I wanted to do many things this weekend, but I was neglecting myself. So, I got my dog bathed and haircut, and started my re-tie on my locs, cuz when I say they were looking ROUGH! Didn't finish tonight, so I'll be doing more tomorrow. Fingers crossed.
Who's ready for another #FlashFictionFriday? I know I am! This one shows you why your imagination can often be better than reality. Available at 4pm CT as always.

Sinuses so inflamed it's making my teeth itch.
Anyway, can we start charging these creeps or what?
I swear I do a better job at spell check when I'm publishing stories. Lol
Ugh, Inception. It was Inception. Sorry. First day of my period. My brain doesn't work.
Insomnia pissed me off randomly. It used to be my go to sleep movie, but one night, all I could hear was DiCaprio's overacting. I can't tell you how angry it made me! π€£π€£π€£
If you need rocketmoney to tell you you've got 3 doordash accounts that you're actually paying for, you've got much bigger problems my friend.
The wrong public figures keep dying!
My worst experience thus far in 2026:
Get my septum repierced and getting a head cold a week later. π«€
We cannot make true what isn't. No matter how good it feels.

I am losing weight. How do I know? Cuz my titties is shrinking. Le sigh.
I don't know who needs to hear this, but keep up on your med schedule. It's the only reason you're feeling level.
And if you're not feeling well, imagine how much worse it'd be if you WEREN'T taking them?
Did anyone become traumatized by Harry Connick Jr. In the 90s? Or was that just me? #movies

Y'all, when I say the flair up I had over the last two days... I wouldn't wish this pain on anyone. Not even him. Well, maybe him. #chronicillness
Second episode is out, and I couldn't be more proud. Nothing like co-creating with friends to ease your depression!
Go watch!
Fuck I'm so sad today. If you're reading this, I hope your day is better.
I literally laughed out loud knowing what you're talking about, but yes. Dark comedy. I never thought of it that way, but that makes waaay more sense!
I love when I find random notes about a story in working on that say things like,
He get head, goes home, drinks, sets alarm, cares for penis.
My shorthand is phenomenal.

Yes!!!!! The point was to entertain the pit just as much if not more so than the royals on cushions. I hate when people put the work on a pedestal as though it's not to be touched. It's not fancy China. Have fun with it!
But they are adaptations of Shakespeare.... did people genuinely not know that? π«’
I generally only post about book stuff on here, when I post, but damn. This fucking country. (U.S.) I know how we got here, but how? We just allowing these thugs in uniform to kill innocent people in the streets? I'm so tired. But I am not giving up. Also fuck ice. Fuck drumpf.

I'm procrastinating, which is making me feel terrible which is putting me in a freeze state, which is horrible because I have deadlines.
How's everyone doing?
Does anyone else get a headache the first day of their period? Cuz what the fuck is even this?
I've never seen people more selfish than when they're all out participating in consumerism. Happy fucking holidays.
