today’s plan: sip as much pho broth as I can throughout the day, pray the cough syrup works and helps me nap, continue act 3 of baldur’s gate 3, continue to be the poster child for why it’s important to tell folks you or someone in your household is sick before they come over for the holidays

the news is horrific, I just paid a small fortune in customs fees for a necessary item, and I’m on day 7 of this cold/cough with no end in sight
December 5, 2025 at 5:21 PM
made it to act 3 of baldur’s gate 3 for the first time with my star druid/open hand monk wood elf tav, and now of course I’m starting to think about what character I’ll want to play next even when I’ve still got a lot of game left to play

sick day 5

I’m at a really gross part of Baldur’s Gate 3 and I genuinely hate it #bg3

seems extra cruel that I’d wake up with a migraine ON TOP of this cold I’ve been fighting
December 3, 2025 at 4:51 PM
so annoyed about being sick right now

can’t tell if sick sick or chronically ill sick

been sick so long and been through so much medically and yet still I’m like: “is this real? did I make this up? am I doing this to myself?” #ChronicIllness

if you are sick and you have a family gathering please for the love of god tell your family before they show up so they can make a decision for themselves

was told to make enough cookies for 11 adults and 5 kids so I just made 60-some

(the sad thing is my gastroparesis isn’t letting me eat more than half a cookie without getting nausea right now)

do you pet scratch and the owlbear cub every long rest or are you a monster

maybe I’ll go all in on Christmas this year to try and feel something akin to joy

I’m not sure there’s a sound I love more than my dog’s snores
November 25, 2025 at 6:55 PM
I hate thanksgiving 🤷🏻‍♀️

my main complaint about my ereader (a kindle colorsoft) is that it’s too big
November 24, 2025 at 7:51 PM
I do not want to go to PT. I want to read all day instead 😭

(Also last time I was there a weeklong migraine was triggered)

I finished Piranesi by Susanna Clarke last night and I loved it. couldn’t help but read it through a chronic illness lens, given my current state of flare and such. and then I found out after I finished it that Clarke has CFS/ME, so now that lens feels deliberate

my partner knows my migraine meds are working when I get chatty out of nowhere

this morning

my nyt crossword streak is 376 days

my gastroparesis is terrible right now, and I’m really hoping this is a short-term blip and not a long-term thing
November 22, 2025 at 12:43 AM
most of the stuff we’re being told is urgent or breaking news is neither
November 21, 2025 at 5:10 PM
went to pottery class and made stuff. now time to sink back into depressive hyperfixation on baldur’s gate 3 🫠

but I’m gonna shower at least, and wash my hair (the latter of which is long overdue because we still don’t have any cold water in our shower for the fourth week and counting)
November 20, 2025 at 9:25 PM
very foggy today. I missed multiple turns on my drive to the pottery studio today 😵‍💫
