Sometimes self care is showing up for something, realizing it's going to be too much, and leaving. Sometimes self care is showing up for something, realizing it's going to be too much, and staying. It's all about whether or not I can afford the recovery, and if it's worth it.

I stayed at someone’s house last week and they have a cat. And I never knew this but, when you go to sleep… cats just wander about the house catting all night? You can’t “put a cat to bed”?! The cat just… gets the house for a while?! Fucking nuts.

Got a devops devrel opening? Need someone who loves explaining things memorably? Want folks to feel welcome as heck? May I recommend: hiring me! That's right, I'm ready for a new opportunity to do what I do best - help people feel capable & included in technical spaces. (RT, pls)
I'm standing in front of a sign that says in bright call out letters "Trip Longworth, they/them or he/him" "Devops dork!" and "fun size!" (I'm short). I'm giving a thumbs up

Hey y'alls. I'm needing a twitter break, so hopefully won't be back on here for a bit. If you want to keep up with me I'll still be using IG (_knittynerd), or sir.rexy for pup pics.

Oh no I biked home today and my sinuses are very angry with me. Stupid false spring and all its beautiful flowers 🤧
Today I'm wearing red for #WorldEncephalitisDay. 18 months ago I fell ill with viral meningoencephalitis. While I'll never be same person I was before my illness, I'm adjusting to life, have found some new passions, and am generally happy. #encephalitis

I just rediscovered this post in my open tabs and wanted to share it. This post really accurately describes some of the issues I'm still struggling with / that I haven't found my own words to describe. weirdwonderfulbrain.com/post… #encephalitis

Vanishing self-confidence post encephalitis

Encephalitis shattered many things in a million little pieces. How do you rise again? What helped you build your confidence back up?

🎶 one of these things, is not like the other 🎶 For anyone keeping score at home, since I decided to train for a half I: 1) tripped over uneven sidewalk and sprained my knee 2) developed SI joint issues, started PT ...

3) got cleared to run again, developed acute tendonitis in my big toe 4) got cleared to run again and had a tug-o-war accident playing with the pup, now my toe is bruised and it hurts to walk. Maybe my PT was right about needing to find a new sport, running's cursed :\
