The One Battle crowd was giving "just got off work and it was the worst day ever and I'm going to be a problem about it" 😂
Absolute nightmare
You might be onto something there! If nothing else I can use that thought to not dwell on every weird thing I've said while trying not to be weird because if we're all doing it no one noticed 😂
Yeah same here! I feel, like, extra anxious that I'm going to say something that doesn't make sense or come across in some way that I'm not intending. I don't mind being weird per se... until it makes things uncomfortable. Trying not to become the town hermit 😂
Specifically kind of needing to stay sharp around strangers and casual acquaintances. Obviously I'm fine around my good friends...or as fine as I've ever been
For any remote workers (or otherwise don't go to a workplace for whatever reason) who also don't drink or don't drink much, what do you do to get more non-transactional interaction with people so you don't end up becoming "too weird"?
Church is a no-go & my neighbors are not an appealing option
As long as we're in "a mood"
I feel like a teenager again!
Emus are the most terrifying animals by far.
Seems I have run everyone out of the room with this afternoon's selection...
Will do! It's very short. I'm a sucker for mannequins coming to life!
Paperback copy of Night Of The Mannequins by Stephen Graham Jones with a Half Price Books receipt sticking out of it
Reward achieved!
Oh also I didn't get a lid for my coffee drink so I have to try to pretend to be more responsible than a toddler with spillables. I deserve a stop at half price books after this if I succeed.
I pretend that getting pedicures is self care for me but truthfully my stress is elevated the whole time as I try to make sure I'm following their directions & being super polite while a massage chair shakes my insides. Today I've added a spicy Mayan mocha to the mix. My feet will look nice though.
Might have been preferable given that nothing happened, the cats would have rather not spent 30 minutes in the carriers. But yeah safer to be conscious and in the basement for sure!
Tried a new prescription sleep med last night and was wide awake until 4am. May not have helped that I took it 20 minutes before a tornado warning but nevertheless I won't be trying it again. Guess it's a zombie on the couch Saturday.
One thing about me, I'm going to try a theme slush every time (unless it's coconut)
Eight of swords tarot card from the Kacey Musgraves tarot deck. Eight swords are caught in a spider web on a rainbow and pink background
You may feel tied up in your current circumstances with no clear path forward, but the real culprit may be your own limiting thoughts. Try to look at things from a new perspective. Bounce your thoughts off of a trusted outside party. See if you can't find a creative way to get where you want to be!

I used to work in a sports bar in Lawrence KS, home of KU, so I have a bit of college basketball rabid fan PTSD. I like the idea of liking a team that no one around here has strong feelings on 😂
Another friend suggested the Suns as well... another fun logo a good color scheme, I'll check them out!
Yeah why can't they wear that always??
Well their logo is boring but black and purple is nice 🤔
It did not occur to me that I might get a guy in the jersey of a team he's no longer on but since all the guys are just guys at this point I guess I'll try being a Miami Heat fan? Pretty cool logo, occasionally they seem to wear a very fun jersey design.
For reasons that are a mystery even to myself I've been thinking about getting into NBA basketball, but where does one start? How do you pick a team when there is no local, none of the mascots move me and the color schemes are all mid? I've decided to let this "blind box" figure choose for me.
This is my favorite celebrity interaction of all time even given that in the same evening Dave Grohl told me about the time Nirvana visited Stull Kansas to try to find the gates of hell. Single most interesting day of my life I imagine.
Just listened to a 2hr 40min podcast about The Germs so now I'm going to spend the rest of the day wistfully remembering the time Pat Smear enthusiastically introduced himself to me unprompted.
Leaning into the weird is the only way I know unfortunately 😂😂
