    Bed news: I ran out of Sertraline like two weeks ago and haven't filled my prescription yet.

    Good news: I guess now I know why I've been a snappish, cranky, hyperactive (but still fatigued) mess for days, and can definitely rule out the possibility that it makes my ME worse.

    Bad news: It's cold :(

    Good news: I have set the boiler to come on half an hour before I get up, so I should awaken to a nice toasty house.

    Bad news: I have never set the timer on a combi boiler before so there's every chance it'll come on at midnight instead. Or just not work.

    Good news: Bf is away in Scotland for work, so will not be witness to any potential failure to properly adult on my part.

    Bad news: none of these options are what I need and there is no "for all other..." option

    Bad news: I am sick for the 8th time this year, and have developed a hideous case of heartburn from the stress of current politics.

    Good news: I finally got my final final edits back for the writing job. The editor said my writing was tight - he went in expecting to have to cut big chunks, he ended up not cutting anything at all. I have six small changes to make that are basically little grammar things.

    I'm so smug right now.

    Secret Squirrel certainly something

    Bad (but not actually that bad) news: Dad sent me a kind of random $200+ birthday gift and getting something that expensive without consulting me makes me jumpy. That's so much money?? But also how could I be ungrateful?? (The second part is tied up in Brain Stuff.)

    Good news: Once I calmed down I realized I absolutely love what he got me. It's a nice hat made of musk ox wool and Wikipedia says this stuff can last like 20 years with good care??? It's a lovely antique brown with a cream design, and it's super thin but SO WARM. It will be perfect for cold days without being over warm. (I found a picture of it online.) aaaaaah ;u;

    Bad news: Left the dishes in the sink too long and the rice cooker basin got full of mold. Tea pot also got mold in.
    Good news: I got it cleaned up! And sprayed with vinegar! And the tea pot got scrubbed and sprayed down too, as did the tea ball that was in it, and I've since rinsed both of these and made fresh tea for myself.
    Bad news: Gag reflex overreacted while I was cleaning and there was a slight amount of puking.
    Good news: Puke stayed contained in the sink and got cleaned up with the rest of the mess.
