No studying? Damn! Next thing they'll tell me is I'll have to eat jelly doughnuts or sleep with a supermodel to get things done around here. I ask you, how much can one man give?

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Congratulations, Sheryl and family!

Traffic actually isn't bad this evening, so now I feel like I probably should cook something when I get home rather than eat leftovers.

What do I want? So many choices.

Because books.

Congratulations, Sheryl! That's awesome!

Gud, what everybody's said, especially Steph. I wish you could see yourself the way we all see you.

Congrats, Sheryl & fam! Gud, listen to them.

Omg, I am so mentally wiped and all it is is massive cleaning ahead and massive phone calling contractors and HOLES EVERYWHERE. Pumpkin jumped in one and made it into the rafters. I can't even. So much dust, so much adulting.

Spending another day next door. And showering. Second floor won't get water until tomorrow.

Coding and Sleeping

Congrats, Sheryl!!

I did talk with a therapist today, but there wasn't time to really get anywhere helpful. Everything seems so hopeless right now and there's always so much I need to do and I'm so slow. I mean it's already 9:30 here and all I've done is work, cook dinner, two loads of dishes, tidied up the kitchen, taken out garbage, a load of laundry, and cleaned a toilet. I still have a bunch to do and I'm already starting to get tired.

Gud, that is a lot to have gotten done!

GOOD. Now keep talking to the therapist. Please believe that it is as important as the other things you're doing, because it really is.

You need the rest of your house to help with the housework.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Yeah, Gud that is a ton to get done. Take care.

Honey, that's a LOT. and I say that as the only person responsible in my household (because I'm the only person) and the walls haven't caved in.

Well, OK, I am missing ceilings and shit, but that's unrelated.

I say this with love, your self perception is miscalibrated. Your instrumentation needs recalibration, cause it's reading out lies.
