Sparkles

Reasons I stopped watching movies and started reading encyclopedias as a child. This and the land before time, the secret of nimh…

I spent a really long time thinking the horse died in that scene and it ruined animals in movies for me.

I just don’t argue with anyone anymore. At all. I say what I have to say once, and if they continue to restate their option at me like a fact I just can’t seem to comprehend the infinite wisdom of…I just waddle away.

Apnea by Currents. Love the band, have seen them multiple times in person, and have lots of merch. But it’s an extremely detailed song, and it’s very hard to hear, making it my least favorite. They are a phenomenal metalcore band though.

Psyhub got me through my fieldwork.

I listen to happy music when I’m sad, and sad music when I’m happy. No idea why, however, my brain just wants it that way.

House with a yard. One of the rooms is a sensory room. Quietly donate to causes of marginalized folks. Continue going to work.

So I passed a board cert last year. I treated studying like a job. Work hours/off hours/break times. Phone was away.

I curl up in a ball and imagine little scenarios. I’ve done this for two weeks straight before. Only when there’s nothing to do though.

Front pocket if my pants come with any (they often don’t). Cardigan pocket otherwise.

Not really, I stop in and chat a bit on posts I find interesting. On Reddit I doomscrolled.

Do you know what she likes? I think a lot of “cool” ideas are presented here, however, remember she is still 6, and kids that age learn a lot through unstructured play.

Toys that have multiple ways to play with them, such as craft beading kits and doll houses are stimulating to the brain in more ways, and often preferred by children to circuit building kits, for example. The former is well within your price range, if she is crafty.

I get hit and screamed at a lot…just as a part of my job, and it doesn’t seem to phase me other than the mild inconveniences of injury. I’m sure my brain is a bit wonky. I do take summers off, and I get so bored.

Just aches and pains mainly in late thirties. Don’t stay too sick yet.

Found something one of my caseload kiddos lost and they were very happy.

That is really sweet and wholesome.

I play sudoku, get distracted, rewind. Keeps me busy.

Similar educational and economic status and close in age. Essentially, financially independent and intelligent. However, my “single parent” status quite fairly keeps most people away. So I have given up.

Mine is finding a natural pause and kindly “Ah, darn, I have a (thing to do) but it’s been lovely chatting!”

I wonder what she thinks.

Mark Normand, on the other hand, joked he would bring his wife to show her how good she has it in America: “I want to be like, ‘You see? You think I’m an asshole? Well, they’ll cut your clit off, bitch.’”
