This picture I made will bring you joy (you have my word)...

1 of 2 things.

1. Now that the Venlor is completely out, am I feeling sore because this is just how it's supposed to feel when you get feeling back and you're back to being so super sensitive it's annoying?

2. It's not normal.

These are the thank you cards I designed for my wedding that never got used because life happened and I forgot. 12 years later using it for shoebox gift cards. Covering them, obvs.

This app's shortcut disappeared from my home screen and I forgot it existed. Anyway, as an organised hoarder, it brings me great pleasure to find ways to reuse the things I've hoarded.

I hope that you are never burdened by the grips of suicidal ideation spirals and then have to manage the feelings of others because their pain is obviously more important than yours. IDGAF about your justifications for being so self absorbed.

It's fascinating how people will agree that telling elderly parents about their children being in hospital or distress is not helpful because they will stress about something they can't do anything about. But eeeeeeeeeeveryone was so eager beaver to call my mom about my si spirals.

I'm making more of a concerted effort to open this app, but no one else is here. That and having to find my moots seems like such a massive task that I just close it again. 😭😭😭

View from my "office" today. Second CPUT conference this month.

So, I guess I'm here now.
