What happened on Thursday really stressed me out. I haven't been this tense in a while. I know when I tried to fall asleep Thursday night, I was so freaked out internally that my extremities were going numb. I just had no good way to chill out ( Read more... )

I opened a fresh package of dryer sheets yesterday. I'm not a big fan--I use my dryer hedgehogs when I do loads of only my items--but I'll use them with the communal laundry. For my stuff, only my bed sheets and face masks get washed with my parents' clothes, so those are the only linens exposed to the dryer sheets ( Read more... )

(I debated on whether I should edit my original post or do a separate one, and ultimately, I decided to bump up my post numbers for next year. :P )

Well, this is weird.

A day after I made my big, long post about what I've been dealing with over the past few weeks, I heard from my trigger object. More than once, even. I do have an answer on God ( Read more... )

( I've had this title in my head for almost two weeks now. )

My long week continues. I think I'm getting better, but I still haven't wanted to be around people. To wit, I didn't go downstairs yesterday until after 1 PM. This is a big red flag to my family, because if there is one thing I do, it's eat breakfast. I *always* eat breakfast. If I eat nothing for the rest of the day, I'll still do that. I ( Read more... )

I've been stressed out this week, and hormonal, and guess what happens when I'm stressed and hormonal? That's right, I get big gross zits that appear on my face. I'd already had one on my right side a little above the corner of my mouth. Then, a few days ago, I started having a lump appear near the first, a little off from being under my nose.

My week still isn't that great, but at least I've been in more of a mood to do things. I did watch TV in the morning yesterday, but in the afternoon, I cut out patterns for several masks. I'd wanted to make a few more for myself, and YC had requested one, so now they are ready to be pinned and stitched for whenever I get around to it. I did ( Read more... )

Today wasn't a very good day for me. On Gilmore Girls, one episode talks about Luke's "dark day"; this is it for me. It's...complicated, and I'm not going into it, but I was very thankful to have the day off so I could spend six hours watching Little House, including the two-episode Sylvia story line. Sometimes it's just nice to get away from ( Read more... )

This is the day I've been dreading: Recreational marijuana is now legal in Illinois ( Read more... )

Last weekend sucked. Through a series of events during the week, I had thought there would be positive things that would happen. They didn't. The chain reaction was severe enough that I basically spent the entire weekend in bed. The worst part about that was it was the one nice weekend we've had since May; everything else has been hot, or cold ( Read more... )
