Back to reality

Good news: Empath is going back to work a few days a week at his previous job. He’s first day is Wednesday, a day shift.
Bad news: My ass is going to get a workout Monday with major housecleaning. I’ve been putting it off for a few weeks and, tbh, it’s pretty raunchy around home.
Sucky news: [...]

Family drama

Last night I get a call from my ex, all about how our daughter is failing geometry. She’s not taking notes in class, got caught reading fiction books and is clueless on how to do proofs. My exx is a real yakker and spent most of the call talking to me about his expectations of [...]

Freakout

I had a small flip this morning before hopping in the shower. I’ve been thinking about our situation for a couple days, wondering when the shit is going to hit the fan. Empath’s folks haven’t had The Talk with him about his quitting work. We’ve gotten my student loans into a good place for paying [...]

Arty

I have the urge to draw again. I bought some nice sketching pencils and paper and did some doodling this afternoon. I’m trying to come up with something decent to test out the scanner. You may be seeing uploaded drawings soonish.
A site you need to check out: Badass of the Week. Informative with a kick [...]

From the dark corner of my mind

I saw Good Housekeeping while at the store. On the cover was a woman, dressed as a cat with her face painted, and the woman’s dog. My perverted brain thought, “Do furries (the ones who think they’re an animal in a human body) have sex with the appropriate species of animal?” Such as: if a [...]

I c wat u did der

Ha my prediction was spot on!
The doctor confirmed I have ocular hypertension. No glaucoma (yet). He gave me 3 sets of eye drops and di a new pressure test I haven’t had. It was like putting contact lenses on my eyes. I tried really hard to be still and keep my eyes open. Empath had [...]
