    Pretty good: I finished reading Fauna which was wild. Spent the night in a nearby hotel with the family because of this hurricane: our house is surrounded by huge trees so we were worried.

    For a second I thought you were talking about writing, and I was like holy heck that’s a lot of books!

    And well, it still is!

    I’m excited. I’m going to see Green Day tonight! Plus Rancid and The Smashing Pumpkins

    Today is my birthday! so wish me a happy birthday bee party emoji

    Took a week off from work last week. Maybe you could tell because I wasn’t on Beehaw all the time posting stupid memes lol. Spent the week dogsitting for my parents. I packed my gaming PC and made some great progress in Dork Souls 2, and binged those Castlevania animes on Netflix. I love to match “vibes” like this across my media I’m consuming. I also took the opportunity to take a lil t-break from the devil’s lettuce, and i’m definitely better off for it. Most importantly, I got in lots of R&R and I feel more rested, happy, and creative than I have in months. Back at work now and amazed how much easier my job is when i’m not constantly fighting burnout.

    Edit: thank you all for the well wishes, I saw every one and they all made my day better 😊

    Been sick for 13 days, went in to urgent care yesterday because it had progressed to a sore throat in the last few days and turns out it’s strep. Glad I’m on antibiotics and hoping to feel better soon.

    Lil bit of a bummer, feels like I just exercise, work, and sleep. My limited free time has been spent on my family, which… ughhhh by the time I realized they mistreated me all my life and I hate them, they’d lost power over me, so basically they’re not pushing me around anymore and think we’re all friends, and I don’t know how to tell them that I’m retroactively spiteful. So I play nice.

    Gonna try so hard to get some reading and drawing done in the coming days.

      I feel that. If you have a job that gives you a balance of days off, make sure you are using those! I know i have been bad about that in the past and it contributed to burnout.

      This is really hard. I don’t know your whole situation, but this seems like the kind of situation where you will never really get to share your feelings with them unless they realize they made mistakes that they should apologize for. Otherwise, sharing your emotions seems like it’ll just lead to more mistreatment. But that’s just my two cents, and I’m no professional. I hope that reading and drawing is restorative for you ❤
