An opal.. "opal," it's probably plastic, earring held between my fingers. The opal has a metal loop around it like a planetary ring, and from a tiny chain dangles a tiny star. It is all very small.
New earring day! This one was a nuisance to get in, being internally threaded on the opal part, so I'm going to wear it a good long while.

Congratulations to your team! I am sorry you didn't get a shutout, or if they call it something different in football, one of those.

Bad Bunny's halftime show has me reflecting on my disappointment that the US education system as a whole isn't more committed to multilingualism. So many languages & cultures are part of our various communities & we ignore real opportunities to actually celebrate that as part of our broader culture

Things I am learning:
- only one man may dance when points are earned
- you get four chances to go ten yards, then you get four more if you do
- it's okay if you veer off the field of play, someone will catch you
- it's okay to grab another player by the pants
- I fear for their ankles, all

That's disappointing. They should all get to have a little dance.

Tampa skews more Cuban than Puerto Rican I think (I'm not a census) but there's a fair amount of both folks here and all of this seems incredibly.. normal.. to me? Like there is nothing here that strikes me as outlandish or offensive. It's a bop and you can dance to it.

- I think they have an offsides rule too but it's not as simple as hockey
- none of this is as simple as hockey
- the timer keeps going when play is not occurring?? why?
- anyway it's called a bowl because of tradition and one old stadium in particular
- there is no goalie equivalent

Things I know about football:
- they want to get the ball into the end zone; a dance may occur when this happens
- they seem inadequately protected for all of this
- there's a lot of piles of humans on the grass
- it is called a gridlock
- or a gridiron?

Now that I know why they call it a bowl, I have put on the super bowl for @weregeek.bsky.social's Seahawks. I know very little about football, being a hockey person, but I have been informed it is my patriotic duty to watch Bad Bunny later, too, so I shall do so.

NOW they're saying there's a chance the first rehab might reconsider & the others won't think about it til Monday.
So keep her until Monday, right? Wrong.
I told case manager I'm not trained or capable & they need to keep her until they can hand her off. What'll happen remains unknown.

Spiralling. They're going to send her home, not to any pt facilities.

She is "pending discharge to a facility" and I have spent my time in bed, in dog maintenance, or with pain medicine. So, not bad.

In a shocking turn of events, she could barely stand and we made the decision to send her back to the hospital.
Didn't even make it 24 hours.
I feel like I failed somehow even though I know I didn't. I told the EMTs, "I couldn't lift her," when it took two of them to do it. No shit I couldn't.
