    Alright, so updates: First thing, I broke the fish tank. How? Well, I fell. And then kicked a hole in the side, somehow without slicing the shit out of my foot. #trulyblessed So in essence, I did figure out what to do with the fish tank? Second, I actually funneled all of my annoyance at…

    Okay, so you know how I had my A/C on my to-do list for this week? (Before I get started, thank you to Mom and Dad for giving me my birthday present early because I don’t think I could have survived this summer without air conditioning. It was bad enough up until this point.) Well,…

    Well, it’s official: I have asthma. It actually explains … a lot? I’ve always had a little bit of difficulty breathing when the weather changes (like if it goes from sunny to rainy or when the seasons transition), but I never really thought anything about it.

    I truly wish I were kidding, but I am not. I have essentially not watched anything other than episodes of Mystery Science Theater 3000 on YouTube. It’s an effective way to keep your mind off of quarantine and people refusing to wear masks because it’s their body/choice and unemployment and the clementine buffoon in the…

    So I didn’t do the Friends challenge (obviously), and I’ve spent the last month or so working from home and adjusting to life in the time of corona. I’ve had the worst cough since February (seriously, it’s basically a permanent part of my life now, despite being on two inhalers and a prescription nasal spray),…

    Alright. I keep seeing this meme going around. Before I start, I have a couple of points I need to cover. First, I am a certified pharmacy technician who has worked in retail and hospital pharmacy settings, and I am currently employed at a mail order pharmacy that services dialysis patients, where I am an…
