Microwave of Forgetfulness

Based on a true story.

I’ve mentioned before that I experience “brain fog” due to POTS (Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome), which is a blood circulation disorder–turns out, if your brain isn’t getting enough blood flow, and therefore enough oxygen, it causes some problems. Like forgetting things. Including how to do things you believed you did “mindlessly,” like using a microwave. I put my food in the microwave, closed the door, and realized that I had absolutely no idea what to do next. I did eventually remember (hint: you push the buttons), but only after staring blankly at the microwave long enough for my food to have heated up.

Winter Disappointment

I’ve lived most of my life in a climate with fairly cold, snowy winters, so winters in the place I’m now living, with its milder climate, is taking some getting used to. On the one hand, it’s nice not to have to worry so much about snow removal and winter weather driving. On the other hand–I like snow. And it’s confusing to have all winter look like early March. 

A little more snow, please, Winter?

(Also, my snowflakes look like a distracted spider made them😅).
