@Danielle_Newby Oh hell yes! I momentarily forgot you’re British and like gin. All my American friends think I’m gross for liking gin 🤣🤣🤣

[Kristin Kostka @kricketchirps]

@mmPharmD LOVE these shoes!!! (Also didn’t know that other KK existed 🤣🤣)

[Kristin Kostka @kricketchirps]

@rheum_cat So. Many. Options.

I had not appreciated it!

@kyliejustine How is this acceptable? Ugh. Do better!

[Kristin Kostka @kricketchirps]

@rheum_cat How are they?!! I’ve been thinking of these fries ALL afternoon since you mentioned them. 😂

Just when I think things can’t get any stranger (medically), this week I learned I have a midgut malrotation and left sided appendix. One review I read claims it occurs in 0.03% to 0.5% of live births.

I am the intersection of so many rare medical statistics. It’s bananas.
