some things make a post

  • turns out the questionable beetroot pasta does a much better job of resembling food minus the cheese. still not going to make it again, but very glad I only added the cheese to the half of it we actually ate on Monday -- which meant that the other half did not wind up going in the compost today.
  • let the record show that I was today years old the first time I found Small Stone in my Dried Grain. I don't think there is any significant damage (and none was visible to A when I got him to inspect) but a combination of hypersensitivity and probable minor gum bruising and propensity to tactile hallucination and anxious body-horror fixation means that I have been having experiences like "my teeth hurt when I inhale through my nose" for most of the afternoon and evening. meanwhile iced water is totally fine. I am attempting distraction; I will gently massage in a layer of toothpaste on my way to bed.
  • PIP review form showed up on Friday last. I've requested copies of letters various from the GP. I have not actually opened the damn thing and started going through it yet. temptation to just scrawl "all my incurable congenital conditions are still incurable, PS I have chronic migraine now" over the front and leave it at that Extremely High (but will not actually be indulged).
  • made it to the allotment!!!!! saw FAKE SNAKES, one of which was Basking Happily in the (currently mostly empty) bed in the greenhouse. ... and one of which thrashed away from me in the giant woodchip pile with an end that was distinctly less pointy and tail-shaped than might be considered ideal, but very neat and tidy for all that. I think I panicked it into auto-amputation rather than causing the injury myself, which is still not great (sorry fake snake :( ) but hopefully means it's cleaner and more survivable than it might otherwise be.
  • SAW THE BAT SAW THE BAT SAW THE BAT. was on call with S. stopped abruptly and stared fixedly over the top of the laptop screen out the window. went "-- but it might just have been a bi-- IT CAME BACK IT'S A BAT BAT BAT BAT BAT BAT". approximately.

Hooray for BAT BAT BAT BAT.

And may you snow the PIP review under with sufficient documentation that all they can do is decide to increase your award.
