a “gets worse before it gets better” phase

Today is a really, really hard day for some reason. Not helped by the fact that I woke up feeling bad but I also can’t stop crying because the cats are indifferent at best to me and I’m struggling to stop the spiral towards “maybe it’s just that I am utterly unlikable to human and cat” right now.

It’s day 2 of the great meds switchover. Which is far too early to make any determinations on whether it is helping. But I did actually let out a rant about feeling apprehensive about something instead of bottling it as has been typical for the last 40 years, so yay?

I have an absolutely awful migraine, but my 8 am psych appointment is done and I’m feeling optimistic about new meds. Now I have to make it through a meeting.

Today has been a day. I woke up down and then we had an impromptu trip to the vet for Poe (he’s home and seems to be ok now) and I just…am in an outrageously bad mood right now.

social media should be safe for trans people. therefore, social media should be unsafe for transphobes. pass it on.

What a great day to wake up with my hip aching deep into the joint.

My household’s holiday gift to itself was a Litter Robot. So far it’s pretty decent if the boys would stop interrupting its cleaning cycle because they’re curious. And by boys I mean Poe.

It doesn’t help that as always at social/hype discussion gatherings, I cannot seem to get myself heard over the loud and talkative people to save my life. I’m tired of people running me over.
