I saw Streetlight Manifesto w my dude and I didn’t like it. I couldn’t wait for it to end.
The band was TIGHT.
It’s just not my cup of tea: hyper with no groove, screamy-whiny vocal style. Big meh.
The kids love it.
I’ll stick with old school ska. Because I’m old.

My boyfriend’s son tells his mom and grandparents about the cool places we go to eat: Thai, Korean…
I like being his fairy foodmother.

While I worked on the kitchen, I cooked a ham
for dinner. Tossed expired stuff from fridge.
Made broccoli and mac and cheese.
Starting to make this move tangible and less scary.

Yesterday I cleaned out 4 cabinets. Tossed expired items, some 4 years past. Wiped shelves, cans and jars clean. Organized items to have frequently used things easily accessible. Grouped items by function (baking, oils, canned goods).
A contractor bag filled with expired stuff. Made lots of room.

It’s a rollercoaster.
You get a lead.
You do the work because you’re hungry.
They ghost.
You get hopeful about cash flow tools.
But you get rejected because you don’t have W2 history.
Poor people are screwed. Imagine if you lack savings or assets.
Lose a job and you are vulnerable as fuck.

I had a dream I lived in a trailer.
I think a prefab or trailer is fine. They’re affordable. I wish the neighborhoods were nicer, but sometimes you find a good one.
I was looking at homes I could buy on equity from my house, and live without a mortgage.

The US has always attacked its own citizens, rounded up whoever isn’t “white”, and classified activists as enemies. We have a history of provoking war to justify military action, killing civilians in the process, and profiting on the international arms race. None of this is new.

I’m looking forward to seeing friends on my birthday. A nice Italian restaurant with real Italian food (not chicken parm even tho I love the fried). Drinks. I have a cute outfit ready.

You learn how ready someone is when the moment they ask for arrives.

Thinking about what partnership means.
It’s a commitment.
It’s a balance between forces that ebb & flow.
I don’t to resent a lack of balance between today & tomorrow.
Today I’m in need, but tomorrow I’m set.
I’d be pissed if I had to carry someone tomorrow who is reluctant to carry me today.

Fighting the urge to run away from it all. I never again want to be a burden, or weak, or the recipient of contempt and frustration every time something difficult comes up. I’m working so hard already to get through this without help.

The depression and anxiety are so familiar now they feel normal. I don’t like it.
I spend more time than I want thinking about money, survival, my future, retirement.
I think about creative ideas & they die from neglect because there is no space for them.
My hand aches from pounding my fist.

Positives: not being a slave to the rat race, making meals for my instant fam, more art making, more outdoor fun, growing together.
I still worry about my cat being safe, too many people leaving doors open carelessly.

It’s a big deal to sell your house and move in with someone. It’s sad to accept you failed, or at least didn’t meet your goals on time. It’s demoralizing to have been disposed of because you’re over 50 and your expertise wasn’t valued.

Tried to explain simultaneously mourning what feels like failure and loss while embracing a potentially positive new direction.

I’m so exhausted. Building presentations, content, managing schedules, interviews, livestream prep.
The mental load of big changes ahead that scare me.
I just want to go in a cave.

Stress made me numb and focused on survival. I don’t enjoy much.
Today I analyzed scenarios centered on combos of brick house rent/sell, Somerville house live/rent/sell.
Factored in unemployment state and cash burn.
Anyhow the least risk scenario is moving, selling Somerville and renting brick.
