Find a therapist!

Not just any, keep looking until you find the RIGHT therapist for you.

20+ years in and out of the system and I’ve finally found my lady and it’s liberating beyond expression

God, I hate having to terminate someone I like as a person. So freaking draining

Word of wisdom to those who’ll hear it;

Third day of newly increased mental health meds dosage is NOT the correct day to forget to take them in the am.

You will have a rough day and possibly even run your mouth a bit more than usual

Raising Cane’s:

Someone please explain the hype to me. Am I doing something wrong? Some secret menu item I need to add? Because I find them to be marginal and overpriced, at best. I just don’t get it

My god, if I survive this boy to his 21st, I may just owe my mother an apology for all my shenanigans. Granted, I remember mine being more fun…..lol

1 in 12 Americans live in California.

1 in 35 Americans live in LA County.

LA is America

You all know the song, how do you know it’s love? It’s in his kiss. Bullshit!

Show me a man who hears you’ve had a rough day and has vodka cranberries waiting for you when you get home. THAT’S how you know it’s true love

Got brave (or stupid) and decided to give Del Taco another try this evening since it’s been a few years……had to leave work 2.5 hours early.

10/10 for taste

1/10 for after-effects

0/10 do not recommend
(Unless I don’t like you, then please go eat there!)

Just wanna say thanks to Chik-Fil-A. Every single time I’m about to break down on my moral stance and eat there, it’s a Sunday and they’re closed. Thanks for helping me become a stronger person!

At Pink’s for our tenth, because how else do you celebrate a decade of gay marriage than shoving a footlong down your throat?

How do you invite your 15-year-old child to someone’s home for a week long visit in another state without ever speaking to the actual adults in the home? Further, how do you have him arriving *ON* his 16th birthday and relay a message to β€œmake it special and do something fun for him” but fund nada?

Nothing quite like a major cat food reset humbling you into remembering you’re not 20 any longer….

Holy crap, I’m tired!

And dog food starts in 2 weeks….

Apparently $10 in wooden hangers is an absolute need which I’m expected to provide, but walking the dogs more than once a day at home is β€œnot my job”

Someone send this entitled 19 year old some help cause he’s fixing to need it

Oh! We made it! Sorry all, life got a little crazy when we actually arrived

But we’re in Cali, safe and sound. We have an apartment. And I start work tomorrow.

Out things get here on 4/8, so β€œcamping” in the apt until then πŸ˜‚

Yuma!!!!! (That may be the very first time anyone has ever been this excited to be here….😳😬)

Only 235 miles remaining for tomorrow. Should give us enough time to get some basics set up and maybe look around a bit before bed

Forgot to check-in last night….we’ve made it to Van Horn, TX. Have roughly 850 miles left. Shooting for Yuma, AZ tonight, leaving us roughly 250 miles for tomorrow and we are done!

Them: we call it the woke mind β€œvirus” to communicate how deadly and awful it is and that it must be eradicated.

Also them: enh, measles is FINE.

Can I just say this has been one of the longest and most difficult weeks of my life? One more day of packing and loading to go

β€œDue to higher than usual call volumes, we no longer have any agents available to assist you. Please try your call again later” - IRS Identity Helpline March 2025

Is it really a higher volume of calls….?or maybe a little more of the old β€œfind out”….? πŸ€”
