Spock turns fifteen tomorrow. He has a special can of wet food for his birthday dinner.
Did homework. Ate dinner. Now I’m going to read more of Gone Girl even though I’m not enjoying it thus far to see if I can get into it.
Take your meds, folks.

Spock is super clingy tonight. I’m not feeling super great; just another headache and general fatigue issue. I can’t wait for Friday’s appointment with the hematologist, even if I’m nervous. Despite my tattoos, I’m not fantastic with needles being used to inject stuff into me.
