    Last month – Jesus, it’s already April – I did an “on rotation …” for movie soundtracks and realized that I could 100% do an entire post on video game soundtracks. There is just something about being swept up by a rousing score as you’re trying to beat a level, especially one where you’re fighting…

    GUESS. WHAT. I GOT VACCINATED!! DANCE DANCE PARTY PARTY I mean, I know it doesn’t solve all the problems I have – crippling insomnia, out-of-control psoriasis, stress due to work and school, a creative plateau (although that description’s a bit kinder than it should be, seeing as my brain can’t create anything), etc. – and…

    I was raised by two medical professionals – and have been one since 2017 – so being around hospitals and doctors’ offices is just sort of natural to me. To go visit either parent at work meant that I would have to go through a hospital, and even today, that weird, sterile-with-a-hint-of-bandaids smell is calming…

    In honor of the official start of spring last week, I’m going full classical. I mean, this is partially because I need some soothing tones to calm me down after dealing with bullshit work stuff and with the stresses of a new class (hi, physiology!), but that’s only like a smidgen of why I’ve chosen…

    For my current job, I have to be up and ready by 7A, clocked in and plugged up to the stupid phone system that they have chosen to use despite the fact it’s terrible. Like, Google Voice would be a better option at this point. So naturally, this means that I need to be awake…

    I found out last week that I have, indeed, been accepted into the accelerated nursing program at the university I’ve been taking prerequisites and will have my BSN by August 2022, with the expectation that I will pass my boards and all that fun shit. Obviously, I am very excited about this, even if it…

    Over on Twitter a little while ago, I got into a discussion about the concept of kayfabe – which is actually the impetus of this “in which I married a con man …” series – and as soon as I typed out that Keith was living on both sides of his personal kayfabe, it was…

    This week is a little jam-packed with school-related things (final week! and then next week, I start anatomy & physiology, so …) so I’m just going to post what I’ll be listening to while I try to survive the last few days of microbiology. 1 – “MEXICAN RADIO” BY KINKY 2 – “REBEL REBEL” BY…
