Good morning, pals!

I'm drowsy and kinda ready to go back to work. The week off was lovely though.

Thank you to everyone who answered my question about adult friendships. Your answers were helpful and encouraging, and I can tell I have a lot of work to do, but it feels a lot less daunting. <3

I watched the first aide video about dealing with cold injuries, and as the EMS guy wrapped the freezing girl in a mylar blanket, decided that I too would like to become a human Chipotle burrito. So now I'm snuggled warm in bed.

Can someone please tell me how to make friends as an adult?

It feels a lot more challenging than it should be.

Relationship musings 

It's hard to tell when it's a good time to start seeking out relationships again after being single.

I've been single for 7 months now and it's been really good for me, esp for overcoming my codependent tendencies.

But I miss cuddles and spending flirty/sexy/romantic time with ppl.

Like I want these things but don't trust myself enough yet to know if I want them for genuine reasons or just because I'm lonely.

I maybe relate a little too much to Princess Carolyn.

Alcohol mention; someone save me 

We all just took shots

and my family is watching the info channel

heelllllppppppp

Jeopardy 

** Sorry, Kiana Nakamura, my bad

Show thread

Jeopardy 

My girl Kiona Nakamura is on her third day streak for Jeopardy.

(See: previous post about cute archeologist/roboticist woman with teal hair)

Alcohol 

3 drinks in and I'm already getting sleeeeeepy.

I don't know how the rest of my family manages to drink so much every night.

Exercise 

So it turns out the longest plank I can hold is 1.5 minutes. Not great, but it's a good start.

My brother, who's kind of a personal trainer (a bad one) was shocked that I couldn't do a single push-up, even a modified one. I've just never had a strong enough chest/back.

It's gonna be my first time living without pets, so THAT'S gonna be weird.

But hopefully less sneezy.

Alcohol 

I got me some "almond nog" from trader joe's and some spiced rum, so here we go....

I'm moving into my new place today. It's a scary but ultimately good feeling.

I was about to say sleep to y'all when my browser typed a ☕️​ emoji and then unexpectedly quit.

Um. I don't think the computer wants me to go.

There's this woman with glasses and green hair on Jeopardy who's an archeologist and did programming on a robotics project in her free time.

Me: 😍​😍​

Medical 

Organizing my insulin by expiration because OOPS it *does* have a shelf life.

*luckily most of them are good thru 2019.

**I'm doing this because I'm paranoid about losing insurance and want to have as much insulin as possible while I still have it

***I totally went and ordered the cheaper test meter and test strips that @mimtschan@witches.town​ recommended. That will provide peace of mind.

Permanent vs current address? American 

Does anyone know the legal definition of a current vs permanent address?

Right now my Driver's license lists my parent's address & I am registered to vote in their county.

I'm moving to a new county on Dec 1st. I plan to do my USPS change of address to the new home. What other paperwork do I need to do?

Will I need to update my address for Medi-Cal? Change drivers license or voter registration?

Any advice will help, thanks!

CW: Diabetes, death mention 

This is what keeps me up at night.
