Useful shopping this weekend for some winter clothes which needed replacing. 2 hoodies and a pair of track pants. Looking forward to coziness. Although it’s annoying that things just don’t last like they used to, quality is so much lower than it used to be.

I think I prefer more time in the morning. I liked how it took so long to get to midday today.

I was thinking: maybe I could be one of those people who goes around to schools and talks to the students about the realities of drug addiction.

Maybe.

TIL pooped and pooped are two different words entirely

I should announce that I am making a short blast on a horn when I go poop.

Stopping by after a very long absence to introduce you all to Mabel:

I am OBSESSED with her and I am just showing her off to every single person I’ve ever met.

7:30 and I’m ready for bed. Was awake at 6 tho.

I hear you.

Looking forward to the reunion for mafs, last few episodes have been a snore fest. Don't think I'll be watching future seasons though, been getting more and more obvious with the forced storylines by the producers and clear terrible matches.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Sometimes I read the mafs subreddit despite never having seen an episode.

It's oddly entertaining.

It's so dark 😓

I almost want to turn the heater on for emotional support. But it's 19 degrees inside so I will refrain. But it looks cold.

It really doesn't help that I've just returned from 10 days in a tropical island resort. It's like being plunged into winter all at once.

Pretty sure I’ve had my last friend step down to acquaintance.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Want to write something nice, but also I know the feeling so will just say hang in there.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago

Hugs. I prefer animals to people, no bullshit games.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Ouch, I'm so sorry ❤️

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

We are here for you.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago

I feel like life is slowly grinding me down.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

That and seems like it’s Groundhog Day. Definitely not just you feeling this way….

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I think a lot of us experience something similar every now and then. A feeling of hopelessness and heaviness and inertia. Hopefully you can walk through it and out the other side. Hugs.
