I just peed...

I just peed in a bathroom with men and nothing bad happened.

Unrelated, my husbang purrs when it's loud.

Look at my plants. 😍

Bunch of pretty weirdos. 😍

My rat tail is sprouting a teensy new tail. It's pink!

Buds!

My Echeveria Minima is sharing the love (yellow blooms) with the whole table.

Large blooms. There were 4, but animals happened. 🙁 Still beautiful, though!

I love the delicate plant in the middle. She's so beautiful to me!

My Sunset Aloe blushing red.

The pretty pink / red flowers are death blooms of one of my cobwebby sempervivums. So sad that she's dying, but she goes out with a bang!

I had a thought as I was laying an egg last night...

I have a ParaGard (copper IUD).  Dr. Daniels refused to place it for me and Medicaid wouldn't pay for one.  No.  This was a gift from Obama during that brief time I was deemed worthy of having health insurance while poor.  I also had to find a doctor who would insert it.  Big shock here:  The only doctor I could find who would do it was a female gynecologist named Dr. Tessen.  She believed I knew what I wanted and what was best for me and gave me the ParaGard I had sought for so many years.  When she told me she would do it I cried in her office.  I may have even hugged her.

Dr. Daniels wouldn't let me have it because he believed it kept you from being pregnant by abortion.  He refused me a form of birth control based on his religious beliefs - which is no shock here in Alabama.

But so like, should I turn myself in for all of the babies I've possibly unknowingly "aborted" over the last 4 years?  In all that time, surely there's been at least one.  Should all women with a ParaGard get jail time?

(I know that's not how ParaGard works.  I'm just commenting on the current "women are just incubators" situation.)

The transparent legs are GIVING ME LIFE. 😂😂😂

Oh my GOSH.

Oh my GOSH. I spent a total of 7 hours today watering / insecticiding my plants. I worked for 3 hours, went to class, and then came home and worked for 4 more hours. 😳 My back is letting me know that my bedroom floor just won't suffice as a potting table. I was up and down over and over the whole time I was working. But at least that's done.

I hate to admit that I'm disappointed I didn't see any mealybugs while I was working. I groomed all of the plants when I medicated them. I didn't inspect them closely, but I was keeping my eyes open. It makes me wonder if all that work was for nothing... 😕

I survived my first Combinatorics class.

I survived my first Combinatorics class. It reminds me a lot of Probability & Statistics so far. Gotta go do homework now. 😂

I was having anxiety...

I was having anxiety about going to class and thought I'd make myself feel better. FAIL.
