RFK: “Where did all this autism come from? It never existed when I was a kid!”

“A Christmas Story”, a 1983 movie based on a 1971 memoir about a childhood in the 1930s: “This is my brother Ralphie. He has a ton of sensory issues and behaviors we don’t understand. Every family has a child like him.”

One dog finished their antibiotics today and one dog started throwing up from their antibiotics today. Just the trials and tribulations of running an unlicensed doggie hospice.

In my dream I was standing next to my bed trying to get the day started and then I fell back down into the bed and woke up lying down. My brain is not subtle.

I am home alone, not feeling well, not sleeping well and for some reason the only thing I am watching are clips of horror movies. Why am I like this?

Although I still have 99 files to go. I literally have 99 problems and they are all unprocessed data files.
I trimmed, filtered out spurious data points, and calibrated 27 in vivo (force, sono, and EMG) data sets today. It sounds less impressive than the mental toll it took on me.

Dream me apparently plays a game that requires you to say “I think the kettle is black” in some order or else you have to toothpicks filled with pickled onions and olives in a specific order. I don’t get it, but it seemed like everyone was having a good time

My spidey sense for a dog trying to get out of bed in the middle of the night is too good. Whether it be 1am, 3am or 5:30am- if a dog is up to no good (AKA not sleeping) I am awake.

Maybe one day I’ll stop coughing. I can’t take the dirty looks in public anymore. (I know I’m not sick or contagious anymore, cause I already had a fever for several days. Thank you CDC for health information).
