[HS] Ugh, not again

For those of you new to here, posts marked with [HS] or [Skin] are about my skin condition hidradenitis suppurativa (or HS for short), and are probably TMI. Click at your own risk, but I'm not going to friendslock them most of the time - this disease is here and people need to know about it. If you know me in person, it's kinda nice to know you know what I'm going through and that there's sometimes a reason I wince or yell "ow" out of the blue. Don't expect me to be comfortable talking about it face-to-face, but do expect me to try, and I am willing to do so.

( What is HS? Here's a simulation for you. )

( ETA: I love email. )

Direct linkage. I just can't stop watching it!

If my next vacation isn't to Australia, it's going to have to be to Telegraph Hill, San Francisco, to visit with the "Wild Parrots" - a flock of feral red-masked parakeets aka cherry-headed conures mostly descended from escaped/released pets.
