Bits and tids
1. Yesterday at the doctor's office, I got bored waiting for him, and there was a whiteboard in there with all kinds of stuff like "GERD" and "polymyalgia rheumatica?" and "sjögren's" written on it, and um, I may have drawn some stuff on it. Like a piggy. And then a paramecium. And then I wrote "Everyone loves a paramecium!" underneath it, firstly to identify it as a paramecium, secondly, because, well, they do. I also wanted to write "Have you considered mitochondrial disease?" but I got distracted by the fake prostates. Seriously. There were model prostates (this is what your prostate looks like when it gets enlarged!) and there were three sizes and they were squishy and made out of some sort of foam and I poked them and played with them a lot. I was tempted to steal them, but I did not.

2. Tardigrades aka waterbears aka MOSS PIGLETS can survive in space. I did not know that. That is so badass.

3. I have a couple of ideas for back-up costumes if the Red costume doesn't pan out, but I hope I don't have to use them. One is the mad scientist slash Doctor Horrible (more like Horribly sexy, amiright, hurhur) outfit, but I have worn it a LOT recently. And while it is awesome and makes me feel totally hot, I'd like to switch it up a bit. I also have a gangster costume, but I did that already in high school and I kind of want something new.

4. I now have five black and white polka dot dresses. I could wear one to school every day.

5. I am seriously considering buying a white bustier for Halloween and dyeing it red. But I am worried about it turning out right.

6. It is cold and rainy out, which means it is PAJAMA SEASON FOR RAY RAY. He doesn't much appreciate it, but he prefers it over being cold.
