Mental health screening for teenagers creates ridiculous high false positive rate but is considered "mandatory", leading to overperscription of needless meds. The numbers in this study are horrifying.

Dear New Dr. Boyfriend,

Thank you for not making an issue of my weight, for being cool about continuing my existing meds, and for being generally awesome. And for knowing what 'magical realism' is. Thank you for not recommending anything more complicated than a calcium supplement. I can do that, even though my life is kind of crazy sometimes.

<3, L.

In other news: I have a lovely print from haikujaguar, and a lovely little drawing to go along with it. My wrists and ankles hurt. This evening I have another meeting with one of Seaners' minions, and later tonight I'm really actually seeing a movie. I have not done any writing today so far, and that kind of sucks, but one can't have everything. Today's gone okay so far.

How about you?

although arguably I'm boring people who /do/ want to read fanfic with my weird life. :-D Huh.)
