So Real, Esp When It's Something Like "we Need To Talk Later" No, No. You Don't Get To Do That To Me,

So real, esp when it's something like "we need to talk later" No, no. You don't get to do that to me, we talk now, thank you

A six panel comic explaining the difference between short-term waiting and long-term waiting. The comic is titled "Wait Times" and is made by Theresa Scovil.  Panel 1: Honeydew holds up two bubbles. One is labelled "Short-term waiting" and the other is labelled "Long-term waiting". Honeydew says to the audience "There's a big difference between short-term waiting and long-term waiting." Panel 2: Honeydew cheerfully draws on their tablet while the "Long-term waiting" bubble floats by them. Narration says "With long-term waiting I understand that I'm free to do other tasks while I wait. I have the time." Panel 3: Honeydew sits on the couch while the "Short-term waiting" bubble floats by them. Narration says "With short-term waiting I freeze. I worry that if I start anything I'll miss what I'm waiting for." Panel 4: Honeydew sits on the couch looking stressed while they tap their knee with their hand. The "Short-term waiting" bubble starts to distort. Narration says "So if I'm told something will happen soon, but it doesn't for several hours, that's me stuck in short-term waiting, doing nothing, for hours!" Panel 5: Honeydew says to the audience "Being in short-term waiting mode for the long-term is so nerve wracking to me." Panel 6: Honeydew throws their arms up and yells "Think about it! Anxiety constantly rising while you're unable to do anything for hours!"

Having to wait a long time while in short-term waiting is so exhausting. I have trouble not getting angry at people who unintentionally put me in that state.

Today I Hit 1000 Candles For The First Time In Sky! 3 And A Half Years, Many Candle Runs With Friends,

Today I hit 1000 candles for the first time in Sky! 3 and a half years, many candle runs with friends, and a lot of lazy days. I thought I'd always be stuck around ~200-300 candles because my laziness catches me constantly. But I did it :D

Today is a damn cool day

Is it a law that every Assassin's Creed game needs a section that plays like absolute ass???

I'm playing Liberation and trying to navigate around the Bayou is like pulling teeth. Can't walk through bushes, climbing the trees is driving me nuts, I accidentally parallel parked a canoe into a corner and couldn't get it free.

I swear there was a similar "why do you control like this???" Section in 3.

Sometimes the games will feel SO good. Jumping, following a path, running seamlessly. Sometimes I want to bang my head against the wall. I loved 3 to pieces and I want to love Liberation too but good lord the controls are rough

Man, I really have to call my doctors again about Post-Exertional Malaise. Months ago we started the process cause I was trying to fight them that I might have CFS. Ruled out diabetes, found out I have severe sleep apnea. Cool. Treating that for the past 4 months. It's only supposed to take ~3weeks to start feeling a difference. Got a kick of energy a few days in and that gave me a new, slightly better baseline which I'm super grateful for, but nothing since then.

I should not be this tired. I spent 3h doing groceries on Tuesday. Then 7 hours at a little 1-day seminar l thing on Thursday. I spent less than 1 hour today throwing together a roast to set it in the oven and forget it while I went back to sleep. I have slept 60 hours in the last 130. I'm still exhausted. Within the next 2 hours, I will be going back to sleep again. Don't even have enough energy to play games on my laptop cause the set up and teardown is too much energy.

I can't tell if I'm gaslighting myself into thinking I'm less sick or more sick. But surely SOMETHING is wrong. It's driving me crazy

NOOOO MY MEATBALL ROLLED OFF MY PLATR

Update on my journey of learning to like tomatoes:

Today I put tomatoes on my salad! Which is a really big step for me, cause I've thought for years that would just be something that I would NOT be able to eat. Top of the list of "I don't like tomatoes so this is something I will never be able to have"

Well I did it.

And goddamn I'm proud!!

Testing 1 2 3!

This is me learning how to make a Tumblr post, Hello world :D

I'm not very savvy with Social Media, despite being Gen Z. I've never really been all that interested in sharing my life online and I've never really gotten the appeal. I tend to keep to myself a lot IRL and online, and I'm happy that way. But I want to try. Mostly because I need somewhere to talk about my day and just throwing things like "I made mac and cheese, Hell Yeah" at the internet feels like an acceptable outlet.

Despite being Grammatically Incorrect, I tend to italicize words I want to put importance on. I'm not sure where the habit came from, but it scratches my brain.

Also, I really need to turn off Grammarly.
