I graduated

cornerofmadnessThe oncologist has graduated me to only having to come twice a year instead of every three months so that's good news. Quite happy about that.
So I did damage to my wallet in celebration. I went to Bahnhof WVrsthaus & Biergarten for a reuben. Was going to get a cocktail with my lunch but wanted to try the giant cream puff. Both of which were the same price as the sandwich and didn't want to have a 50$ lunch.
I got the cream puff
This is enough for 3 days of desserts. It was chocolate peppermint. Next time I'll do the cocktail. Wish I could have stayed for their Krampus nacht but this is in a dodgy area near downtown/Marshall's campus.
Hit the comic book store, Michael's and lost my ever loving mind in the Italian section of HomeGoods.
So a while back I got two of the mooncat nail polishes which I mentioned. Here are my thoughts
Hell is Other People Side note: this is a color match to my living room curtains (I have a preference apparently)
It covers well with just one coat compared to say OPI, China Glaze or Morgan Taylor (which are the other pro ones I've used) That said even with Mooncat's overpriced top coat, this stuff chipped within hours. By day three I had to remove it. So, while pretty I can't see it for the price.
404: Soul Not Found Okay I totally failed with the magnet but to be fair 1) I have no idea what I'm doing 2) I have almost no nail right now so I can't put the magnet UNDER the nail as instructed.
Amazing coverage. 2 coats and you can't even see how terribly ridged my nails are from the anemia. Also I am absolutely fascinated with the color change. I've had color change polish before but not one of this quality. Some light it's emerald in other purple, and yet others teal blue to almost black. It took 48 hours to chip it (also had the over coat) Now this one I would do again and would consider other magnetics.
Also there has to be bad news in one of my days right? At 130 I got a text from the company my insurance uses for Dexcom and they can't fill my order because they always do it for a quarter and I'm losing this insurance in 3 weeks. At 230 my sensor acts up. At 5 the sensor dies 3 days early. Guess who has to call the endocrinologist tomorrow for some emergency test strips to carry me over til January because I don't even know if the shit new insurance will even cover a CGM.

Date: 2025-12-06 10:50 pm (UTC)I have just one nail polish these days- it's an Essie brand one. Kind of shiny? My mom bought it for me because she was feeling bad over seeing my nails in bad shape. ^^;
