BioPLEASE read at least the top half of my userinfo/profile before adding me or commenting on my journal.
© All rights are hereby reserved on anything found within this journal be it in my entries or in the comments.
This journal is for me to write and/or link what I want to write/read. If you find it interesting that is all well and good.
I knit, take photographs, read, write and play World of Warcraft (WoW) dependent on my health on any particular day. I have multiple sclerosis, PCOS and also depression. Much of the time, though, I am pretty much fine.
I am an often pedantic polymath philomath

Second stanza quoted from "Traveling Dream" by Marge Piercy because it sums up my life:
A week ago feels like a minute ago and something my alarm reminded me to do an hour ago feels like one second ago. Maybe this explains why I forget everything - it is more that I know I still have ages until a deadline that has already passed me by.

Second stanza quoted from "Traveling Dream" by Marge Piercy because it sums up my life:
| Secretly the clock is bolting forward ten minutes at a click instead of one. Each time I look away, it jumps. |
A week ago feels like a minute ago and something my alarm reminded me to do an hour ago feels like one second ago. Maybe this explains why I forget everything - it is more that I know I still have ages until a deadline that has already passed me by.
