Sometimes the hardest part isn't standing up for yourself, it's believing you deserve better in the first place.

Parents... Don't change your child's last name if you get remarried unless you have them legally adopted. Getting my birth certificate was next to impossible. Might be different now, this was in 2005

Day 10 - a song you can’t stand
I don't really want to post a link to any song I can't stand.. but pretty much anything by Motley Crue. I'll go with Girls, Girls, Girls.

This was good. The pickle flavor is pretty subtle. Not sure if I would get it again though.
About to try this (I've had the brand before but not the flavor)

Day 4: A song about your childhood sweetheart.
(Well, 1st real boyfriend in HS. Wouldn't call him a sweetheart)
This this the first I've ever heard of this song and it was because I was looking up songs about compulsive liars.

I miss being strong. And this was when I had two square blocks for a hip joint 🙁

Iron Lung seems like the type of movie that I want to get drunk and watch with nobody else around. I've never played the game and honestly from what I've seen it looks boring as hell. But watching weird horror movies and drinking alone at night? That's my comfort zone. And I never get that anymore 😢
