stuff and happenings and things

thyroidectomy scheduled for 9/11 (lol) - whole thing is getting yeeted. looking forward to this mostly being over (aside from medication and whatever post-op iodine stuff i'm gonna have to do) b/c it is a big inconvenience. they initially penciled me in mid-august but i was like holy shit that's not gonna fly. work schedule was already made, tony's neutering is next week, akron pride is the end of august, we JUST got back from anthrocon not that long ago, i need some down time jesus christ

but i went in on tuesday to talk to the surgeon and stuff and they gave me another ultrasound and poked and prodded at my neck, which means it's irritated now. also went to the fair with my mom after the appointment and i think got overheated b/c i didn't eat properly beforehand/early on and didn't really drink anything lol so i ended up calling off yesterday because of that. monday night, as well, i had a teeny bout of that weird shaking like i did awhile back, but it was very short lived, thankfully (could it be thyroid related? who fuckin' knows! i feel like 80% of the shit i have going on could possibly be thyroid related so i'm interested to see what changes after the surgery)

i get two whole paid sick time weeks off for surgery/recovery (i'll be overnight for surgery), which is pretty nice b/c i have something like 300~ hours of sick time accrued

other than that, not a lot has been going on. went to a little furmeet in highland square...last week and met some local folks. took a super long walk on the towpath on....saturday. rode the scooter up to memorial pkwy and parked it there and then walked all the way up to merriman valley. stopped at the little thrift store up there and stopped at a fancy gelato place and got some really good cinnamon gelato before grabbing the bus back home. pretty good way to spend a really nice day

went to the fair, like i mentioned. the art in the park thing up at hardesty park is this weekend, but i work saturday so idk if we'll pop out to it (can never remember if it's fri/sat/sun or just sat/sun). i've mostly been putzing around working on art and playing chickensmoothie and stardew valley.
