EGG FTW!

It is what it is and I don't know what it is. Otherkin- I identify as an otherkin identifying as a furry fart identifying as Peter Griffin.

I love Montenegro and want to return. Maybe even run away to live there…

there is carnival music faintly playing somewhere in my house.

i’ve walked through the whole place and can’t find a source

it isn’t louder in any one spot

it is just evenly, eerily faint

carnival 

music

Does anyone know a good cathedral version of Ave Maria? I just heard the song in some game and remembered how beautiful and sad it is.

[egg-ftw]

This is probably the version you heard as I've not heard this song in any other game.

[poncheek]

Bird just shitted on me. Thankfully it wasn’t big and I could wipe it off. Believe it or not, in Russia it’s considered a good luck sign.

Feeling a bit better

But yesterday was very bad. I cried at work more than once (thankfully when alone). My thoughts were spinning and very bleak and I thought about suicide. When the mind goes to suicide (I don’t intend to ever do that by the way) but when the thoughts go there, the powerlessness, the hopelessness, the lack of joy, the sense of being unimportant, that things will only get worse, that there’s nothing to look forward to, that i’m losing my job, that the world is a mess, the lingering feelings of rejection…Yeah, it makes sense that my mind might go there.

But thankfully last night, I managed to dig myself out of despair by realising that these are just thoughts. That thoughts aren’t reality. That thoughts come and go and can change. That the thoughts aren’t me, they are just my thoughts. It’s all rather…an internal storm that warps, what is.

[egg-ftw]

Well done for getting out of that hole. I rarely manage to get back out of a hole on my own, I just lay and wait for the feelings to pass and they always do, eventually.

I want you to know that I would miss reading your blog if you went away. Even though I don't know you and don't interact very often, I still have a look now and again. And I bet I'm not the only one. Something about feeling alone in the world, about nobody being interested in our thoughts. I don't know about you but I throw up my thoughts on social media and just assume nobody reads it. It's kinda isolating. But I see your posts. I read them sometimes. And so do other people. You are heard.

Weird Fish Jacket!

When I lived in Cornwall, I wore so many Weird Fish t-shirts. Down there, they are super popular and also expensive (becuase they are in high demand there. People love them).

Today, Marina and I went to the next town where there is a massive shopping centre. It has every brand you can think of, plus some you wouldn't think have a shop (a Cadbury shop!?)

Anyway, we wanted to walk past every shop so that we would know what shops are there for in the future. I spotted a Weird Fish shop and I got so excited. Even in the south west, there aren't many actual Weird Fish shops. The clothes are just sold in every surf shop. So I went straight in and was so pleased to see everything was on sale.

Every. Thing.

I spotted a coat which looked really similar to one which I had to throw away while we were living in the Balkans last year (we ran out of room in our cases and it was looking kinda scruffy anyway. Also it was summer. Why did I take a non-waterproof coat for a summer tour of the Balkans!?). The Weird Fish coat was £30, down from £60. After all the Immigration and wedding stuff, we don't have much disposal income at the moment. But I am also kinda desperate for a smart jacket so I talked myself into buying it. I got to the til and told the cashier how I'd missed Weird Fish since moving away from Cornwall. She said that it is the only Weird Fish shop in Scotland and.... The coat is actually £18!!

This day was a success.

I like shreddies

[egg-ftw]

ME TOO!!! They are awesome, right!?!?

[valleyoflights]

I was 1.70m when I was 17 and i never measured myself again cause i thought i won’t grow taller BUT i am taller, im 1.73!!! And i love it!

[poncheek]

Awesome! People grow up until 25, but I don’t think I grew any more from 16.

When I’m taller than others it feels so great. There is something cool about towering above others. I always wanted to be tall.

[egg-ftw]

I've read that these contraptions can add a couple of cm. But I think it only lasts for the day. So you'd need to use it every morning for half an hour 😅

All the time I just look at other people and try to understand what they feel. Maybe I’m dumb and panic for nothing. Maybe I don’t understand how things work. Other people seem to be fine, it’s hard to read on them. Especially stewards. I look at their faces because “they know things”. But they were trained to seem calm whatever.

[egg-ftw]

What do they know? You make it seem really ominous.... 😲

Impressionists made such a huge step in painting. They didn’t like always the same earthy and dark colors of museum paintings. They didn’t use dark paints, and brown. They preferred plain air and spectral colors. They brought light and color to art. They broke accepted laws of painting, and did everything freely and how they liked it.

[egg-ftw]

Some might say they left an...... Impression.

I’m at that weird stage now right before I get back to sleep after waking up after only 3 hours sleep. It’s quite unpleasant and conflicting. On the one hand, I’d prefer to make the most of the day and just get on with it now. But in reality, all my muscles still feel tender from not enough rest and my mind is running at half speed. If anything, I’d be a hinderence to myself and everyone around me. I’ve been laying here for 3 hours already, bored waiting to get back to sleep so I can waste half the day by waking up really late. I’m feeling a little queasy and also hungry but far too tired to make anything. Mostly, I feel incredibly uneasy and anxious but also calm. Being tired can do really odd things to us human folk ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[poncheek]

What time was it at? I feel very conflicted in such scenarios too. I turn into a monster if I don’t get enough sleep. If I don’t get enough sleep I feel physically sick most of the time.

[egg-ftw]

I woke up at around 4am and started feeling sick at 7. I finally got to sleep at 7:30 and woke up feeling tired at noon 😫😃
