Assorted & misc
Sep. 1st, 2024 09:01 pmNew icon: a link rot / broken link / fixing broken links icon, via the Noun Project. Attribution in the note, but I have in fact altered it somewhat: flipped everything, unflipped the text, colored some things in
catescates.com.au is at least somewhat backed up by archive.org (did I cry? yes, I cried when I had to go to the archive to find the recipe I referenced for JD)
It's not the Unicorn Latte but it tastes like pink:
vanilla instant breakfast
unflavored collagen protein powder
near-boiling water
half and half
unwise whipping with the milk vibrator
a little bit of rose syrup (in the rose & raspberry blend)
some raspberry syrup (Torani Red Raspberry, because milk)
a little more than that of strawberry (sno-cone) syrup
FUCK NOT THAT MUCH
*slurp slurp slurp*
spiced chai concentrate & more half and half
(repeat until Less Pink)
Eventually it seemed Edible.
I liberated one of my less-favorite pill organizers for Steph
I explained why so many pill organizers were Rong
Yet again, I am Le Tired.
Duolingo streak continues, despite my best efforts. On principle, I refuse to stretch to meet a more-than-30 item monthly goal, but I am not above getting two items done in one day to absorb the days when I forget completely.
Book: progressing in uneven lumps.
Thumb: still sometimes clicky and painful, but responding to Voltaren and splinting and rest.
Toe: left little toe had Sudden No Visible Bruise pain. I thought it was neuropathy but then realized that it was real pain, no idea what from. Thanks, lidocaine/prilocaine cream! I only had to use that for a few days before it started feeling like it could touch a surface without endless woe.
Partner: reading to them a Tumblr post about Fox News demonizing libraries, real librarians coming in to talk about how they would (theoretically) approach a program that was, you know, drug-fuelled orgies: with snacks and appropriate readings
Punch line: my addition to the post: "And some librarians know how to make tacos!" had my partner (already on the floor) turning pink and slapping the floor while laughing
Bodies in general: it's possible that I may need to adjust my blood pressure medication downwards but I'm going to wait on that for my new provider, probably
brains: going to talk to psych about reducing primary antidepressant, given that the reason for increasing it was ADHD, and the worst of the cancer stuff seems to be behind me for now (I can hope) -- that may give me a little more room for some other stuff going on
