Links and It's Been a Day Already

I'm going to do a book rec post this week hopefully, but I wanted to post a few links and complain. We had a big storm last night and it knocked down part of our fence into the neighbor's yard. When I went out to take a look at it I noticed it also knocked the power line down onto our back fence. Still waiting for the utility company to show up. Also it might rain again.

Minor irritations: I forgot to mail something I should have mailed on Friday, that's taken care of now but I feel like a slacker.

Minor injuries sustained: I hurt my back and accidentally bopped a cat in the face. No emergency doctor or vet visits required.

April 16th I had a severe asthma attack, which led to acute respiratory failure. I spent 10 days in the ICU, intubated and heavily sedated and then spent a week in a rehab unit, doing PT and OT.
