I guess this is back to being my place to process.
A weekend after my sad time in a Big Lots parking lot with a chicken sandwich, I feel only a little less crazy. Stress is funny.
I went and got a couple of cartilage piercings weekend before last. The swelling and pain built to the point I was worried last week. I went to the college clinic, then back to the place where I got pierced. The over all consensus being everything looks clean, just painful, and you had your ears stabbed clean through, what did you expect? The next morning I woke up having had a little more drainage, but less swelling and pain. Since, I'm just stuck with this livable but searing ache.
And if you read all that, here is the very obvious metaphor. I am ok, but, I dunno, my being, I guess, aches like my ear - constantly and annoyingly with nothing to stop it. Just maintenence until it heals itself I guess. Meanwhile I have to continue trudging through my life like nothing is different and hope I don't agitate anything.
I miss 2019. At least while I was crazy then, I had cosplay and DnD. If something doesn't give, I swear, they are going to see me walking around this campus in full Makise Kurisu. Ive already been trying to befriend the crows here, so DnD is already rearing it's head.
