Now I'm sore

[cornerofmadness]

After three days of standing I'm SORE. And more bruises are visible now that I'm healing like most of my left breast and my hands. I couldn't stand my pants today (Had to have them for lab) back to a skirt tomorrow.

I worry about the weekend. It's supposed to rain all Saturday and then go from 50 to 12 degrees. Last thing I need is ice and lose power again. I like winter except for this (well I would worry less if I had gas heat or a fireplace)

Speaking of snowflakes, I was too busy with school so I got behind so here we go



Day 7 Promote/Rec/Sing the Praises* of Yourself!

Though there are days I feel bad about myself I know that's the depression talking. The truth is I'm multi-talented and I am smart as hell (though I do dumb things sometimes).

I have four separate degrees in science (b.s. in biology and chemistry, a masters in biology and I'm a medical doctor). I'm happy to medical-pick your stories for you. Just ask. If it's not in my realm I might have run into it during residency or can help look it up. I, in theory, have a degree in English but never officially graduated. (

I can sew and make my own jewelry. I don't do as much of it now thanks to the career-ending hand injury.

I play multiple instruments with the sax being my favorite. I haven't played in too long though.

And I can write. I'm actually pretty good at it. If I were to be known for anything, that is what I'd love to be known for. You can find my fanfic here on AO3. It's multi-fandom and I'm under the same name on FFN (which has a lot of older stuff I haven't migrated yet.)

I'm also professionally published under two pen names. I only have one short story under the name I hope to switch to in the next few years but I've been publishing a decade now in LGBT romance and you can find that on Amazon here. Kept Tears was awarded an honorable mention on the Rainbow awards so I figure I'm doing something right.

I'm well traveled and want to do more of that. I try to be chatty and understanding but I don't always succeed in being that or I say things wrong but I try.


Day 8 - Rec at least three fanworks that you didn’t create

I should have done this one when we were reccing communities but check out comment_fic on LJ. Plenty of fun stories there

oh hey I recognize one of these 😸😻

[cornerofmadness]

hahaha I bet you do. And one day maybe this summer I actually watch this show more than 2 episodes

[enemytosleep]

I'm sorry you're so banged up, but hopefully it's all healing up.

[cornerofmadness]

thanks. Luckily it's mostly soft tissue. I'm beginning to thing the ulna has a bone bruise

[teigh_corvus]

Those Supernatural and Lucifer fics look fantastic. Thank you for the recs!

[cornerofmadness]

No problem. I hope you like them

[thenewbuzwuzz]

So many degrees! :D

So how do your two separate pen names work? Different genres, I'm guessing?

omg, you recced me! :D Thank you!

[cornerofmadness]

I have more degrees than a thermometer (and I kinda want to get one mor)

One was strictly for LGBT romance (Jana) and the other will be for everything that is not romance so yes, it's genre based.

And you're welcome. I need to actually comment on the story mind you....

Saving the Lucifer and PS fics for later!! :D

[cornerofmadness]

Hope you enjoy them. (I'm pretty partial to the PS gifs too)

Very multi-talented! It really is crazy what depression can do to our self-image.

I'm glad things are healing, hopefully it's going to speed up.

[cornerofmadness]

depression is such a bitch.

Thanks. I think my knee is still bleeding as now the whole front of my leg is bruised.

[spindle_ella]

That's not good.

[cornerofmadness]

Well I stand most of the day so

[spikedluv]

I've obviously missed some of your posts; it sounds like you fell? I'm sorry you're still sore.

You are quite talented! I didn't know you also played an instrument in addition to your other skills! (Or I knew and forgot?) That's awesome.

[cornerofmadness]

Going to the faculty meeting I managed to try to kill myself by falling over my own two feet (in the most embarrassing way possible) and spent the morning in the ER (which was still less painful than the faculty meeting)

Pictures of boo-boos here. and here.

I don't talk much about my instruments these days as I haven't played in so long but yes I can

[tjs_whatnot]

BRB reading ALL your fics! I love short and sweet--well, I don't know if they're sweet yet, but short is definitely my favorite these days. ♥

[cornerofmadness]

Hope you enjoy all the offerings
