Lemon in Ponderings of the Universe

We’ve already reached the point in NoHoFoJo where I’m overwhelmed and struggling to write semi-coherent entries! Whee! I’m hoping I can catch up on reading, noting and responding to notes this we...

Goodnight in Ponderings of the Universe

AHHHHHHHH!!!! I have to write an entry. It’s pretty much bed time now so I don’t have a whole lot of desire to write. This entry isn’t going to be particularly compelling. Dinner ingredients didn...

Pee Pants in Ponderings of the Universe

Ugh. Today was not pleasant at work. We were overbooked with surgeries. I ate lunch at 4pm, 2 hours before my shift ended. It was the type of shift where we had to have the urine/poop mop out all...

Plum in Ponderings of the Universe

Ack! I am so anxious! I was anxious all weekend and it’s followed me into this week. I am so nervous about this damn election. At least I got my own voting out of the way. That eases my mind som...

Banana in Ponderings of the Universe

I don’t like one day weekends. Not enough time to do ALL THE THINGS and actually get some relaxation in. I currently have some chicken mushroom risotto in the oven. I have no idea if it’ll turn o...

I Voted! in Ponderings of the Universe

The early voting thing went surprisingly smoothly and I would do it again. It takes away so much stress of voting on actual election day. I worked today and it was a Saturday Plus shift. I came ...


Holy crap my arms are so sore from my workouts yesterday! I know I’m out of shape but it’s ridiculous. Means somethings happening at least :P Because it’s NoJoMo, we’ve gotten to the time of year...


And it’s November! Time to try to write every day. Wheee. I had today off and feel like I did so many small but adulty things that added up into an entirely all too adulty day. I got my flu shot,...


I have been having way too much fun making this playlist! It’s huge (over 100 songs) and I don’t feel done with it yet. But, since Halloween is upon us, I’ll post the link and keep adding to it a...


Its almost November and getting to be time to ramp up my writing here! I feel like I’m pretty boring yet somehow, every year in November, I manage to write about the mundane :P I’m still working ...


I’m putting together a Halloween playlist on Spotify. It has some more traditional Halloween songs like Monster Mash as well as one’s that are a little less obvious (Wolfman Agenda by Shakey Grav...


Ahhh I’m behind on stuff. Since I last wrote, I’ve been to 3 concerts, one of which I traveled for. They were all wonderful! The first was Michael Nesmith’s First National Band Redux tour in Roy...

Day 4 in Ponderings of the Universe

Day 4 at the fair was a shorter one and almost didn’t happen. Started the day at the dentist where they didn’t believe that the results I get with a manual toothbrush weren’t from a sonic one, so...

Day 3 in Ponderings of the Universe

This must have been Sunday. Started the day off with another grilled peach, this time the herbed goat cheese drizzled with honey variety. SO GOOD! Would definitely recommend! Also got a kombuch...

Day 2 in Ponderings of the Universe

We went Saturday after I was done with my half day at work. I was hungry and ready for fair food! Got some more cucumber lemonade from French Meadow. So refreshing! I think that day was hot too....


Ahhh my vacation time is over! And so is the MN State Fair. It went by so fast! Mom and I went 10 of the 12 days which I’m pretty sure is a new personal record. Someday, I want to try to go every...


MN STATE FAIR STARTS ON THURSDAY! THURSDAY! FOUR MORE SLEEPS TIL THE FAIR! WHEEEEEE!!!! I’m going the first day, work Friday and a half day on Saturday and then I have NINE DAYS OFF!!!!! I’m so ...


I’m enjoying the first three day weekend I’ve had in a very long time. It was much needed. Work has been even extra insane. I think I say that every time I write. J, one of our doctors, is on pa...

Oops in Ponderings of the Universe

So I suck at PB lately. I’ve been sort of reading, not really commenting and definitely not writing. Oops. So, what’s been going on the past few months? Most notably, Aaron and I got engaged :) ...


Thus begins crazy concert week! Three in one week! WHEEEE!!! Last night was the Franz Ferdinand concert and it was so much fun! I never really write in-depth entries right after concerns, so I fi...


I’m having an upset kind of day. I’ve felt sad and weepy since I woke up. It’s annoying. There have also been upsetting things that have happened this week that are piling up to add to the gener...


All week has been a series of Mondays. Even today, which was a day off. I had to go into work to sign something having to do with a travel-related case that has been a pain in my butt (figurativ...


Yesterday was the Mondayest Monday to ever Monday. The diagnostic lab fucked up big on a case of mine and the director himself called me to apologize and clarify things. Damn straight, he did. D...


So…umm…things are maybe OK now? I hope so! Those were a remarkably stressful couple of days, though. That sense of panic, the thought of losing this community. I was devastated when OD shut down...


So, yeah. This sucks. The newer update makes me feel a little better but I don’t like the feeling of everything being in limbo. I plan to stay until I hear that PB is for sure shutting down. I h...
