I’ve struggled with migraines for the lasts seven years and change. It came along with my autoimmune diagnosis but has lived a separate life from ankylosing spondylitis and psoriatic arthritis. Typically I get them in my luteal phase of my cycle but as I’ve began to experiment with hormones in pellet form (just tucked away […]

Day 1491 and Snappy
I am a bit snappy at the moment. Everything hurts and too much is happening. Despite my endless horizon of opportunity my circumstances tightens to the pinprick focal point of pain. Once you get angry enough that you quote Kierkegaard in public settings it’s probably a sign to knock it off. I don’t have much […]
Day 1373 and Anaphylaxis Maybe
I don’t know what I did but I’m like 50% of the way towards an anaphylactic reaction. I was exposed to salt water, a sunscreen whose ingredients I didn’t vet as carefully as normal (foreign language) and a few environmental factors that could potentially have contributed. I’d post a picture here but it’s not something […]
Day 976 and Chores & Naps
I’ve come to believe a good day off must involve a balance of work and rest. I take a seven day a week approach to my own professional work personally but I love a weekend for doing work of a more personal nature. My husband loves homestead chores. While we had some nerves about how […]
As much as I love to joke about getting cancelled on Twitter, I’ve never actually worried about getting dinged. I resisted getting a Blue Check and otherwise pursuing the trappings of being a power user as I was confident that my real world connections would overcome any algorithmic nonsense.

Day 120 and Naps
I’ve always been prone to energy dips in the afternoon. I wake up immediately ready for the day but after lunch and another of work or activity and I’m heading off an energy cliff. If I allow myself a burst of sleep I’ll be back and feeling as energetic as I was in the morning […]
I seem to have accidentally fallen into polyphasic sleep. Those experimental not for human consumption, long amino acid chains that everyone is doing n of 1 research with? Well, my n of 1 experiment seems to be yielding the occasionally odd sleep pattern. I’ll be up early after having a night of sleep that feels […]
Yesterday I was really struggling with pain. It was all I could do to scribble up an appreciation for my 18th anniversary using WordPress for my writing. I am doing everything I can to biohack my way around a chronic autoimmune condition that interferes with my quality of life. My love for my life and […]
Day 1899 and Off To Sleep
I regret to say that after yesterday’s various excitements through my continued ill health; did not leave me with anything for today. I crawled out of bed for a coffee far too late. Was greeted by marginally better biometrics such I think my Whoop took pity on me by giving me a green. The trouble […]
Day 1875 and Between Heaven and Hell
I had a stupid day. Maybe things have been simmering for a bit and a blow up was to be expected. I hit a limit for humiliation and simply didn’t want to keep paying for that kind of treatment. I did not consent. I’m doing some business in California and am paying an exorbitant fee […]
