Welcome to the trash heap. Purely for me.
Posting late at night leads to so many typos. When I read them again with my more awake brain I cringe at all of the errors. But this is my mental junk yard. So I don’t really care.

I didn’t realize how much of a literacy epidemic we are experiencing until 2 years ago. Some parents told me that they could not help their 2nd grader with his homework because they cannot read.
I wasn’t always a good reader. I was falling behind in 1st grade and my kind teacher changed my life.

How a flawed idea is teaching millions of kids to be poor readers
For decades, schools have taught children the strategies of struggling readers, using a theory about reading that cognitive scientists have repeatedly debunked. And many teachers and parents don't kno...

Sometimes I forget I have a higher pain tolerance than the average bear.

Sometimes I still viscerally cringe thinking about the time 10 years ago I was trying to ask a guy to a dance with a group of my friends and the guy I asked wouldn’t come to the room in order for me to ask him.

Every time I hear the word “prosciutto” I automatically think of a cheese. It just feels like a cheese name to me. My vegetarian ass can never seem to remember that and friends have to remind me before I order something with it.

I was unpacking & stopped on my yearbook from senior year for some reason. So many kind wishes & people telling me, 10 years ago, that I’m going places, that I’m beautiful & that I make the world a better place…now none of those things are true and it breaks my heart to see how wrong they were.

Someone told me a guy in their neighborhood pulls the kids around in his tractor every year for Halloween, cute right?
When I was 8 my friend died suddenly in a freak accident while being pulled in a trailer like that.
It’s illogical but that brought up some deep rooted trauma.

I just realized of I die now my niece won’t have any memories to remember me by when she’s older. And my sister’s having another babies next year so I have to live at least another 7 years so that child can remember me too.

I redownloaded some social media and remembered why I deleted it in the first place. It makes me feel inadequate and reminds me of how sad and alone I am

I’m a very dramatic person, and yet, when a nurse asks me to rate my pain suddenly I don’t want to seem dramatic.
I had acute appendicitis and still only said a 5.

The fact that I was fired this month and none of my friends are willing to get together with me on my favorite holiday says something.

I feel like some people just look like they should be blonde. Like Chris Evan’s and Glen Powell always look like they should be blonde to me. Even when their hair is clearly brown I feel like they have blonde hair.

I just spent 4 hours and 45 minutes curling my hair with a 3/8 inch curling iron and I don’t even like the tight curls on me.

I love my niece so much it makes my heart hurt that she lives across the country. If I ever found out someone hurt her I would fly out immediately and track that person down.

I think something fundamental is broken in me. I have no intrinsic motivation, at all. I literally have no motivation to do anything on my own for myself.

Remember when tv shows used to be 30 minutes long and have 24 episodes in a season instead of hour long episodes and 6 in a season?

I’m so depressed I haven’t left the house, or really my bed, all say. I’m still in my pajamas at 6 pm and I made popcorn that was too salty, made my tongue swell up and gave myself a headache.

I want my ex manager to know that she would be listed and culpable in my 13 reasons why. She knew that I have severe depression and am on several antidepressants. Firing someone with mental health issues, for no reason, knowing it could set them off is inhumane. It’s lucky I’m on my pills and stable

The more I look at available jobs the more angry I get that I was unjustly fired from my well paying job. I am so angry that they upended my life for no reason.

Being an adult means I can do what I want. That includes making bad decisions that will make me feel sick like ordering deep fried food at midnight. Or my lactose intolerant ass deciding to eat cheese curds late at night. I will not be able to sleep tonight.

Being fired, for reasons beyond my control, sucks so bad. It was shocking as before the weekend everyone was raving about what an amazing job I was doing. Then I come back and I’m fired before I even get to my desk. I’m so angry they betrayed me this way when I was doing good work.
