It’s going well. My resolution this year was to focus on self-improvement and self-care. I started using the Finch app, which has helped tremendously. I’ve cleaned my depression nest, took steps to being more organized, started learning German again, joined a gym and am going consistently, and I’m taking better care of myself through diet and mindfulness.

The next step is tackling my anxiety by getting out of the house more, so my husband and I have been looking into nature trails and camping areas near us. Hopefully we’ll be jumping into that starting this weekend.

Mine is recent, but I’ve watched the specific episode about a dozen times now because I think it’s just brilliant.

S2E5 of Interview with the Vampire, “Don’t Be Afraid, Just Start the Tape”. It’s immaculate. I can quote the entire San Francisco argument.

I applaud both Buffy answers and would like to add “The Body” to the mix.

Wanted to be a heart surgeon when I was a kid. Gave up on that in high school when the anxiety hit and I started shaking any time I was even slightly stressed. Figured that wasn’t the career path for me.

I’m doing really well. Married, setting up to take over the family business with my partner. I still love heart-related medical stuff and read/watch things to scratch the itch.

Still anxious, still very shaky. I made the right choice.

Just tried to read some of Anne Rice’s books last week because I was enchanted by the AMC adaptation of Interview with the Vampire.

I can’t even adequately express how much I dislike her writing and “story telling”, if you can even call it that. Her vampire lore/rules for her vampires are cool, but that’s pretty much all she has going for her.

Parasaurolophus has been my favorite since I was 6 years old. I’ve always thought their cranial crests were very cool.
