as always, we’re back. how’s your week going folks

I’m bad at self care but I went to the optometrist last week and… my eyeglass prescription doubled. Did you know road signs have words on them? Huh!

Madness. Next you’ll be saying trees have individual leaves and not just big clumps.

It’s been pretty awful, sadly. As Neil Gaiman says, “Events are cowards. They come in packs.” It’s been one blow after another all week, and I don’t think I can handle any more bad news.

That’s incredibly sweet of you, alas I am in Canada and also would feel guilty because I don’t know how to accept gifts or kindness lol

You deserve both gifts and kindness. I snooped through your profile, are you still in the running for or did you get the job? I also have agoraphobia so I’m super proud of you for going to at least the two rounds :)

Goin’ aight. It was fun last week, but pretty busy for a summer week for me too. I had a friend over while they were in town for the summer, got to see Les Mis while there was a performance in SF, and was unexpectedly enlisted to help another friend practice for their driving test. All a great time, but maybe I’ll get some more time this week to tend to some personal hobbies and projects.

Aw fun! I watch the 25th anniversary concert with Alfie Boe (and yes Nick Jonas lol) regularly ☺️

Just got through a major pain of a week…moving around places nearby due to work going on in the house plus stupidly busy period at work means I will do basically nothing this weekend and it will be glorious!

Well, things have been up and down for me - lots and lots of stress factors from what feels like every potential facet of my life for a long time now. I’ve been working on trying to improve that where I can, and getting help from mental health professionals too.

But on the upside, yesterday I got to hang out with a couple of friends that I haven’t gotten to in a while, along with meeting some of their friends, and it was a blast! We did the “Last Wish” raid in Destiny 2 which was a very fun time! It did a very good job at reminding me that even though bad things can happen, there’s still some good moments to be had.
