Staying comfortable and still has always been a strength of mine.
I saw Johnny Pneumonic at a full 11 PM show in a college town and the intoxicated and festive atmosphere was honestly way more memorable than the movie itself.
Raising the always fun question: What are your most memorable theater-going experiences?
Mine also include The Matrix, Blair Witch, and being way too stoned in Belgium when Fellowship of the Ring was sold out so we sat in the back row for Mulholland Drive instead.

It was hands-down one of the most memorable theater-going experiences I can remember, a collective 30-minute butt-clench/armrest-grab for the final climb. And we knew he lived! Wild.

I am able to get away with basically anything right now, and I aim to take advantage of it like in that episode of Stargate with a timeloop except instead of driving a go cart inside the house, I am going to make a truly obscene amount of cookies this weekend. No one will have the heart to stop me!

A passerby just told me I look like the Fairy Godmother from Shrek 2 in a good way. What??

Honestly, what is the point of any of this if we can’t get real weird with it?

I had photos of my friends’ cats and dogs printed out and put them in the dogs’ hideyhole. It’s SORT OF a pet gallery wall?

Someone should write an academic paper on the effect Knowing One is About to Be In Intractable Pain for Months and/or Years has on a person in the weeks before the pain starts. It is wearing me out every single day, knowing what is coming.

I need to bring this rant here instead of cluttering the other page. Follow along with me while I google my dad and try to figure out what the hell his job was before he retired.

Weird things yesterday and today were “unnecessary second Christmas tree decorated with plastic flowers” and “that same tree but with a skeleton in it.”

It is time to hand off my clients to others in my firm and I do not care for this. I know they will be taken care but I want to be the one who takes care of them. If you need me, I plan to sulk the rest of the day.

I always tell people to play to their natural strengths if they are going to litigate. For example, I come from a long line of passive aggressive Midwestern moms, so if OC is a dick to me, my sole goal becomes to make them feel real bad about being mean.

I suddenly find myself with two perfectly fine artificial Christmas trees and I think the only reasonable move is to use one as a regular Christmas tree and do something… else… with the other one.

Everyone is still being super nice and I feel compelled to make it weird, but how?!
I have until Christmas without pain, and then it is go time. I seem to be doing well with it the last week or so, which is a nice break. This week I seem to be full of calm, slowing down and enjoying things. Everyone in my life is being super nice to me, which isn’t bad when I can ignore why.

I don’t want to go be a lawyer today. I want to sit in my bed and watch videos of people putting clothes on cats.

I have a very short list of foods that I consider so healthy they are actually medicine and generally they are awful to eat. I am thrilled to share my new food medicine recipe of unsweetened cranberry juice and fizzy water mixed together. Medicine AND actually edible.
