Birthday Girl 🎂🎁🎉🧁

(if there was nothing abnormal on your last pap, and mine was normal last year).

They called me back and the medical assistant went over what we're going to be doing today. I don't need a pap-smear because I had one last year. They're now only every 5 years of you're over 30.

Looks like the cover of Indestructible by Disturbed!!

I'm glad!

That's 👏🏻 a 👏🏻 you 👏🏻 problem 👏🏻!

Is it an annual test? Some counties do an extra annual test in March.

Checked in and made sure my address and insurance information were up to date. :)
Preventative healthcare is covered.

Come see the gynecologist with me! It's time for my annual appointment.

Ra... Ra... Rasputin...

Zohran Mamdani supports peaceful protest in wake of attempted bombing Two men allegedly deployed explosive devices against an anti-Muslim protest targeting the New York City mayor.

“While I found this protest appalling, I will not waver in my belief that it should be allowed to happen.”

It's only a "sensitive question" if you're ashamed of the answer!

Completely fucking forgot to do the one small work task I was responsible for today... fuck

Yup! I started at my current library in 2013 making $7/hr. I make $27/hr now (almost), but that's with a masters and 13 years of experience. It still doesn't pay the bills lol

I feel this way every time someone my age says they wish they were diagnosed as a kid. I think what you actually want was to be a diagnosed as a kid with the knowledge we have NOW and the support systems that are much stronger for kids TODAY.

I had a co-worker that I used to be friends with, but if he didn't personally like something, he actually couldn't understand why anyone else would like it. And he was so loud about it I had to stop being around him.
Just let people enjoy things. Life is short.

This puts me at 10 people released. I filed my 1st habeas petition 29 days ago. I am an incredibly small-time, nobody lawyer who knew nothing about immigration law the day I submitted that case. I barely know any more today. I had never sued the federal government and now I've beaten them 10 times.

Yeah. Would not recommend.

So I don't know if I would say negative, but in the few years I've known you it definitely came across that your job was a huge source of stress for you.

I don't feel very present today.

They're coming for your job!

NO NO NO YOU DON’T

My hottest take as a public librarian:

If you don't enjoy reading, you don't have to read. Spend your precious free time / hobby time doing something you actually enjoy.

There are just genuinely a lot of people who don't understand the concept of reading for pleasure.

I was lucky and got a stipend to attend, but it's gonna be ~ $1,600!

I had an amazing birthday. There was sushi and fajitas and drinks and family and friends and gardening and music.

Bredlik!

My mother is pulling out all of my 45s (mostly formerly hers) and telling me which ones to play.

"Do I look like a DJ?"
"Yes."

My husband, unaware of what he's saying:
"With the price of gas, what it is."
Me, immediately:
"When you get it. If you get it... Good you got it."

"If there's nothing library related I can help you with, there's other work I need to do" and then walk away.

It's my birthday
