Status report: Hives 3x this week, no migraines. Life is short moments to note: 1. A baby hike that was fully squishy. I am not the fittest person. I don’t really go outdoors for fear of frogs. But I actually like the baby hikes that are frog free is what I realize. Two years of… Read more

Status report: Zero migraines, 1 hangover. Thanks yakult for absorbing that soju. 1. My first baseball game. I’m not a sports fan, but people coming together for a common (fun) cause is exciting. Went with colleagues and I barely understood what was going on (thankful to one coworker who was explaining the rules), but I… Read more

Status report: 1 migraine, way too much whiskey. My liver is certainly getting a workout from funner things here. This week’s Life is Short moments: 1. Finally meeting a teammate after a year.

Status report: 3 full days of migraines, 2 tylenol and 1 ibuprofen for breakfast. Cooking my liver in not fun ways. 1. Catching up with a friend and getting into new habits for good.

Status report: Maybe I’m giving myself migraines with my stupidity. 1. Tamales week. Lame but I cannot for the life of me find corn husks to make this at home. So every time my favorite Mexican place has them, I have to order. So it’s been 2 dozen tamales over (less than) a week. 2.… Read more

Status check: 3 days of insomnia versus 6, not bad. Tylenol is a godsend. 1. Going on a day out of silly things. Sister and mom and I went to just go out. Ran into a friend I haven’t seen in like 6 years and his mom, who I also adore. It was such a… Read more

Status check: Ibuprofen no longer works alone. Tylenol or a diphenhydramine add is needed. Or maybe I just need to actually fall asleep for more than 3 hours a day. Last week’s moments: 1. Going down the rabbit hole. I am in a sociological experiment that is bound to produce horrific results. It’s going to… Read more
