Got my first jab today. Been about an hour, and so far no signs of zombie-ism… And I so want to add a joke about my 5G reception right here, but maybe I shouldn’t… 

Wishing the very happiest of birthdays to my dear Pittwitch! Love you!

Mum got her first covid vaccine shot today.  I mean, things aren’t exactly troublesome down here, but it’s still definitely nice to have.

writer question.
I heard an editor complain that people overuse “ “
i’m a bit confizzled how else are you supposed to inform the reader that talking/conversation is taking place?

Writer Question
cause a personal project is reaching completion.
 
If you leave it on  cliffhanger, Can/ should you have a epilogue and or put the stinger in the epilogue?

So I'm working on a Star Vs the Forces of Evil story, and I was amazed when I started typing the phrase "magical princess from another dimension" -- which I had last typed several months ago -- and my phone actually pulled up the correct next word. At least, up to a point.

Good try, phone, good try.

New memo from the US dept of labor, that due to the covid pandemic and the need to “catch-back-up”, the next eleven days will be considered “Monday” for business/tax purposes.  Happy April First everybody!

Around this time last year, we were dealing with devastating fires and serious water restrictions.  Now we’re having record rainfalls and devastating floods.  At least you can’t say we don’t have variety in Australia!

And we have an eruption happening! A volcanic fissure has opened up in a small valley, and is erupting. There have been hardly any quakes in the past couple of days, so hopefully the quakes are done. I can’t wait for the authorities come up with an official name for the fissure and resulting lava.

Quick question: Which of these three sentences do you find most readable? Assume that the speaker has only one boyfriend and one daughter, and that Randy also has only one daughter.
"This is my boyfriend Randy, my daughter Evie, and Randy's daughter Rose."
"This is my boyfriend, Randy, my daughter, Evie, and Randy's daughter, Rose."
"This is my boyfriend, Randy; my daughter, Evie; and Randy's daughter, Rose.

Well. It took close to a year and a half but we finally know why I’ve been having nerve pain and numbness and struggling to stand and walk. The ‘why’ is not an easily fixed condition (...possibly not “fixable” at all, from the sound of it...) but having an explanation for the problem is the first step on the path forward. I can’t even express how relieved I am to have physical proof that what I’ve been struggling with wasn’t just in my head; the fact that such was bothering me as strongly as it was should say something about how folks with invisible disabilities are often treated in the US. 
I’m still stuck with walking with a cane for now. There are also orthotics, braces, medication, and routine specialist visits added to the equation now. I’m not crazy about that...but I’ll live. At least it’s not neuropathy and there’s a chance of some improvement with treatment, and so long as those two statements are true, I’m sure I can find a way to not whine too much. It’s a bonus that the medication I’m on now is helping with my bad knee (why I had the cane, to begin with) and I’ve got a very courteous and understanding doctor taking care of me. Maybe now that the testing and waiting are over, I’ll have a little more free time. If so, maybe I’ll be more able to use said free time for writing and updating. In the meantime, it’s good to be back on here even if only occasionally.
Anyway. Dropping off the face of the earth without warning is kind of normal for me but...well...this is why I’ve been exceeding my usual DOtFotE statistics. In the coming months, if I get unusually bristly on here, say something unfriendly, or come across as short or rude, I apologize profusely in advance. I’m hanging in here the best I can...but...frankly, my nerves are compressed and sending pain and itching signals through otherwise healthy tissue, and there’s not a whole lot I can do when it gets really bad. There are days when it’s so bad I just want to cuss a blessed blue streak, cry, or both at once. Generally, I try to stay offline on days like that but they’ve snuck up on me before. If it happens, please be patient with me and let me know I’ve been a dick (because I probably won’t even realize it until later on when I’m trying to sleep) and I’ll apologize for it.
Until next time, I hope everyone’s having a comfortable and safe spring, and wish y’all the best.
 

Got my first covid shot.  I’ll have a second opinion in four weeks.
