My Precious
I don’t have much to talk about today, but the featured pic? My new set of acrylic marker pen thingies… I spent an hour labeling them with the included numbers, coloring the corresponding box on the card, and putting them all back in the way I wanted… because HYPERFIXATION! So yeah… I’m a whore for…

The “Onus” on Women
I read something so profound this morning that I just… blinked in shock and awe… First, the featured pic is an original I took 12-ish years ago when I visited Costa Rica. The flower is in Cahuita, Limón. I do not remember what it is called, it was just so gorgeous I could not pass…

“Should”
So Sayeth the Google AI Mode (tried a new version): The word “should” is not inherently “bad” in the sense of being a swear word, but it is often viewed as harmful or counterproductive in psychology, communication, and personal development. The word can create a cycle of shame, guilt, and unrealistic expectations for oneself and others. …

Avoidant Personality Disorder
So… along with The Boyfriend’s individual therapist’s initial suspicions, my opinion is that he has Avoidant Personality Disorder. I have suspected this for some time, mostly because I like to do research on things and learn the how and why of behaviors and whatnot. I am an Anxious Attachment Disorder type (though not diagnosed officially).…

Bittersweet Purgatory
Well, at least the featured AI pic is cool. So Sayeth the Google: Purgatory is a Roman Catholic doctrine describing a post-death process of purification for souls that are not yet perfect enough to enter heaven. Souls in purgatory are in God’s friendship but must be cleansed of attachment to sin before they can reach God’s presence. This…

Monday Mark – 2.5 & 3.0
2.5 – For Last Week’s MM: I actually ponder “trust” and all that entails quite frequently. You see, The Boyfriend broke my trust as early on as last October, though I didn’t know the full extent of it – especially the “wtf is going on” part – until this past February. The consequences of realizing my…

Gamer Nerd
Soooo… in my listless existence yesterday, I decided to watch my last streaming video I posted while I reached out to friends and inquired at playing some video games and updated the 🍴 Fork Knife (Fortnite lol) – which took foreeeeveeer. Finally finished that and was joined by 2 of muh frens (Nashi and GenGen)…

The Down Side
H. I. Triple L. The Downhill Slide? Sorry. I’m late posting today, the motivation has flown away into the vast beyond. After the shenanigans with the former anti-psychotic and all that entailed, I’m glad to be off it, but… I wonder if it wasn’t ALSO helping with motivation. I stopped taking it because of the…

Moab
On May 1st, 2013, I set off on a solo 2-week bike trip to visit Moab, UT where I was born. Hard to believe that was 12 years ago. At the time, I rode Zuki (2003 Suzuki 800), my second bike. I traveled from my little town in Arkansas to Kansas City, staying with a…

EMDR
So Sayeth the Google: EMDR, or Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, is a psychotherapy treatment that helps people heal from trauma and other distressing life experiences. It’s based on the idea that the mind can naturally heal from psychological trauma in a way similar to how the body heals from physical wounds. EMDR therapy involves eight phases, including…

Stars & Planets
Went on morning “Walkies” with The Boyfriend. It’s just now 5am, but the weather was perfect. Caught a nice picture of the moon, starts, and I’m assuming a couple very bright planets. I don’t know much astronomy, but The BF said one is probably Jupiter. He’s a nerd (and I like that). Yesterday evening wasn’t…
