Every so often, you find a lyric that just catches you. This week, I decided to do my subject line from Halestorm lyrics. And I've heard this song before, but I don't know if I picked up on every single lyric. But looking at it, I think this is going on the playlist next to Pink's "All I Know So Far," for lyrics/songs that make me feel like I can do anything. "I am the one I've been waiting for." is going to go right next to "You might give yourself away, and pay full price for each mistake" for turns of phrase that just hit me in the right place.



Yesterday was 100% a Monday. We were bonkers at work. I ended up taking 56 calls, plus filling in three separate Cardiac CTs that opened up in the next week, each of which took a few calls to find people who could fill in. After work, I relaxed for a moment, then cooked some beef and carrots for dinner. The beef was tough as hell, but the carrots turned out nicely. I made them with olive oil, molasses, paprika and salt. They were really good. Slightly sweet, slightly salty. They all got eaten, so I must have done something right!

Jess has mentioned it on Bluesky, so I figure I'll put it here as well. They're starting the process to get top surgery. As long as I've known them, they've hated that part of their body, and the fact that it's too full to effectively bind. We'd put it off as a "when dad is gone, we can look into reduction." But lately, I've been noticing that it's been bothering them a lot, so I brought up the thought of full top surgery, and having chest masculinization vs reduction. It seems like the recovery period is pretty comparable, and our insurance covers either, so they decided to go for the one they really want. Hopkins has a surgery center, but it requires a few hoops to get an appointment, so we've started on those. The hope is that sometime towards fall or the beginning of winter they'll be able to get surgery.

The drama with the forgotten/lost IRA of my uncle's continues. My sister called yesterday, since we'd sent our paperwork in. They weren't able to tell her today how much it's worth, but promised to call back today with the info. It's still murky to me as to whether this is going to go into the estate, or since Dad was dead before they contacted us, if it will come directly to us. Hopefully we'll know something today.

In exciting news, our realtor has actually sold the house! We'll have about 30 days to get shit out, so Jess and Shelly may go over this weekend and get what they want. I've spent enough time in the house for the last week, so I'm just going to stay here with the dog. Plus, I found just about everything I've needed. And I don't think I'm going to find the rest, so I'm just going to make like Elsa and let it go.

I guess when we look at it like that, it was a fairly eventful day! And on that note, I'm going to go forth and consider getting ready for work. Everyone have a stellar Tuesday!
