I got the Eversense 365 continuous glucose monitor (CGM) and so far it is fantastic. Almost 2 weeks and my arm is healing well, and no pain. I'm getting used to the vibration alerts. The adhesive is the best and never irritating and even adjustable.

Basically, the YouTube reviews are all spot on.

Trying to figure out if people are posting about a card game or some terrible person.

When acronyms collide.

Alright, bear with me. Idea for an urban fantasy novel. Rent is high, itty bitty living space doesn't come with phenomenal cosmic power, good luck on groceries beyond ramen and Skeeti Os, and your utilities will require you to sell your blood.

One day you find a ad-listing too good to be true!

Time to plan next spring's garden. I did meh with plants this year but had a few. I'm thinking strawberries, maybe tomatoes or something, and flowers. Marigolds and lots of random, mixed, and wild flowers. I don't tame the wild well, so let's work with it.

Wondering if AI was made and is purported by people who are afraid of being lonely. You know, aside from the obvious reasons.

What's an unexpected annoyance you sometimes have to do to manage a chronic illness? No context.

I'll start: Drinking soda or juice right after brushing my teeth.

An old friend gave me a sewing machine some time ago. Finally got her out to make sure she can run.

I think she's going to fly.

Cannot figure out why my Dexcom G7, which is working, keeps not connecting to my Omnipod 5. The apps don’t need updates, I keep restarting bluetooth and the phone. Inconsistent results.

Sorry, I don’t go for AI art. I mean, sorry not sorry.

When soccer games switch around what service is showing live games and I don't want to pay for four different streaming services to watch one or two games a week (max) and my antena can't pick up local channels anymore....

Realization revelation:
I’ve long seen myself as better at communicating through writing, and I think it’s primarily from these reasons.

1. Editing is a beautiful option.
2. It’s much harder to interrupt written form.
3. Someone stopping to read what I’ve written actually cares to hear me out.

Played through the main game and 91% of Little Kitty, Big City.

Delightful, funny, great for fans of Stray who want a non-violent, low stakes, chill time to hop around and mew at every which thing. I'm looking forward to completing the last nine percent and getting all the goodies.

I did! I got the car warmed up!

Also, then remembering, girl you still have to wash your face and get your butt out the door.

And please save time to preelwarm the car.

Having a surprisingly pleasant slow breakfast time, reading a bunch of powerful book recs (see quoted post). My feelings are finally shifting this past 6-12 months from I *should* (guilt or shame) read more to I WANT to read more.

It's a good feeling.
performative reading, lack of reading skills, nobody's reading anymore -- NO!

tell me about a book that changed you

for me? the *extremely* ahistorical novel, THE AGONY AND THE ECSTASY which I read at 13 and was like, "Oh, art can be *everything* to a maker, for good and bad"

Little Kitty, Big City

I haven't laughed and giddily giggled this hard while playing a video game in a minute. This game was made for me!

Horror movie scene:
Hiding in a public restroom stall, door shut, feet up on the seat.

Then.

The autoflush sensor gives the hiding person away.

I watched Spontaneous the other day and it's still sitting with me.
