Update
I just went through and manually deleted all the entries here - although I backed up both the entries and comments in Scrivener first, because posterity and also maybe a little bit because evidence.
There are a few of you that I haven't had contact with for a while. I'm pretty sure that you all have alternate contact information for me, if you feel like using it, although I think the private message and text message functions are still active here if I'm wrong. I've abandoned most of the social platforms I was on, but I'm on Facebook regularly, specifically because I can hide and/or block people there, and that currently takes precedence over everything else.
I moved to Hawaii a few months ago, which is as far away from Seattle as I could get while staying within states where I could keep my job but not ending up in Florida (because no). The sunshine is like a million billion antidepressants. My knee socks are useless, my feet are filthy by the end of the day, there's a papaya tree in the backyard, and I'm developing freckles, I changed my name (not legally, just going by a completely different name), and I'm applying to school, adjusting to the cost of living (which: holy shit), connecting and reconnecting with lovely people, and generally starting to feel like a person again - which hopefully means I can start looking for community organizations to volunteer for. Stability needed to happen first. So I'm ok.
