happy birthday ME

in theory, she can read this today…

…at least i’m hoping so.

as this is being written (a bit after 4pm CST on january 12, 2022) she is fighting for her life against “the china virus” as her text labeled it. she has, at some points, been down in the low 30’s on her oxygen levels, which considering they hook you up to oxygen when your level hits sixty percent, that’s pretty fucking low. as of today they think she’s only got a couple of days and, if she keeps progressing as she has, she’ll be able to breathe on her own.

so hopefully, e, you can read this, know that i love you, and yes, you know where that header came from!

(and as a token of my undying affection for you i won’t reveal your age today, of course!)
