got a free haircut (with a lovely apprentice!) and brought some hair home to donate to charity. i’ve always wanted to donate it but i rarely ever get haircuts and somehow i’ve always thought my hair was too damaged to donate. a huge win!

i have gone from one to three impossible crushes since this post! at least it’s keeping my gay brain busy but man how i wish one of these would work out (one’s impossible (two is dreary three is company), one could be a thing but unlikely, and the last one is the most likely but most ~inappropriate)
in other news i might have a ridiculous crush that will/should probably never happen bc of reasons but yay to making up fake scenarios in my mind x

thoughts going so fast from “i feel loved. people care.” to “they’re just doing that because they’re taking pity on me”

update i mentioned the possibility of a reduced work week - for Depression(tm) reasons - at my performance review and tomorrow i have a call with my manager, probably about it. i think i’m anxious about it because i’m gonna have to open up a little bit and also what if it’s not possible at all
i think the solution would be a schedule accommodation in my tech job (as in, a four-day week) so i get an extra off day a week to get the creative juices flowing. but that’s not gonna happen in probably years

to be fair i also think i really miss working in translation. those 3 months working in video game translation/localisation/qa were probably my most enjoyable job because i could put my language skills to use and get kinda creative too. too bad that was a zero-hour contract

cannot quite believe i’m heading to london tomorrow to see old friends. both meanings: sondheim at the gielgud (saw the gala last year, decided it was a one-time thing, and then got lured by cheap under 30s tickets), and some of my friends whom i haven’t seen in over 10 months, or even a whole year!

broadway people deleting comments on their repost of their bring them home video + blocking people over being sent educational posts on how we should also hold space for Palestinians who are mourning. this reeeally doesn’t look good

update: i lost my keys in the void between the floor and the lift. perfect ending to an already overwhelming evening!
family gathering tonight (aka my least favourite thing). wonder if they’ll have remembered i’m a vegetarian (even though it’s been at least 8 years) and made something that i can eat too (not like last time. great to be an afterthought as always)
