Can we just not? in Ponderings of the Universe
So, yeah. This sucks. The newer update makes me feel a little better but I don’t like the feeling of everything being in limbo. I plan to stay until I hear that PB is for sure shutting down. I h...
Too Much Adulting in Ponderings of the Universe
I adulted so hard today! I did my taxes. Ugh. But that’s done, so yay! I also signed up for a 401(k). That process was incredibly irritating. The website kept stalling at the same point for the e...
Such Tired. in Ponderings of the Universe
Work has been kicking my ass lately. We’ve been so busy. I don’t know if we’ve been unseasonably busy, if it’s because we’re short a doctor with H on maternity leave, or both. My 4 hour half day...
Oops in Ponderings of the Universe

Cars and Crying in Ponderings of the Universe

November 31st? in Ponderings of the Universe
I felt weird not writing after writing every day for a month. So here I am, writing, with not a whole lot to say. Today was kinda crazy at work. Very busy and lots of difficult humans. I didn’t e...

Cheese in Ponderings of the Universe
Stanley is whining at me. He likes to stare at me from the ground while I’m in bed and whine, even though he is fully capable of jumping up on the bed. Sometimes I’ll get down from bed and try to...

perfect pocket pittie in Ponderings of the Universe
One of my most favorite things in the world to do is wake up slowly, lie in bed, snuggle Aaron and the dogs, then read stuff on my phone. It is the best way to start my day :) Aaron and I have a ...

Foot Licker in Ponderings of the Universe
Harvey is curled up between my legs, alternating between intently licking his paws and intently licking the bottom of my foot. It tickles but is also adorable. Ugh. Saturdays at work. It was slow...
Pie in Ponderings of the Universe
I’m so sleepy. It was super busy at work today. I had a complicated case with a diagnosis I’ve never given before, so doing research took me quite a bit of time. I hope treatment works. I made c...
