...terrifyingly dark Hamburglar, relishing in my instant unease. The Hamburglar was about to give chase, and my only hope for survival was to find this impossible path to freedom within the maze. The maze looked like the shape of a mountain that a toddler drew, but the inner workings were...

Thank you!

You spelled "determined and time-efficient" wrong, sir. That there is the hero we all need.

That was a whole lifetime ago, hey? What gets in your way? I can do a little bit at a time, but not marathons like I used to, because that requires focus and sitting still and *not* going thru the entire list of shit I'm not getting done in my head and feeling guilty about it.

It's a grilled peanut butter and jam sandwich with the crusts cut off sort of day.

Yes. This.

This is pretty much the best thing I've seen today.

If The Voice and Love is Blind had a baby, it would be Building the Band, which is sort of my obsession right now.

This is horseshit. I applaud this teacher for their restraint. The kid needed to just shut the fuck up.

No wonder the world is full of entitled assholes. A kid blatantly misbehaves, the adult gets in shit for hurting their little fee-fees with a file folder.

I finally tried sleeping with a pillow propped between my knees last night. This is the first morning in a long time I didn't wake up with hip pain, which I believe makes me at least 40% more pleasant to be around.

One little pillow, just changing lives like it's no big deal.

Today is my "get shit done" day. Unreasonably long list of things to do.

The ADHD training I've started (an app... my last resort until I can see a damn doctor and start medication) says to take small breaks, to break the list up.

My break has now lasted 4.5 hours and counting. This is great.

Thank goodness for 80's music on repeat and endless mindless Netflix (not at the same time) to occasionally distract me from what I imagine to be my impending doom #adhd #anxiety

I am seriously considering deleting all games off my phone and immersing myself completely in reading and self-improvement apps.

As someone who grew up with an intense love of books, it astounds me that this is a difficult choice to make.

Just started watching The Blacklist. 4 episodes in and I've concluded that the profiler is completely out of her mind. Oh, my job requires me to come within an inch of dying horrifically EVERY SINGLE DAY? Sign me up.

If it were me, I think I would just get a different fucking job.

If you're considering a cruise, you need to watch "The Poop Cruise" or "Amy Bradley is Missing", and then think REAL hard. Save yourself.

Doomscrolling is so much nicer here than fb. There's no "buy this shit", distracting me from distracting myself. Five stars, highly recommend.

Thank you, Netflix, for the reminders, in the form of documentaries, that cruises are always a bad idea.

And for the 1,759th time in my life, I have come to the realization that nothing has gone according to plan. I am devastated. Who knew one wrong decision (I was making what I felt was the best decision I could have made, with the choices I was given) would derail fucking EVERYTHING for years??

I'm having a moment of realization that I have spent the past three decades creating a very complicated life for myself, getting in my own way at almost every opportunity, making terrible, impulsive choices, and leaving very little time to turn it around.

Is this... is this my midlife crisis?!

This sums up last night's night shift... only nothing was actually fine. I will shamelessly drink a beer on my patio when I get home, and I don't care what the neighbors think. I. Don't. Care.

The purge continues.
Amazon shopping app and streaming services... gone. Instagram... gone. Shein and temu... gone. No more social networking revolved around advertising. No more frivolous spending.

Quitting FB cold turkey is as expected—I keep grabbing my phone for notifications, more often than I'd like to admit. I miss the serotonin boosts, but not the ads, keyboard warriors, or negativity. It was the right choice; now I’ll focus on reading more books. Got recommendations?

Nala having a big pout because Mom just spent 30 minutes bathing her, and won't let her outside to roll in the dirt.

Life is hard.

Random weirdo question for the day: Is there anyone else that has had a recurring dream in the past, but it stopped recurring, and you wish you could dream it again because it didn't suck, plus it's like having deja vu, which is cool in a super comforting way?

Just me? Cool.

Sleep deprivation makes everything hilarious. Even this nonsense.

No matter where we are... if Nala finds a Very Good Stick, she's gonna keep it.
