Oh home life...
My parents are out, so I am watching Mary. Sam is here too, but he doesn’t need actual watching (usually).
Highlights of the night:
1) Mary dropping her chili on the white carpet….however, we made a quick stain-free recovery!

Being a wise person (or at least I think so) and having received my bachelor’s in mental health, I have become increasingly self-aware of why I think the way I do, and why I act the way I do. It’s gotten to the point where I will say, ” I am having anxiety about [this], but I know it’s all in my head...

I just saw a man laying on his stomach in the middle of the sidewalk on 40th quite forcefully humping the concrete. He looked like he was enjoying it…

Today I told my boss, “I quit.”
Her response was, “I am not surprised.”
After 2 years, I am leaving my first job.
