If The Voice and Love is Blind had a baby, it would be Building the Band, which is sort of my obsession right now.

This is horseshit. I applaud this teacher for their restraint. The kid needed to just shut the fuck up.
No wonder the world is full of entitled assholes. A kid blatantly misbehaves, the adult gets in shit for hurting their little fee-fees with a file folder.

I finally tried sleeping with a pillow propped between my knees last night. This is the first morning in a long time I didn't wake up with hip pain, which I believe makes me at least 40% more pleasant to be around.
One little pillow, just changing lives like it's no big deal.

Today is my "get shit done" day. Unreasonably long list of things to do.
The ADHD training I've started (an app... my last resort until I can see a damn doctor and start medication) says to take small breaks, to break the list up.
My break has now lasted 4.5 hours and counting. This is great.

I am seriously considering deleting all games off my phone and immersing myself completely in reading and self-improvement apps.
As someone who grew up with an intense love of books, it astounds me that this is a difficult choice to make.

Just started watching The Blacklist. 4 episodes in and I've concluded that the profiler is completely out of her mind. Oh, my job requires me to come within an inch of dying horrifically EVERY SINGLE DAY? Sign me up.
If it were me, I think I would just get a different fucking job.

Doomscrolling is so much nicer here than fb. There's no "buy this shit", distracting me from distracting myself. Five stars, highly recommend.

Thank you, Netflix, for the reminders, in the form of documentaries, that cruises are always a bad idea.

And for the 1,759th time in my life, I have come to the realization that nothing has gone according to plan. I am devastated. Who knew one wrong decision (I was making what I felt was the best decision I could have made, with the choices I was given) would derail fucking EVERYTHING for years??

I'm having a moment of realization that I have spent the past three decades creating a very complicated life for myself, getting in my own way at almost every opportunity, making terrible, impulsive choices, and leaving very little time to turn it around.
Is this... is this my midlife crisis?!

This sums up last night's night shift... only nothing was actually fine. I will shamelessly drink a beer on my patio when I get home, and I don't care what the neighbors think. I. Don't. Care.

The purge continues.
Amazon shopping app and streaming services... gone. Instagram... gone. Shein and temu... gone. No more social networking revolved around advertising. No more frivolous spending.

Quitting FB cold turkey is as expected—I keep grabbing my phone for notifications, more often than I'd like to admit. I miss the serotonin boosts, but not the ads, keyboard warriors, or negativity. It was the right choice; now I’ll focus on reading more books. Got recommendations?

Random weirdo question for the day: Is there anyone else that has had a recurring dream in the past, but it stopped recurring, and you wish you could dream it again because it didn't suck, plus it's like having deja vu, which is cool in a super comforting way?
Just me? Cool.
