Thanks! It hasn't been great, that's for sure.

Whyyyyy does my Charleston coffee have a shrimpy aftertaste?? I hate you, Charleston.

Had my first full shift yesterday (where a lot of people called out apparently). I'm starting out as a closer, and I get off at 11 pm. I am old and out of shape. 🫣 I don't remember the drive home and my feet wouldn't stop throbbing until 2:30 this morning.

Back among the working class again, finally. After quite a bit of runaround, I did end up getting a job at Publix after all. Now the hemorrhaging of my savings account can slowly stop! 🥳

the human body was not designed to know what the worst person in the world is doing every fifteen minutes

Being uncomfortable is not the same as being harmed.

Had an endoscopy for my esophagus today. First experience with anesthesia. Right before I went out I thought, "Is this what euthanasia feels like? Is this what Remi (my dog) felt?" I didn't want to wake up. Best 10-15 minutes of sleep I ever had.

Had a dream I had to join the army and I barely passed. Anyone who scraped by had to use doors with signs above that said "Squeakers" everywhere they went.

I have an interview Wednesday. My hormones are wack and I'm super emotional. God, please let this pass by then.

Applied for a job at Publix online. Went to the store yesterday to introduce myself so hopefully they know I really am interested. They may have an opening. I am so scared to be hopeful.

Giving up for Lent.

This is how you become a writer: just pick one of the things that is deeply wrong with you. Make it a character. Now send it on a self-help journey or try to kill it. Now call it a book.

I really do think this is an excellent metaphor for the moment.

I think I might be a little manic today, sorry.

I wish I could put into words how much I love art. I wish I could learn all the techniques for every concentration. I wish I had money to pay every artist whose work delights and awakens the spark of life in me for even just a moment.

I found it! It was in my mom's car, which is weird because I rarely ride with her anymore.

japanese volleyball player makes the most genuine apology after accidentally hitting someone with his serve

I pulled a muscle in my neck/shoulder while washing my hair this morning. 😩

recorded a Windows 95 full disk defrag to soothe your timeline.

So I've gained a lot of weight again. More than what I lost. Depression sucks. I just bagged most of my clothes that I can't wear anymore & hid them away. I feel like not having to see what I miss wearing will help me come to terms with where I am & not constantly feel guilty.

Tag yourself; NO MEANING

Life, liberty, and the purse soup of happiness

Burgh noodling. Big fan of nooks. And crannies.

Behold my banana pancake fails! I present butt, turkey, and fat penguin.

Also this is maybe a frivolous little aside, but indulge me: Putting genuine work out into the world is important because it is necessary to create the kind of environment where people know what the real thing looks like so they can more easily recognize and call out the bullshit when they see it.

Quality performance art. Easy to parse, thematically relevant, kinda gross. Love it.

I can tell the cold front is coming because my big toe hurts. 👵🏻

Today is the 10th anniversary of this gif of me showing how to make games on TV.

Borderline (thriller on Peacock) was not what I thought it was going to be. 😂 The preview image is misleading.

I feel seen

ME:

I'd rather slam my head into the wall than ask AI for help on this creative problem, Thanks

I felt like making some art last night/today and could have made something beautiful and/or meaningful but I made this instead. It's a Barbie Yaga Malibu Dream Hut. No regrets. Can't defeat fascism without joy.

There’s nothing stopping the Kool-Aid Man from pretending to be a portable hot tub and swallowing people whole. But he doesn't. Impeccable restraint.

I have felt better today than I have in a month. But then I cooked a lot for my dad's birthday and am pooped again. 🫠

One day I hope to snag one of her pieces. 😭

Went to sleep at 2 am. Woke up at 4 am. Still awake. 😩

[Alien family passing Earth] *door lock noise*

They did a 48 Hours episode about it. It airs tonight.

I can now add penicillin drugs to my allergy list. 🥴 But I had some amusing Benadryl dreams last night at least. Carpooling with @schlazor.bsky.social, eating at magic roadside food carts, attending services in an American doll-sized house, bakeries in broken down U-hauls.

Me, sick, sleeping for 10-12 hours: Wow, I feel SO better. Maybe I'll actually clean today. Me, getting up and immediately upon coming downstairs: Oh, I feel terrible. 😵‍💫
