Nowhere feels like home to Intern Maureen. There's only one person she can turn to. Set right after A Carnival Comes To Town.

I was semi-planning on getting a Hitch-Hiker's Guide to the Galaxy next month but I am really not feeling it and getting a tattoo you're not sure of is a bad idea. But I still want to get a special HHGttG thing, so if anyone sees ome nifty merch, link me? Thanks!

Memorial tattoo for Hecate, based on <a href="http://blog.earlfoolish.com/post/83101280166/theres-a-blinking-light-up-on-the-mountain-tinythis WTNV</a> fanart, done by Jorge at Amillion Tattoo.

My sweet Hecate... I just found her, very still. She could almost have been sleeping.

I love you, Hecate. I'll miss you so much.

Ooops, thought I already posted this here!

( Durian Kisses - Chapter Three (final chapter) )

Chapter Two of my Welcome to Night Vale fic, Durian Kisses!

( In Which Carlos takes Janice to the lab )

Chapter 1 of my new WTNV fic! It'll probably be about 3 chapters. Carlos babysits Janice!

( Durian Kisses )

I haven't had the focus for journals lately. Hopefully I'll be back in the game soon. In the meantime, here is a Welcome to Night Vale fluff fic!

( Comfort Food )

So at anderyn's recommendation, I got the new Steeleye Span/Terry Pratchett album WINTERSMITH. Three songs in and I am IN LOVE.

Also, I saw some clips of the Welcome to Night Vale live recording with the new voice actor for Carlos and I am delighted. He's a good addition to the show.

I really really want to nap but I am expecting deliveries from UPS and FedEx so I can't fall asleep DAMMIT.

Just filled out my lease renewal paperwork. My hands are shaking so much. Official Important Paperwork terrifies me!

I pretty much literally slept all weekend. Dreading clinic today, maybe I will be lucky and it will be canceled because of the weather.

Let's see if I can manage a couple of sentences on my fic before then.

28.6 F in Austin right now. Brrrr. I was very lucky and my caseworker drove me to my doctor's appointment this morning, because the office opened late because of the nasty weather and if I'd taken the bus as usual I would have shown up and it would have been closed. As it is I saw a nurse practitioner who was super thorough and went over my last blood test results in detail and spotted some thyroid weirdness. So Synthroid and Paxil are being added to my medication cocktail.

I am still managing at least a sentence a day on my Welcome to Night Vale fluff fic. Even on the stressiest days this week I managed at least a sentence. This, I can be proud of.

Managed the Section 8 Renewal meeting with a minimum of fuss, but spent a painful amount on cabfare (it's not on a bus line). Dreading the doctor's appointment tomorrow morning, but my caseworker says he'll give me a ride.

And I can add matzoh balls to food I have to shut Hecate in the bedroom to be able to eat in peace.

The therapists at the clinic are happy with me. They're pleased that I've been able to make it in for six weeks in a row, impressed by my comfort box, glad to hear I am actively writing. I could feel myself slipping into putting-up-a-good-front mode, which is really not helpful. Social pressure interfering with treatment, yay. So much pressure to be "normal", to be "fine", and I can fake it for a few hours but it's taxing. And it's so ingrained that I can't always control it.

And I can even relax after getting through Thanksgiving; in addition to Monday morning at the clinic, I have to go to my Section 8 renewal meeting on Wednesday, and I have to go in for a meds check early on Friday. Ugh.
