Friday post on a Saturday

[tomakeanoffer]

So, I pretty much slept through Friday.

Whoops.

But I'm alive, I'm still posting this and yeah. So, here's your Friday post on Saturday and I hope no one minds it being a little late today.

~~

This post is for:
• being excited about the things you've done this week
• asking for help if you need it
• venting about anything that might need to be flailed over.
• showing off something cool you've done/made/experienced this week.
• being generally enthused and excited about things that have happened.
• just being thrilled that you survived.

Come drop into the comments and let us know how you're doing and how things have gone. While I may not respond to every comment myself, all of you are free to respond to each other and get encouragement, help or whatever else it is you need. If you want to vent without advice being given, please say so and if you want cheering or tips or anything, let us know that too.

I do ask that if you have any triggering topics, that you mention them in the subject line or first line of your comment. This is just so people can make informed decisions on what to read and keep everyone okay. <3 Thank you so much.

I got up a 11 pm last night, I feel you. Earlier today? And filled out a form for fanworks for their auction. Talked to a friend. Got more to do but like. It's been a hard week. I'm hungry. I'm ALWAYS tired. I might as well eat before I'm too drunk, and go to bed.

*hugs you gently* Yeah, I know the tired feeling so much. I'm sorry shit has been hard and you get all many kindness and good wishes.

I had 3 dates. Which is to say, I scheduled 3 dates, and none of them cancelled on me, and that just felt astonishing. It's the little things, y'know, people actually coming through.

(Ironically, the one I thought of as a sure bet, that being anniversary with Spouse, came the closest to fizzling, because I spent the week having a cold, and probably should have stayed at home, and that night was the worst of it. But as much as I was not up for moving physically, I was not up for deferring mentally. I was not feeling stunning for the other ones, either, but they were important, and a long time in the making, and I was not going to be the cause of them not happening. I paid for it in exhaustion I'm not yet over.)

The unknown long distance situation is still unknown, which is something of knowledge in itself, and I am reconciling myself to what must be. In a way it's all but impossible, but in another it's easier than reconciling myself to what and whom I clearly don't have in my actual geography.

Hope your aliveness progresses well, and wishing you all the best.

I'm glad you managed all your dates! I'm hoping you have an excellent week to go along witht hat and wishing you all the best.

TW for mentions of death, scroll down to avoid - A friend of mine from high school died recently. His family isn't giving any details but he was a kind, fun-loving, queer black man who lit up every room he walked into. He had so many friends that he exceeded the number of people you could add on Facebook and had to make a second one. It will be hard to to go on without him.

I'm reminding myself to think of the important things: spending time with friends and family, adding more joy in my life, reconnecting with my friends. I'm also back into tarot again, so if you'd like a reading head over to my journal and ask for one.

Oh fuck, I'm so sorry he died. If you need anyone to talk to, you have my DMs and email and such, just feel free to poke me whenever.
