    Eh. I have thing going on that I’m looking forward to, trying to keep my head up with things, but right now there’s this issue that’s putting a shadow over everything.

    I try to talk to the person involved, but they’ve kept at it to this point where I don’t want to be around them. I’ve tried to be gentle about it, but it’s like everything I said gets forgotten in a week and I’m the bad person for putting my foot down after.

    I think it feels worse because I know what I need to do, but it’s going to make a lot of things very difficult, and it’s going to take accepting that someone who was very important in my life isn’t the person I knew when we reached that point. That neither of us are.

      That’s good to know… I have the same feelings whenever I go back home from college… like college is good but nothing is cozier or nicer than being able to rest after a busy day

      I wish I could work out like I used to when I was unemployed. I know it would give me more energy, but there is nothing left at the end of the day to invest into me and my health.

      Whatever, who wants to live a long life anyways? Just more rent payments, more scammers, more assholes in my life.

      Thanks for giving your kitty as good a life as you could. Don’t let the end cloud your vision from the good times.

      If/when you’re ready, there are more lost souls to save out there. I wish I could have cats myself, but I am not stable enough to house them. Maybe some day I will foster, but even that is probably to much for me to handle.

        Thank you for your kind words. He lived an incredible life. Working is going to be a lot more lonely without him constantly bothering me to snuggle with me all day.

        When his brother died five years ago, he was so lonely… so we adopted two baby kittens so he could be their mum. He took to them immediately, cuddling and playing and loving them. I think that might have extended his life. They’re a little confused right now with him not moving, but we didn’t let him see his brother after he died, which I think was a mistake.

        About to go drive to his brother’s grave to bury him with his brother so they can snuggle eternally.

      Ever try psychedelics? I fully understand they aren’t for everyone, but it helped me get away from the autopilot feeling in life.

      Unfortunately, most days I wish I could go back to autopilot. Being aware and present can be a curse.

    I feel terrible because I didn’t buy even a card for my wife’s birthday. I just took her to her mother’s house. This was two weeks ago. I am still baffled why I didn’t buy flowers or something. My wife isn’t demanding at all.

    Since the last bout with COVID and subsequent bronchitis, I’m always exhausted and my lungs seem to hate me. It’s slowly improving by the day but that’s the worst bout of COVID I’ve had.

    Fully vaxxed, other than the recent one for obvious reason

      I too suffer from long covid. I remember a time before when I didn’t constantly cough all day. Good times…

        The pain of life does not last forever. We all find peace. For a few, in this life. For the majority, in the next.

        Only 40 more years of my shift left on earth and I can know peace for the first and last time.
