Sena's DW :: Watermelon Life

Well, with the bandaids on my BUTCHERED finger I can still type but it's a little more difficult, I misspell things and have to go back and fix them more often and that sort of thing. Also there is minor pain? But only minor, I can withstand it. Still can't work on jewelry, I don't think, but I might try tonight and see how it goes? The worst that happens is that I try and it's a no-go and I have to put it away again. I CAN still paint, though, which is good because I still have three-and-a-half Wiggly Foxes to finish up for Christmas. :D;;

BUT I can't do the WORMS for the axolotls, which I guess I should have thought of before I cut my finger to ribbons, so for now the boys are on a strictly pellets diet and are... grumpy. But still eating, so that's good at least. I think tonight I'm going to give them some bloodworms and hopefully that'll cheer them up again, at least temporarily.

In related news, there is something in the axolotl aquarium that is making a GLUG sound and that is not a sound you want from your 'lotl tank so I'll have to explore that later. Somehow without getting my mangled finger wet. I can see this going SWIMMINGLY.

I finished writing Wayward Daughters (#28) and IMMEDIATELY started into Halcyon Days (#29) instead of Temper Tantrums (#6) which is the next one I SHOULD be writing because OF COURSE I DID. But I just got into a MOOD with Wayward Daughters and that story carries on into Halcyon Days, so I just kind offffff... *shrug* I dunno. I really do need to get to Temper Tantrums, though, and then Hunting Souls, and then Shrike. I need to build up a larder so I have stuff to post after Storm Season is through so I have time to finish the rest of the one-shots. I SHOULD HAVE THOUGHT OF THIS BEFORE CONCEPTUALIZING THIRTY OF THEM. THIRTY.

Speaking of Storm Season, though, I finally, since November is over and it's a THURSDAY!! posted the first chapter of it and it actually is doing pretty well so far. In the first 24 hours it's got 57 hits, 2 bookmarks, 6 kudos and 1 comment, which I KNOW doesn't sound like much but compared to Horror High's start it's STELLAR. The one comment was a person who said, basically, "I know you keep saying no one is reading this, but I love this series and look forward to every instalment." ...which was really nice. I know a FEW people are following the Horror High series, I just get so little feedback sometimes it SEEMS like no one does, you know?

This morning I had to be up super early and drink a ton of water because I had an ultrasound appointment at the hospital in regards to my PCOS and NAFLD. They wanted a full bladder ultrasound, an empty bladder ultrasound, and an INTERNAL ULTRASOUND?? I shut that down REAL quick. Dr. K knows better than to ask for those from me, it's not going to happen. I'll talk to her about it when I'm next in, I guess. Which reminds me, I need to go in for blood work before my next appointment as well.

I'm so sleepy today. All I want to do it lay down for a nap, but I have to start dinner prep in like 15 minutes so that's out of the question. I hate Fridays.

As of yesterday afternoon, I've been tentatively diagnosed with Fatty Liver Disease, which is... not good. ANY liver disease is Not Good. I have an ultrasound to confirm how bad it is coming up in December. Like I needed something new to add to my fucking REPERTOIRE of shit that I've already got going. Might as well just lay down and die at this point. idk. Just seems like I was born to suffer from day one until the end. Sucks.

Anyway.

They also told me I showed signs of PCOS and I was like "...I was diagnosed with PCOS TWENTY YEARS AGO ALREADY." THEY just stopped TREATING IT when I had my hysterectomy, even though they left my ovaries in FOR SOME GODDAMNED REASON. *FACEPALM* Literally I have been a squeaky wheel about getting my PCOS treated ever since my hysterectomy because ??? It's not just gonna go away because you took the rest out??? And NOW they're going "GASP! WE THINK YOU HAVE PCOS!" Fucking... idiots.
