Somehow I've started getting recruiter emails addressed to <deadname> but only at my /work/ email address 🤨

I gotta say the Sunday scaries are less bad now that I've got two weeks of PTO coming up at the end of the month

Rude of the weather to be briefly nice enough to tempt me to get back into jogging and then almost immediately get hot

Oof the migraine Botox shots have angered some of my tiny face muscles more that usual 😖

Noooooooooo I have to itemize my taxes, what a disaster

I've started a beta blocker (finally got to see a cardiologist about POTS) and my insurance actually approved dupixent the third go around for the hives!!!

It's a good thing that I understand that pharmacy benefits and medical benefits are often separate and the medical benefits provider will deny pharmaceutical requests because the benefits coordinator at my doctor's office benefits coordinator sure didn't seem to know this!!!

WOW uhc processed my appeal for my September OON claim which means...I am finally all caught up? Once the direct deposit goes through it will be the first time in 18 months that my insurance company has not owed me THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS???

Coordinating someone else's long distance travel to/from new haven is a logistical nightmare, there are many options of plane + train(s) and they are all kinda terrible

My new apartment has a beautiful gas stove with like an enamel interior and I HATE it because the heat goes everywhere and I get hives and it exacerbates the POTS and cooking is already hard enough

Sometimes your (my) body just needs to sleep for 20 hours straight for no apparent reason, normal part of having a body

Best thing about working with people from SF, Europe, Argentina, and India from the east coast is that I am the least likely to be asked to join a meeting at either my 7 am or my 8 pm. Worst thing: I very frequently have a giant block of meeting from like 11-2 so I have no time to eat lunch

“If it goes away when you take your meds it’s probably not a character flaw” is something I have to tell myself often.

I am finally being forced to upgrade my 6 year old corporate iPhone because it is "EOL" and "no longer receiving iOS updates"

Piglet is deeply traumatized by us moving stuff out of the apartment and the movers don't even come until tomorrow 😬

Six months late but I have finally ordered my birthday present (coverstitch machine) AND it was an open box so on sale AND it is getting shipped to my new apartment so I don't have to move it!

The 3.5 years I lived in this apartment I am currently moving out of is the longest I have lived anywhere since I moved out of my parents house when I was 17.
