@BookwormVaught I am so here for the discussion. I'm thinking a lot about magical realism, fantasy, neurospicy brains and making sense of stuff via narrative at the moment. Not least because I seem to have developed a minorly wonky/ bleedy brain

@RevampedCP I was refused a hospital parking permit as I lived 'too close' at 26 miles away. When I appealed no bus after the end of late shift I was told to organise my workload better and run for the 8pm one. I was a delivery suite midwife.
