My incredibly mean partner, to my cat: "You have the body type of a potato standing on four chopsticks."

A kid at work completely ignored what he picked out in the store and declared that he really just wanted a watch like mine.

I was wearing probably my fanciest, most elegant watch. Sadly. 🥹

New hobby: sleeping. Highly recommended, especially if you've never done it before.

In celebration of World Toilet Day, I'm going to spend more time on Reddit today.

Been sick so I decided to go through the Star Wars: Dark Forces remaster again, and stumbled upon a washroom with three stormtroopers and one of those three-eyed alien dudes, all standing at urinals.

Sadly, they all got blasted. But hey, there *are* washrooms in the Star Wars universe after all!

I am still sick.

But you have not seen my cat in a while, I realize, dear reader. So. Here you go.

I have a cold, am wearing my oversized blanket hoodie, my cat is on my lap, and I'm playing a wee bit of Fall Guys. Just thought you should know.

My cat dragged her track ball tower thing over to her bed so she can sit in bed and entertain herself by swatting balls around the tracks. She's just like me, fr fr.

Lately, I've just been kinda spiritually stuck. Also stuck in a bunch of other respects. Dunno how else to describe it.

Stuff like the offices don't have as much power for me as usual. I still pray them, but I feel like I'm just going through the motions. Blah.

Baseball season and NASCAR season ending this weekend means that I sadly have to have productive hobbies again, at least until next year.

(I'm actually going to watch tons of classic baseball games and races this winter. Sorry. 🥹)

What people don't understand about disability and chronic illness is how much extra prep and anxiety can surround basic tasks that are mundane for others. For example, by the time I've packed all my emergency kit for simply going to the bank, I can forget to even bring the bag of stolen cash.

We are allowed to dress up on Halloween at work, and I'm scheduled for Halloween. I don't have a costume ready, and no spare money.

Is a 1980s professional baseball player scary enough? I think I can pull off that look with what I have at my disposal.

Wish I had received more injections of Tylenol before I started writing this short story set in 1986, hell-bent on getting every historical/setting detail right.
