brennan dm + jakob pc is giving an absolutely wild energy that's doing things to me i cannot quite put a finger on

You know when you just hit a point?

Where everything just seems to be *that* thing that is one step beyond manageable?

And crying is the best thing I am doing. Because what I want to do is scream and throw a plate across the room. (And you think I'm joking but I have in the past screamed so hard I've wrecked my voice for a week. And I have definitely almost broken a plate, but the thought of clearing broken china thankfully overruled that impulse.)

So instead I'm just quietly crying and taking deep breaths and trying to figure out some good anger management techniques.

Because I've been here before and I know that none of the things that are bothering me are the end of the world but right now it feels like they've just piled up like a stack of lorries in Kent at the Brexit border and one tweet was enough to do it.

And I'm going to be fine. I know that because I'm writing this and as I write I feel calmer. But I wish I didn't feel this way this morning.

I don't need to scream or break anything. That won't help anything and it will cause annoying consequences to myself so looking at this rationally it's a poor response to the things upsetting me.

Instead I'm going to drink a glass of water, write down everything I need to do today and then do those things in a calm and orderly manner.

And if I do that maybe the things that are bothering me won't feel so overwhelming.

There. That wasn't so bad.

No screaming?

No screaming.

i went to an animal park yesterday and spent half an hour in the outdoor parakeet room and was swarmed by like 300 parakeets as though i was their mother (heaven on earth???), today i got a bunch of fresh apple cider, pumpkin cinnamon donuts, apple cinnamon donuts, banana bread, pumpkin muffins, and fresh jam from a farm nearby, friday i have a date with the cute girl i have been seeing, and the air is CRISP with fall

Good things:

when cats yawn

when cats look at you and blink

when bunnies flop over

every animal that can ear flick

when dogs are so excited and happy and jumpy they can barely walk

when your your pet gets really close to your face and nuzzle

when snakes bury themselves and only their little heads are sticking out

when hamsters' cheeks go poof!

when otters play with their stones

penguins and their wibbly wobbly walk

When big cats are just like regular cats

when they do that curious head tilt (humans do that too and it's adorable!!)

when cats hug the object they cuddle with

when lizards do that excited shuffle

when cats do the butt wiggle

when flies clean their heads

when bees bump into flowers

when pigeons look at you and you feel like they would understand you

Sleepy owls (sleepy birds in general but owls especially)

that photo series where they put waterdrops on spiders' heads

Feel free to add!!
