I’ve been talking about Alysa Liu’s story about her quitting skating only to come back and become even better because she did it for herself and this came to me in a dream…

I think often of Snowmaggedon 2015 where my roommates and I looked out the window and saw the outline of a perfect limbs-spread person shape in the snow on our street. There were no signs of anyone climbing out of there. Perhaps they’re there still

My PCP told me my endo was β€œwell controlled,” told me there was no way the inflammation indicators in my blood tests were a recurrence, I had to get an entirely new ob-gyn… and guess what? When they opened me up on Monday, I had stage IV endo again.

ALSO, to my endometriosiblings, this is your regular reminder to be a huge pain in the ass about your body. I had an excision of stage IV endo back in 2022, my old doctor basically considered it cured, and when I tried to get reevaluated this year, they fully brushed me off.

I just reluctantly canceled some Sunday plans because I realized if anyone eats in my vicinity I will become a really terrible person 😭

I’m walking down the street looking at the restaurants around me and thinking things like β€œoh man I can’t eat at Bagelsaurus on Sunday πŸ˜­β€ even though I was not eating at Bagelsaurus on Sunday to begin with

I learned today that I have to do a clear liquid diet the day before my surgery, and then immediately afterwards I learned just how food-motivated I am

Someone asked me recently if, between my kidney stone last October, all the endo-related testing, and all the pre-op appointments, I'd gotten desensitized to my needle-phobia at all in the last year. Which would rock. But unfortunately, no

To all doctors!!! Stop stealing my blood!!! Unauthorized theft of blood will not be subject to any consequences but WILL make me cranky and a bit queasy, so best to avoid it altogether!

Thank you Mary!! Thankfully I’ve got a little over a week to make sure I am thoroughly In Snacks. Still need to hit the all important Trader Joe’s run

Trying to gather all the essentials before my uterus eviction (the ute boot, if you will) in a week and a half. The problem is that my heart keeps confusing 'essentials' with 'a $60 multi-pack of Bjorn Qorn'

Hello! Thank you so much for asking! I've been planning on this, but I haven't set things up with the bookstore yet - I'll get in touch with them and let you know once it's all ready to go! And thank you for supporting my books!!
