I feel as though I've started the year by dealing with the cold weather (mostly by staying indoors) and having a cold (which I suspect I should have taken seriously sooner than I did). Neither of these are helped by the fact that I've had my menstrual period not-quite-continuously since December 19. My notes say "maybe enough to count December 30, 31" and there was only a bit of spotting on January 4 and 5, but that's still nineteen of the past 23 days, and counting. Fortunately, while it's been somewhat messy it hasn't hurt much.
I ordered two pairs of earrings from![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
elisem recently. When I ordered, she sent a note saying they would look good on me (because of my coloring). They arrived today, and are as nice as I hoped.
I'm seeing my doctor tomorrow, for follow-up on a couple of things; I will mention the cold while I'm there, but don't expect her to tell me to do anything different than I already am.
Other than that, I've been spending a lot of time on the Zooniverse "Cheetahs of Namibia" project, which I find more rewarding than the "elephant expedition," or the Cleveland and Chicago park wildlife projects: I haven't spotted many cheetahs in the photos, but very few photos have "nothing here." Along with the few cheetahs and leopards, there are a lot of pictures of baboons; warthogs; birds; oryxes, kudus, and other antelopes; and once in a while something like a giraffe, aardvark, or honey badger. There are about fifty possible classifications (including "livestock" and "bird (other)," and I'm amusing myself by keeping a list of the ones I have found so far.
*Yes, I know oryxes are antelopes. But oryx, warthog, baboon, and "bird (other)" are what I see most of.
