I've Been Gone

For way too long...

Anyways, most of my blogging is done over on Tumblr.

I might start posting here again, I'm not really sure. I could crosspost things, at the very least.

Since my last post I've moved in with my boyfriend (James), adopted a pit bull named Rosie, painted most of our house purple (at least on the inside) and cut my hair off. After dyeing it purple. There's a lot of purple.

We are trying to start a garden and we're planning on going to Orlando in November.

I still have Crohn's. I'm still on Cimzia. I'm still disabled. I cook more often because I have the time and space and my own kitchen and James is a decent sous chef. He is good at peeling potatoes and washing rice...

I was the Women's Caucus chair for YDG for a while, but my health hasn't allowed me to do as much as I would like to in order to make the caucus vibrant and viable. Really, my focus is on taking care of myself and doing things as well as I can.

I'll try to post more pictures and updates later.

Argan Oil

Argan oil! I am in love with this stuff. The Body Shop Wild Argan Oil  smells amazing and is good for hair and body. I have the  solid  and it makes a great cuticle oil. The label says not to use on the face but I may have already done that... I might grab a few items the next time I’m near a Body Shop because I really just want to smell like this all the time.  The Josie Maran Argan Oil Light  is a liquid and has no smell and can be used all over, including the face. It’s super effective at getting rid of flakes and dry patches. It also plumps wrinkles and improves skin elasticity. The “Light” version is different from  normal Argan Oil , it sinks into skin faster and dries with no extra shine, but from what I can tell it is missing some of the skin repairing properties of regular Argan Oil. I like to use the liquid on my brows and lashes because it can help them grow and my eyebrows need all the help they can get. You can either add a few drops ...

There was an incident...

Yesterday was shot day. Three pens, as expected, no big deal. Except one of my pens misfired. The needle didn't even touch the skin. I pressed down, counted to ten, pulled it away, and the Humira started spraying. I put my hand over the end to catch to fluid so that it didn't spray all over the carpet. According to the Humira rep with AbbVie this is a normal mechanical failure. I explained the incident, gave them some info from the package, and as soon as they confirm with my doctor a new pen will be on the way. I have extras in the fridge, so no lapse in dosing. Still, injecting is anxiety inducing enough without equipment failure. The other problem: I noticed two lumps in my right arm pit on Thursday morning. Around 9 AM it was the size of a ping pong ball. I sat in Sus' house all day while she cleaned, unable to help her because the building pain was just too much and movement would only make it worse. By dinner time it was roughly the size of a tennis ball, and more...
