Find a therapist!

Not just any, keep looking until you find the RIGHT therapist for you.

20+ years in and out of the system and I’ve finally found my lady and it’s liberating beyond expression

God, I hate having to terminate someone I like as a person. So freaking draining

Word of wisdom to those who’ll hear it;

Third day of newly increased mental health meds dosage is NOT the correct day to forget to take them in the am.

You will have a rough day and possibly even run your mouth a bit more than usual

Raising Cane’s:

Someone please explain the hype to me. Am I doing something wrong? Some secret menu item I need to add? Because I find them to be marginal and overpriced, at best. I just don’t get it

My god, if I survive this boy to his 21st, I may just owe my mother an apology for all my shenanigans. Granted, I remember mine being more fun…..lol

1 in 12 Americans live in California.

1 in 35 Americans live in LA County.

LA is America
not the main issue here but i'd really appreciate it if democratic politicians spoke out in support of big-city life and culture with the same energy and reverence that all politicians have for small towns

los angeles is "real america" and so are all the other big cities the president hates

You all know the song, how do you know it’s love? It’s in his kiss. Bullshit!

Show me a man who hears you’ve had a rough day and has vodka cranberries waiting for you when you get home. THAT’S how you know it’s true love

Got brave (or stupid) and decided to give Del Taco another try this evening since it’s been a few years……had to leave work 2.5 hours early.

10/10 for taste

1/10 for after-effects

0/10 do not recommend
(Unless I don’t like you, then please go eat there!)

Just wanna say thanks to Chik-Fil-A. Every single time I’m about to break down on my moral stance and eat there, it’s a Sunday and they’re closed. Thanks for helping me become a stronger person!

At Pink’s for our tenth, because how else do you celebrate a decade of gay marriage than shoving a footlong down your throat?

How do you invite your 15-year-old child to someone’s home for a week long visit in another state without ever speaking to the actual adults in the home? Further, how do you have him arriving *ON* his 16th birthday and relay a message to “make it special and do something fun for him” but fund nada?

Nothing quite like a major cat food reset humbling you into remembering you’re not 20 any longer….

Holy crap, I’m tired!

And dog food starts in 2 weeks….

Went shopping for “just the essentials” today

I think we did fantastic!

Apparently $10 in wooden hangers is an absolute need which I’m expected to provide, but walking the dogs more than once a day at home is “not my job”

Someone send this entitled 19 year old some help cause he’s fixing to need it

Oh! We made it! Sorry all, life got a little crazy when we actually arrived

But we’re in Cali, safe and sound. We have an apartment. And I start work tomorrow.

Out things get here on 4/8, so “camping” in the apt until then 😂

Yuma!!!!! (That may be the very first time anyone has ever been this excited to be here….😳😬)

Only 235 miles remaining for tomorrow. Should give us enough time to get some basics set up and maybe look around a bit before bed
March 27, 2025 at 10:33 PM
Forgot to check-in last night….we’ve made it to Van Horn, TX. Have roughly 850 miles left. Shooting for Yuma, AZ tonight, leaving us roughly 250 miles for tomorrow and we are done!
March 27, 2025 at 9:30 AM
We have penetrated the great state of Texas! Safely ensconced in a MUCH nicer hotel for the evening
March 25, 2025 at 9:49 PM
Day 1 complete. 600 miles out of 2500 conquered!

Them: we call it the woke mind “virus” to communicate how deadly and awful it is and that it must be eradicated.

Also them: enh, measles is FINE.

Tomorrow’s the big day!!

I’m exhausted already….

My definition of “1 cream” clearly differs from the masses….where’s my caffeine?!!!!
March 23, 2025 at 2:38 PM
Can I just say this has been one of the longest and most difficult weeks of my life? One more day of packing and loading to go
