If I've been around your children for any significant portion of time, I assume you've heard me singing "I love eggs, from my head down to my legs...." This commercial apparently resonated with me a bit too much because it's constantly stuck in my head. I thought it was something everyone knew, but I've gotten more… Continue reading I ❤ Eggs

More nervous than I've been yet for my third egg retrieval. Hoping third time is the charm!
Silent letters, slurs, uncertainty, and other things I dislike!
I was trying to decide where we were going to eat last night and I came across the word lamb which reminded me of my severe disdain for silent letters. They're pointless and just make the English language harder for people. I also don't like slurs, but that's no surprise to anyone who knows me.… Continue reading Silent letters, slurs, uncertainty, and other things I dislike!
I believe in the sand beneath my toes…
This should just be called: Where were you when you learned about Crystal Meth? I had just tuned 10 (young for my grade) and was SUPER into 90s alternative, thanks to my older brother (and my impeccable musical taste). I had a knack (or an obsessive hobby) for memorizing lyrics of songs and always enjoyed… Continue reading I believe in the sand beneath my toes…
Buying Needles Over the Counter (and other things that piss me off while on an excessive amount of hormones)

I should have known earlier, but I did the thing that Justin loves where I forget six things and remember them incrementally as I arrive home from the previous errand. It only happens when I'm on these damn drugs, so I think he does think… Continue reading Buying Needles Over the Counter (and other things that piss me off while on an excessive amount of hormones)
Bloodwork & US update
Not much to report. A fairly disappointing doctor's visit. They could spot three follicles on one side and 0 on the other. My estrogen was at 58 which was significantly lower than last time at this point. It's frustrating because I'm on more meds and have been doing only positive things to help increase my… Continue reading Bloodwork & US update
Here I go again (and other lessons from the famed musical group Whitesnake)
Today, I went to see DRW and M for my baseline ultrasound. I always feel entirely too cheery for their first appointment at 7:00 AM. I like to schedule them as early as possible so that they don't interfere with my workday. I open their office door with a huge "good morning" and - without… Continue reading Here I go again (and other lessons from the famed musical group Whitesnake)
