I'm so annoyed with myself. I think the cleaner threw away my medicine. I'd only recently refilled it and had about 3 weeks left. I thought I'd put it away but realised too late that I didn't. I can't find it anywhere, and it's not with my other medicines that I did put away.

Why must January weather either be heatwave mode over 35Β°C, or unseasonably cold under 20Β°C plus rain and wind. Would love something between those temperatures and a bit of sun please! Is it too much to ask?

I know that 'y/n' in self-insert stories stands for 'your name', but I keep reading it as 'yes/no'. Why can't they write it as (your name) in parentheses like that?
