Mostly non-existent. Nothing of all happened of note with work, nothing of note has happened since, and I'm at pain level 9 again and unable to swallow anything though already dehydrated, and that is also not particularly out of the ordinary these days. :/

Terrible. Something is wrong with my car. Hoping it is just my oil pressure sensor but worried it is my oil pump. Used cars are too expensive right now to have to buy a new one.

Ugh. I'm having IBS issues. It sucks. And ironically its because I'm having medical anxiety (need to see a doctor for mammogram and pap smear). I hate that I'm like this lol.

Meh. I took public transit to two out of the way grocery stores looking for weird stuff they normally carry (sunflower sprouts and some prepared deli stuff at one, fresh sliced whole grain bread and hard to find tropical fruit at another) and they were both out.

I got some other things, but now I have to figure out what to make with them instead of the meals I was planning to make. And at this point I should probably just grow my own sunflower sprouts, but if I grow them inside mice will get them, and outside mice, birds, and slugs will.

I was going to check out a specialty pet bird store next to the second grocery store, but it looks like they went out of business or moved without anyone updating their website or yelp listing. I can't find the bird mite spray I used to get for my hens anywhere online or at big pet store chains; I was hoping they carried it.

I also went to my favorite plant nursery but the selection was kind of picked over and stuff was wilting in the heat, so I didn't buy anything.

Now I'm headed to the transit station on one bus to catch another home, and a dude got on the empty except for me and the driver bus, sat down right behind me, put his arms on my seat back, and leaned over to loom and/or leer at me. I got up and moved.

I hope the rest of the week is better, but I have to work so idk.

I am OK. Crying a lot, but feeling good that I was able to start processing a lot of things.

I'm the anon who rambled about the body shaming. Thank you for the responses to the nonnies who replied! You made me cry!

It hurts thinking about how ugly I felt when in reality I was just another normal child. The intensity of my anxieties over my looks were so severe, my adult heart really aches for young me. =( No one loved me at all, not the way I needed. The world is so cruel to children.

Onto a random thought...I remembered that the boy in 7th grade who made me feel uncomfortable had beef with another boy (who I had suspected had a crush on me in 6th grade but insecure me at the time thought that maybe it was my friend being weird when she'd keep telling me she thought I'd look cute dating him). In retrospect, I think it had something to do with me (sorta, but also not really, but because race comes into play IDK it may have had something to do with me). I don't want to write it out because it sounds like a fucking teen drama, and I don't know if it's just my overactive imagination or if there really was something there (I'm sorry for speaking in tongues, I feel weird for even thinking this LOL). Ugh, sorry, I'll stop rambling...

Just want to say, I can't stand know-it-alls. In a conversation online with some friends. Me: Oh, depends on what [place] is for. Person 2: Begins to describe [place] in a general sense. Me: That's not what I meant....I know what a [place] is.

I really hate how certain communities on the internet will go to great lengths to put people who "always have the answers" on pedestals like they are gods or something. And if you're 'wrong' about some random fact then it puts your credibility into question. Which is hilarious considering that 'facts' aren't necessarily true, especially if the source was from a website or social media.

I miss the days where you could just have a discussion, rather than having people tell you "this is how it is". It could also be that I'm just in a really toxic place right now. It's annoying as hell and I'm really tired of it. The group think is too strong.

Do they cap off their redundant explanation with “…but that’s not important right now?”

Gee, I decided to switch to light beer to lower my alcohol intake and wouldn't you know it, one sip and all the bubbles don't fucking process well and I'm hacking my entire fucking spleen up. That's what I fucking get for trying to transition slowly, stupid me. Wouldn't be surprised if I destroyed my vocal chords. That's the one thing left on this body that hasn't been fully ruined, so of course they have to go.

Getting really sick and tired of people screeching about how (fully vaccinated) people who don't wear masks don't care about anyone else.

I'm fully vaccinated. I stopped wearing a mask a while back unless I'm going into a place that requires one to be worn. Wanna know why? Because if I try to wear one in this heat and humidity, it triggers my migraines! I literally can't do it for longer than maybe 20-30 minutes unless I want to end up in excruciating pain for the next 8-12 hours.

If other people want to still wear masks, they're more than welcome to, and I maintain social distancing just as a basic courtesy. But dammit, stop trying to guilt me for not wanting to have constant migraines. That was half the reason I got vaccinated in the first place because last summer was absolutely miserable for me whenever I had to go anywhere!

idk who's screeching about this in your circle, anon, but I wouldn't. Honestly, vaxxed people who feel comfortable without a mask are in the best of all worlds right now. I still mask even though I'm vaxxed because I literally don't trust the rural contingent that comes into the city to do their shopping to not be lying about their vaccine status. I would rather be the weirdo still wearing a mask to feel safe, but I absolutely would never rag on someone who is vaccinated being comfortable going without. Get it, feel good, be real. How can you even tell, if someone isn't wearing a mask, whether they're good to go? If you're vaxxed you're clear so what's the big fucking deal?

I keep going back and forth on this.

Personally, I don't think mask mandates should have been lifted anywhere for at least a couple more months. But I also know the crazies in my country and I also know even the somewhat reasonable ones were getting antsy.

I'm torn between thinking "Well, I'm vaccinated now, I shouldn't spread anything" and "what if I catch a new strain and it's the one they didn't anticipate getting even the vaxxed ones horribly sick?" Now I'm hearing arguments for continuing to wear your mask to reduce the incidence of mutations and then I feel guilty all over again. Or feel bad about considering going to places, even indoors, for longer than 10 minutes at a time. I do mask up in places that require it though.

Having a terrible day, probably going to have to buy a new car.

Went to the one place in our town with 3 pokestops where they can touch each other. All I need is a turtwig. Walked there in 94 degree weather. Thirty minutes in, one shows up. Give it a berry, take out the best balls. IT RAN THE FUCK AWAY. I almost threw my phone.

Sorry you're dealing with that. I'm a know it all sometimes and I even annoy myself.

Right now I have a toothache and am desperately hoping it goes away. I have dental insurance, but the coverage sucks and a root canal would take at least a third of my bank account, assuming I could find a dentist that takes my insurance at all. Plus my jaw hurts like fuck.

I feel so trapped in terms of career. I was a returning student so I didn't graduate from college until I was over 30. Then I spent three years teaching English in Korea. I'm an excellent teacher who exceeds the lesson plan and checks for comprehension very often. But teaching is exhausting. It's a huge emotional burden and I don't feel like doing it. I wanted to get a job in publishing because I'm a writer but I don't know anyone in the industry and I think it's probably my best method of figuring out how being a professional writer works. But I couldn't find any work in publishing and ended up working in a school, this time as a substitute teacher. The pay sucks and it's still exhausting. I just want to get a job in the industry I want to be in but I'm lost. There are no jobs here and I'm now 37. It feels like I'm destined to continue being broke, doing something that I'm good at but find exhausting. I'm so tired of this.

I’m tired of people shitting all over the Black Widow movie. “It’s too late”. So, a movie is terrible because it didn’t show up when you wanted it to? So, I’m not allowed to say that I liked it? Everyone fucking dogpiles on me then acts like I’m a moron for supporting one of the few female lead superhero movies out there. I cried. It meant something to me. Fuck you and your glorious “I’m tired of this” bullshit. I hated End Game, doesn’t mean you have to act holier than though at me because I liked a movie you didn’t. Where the fuck is this attitude coming from?

I have this Jehovah's Witness friend that was really supportive (one of only two people to be that way, actually) and kind to me recently during a bad phase of my life. And now she is sending me Amazon gifts that I don't really need, like a yoga mat and a sticker book. I know she's generous & just being really nice, but...she also wants to send me a JW Bible (that hasn't arrived yet). I just hope these gifts don't have a motive of JW persuasion behind them.
