It’s me.

Thank you universe.
After three months of separation, a lot of fur lost, two tents, dozens of hours of setting pens up next to each other, I walk into Chester’s room to this. It’s a major step. Our first sleepover. No blood or thumping. Here’s crossing fingers that the bloodless truce will continue. Now it feels like a family again. We miss you Chibi 💔 watch over us okay?

Life is short, week 46 of 52
One year ago today, we lost a light in the world. The whole point of my Life is short year was inspired by him. I only knew him for several months, only hung out with him a few times, but it was more than enough to be thankful for. Today I’m having sushi for Josh because he can’t hit his “last meal place”. Every time I’m close, I will have a set at Sugarfish for him. Life is short folks. Hold your loved ones a little bit closer. Tell them you love them more. I know I have said I love you more in the past year more than I’ve…

Life is short, week 42 of 52
Status report: Second booster kicked my 🍑 but it’s better than risking my third season of covid. Here are my reminders of the week about why we get up in the morning: 1. Pepper moving in with me and Chester. So it hasn’t been easy. In fact it’s been insanely difficult trying to fit two very territorial, not small, headstrong rabbits in such a small space, but we’re finding a way. Her full name is now Pepperoncini (family traditiion) and she’s a BIG GIRL. I love her already. I hope she and Chester find their love for each other soon. 2. Seeing family and eating a lot, too much, after…

Life is short, week 38 of 52
Status update: Recent developments are only being able to sleep in alternate “evenings” so my zombie days are more frequent. Antihistamine 3x last week for bad hives, but still kicking. Moments of the week: 1. Not getting the brunt of a category 5 typhoon. A lot of my countrymen suffered a lot, and actual heroes died saving people from floods. My family and myself were safe. We were actually even able to have a good meal outside, the first in a really long time. I’m very grateful for that. 2. Just having conversations. Humans are social animals and this pandemic has changed how we relate to each other. Just being…

Life is short, week 37 of 52
Status update: Hives but no asthma. So better? Fatigued as heck all the time, and need to carve time out to row. I know I’m missing weeks and should clean up but I have zero desire to do that right now. Short moments of the week: 1. Overspending at the grocery store. So I may have bought enough for a cheese plate for 6, and have not started, and randomly a Kewpie smoke mayo that I put on all the fried things, and thinned out my wallet considerably, but it’s great. With all the things going on — I can barely enjoy making a meal, let alone make one. When…

Life is short, week 34 of 52
Status update: Two days of incredibly uncomfortable hearburn had me on my knees. Had me trying to figure out if giving up my start of work coffee and eventual caffeine withdrawal migraines is a bigger pain in the butt. Isn’t growing up awful? Moments of the week: 1. Spontaneous outings that actually happen. Sunday Korean barbecue decided on 3 hours before and it actually happened. A great meal, then hanging out a friend’s place, then spontaneous massage appointments. Nothing like a super chill semi social day with people that have no expectations of who I can be besides myself. And laughing our asses off the whole time. 2. Chester’s 8th…

Life is short, week 33 of 52
Status report: Finished my nebules, and I don’t know if I’m hallucinating the cigarette smoke going into the vents. Life moments of the week: 1. Chester being back at the vet, diagnosed with stress. I get it Chester, I miss her too. So much so this week, when I realized how much you follow me around now. She was such a big personality, and she loved on both of us so well, that we’re both feeling the hole she left. It’ll get better, I promise. 2. A wake up call. There’s nothing like a jarring realization to reset you. This past week, I got a punch in the gut of…
