Today and yesterday I was able to get lots of rest. Also, I didn't accomplish anything on college, didn't even try :) . This week and next week are really light college weeks. I'll be able to use these two weeks to continue to rest, gather myself, and start to get ahead. I did it. I won. Months and months of fighting. Many all nighters, passing out in the middle of college assignments, countless problems friends needed help with, dad and home life, working and getting close to full time now, college itself, health problems (shaking hands, horrible memory and thinking abilities, dropping stuff, change it heart beat, etc.), people telling me I couldn't do it and I had to stop, many times feeling as if I couldn't go further, and at best bad Internet. All of it, I conquered all of it. Victory :) I've had a time to rest. Now tomorrow, it's time to start getting back on the ball. Just now, I'll be rested and have time.

Finally all done with the Lost (and by extension, all characters) in Afterbirth.
Only took me less than a week too, which must mean I've improved significantly since I did all this in the 3DS-version.

Today was a pretty good day. Granted there was one major issue, but a pretty good day.
On my 4 to 11 closing shift Sunday, my supervisor noticed I always order the cheapest item on the menu. The only shifts I eat on are long ones. Even then, I try to not eat anything because even when it's only $1.86  after tax, a half garlic loaf and really small thing of pizza sauce (no cheaper item on the menu) dad still gets super pissed about me spending HIS money. Some bullshit on me needing to learn I can't afford to eat where I work (he seriously would rather have me go hungry than spend $1.86 of HIS money on food). Anyway, I only order that cheapest thing as a snack sometimes. My supervisor told me to upgrade it to a half cheese loaf at no extra cost Sunday. Much appreciated. And tonight I wasn't even planning on ordering anything but as a thank you for how hard I work, she secretly made and gave me (at no cost) a WHOLE sandwich and chips. I didn't get a snack at work, I got a meal. It felt so good to not be hungry during the rest of my shift. And the sandwich tasted great too! During the meeting Saturday, I was feeling really, really down. They handed out some bonuses and even though I've previously caught supervisors telling the owner how great I work, I didn't get one. It really put me deeper in the hole. This helped me finally get over it. I mean, I have really massive issues asking for anything, and no one ever gives me anything. But she did. I had good food, and someone did something for me. Both very nice
Also, spent a good amount of time with my mutts. Man I'm going to miss them.

Gee, it did turn into a true rant. Fairly positive one at least

Got access to Stud.io BETA yesterday!
(for those who don't know, it's a LEGO design program)



...Although, of course it's far from finished and I had to make a Bricklink (origin site) account, but once it IS completed...
I'm fairly sure it can replace LDD.

I've never been a too big fan of babies/toddlers.
Still can't say I am (I don't hate them or anything, I just don't really understand them), but I just caught myself doing something I thought would never happen.


I've spent an embarrassing amount of time on YT today, searching for videos of babies making their first important decision in life:
Which (usually Gen1) starter Pokémon to pick.


And the joy it brings to my cold empty heart as they pick Squirtle/*Gen-appropriate Water type here* is indescribable.

I got a "new" computer chair, which was actually a spare one sitting around. But it's in good condition compared to the others in the house. My butt feels better already. :D

I got a 2 in 1 tablet thingy for a good price today, as well as a gym membership. Now I have access to equipment and will have people around to help me if I inure myself. I bought myself a nice, red dog collar today, the first one that is for me and not one of my dogs. I wore it out to town (the next town over to be exact, can't afford to be recognized). I had never worn a collar around anyone ever before. One guy gave me the weirdest stare XP

Got my brothers sodastream that's just been collecting dust in the basement for the past two years or so.
It sure is nice to no longer have to worry about dragging (empty) bottles back and forth between the store and my cave "all the time" anymore.

Happy burrthday to me! I may still be ill, but hey, I'm 22 now.
I don't feel it though. Dunno what Taylor Swift was talking about. Maybe I need to wait a few more hours. Hmm...

DumbScape idle adventures is like Cookie clicker, except without all the stuff that made Cookie clicker fun.
I like it already.

I've had some issues over the past few months, but I feel as if I have a net decrease in issues/issue severity. Example. I'm here in the college library using one of their computers with headphones on. Anyone could walk by and see me here on TFF, but I barely feel any nervousness or paranoia. Only look over my shoulder on occasion XP
