  • I hate Walmart but that’s where I ended up due to reasons, and they didn’t seem to have any on the shelf and the line at the pharmacy was about 7 people long, so I ended up ordering it from Amazon. It should get here Sunday. In the meantime I got it off with Vitamin E oil, but I did have to rub a little and it wasn’t great.








  • She definitely will. At my appointment last fall she suggested I try an OTC supplement and call her back if I decide I want to go with HRT. So I feel certain she’s going to give me a scrip today. I’m not sure exactly what, I guess estrogen and progestin since I still have my uterus. But it’ll be an interesting experience I’m sure!











  • I have said my final goodbye to reddit. What a shame. I had the “secret” figured out in finding the actual content over the shitposts/shitreplies. I learned so much there on a multitude of topics. I hate how often I’m checking facebook now. I tried to get into Tik Tok but I allow myself to watch one video about “my neighbor from hell” or “watch this Karen lose her mind” and that’s all I get recommended for days, and then I start to feel like the world is a terrible place.

    I’ll be sticking it out here.




  • Content warning: creepy crawlies

    I had an Incident. Saturday afternoon I went for a hike with two of my friends. One of them insisted I let her spray me with tick repellent. After I got home I sat around for a couple of hours, ate dinner, relaxed, then discovered I had a tick attached to my calf in spite of the spray. I should have showered and taken off my hiking clothes as soon as I got home. I found another adult tick, unattached, while showering and then found a couple of pinpoint sized ones over the course of the next few hours because I sure as hell wasn’t sleeping. Besides I had to get the clothes in the dryer. But for some reason even though I’ve found ticks on me before, this one set off a full-body whole-life panic attack that is still ongoing. I’m crying at everything. Everyone is irritating me. And I just feel itchy and crawly all the time. I’ve examined crevices of my body I haven’t looked at in years. I shaved places I haven’t shaved in years. I’ve made my husband do several full body exams…he didn’t seem to mind somehow.

    Apologies if I’ve now contaminated you with the creepies.
