tiny frustrations

[(Anonymous)]

I wish the guy I have a crush on would look at me the way he looks in a mirror. :( And also, that I could turn off my fascination with the kind of man who checks his hair in every available reflective surface. Goddamnit.

I wish my body wasn't so overly susceptible to bugs. Another sinus infection, and I feel miserable, and I don't have any sick days left and only one vacation day left. Argh. I took a half day today, dreading going back to work tomorrow when all I want to do is sleep.

I started this drawing course online and it's fantastic and I'm already learning a lot of stuff, but I'm maybe too old to begin drawing seriosuly.
My neck has been giving me problems for a couple of years now, so when I want to practise for more than an hour it hurts a lot.
I'm only 32 years old lol

Do you work flat on a table, or do you have a drawing/drafting table type thing?

I’m also in my early 30s and have similar issues with my neck when doing things like collage and embroidery. I’ve found that having an elevated and/or slanted work surface helps.

I’ve seen proper slanting drawing surfaces for cheap on Craigslist and they also seem very DIY-able. (Most of the time I just use a wide, short cardboard box as a desk-top platform.)

Early 30s crowd here but I have been drawing (badly) for a while. Turns out I can't do it for as long as I did as a kid not because of my neck, but because of my wrist. It's my current drawing tablet's fault - the surface is too small so my wrist falls off, also the pen feels too thin (Wacom was a mistake).

Honestly I believe your issue could be ergonomics-related as well. Growing up (when I used to draw ... more often) I had an used president chair and it was something else. My current chair is an average gaming chair, and it's not the worst but for some reason (maybe my height lol) it forces my neck to bend forward so I have been in pain (good thing I don't actually game that much). Drawing tends to absorb us so it's going to strain your body unless you're fully comfortable. Do check if your chair is appropriate, height- and width-wise.

As a sidenote, may I ask what's the course? Just today I saw someone post on Twitter what they learned in 1 year and I was impressed, in a "I have been drawing for decades yet can't do this" way. This left me wondering if they have great resources or I am the untalented bitch (strongly leaning towards 2 though)

Older 30s here with back problems. Try doing regular exercises. And what do you use for learning? Try changing how and where you put your tablet/monitor/paper whatever. It will benefit you even if you are not going to draw in the future. Body has a tendency to fuck itself up in so many unique ways and it's better to learn them now

I'm bitchy because I'm out of weed and I have to get blood drawn tomorrow so I'm fasting which isn't helping the situation. Waah, woe is me.

I wish people had crushes on me

Wish I didn't feel overwhelmed by the amount of things I need to do and organize in life. I would say a good portion are fun things but I am so messy it ends up being a source of stress.

Before hitting the second line I imagined someone constantly turning their face to the side when they look at you, checking their teeth with their tongue…

(Hope it all goes the way you need, op)

Not exactly a tiny frustration, but there is drama around my fandom going on right now. And I just don't know what else to block. I've curated my social media to hell and back because my mental health can get only so many hits. And now I had to get through stressing shit in fandom space too.

Hope your crush situation goes well.

I can understand what you mean about being fascinated by a certain type a guy I know probably shouldn't fascinate me so much =[

I'm on the reverse end. I wish this creep at my job would stop staring at me so much and lingering around, dragging his feet in hopes that he and I will end up alone together so he can have another opportunity to try to talk to me when I've told him that I'm not interested in him. Leave me alone, stop noticing me.

I am both amused and a bit annoyed that I still haven't received an answer to a question I posed on Quora. I asked a guy to clarify why he thought it was sad that I was favorably comparing Raphael Warnock and Amy Klobuchar. I thought his take was baffling!
