…into a little ball, and close my eyes. Preferably with cats, and snuggly blankets. Today was one of those days. It was uneventful, for me anyways. Mark had to get up at oh my god in the morning and drive to the train into Chicago for a job interview. But I got to stay in […]
Back at the end of the last semester – fall 2012 – after the cookie party, but before Christmas (like 2 weeks ago <grin>), I was pretty sure there was something seriously wrong with me, incipient Alzheimer’s, brain tumor, something really bad – because it hurt to think. Christmas break wasn’t nearly long enough – […]
So, now that the election’s over, it’s back to life as usual, right? It’s been a lost week for me, 26 student advising appointments at work, election day as a poll worker, and a cold … or maybe it’s strep. I do have a stuff to cook list again, not in my phone, but in […]
The LITA Forum wrapped up on Sunday with a virtual presentation from Sarah Houghton, the librarian in black, titled Library Future: Star Trek or Starbucks? Sarah was really good when she stuck to the Starbucks analogy – what could libraries do better if we did it more like Starbucks? – but towards the end, she […]
I just don’t think I’ll ever catch up, and this being perpetually sick stuff doesn’t help either. I finished grading Monday at about 5:30, came home and made some dinner, and mostly laid around. Watched the Game of Thrones I’d been too sleepy to really see on Sunday. And then this morning at 7:00 a.m. […]

Today I searched “middle aged women fatigue” in MedlinePlus”, and the first thing was Subacute thyroiditis. It’s every symptom I’ve […]
For weeks I’ve had achey glands in my neck and groin. Kinda fatigued. Pain in my right shoulder and upper thigh on the same side – sometimes I limp when I get up from sitting. Yesterday I had a bellyache, and today I’m still a little iffy – but we think that’s because the milk […]
On Saturday, I had breakfast quesadillas – I made an egg pancake with cubes of roasted squash (leftover from last Wednesday’s pizza) and onions sauteed with a dash of smoked paprika, then grilled it inside flour tortillas with some cheese. Eaten with sour cream & salsa – but the pictures with the condiments didn’t look […]
